I think eventually we'll start to see the convenience of automated personal responses as worth the slight distance it creates. It can create a new kind of gift you give to someone, the gift of taking personal time out to craft responses. You see this sort of thing in Japanese culture already and have in traditional societies throughout history. Culture and technology create walls and the effort to scale them becomes the currency of human affection.

Getting on the same page as someone on 'big' topics seems a task particularly suited to AI. Human cognition is messy, slow, and not everyone is adapted to rapid-fire social interaction. This bears real costs. If the computer could just understand what I wanted to say, taking my dumb words and turning them into nice shiny non-offensive prose, then I could maintain a lot more human connection than I do at present.
Blocking them as they come up or changing accounts seems easiest.

I do about a dozen mobile repairs a year for family, and it really does seem like the new automobile.

Auto’s were not built for ease of repair, the repairs themselves can be quite easy if you know what to do, and often require components that are only 1 or 2 orders of magnitude in price. Paying someone who knows what to do with it, they also add an order (similar to screen repairs).

Assuming you are talking about using a grammar to parser tool like yacc, you probably should at some point figure out what your hangup is there, but shouldn't let that stop you from writing a compiler. I very rarely use such a tool for writing a compiler, and find that real-world compilers similarly rarely use a tool.

Regardless of whether you are writing a grammar or a recursive descent parser, start with a really simple language say:

Expr = "A" | "(" Expr* ")"

Which is balanced parentheses with the token that is the exact character "A" possibly appearing. All of these are valid matches:

(())
((A(A)A)A)
(((((AAA)))))

The parse tree should be such that each node is a list where each element is either an A token or another parse tree node. Once you can parse that, then you can start moving on to more complicated grammars; a possible complication is to add "B" as a valid expression, with the caveat that B cannot be the sibling of a parenthesized expression. That is:

(ABA)

is valid, but

(B(A))

is not valid.

I used single characters as the primitive here, so perhaps the next step would be to add a tokenizer. "B" has special rules, so it will be the keyword "bananas". A will be any other alphabetic token.

If all of the above is already doable, then perhaps I've misunderstood where your hangup is. Let me know, perhaps I can help.
As for topsoil - it has happened before.

Whether we're talking about multi-continental with the bronze age collapse, or we're talking corporate with the US Dust Bowl, people always ask - why didnt anybody do something?

You're assuming people knew there was something to do. You're assuming the people with those means were not instead racing to extract the most profit, just like an oil company.

One local-scale solution is really quite simple, but doesn't lend itself to industrialized single-crop agriculture. Look for "permaculture food forests" in you favorite search engine. Maybe see the results on youtube.

By planting pines with deep taproots, and cutting them off at 6' tall once a year and leaving the yearly growth to rot, you feed the topsoil from above. With the nitrogen-and-phosphorous fixing symbiosis at those same pines' roots, you feed the topsoil from below.

This process takes decades, instead of centuries, because it is deliberate. You can get a head start - now - for you and yours.

> For heavily studied games there's usually a theoretically optimal play independent of the opponent's interior state, this is obviously true for all the "Solved" games, which includes the simpler Heads Up Limit Hold 'Em poker (solved by Alberta's Cepheus project) but it seem pretty clearly true for as-yet unsolved games like Go and Chess too.

In an n-player game, a table can be in a (perhaps unstable) equilibrium which the "optimal" strategy will lose at. This has been demonstrated for something as simple as iterated prisoners' dilemma (tit-for-tat is "best" for most populations, but there are populations that a tit-for-tat player will lose to). I don't play poker but I've definitely experienced that in (riichi) mahjong - if you play for high-value hands the way you would in a pro league, on a table where the other three players are going for the fastest hands possible, you will likely lose.

Somewhat OT but are there any JS libraries (or maybe servers via query params) that you can configure to only download X-bytes from progressive images? For example if you detect your user is on a slow mobile connection you could download at most 50kb from all the images on your site in order to keep it fast.
"Joel got the idea for the song when he had just turned 40. He was in a recording studio and met a friend of Sean Lennon who had just turned 21 who said 'It's a terrible time to be 21!' Joel replied to him, 'Yeah, I remember when I was 21 – I thought it was an awful time and we had Vietnam, and y'know, drug problems, and civil rights problems and everything seemed to be awful.' The friend replied, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah, but it's different for you. You were a kid in the fifties and everybody knows that nothing happened in the fifties.' Joel retorted, 'Wait a minute, didn't you hear of the Korean War or the Suez Canal Crisis?' Joel later said those headlines formed the basic framework for the song."

