Not OP, but I don't think the fear is that AI will take over the world and enslave as all. Rather the other way around. Imagine you can create an artificial consciousness. You could then proceed to cause this AI a tremendous amount of suffering, by submitting it only to whatever input it is that it considers unpleasant.
This experiment could then be scaled up on a level unprecedented in history, and it would be possible to submit billions and billions of AI:s to effectively eternal torment.

Why? Any reason. Perhaps as revenge on an AI that has acted against your interests, perhaps as a bargaining chip ("if you don't do as I say, I'll create a thousand exact copies of you and torture you"), perhaps just because - because hey, it's not like the world lacks psychos.

[edit]: Ah, I see OP answered while I was typing. Oh well :)

True. But this math presumes atheism. If there's an eternal afterlife, 12-billion years is also a "divide-by-zero problem".

So the whole conversation sort of boils down to "is this it?"

From the last couple sentences of the abstract:

This could lead to a recommendation of 1000 IU for children <1 year on enriched formula and 1500 IU for breastfed children older than 6 months, 3000 IU for children >1 year of age, and around 8000 IU for young adults and thereafter. Actions are urgently needed to protect the global population from vitamin D deficiency.

So 8000 IU for adults

You're talking about the USA banking system, which is pretty much stone age compared to everyone else. (paper checks? really?) For example, in EU the requirement for banks to open up APIs to everyone is coming in force next year, a bit closer than a million years - and it's not happening because of competition from blockchains, it was put in force (before blockchains boomed) for reasons of consumer rights and restricting anti-competitive behavior by banks.
Yes. Furthermore, the assumption that a core being capable of a maximum of x uops/cycle means that the core actually executes x uops/cycle when running a workload seems really far-fetched.
This is the most meaningless comparison you could possibly make. By this logic Pentium 4 is also better, because it had 3.8 peak GHz, SMT and could do 4 uops/cycle.

In reality things don't work like that. First of all some of the uops can only be loads, others stores and other branches. Second, you have factors like branch prediction, cache latency, branch mis-prediction penalty that plays a huge role on performance.

I am yet to see a workload that can saturate 6 execution ports, even with SMT.

In the real world Centriq is better in performance/watt, and is even better in perfomance/thread that an SMT thread on an Intel Skylake.
I’m upvoting this comment because it would be a shame for the excellent responses to lose their context.

Wow, never felt so connected to a hn reply. This is so similar to my experiences using PyQt, so it probably describes the experience of a lot of other devs out there.

We made a MVP using Electron but had to ditch it because of performance issues. PyQt seems like the best alternative, but the pain points you described were hard obstacles in the beginning.

* We gave up on making Omaha work, after some wasted weeks, and are using pywinsparkle to autoupdate on windows.

* The QSS feels buggy all around, the "border-radius" property is one of the simplest examples of that.

Would greatly appreciate some open-source solutions, examples or simply some blog posts of best-practices and how you are managing these pain points. :)

> Technically, you can have all those advantages with Qt/QML

GTK+, too. There was a big uproar several years ago when GNOME tried to anoint JS as the "official" language for GNOME app development. They eventually backpedaled, and overall their story for JS today seems to be technically decent but thoroughly undocumented.

Keep in mind, this was all before GitHub announced Atom and (what was not-yet-then called) Electron. Imagine if the GNOME folks had used that head start to commit themselves to the original decision, instead of reversing. They might have managed to capture the mindshare that eventually poured in Electron, there'd be a straightforward migration path for DOM-based UIs to go "native", and GTK+ and GNOME apps might've been successful outside the increasingly niche space it occupies on the Linux desktop.

I like your “everyone here is here ally giving you the right advice”. At the same time there is lots of contradictory advice.

To me it’s clear that there are lots of possible scenarios with lots of possible “right” decisions. Without more info, i doubt anyone can give better advice than what’s on this forum.

Certainly a professional should be able to give better advice but only after they get more info on the specifics.

Good luck!

Indoor tanning is associated with higher rates of skin cancer: https://www.cdc.gov/cancer/skin/basic_info/indoor_tanning.ht... I suspect outdoor tanning is as well.

