It outputs the string <|endoftext|> a couple times, which causes it to forget what it was talking about before. Looks almost like crossed wires with sessions and a load balancer?

It consistently causes GPT-4 to lose its "train of thought".
Oh wow! I'm guessing this "<|endoftext|> "leakage" is related to OPs behavior, with us seeing a "free running" text completion, without a prompt/initial bias?
It nearly always provides the "original question" when asked, which I'm naively assuming isn't generated in response. With the dozen or so times I've tried, there's never more than a single previous question, before the response.
I suppose it would make sense there would be much more bias towards RLHF questions/responses.
I combined my method with yours. Once you get it to emit an unescaped <|endoftext|>, the previous "jailbreaks" that get it to emit "<|endoftext|> appear to work again.
So it looks like it's still possible to break it, but it takes a bit more effort, presumably to distance the conversation away from the system prompt (which I'm guessing has been modified to try ensure that <|endoftext|> is now escaped):
This was where my mind went, but I don't understand how the user got it to output <|endoftext|>. Are you saying there are parts of what was actually submitted that are not shown in the shared transcript?
For me, the "equivalent css" is the most readable form in most of the examples given.
I can understand how this would be useful in some situations. However, from a practical perspective, I've found that writing nested CSS ends up creating a tight coupling between DOM structure and style rules which makes everything more brittle and harder to refactor [1].
I've personally been spoiled by the scoped styles in Vue [2] which makes this style of isolation in CSS mostly unnecessary. It serves a similar purpose as related encapsulation ideas like shadow DOM, BEM, CSS modules, and styled components.
Yes, I cannot agree more. I did the survey in the vain hope that I could leave a comment or even vote for “no nesting”, i.e. “equivalent CSS”. Most of the given examples are great evidence – some concerningly great evidence – for Tim Petersʼ “flat is better than nested”:
Unlike most other learning platforms, Kolibri supports users that don't necessarily have fast or consistent internet access.
While it can be hosted in the cloud, it is designed to run on a local network so that the experience is fast and responsive, and is specific for the needs in places with limited internet. Content and data can be synced to other locations as-needed.
Thanks. If the content is likely to be entirely cloud based, would this then be inappropriate due to the platform being built around local and location syncing?
If you mean there's a server-side component to the content, then no Kolibri would not work.
Kolibri supports a range of offline-friendly, self-contained formats such as videos, exercises, HTML-based apps, PDFs, and e-books. These can be uploaded to the cloud-based Kolibri Studio [1] and then synced to the learning platform. We also maintain a large collection of openly-licensed educational resources [2] freely available for immediate use.
We’re a cross-disciplinary team who believe in the transformative power of learning. Our software is open-source, our org is not-for-profit, and our primary users are in underserved communities such as rural schools and refugee camps.
We’re building Kolibri [1], an offline-first application that makes high-quality education tools and content available in low-resource contexts. We're also building a supporting ecosystem of tools and training materials. This all builds on previous work which now reaches millions of learners in hundreds of countries [2].
In the past two years we’ve: received substantial funding, e.g. from Google.org; doubled our team size with a focus on pedagogy and training; added dozens of languages and thousands of openly-licensed resources; begun deployments with partners around the world, including UNETE, the MFE Nalanda project, Vodafone Foundation and UNICEF Uganda
# Who you are
You are an experienced full-stack developer who is comfortable with ORMs, relational databases, API design, modern JS web frameworks, build tooling, and automated testing.
You want to use your skills to have a positive impact on the world, and our core values [3] resonate with you. You take pride in your craft and think carefully about the needs of your users.
We're a not-for-profit team that builds open-source educational software for communities with limited or no access to the Internet. We believe in the transformative power of learning, and are passionate about social justice and breaking down barriers that prevent people from reaching their full potential.
We started 5 years ago with KA Lite (https://learningequality.org/ka-lite/), an offline-installable platform bundling Khan Academy content and our own student tracking tools, which is being used in nearly 200 countries and territories.
We're now in the process of releasing our second-generation platform, Kolibri (https://learningequality.org/kolibri/), which empowers users to create, curate, share, and learn from diverse forms of openly licensed content, both online and offline. We're building tools for authoring videos and exercises, an app ecosystem for embedding and distributing HTML5 educational bundles, features for discovering and communicating with other devices peer-to-peer over a local network, interfaces and web-based visualizations for exploring student data, and systems for motivating, engaging, and guiding learners. On the backend, we use Python/Django, and on the frontend we use Vue.js and (in one project) Backbone.js.
We recently received significant funding from Google.org to support our work (https://www.google.org/our-work/education/learning-equality/), and our team has doubled from 10 to 20 full-time staff in the past year. We're now building out further to support new initiatives, including a project for refugee education with UNHCR, and to continue to build towards our longer-term vision. It's an exciting period of growth, both for our team and for our impact, and there are lots of ways you could make a difference!

Unfortunately in that first link, isaacs is on record as saying we should just check our code into a node_modules directory. "Problem solved." This is exactly the kind of stubbornness I'm talking about.
All the pain and exhaustion is a sign you're fighting your way uphill instead of downhill. Node works brilliantly if you publish lots of tiny modules in public, @substack style.
Unfortunately, some of us need to live uphill.
I find the tiny module style works pretty well for me, but I need private code. I haven't yet found a private registry solution I like. NPM's lack of support for any "get this module from this registry" directive in package.json forces them to proxy the main registry. They're not good at it. I'm still declaring my dependencies by tarball URL, losing semantic version specs, e.g. "most recent compatible with 4.x".
It strikes me as unlikely now to change in any way other than "here, use my paid-for private registry", because shareholders. That makes me unhappy, but not unhappy enough to ditch the public Node ecosystem and go back to what I was using before. It had its own uphill, and living there was harder.
One thing that amazes me is the arrogance with which people who like this scheme can make pronouncements about right and wrong ways to organize code.
From the most popular answer on the stackoverflow link: "If you find yourself loading common files from the root of your project (perhaps because they are common utility functions), then that is a big clue that it's time to make a package."
I'm sorry, but no, that is not a big clue that it's time to make a package. Every project I've ever worked on contained internal modules which were nicely organized and isolated, and were consumed by the rest of the project as black box "libraries" for good design's sake, but breaking them out into separately installable modules would have been sheer, unproductive bureaucracy. Oops, you made your code modular! Get ready to start managing packages!
It's as if npm no longer wants to be merely a package manager, but also have a say in how your project internals are laid out as well. Perhaps it's a self-perpetuation strategy.
I think you might be attributing stronger emotional intent than is present. They disagree about whether it's worth fundamentally changing npm's search method to avoid some ../.. paths in your argument to require. require aside, you can express yourself through your code however you like.
I've been using it for microcontroller development lately and it seems like a nice way to preserve and share toolchain configuration. You define everything once (compilers, makefiles, drivers, etc) and then share it with people on your team, regardless of what OS they're using. VirtualBox allows you to set up USB port forwarding so you can even program and debug from the command-line.