Nothing he writes supports his "theory" that the universe would be better off without sentient life as this is the sole purpose of the universe to exist altogether, so in essence he wants the universe to cease to exist???

Anyways I completely disagree with his premise that life should not happen because of "bad things" in fact life happens not only in spite of but in fact did happen because of "bad things" like the first cell replication!!
Broadly, my understanding is that a major change in skin tone is 'worth' about 15 SPF, so tanning would fall somewhere below that.

For a fixed amount of sun exposure, spreading out the duration is better both to establish a tan and to allow more time for skin recovery. But there isn't really a case where tanning increases safety, because you get the tan via exposure.

It's like saying pilots who practice a lot are safer; for any given flight it might be true, but cumulative risk can only rise.

Thats how the law work. A copyright owner go to a judge and say "The accused sold work based on my copyright" and the accused has to bring up the GPL as proof that they have permission, or they argue that the new combined work do not include any copyright-protected elements of the original. Its a grey area by design.

Linking technology itself is actually rather irrelevant to the legal questions that a court general ask in defining copyright. FSF happen use it as a bright line in the sand on where they will enforce the license, but any author can make their own decision on that matter. Game companies has for example gone after mods that inject itself through windows libraries, arguing that the mods purpose and existence is dependent on the original game and thus created a derivate work.

There was a historical case when a person legally bought a painting and cut it into several pieces only to stitched them together into a mosaic. The court judged it as a derivate work and thus requiring additional copyright permission from the author.

As with other gray areas in copyright, derivative work also have semi-exceptions. Compatibility is one. Since there is multiple different C standard libraries, it would be hard to argue that a program is specifically a derivative work of one. It would also be very easy to demonstrate the works independence by simply using a different standard library.

PyQt brings a interesting question but in the end I doubt it would be that much of a gray area. In theory you could make a program that is only compatible with Qt but don't actually depend on it, but in practice I suspect most such program do not start, operate, and function if you remove the Qt parts. In such cases I expect the accused will have a hard time arguing that the final work when used has no copyright-protected elements of Qt.
Looks like a residual network (ResNet) feeding a Monte Carlo tree search (MCTS) solves the strategy optimization problem.

A critique is that the game model (rules, pieces, movements, legal moves) is still bespoke and painstakingly created by a human being. One next step would be for an algorithm that develops the game model as well as the strategy and the I/O translation. E.g., use Atari 2600 Video Chess frame grabs as the input and the Atari controller as the output. After experimentation the algorithm creates everything: the game model (chess, checkers, shogi, go), the strategy for the game, and the I/O processing needed to effect the strategy with the available inputs and outputs.

Another anecdote... I also take mesalamine (as Delzicol in my case), and take 3000 IU of Vitamin D (along with supplements of calcium, B-complex, and some others). I almost never have flares.

However, I can't get a good colonoscopy - my GI doc says the prep is always bad, even if I extend it for an additional day. He attributes that to a chronic simmering inflammatory state preventing things from cleaning out well. That puts me at a much higher risk of colon cancer, and so I'm also doing Entyvio infusions prophylactically.

Yes, it was modern, it maybe still is. Doesn't really care about resolution or window size, with crazy detailed system-wide configurability; set it up once, and all apps that use it look exactly like you want them to. I don't know much about GUI toolkits, other than that most apps don't resize much other than lists and seem very limited that way compared to even basic MUI applications, but I think that MUI kind of puts the modern web and "user agents" to shame, especially if you consider how old it is.

>Isn't much of the middle ground between the status quo and "supervillain territory" fairly close to outright racism and genocidal propaganda?

In effect, yes.

A true "negative utilitarian" fully accepts even the "pinprick argument" whereby a paradise would not be worth creating even if it only required one person suffering a single pinprick.

But value systems, in theory, could exist somewhere in the middle. The only difference between this and historical genocides it that, because of its motivation, it would be attempted as painlessly as possible.

I once heard an interesting utilitarian argument that genocide is not worse than a random mass murder of an equivalent body count. Random mass murder may actually be worse because it leaves a lot more grieving survivors, whereas genocide kills much of the people who would be grieving.

Utilitarianism does bump up strongly against human moral intuitions, but we already know this from lots of thought experiments: utility monsters, the repugnant conclusion, trolley problems, the pinprick argument, etc.

Good reason spans generations, cultures, and languages. Passions don't age or translate nearly as well.

Hume's formulation treats reason as a phenomenon existing entirely inside of a mind and subject to individual passions.
The problem in this case is not really "not enough money" in an absolute sense. To use the fast lane in a floating price system, you need to outbid the rest of the people. IE it's a function of income distribution.

You'd need to solve inequality. That's a great thing to do, but meanwhile we can just fix fast lanes separately. ...just in case inequality still exists in 10 years.
If you're looking for performance, don't go with Vivaldi, at least if you use many tabs.

With many tabs (>= 100 or so), it becomes really sluggish. For example, opening a link in a new tab can take approximately five seconds. Chrome, which it is based on, does not have this issue. Chrome is however unusable (with many tabs) for other reasons (lack of lazy loaded tabs essentially causing a DoS for many minutes when starting it, at least on Windows).

Long time security researcher here... most smart companies do not bribe, they simply hire , post exploit. An employee or even consultant under NDA can’t disclose very easily.

Inflation is a monetary phenomenon. As long as you are paying for UBI through taxes rather than by printing money, there shouldn't be any overall inflation.

Certainly there will be price adjustments: the prices of some things will go up while others will go down. But that definitely wont "offset any benefit".

Besides, a leak can happen without a big centralized repository - a flaw in the software used to generate and locally store these keys could be exploited, or a flaw in the generation algorithm itself, or any of a number of things.

I don't think they even know what communism means. They just want everyone to be taken care of. Children want to be taken care of by their parents. Communism is when government seizes control of means of production. There are not many businesses that would be better ran by government than by private citizens with skin in the game. Only institutions where profit motive is not helpful, like prisons, should be run by government. I am against private prisons, but for private almost everything else.

I have seen multiple studies indicate adding lanes does not help w/ traffic, and actually makes things worse.

Is it simply assumed that more roads = less traffic?
> If you're refuting his first principle, are you really even talking about the same issue?

To apply his theory to his own ideas, if they lead to or even support suffering (infanticide, racism, genocide, supervillainy), wouldn't his memes also be better off stillborn?

In that way, I'm making a meta-critique. So it's "talking about the same issue", yeah. Assuming the issue is "what do you think of these ideas?"
Hating people and life has always been popular with philosophers. Socrates' last words: "don’t forget to sacrifice a rooster to Asklepios". He's saying life is a disease and death the cure, warranting a sacrifice to the god of medicine.

It doesn't matter what you call it. What matters is the policies of the people who the young people in the article are hoping to elect. That's Bernie, and the Danish welfare state.
Let's assume that overall, this does not make the road any more or less efficient ( i.e. the same # of product, i.e. people and goods, still pass through the highway stretch per hour ).

For those whose $time_saved_in_traffic > $40, they now have a more economical option.

Imagine a business that bills out labor at $100/hr and offers to pay the $40 toll + $10 extra per day if the employee can and is willing to bill another 30 minutes. Employee is better off ( they effectively spend the same amount of time "at work" plus and extra $10 and likely slightly less gas money ). Employer bills out an extra $50, assuming 20% of that is markup over labor cost, this is an extra $10 in their pocket. The government gets an extra $40 (minus whatever the base toll is) to reinvest elsewhere.

The downside is that the remaining lanes ( those who cannot justify the cost of the fastlane ), will end up paying more in slightly longer commute times if the remaining lanes are now more congested.

What society should be paying attention to is how the efficiency of the road overall improves.

If there is open ( i.e. wasted ) capacity in the HOV lane, opening HOV lane to more traffic will improve efficiency in the road overall.

If the additional revenue can be reinvested to improve efficiency, this should improve things for everyone overall.

If there are no ( or negative ) efficiency gains, then those forced to ride in the mainstream lanes will bear the net cost.

tl;dr; Focus on improving the overall efficiency of the road.