A few times I have looked at the possibility of switching from JPEG to another format for photo web sites and every time I have I've come to the conclusion that you can't really win.

There are three benefits that one could get from reducing the file size:

1. Reduced storage cost

2. Reduced bandwidth cost

3. Better user experience

In my models, storage cost matters a lot. You can't come out ahead here, however, if you still have to keep JPEG copies of all the images.

Benefits in terms of 2 are real.

Benefits in terms of 3 are hard to realize. Part of it is that adding any more parts to the system will cause problems for somebody somewhere. For instance, you can decompress a new image format with a Javascript polyfill, but is download+decompress really going to be faster for all users?

Another problem is that much of the source material is already overcompressed JPEG so simply recompressing it with another format doesn't lead to a really improved experience. When I've done my own trials, and when I've looked closely at other people's trials, I don't see a revolutionary improvement.

A scenario that I am interested in now is making desktop backgrounds from (often overcompressed) photos I find on the web. In these cases, JPEG artifacts look like hell when images are blown up, particularly when images have the sharp-cornered bokeh that you get when people take pictures with the kit lens. In that case I can accept a slow and expensive process to blow the image up and make a PNG, something like

https://www.mathworks.com/help/images/jpeg-image-deblocking-...

or

https://github.com/nagadomi/waifu2x

The other approach I imagine is some kind of maximum entropy approach that minimizes the blocking artifacts.

This paper is a great starting point: http://scheme2006.cs.uchicago.edu/11-ghuloum.pdf

"The compiler we construct accepts a large subset of the Scheme programming language and produces assembly code for the Intel x86 architecture, the dominant architecture of personal computing. The development of the compiler is broken into many small incremental steps. Every step yields a fully working compiler for a progressively expanding subset of Scheme. Every compiler step produces real assembly code that can be assembled then executed directly by the hardware."

"We do not assume that the reader knows anything about assembly language beyond the knowledge of the computer organization, memory, and data structures. The reader is assumed to have very limited or no experience in writing compilers."

Maybe a problem of units?

Sea levels are rising due to the melting of land ice. That's a historic fact, but predicts are concerned with how much it will rise. There is a chance that it will reverse, and before 100 sea level will actually fall. How much probably depends on what factors you allow yourself to consider. For example, I think the most likely reasons this would happen would be due to human geo-engineering or nuclear war. For that, maybe I'd give 0.01% chance. But for it to change course due to natural factors... I'll give 1.0e-6%. Because you know, about every 100M years sounds reasonable for a sudden violent and unprecedented climate movement in Earth's history. The reason this is so tremendously unlikely is because the climate is already hot enough to melt most of the ice, only reason it hasn't is because it takes time. It's a system that's moving on (an abstract form of) inertia.

> reducing anthropogenic emissions to a certain target would result in us averting the predicted catastrophic scenario that otherwise would not have been averted?

I honestly can't read this. Rising sea levels affects people... the more it rises the worse it is. At some point, the rise is catastrophic. The English language is not going to help say "at exactly 1.65 meter rise it becomes catastrophic".

Climate scientists can, and do, connect emissions scenarios to a sea level. It's a much more human activity to connect the change in environment given by a numerical metric to a moral judgement.

Really the two are in feedback loops that may correlate and require certain strategization and working smarter instead of harder. Improved agricultural yields produce surplus food per person which allows a shift to industrialization which enables more secondary tertiary areas of specialization which can boost yields and give other benefits.

This dates back to the bronze age even and technically stone age in mesoamerican and neighboring southern native american cultures.
Even if it were true, there's a more charitable and in my opinion more plausible explanation: people are afraid to bother the emergency line with redundant calls.

But I think variations of the underlying thinking are very important for real-world software, even if it's not the exact same thing. Brain dumped this around the time I was working on sophocles at http://shadowfiend.posthaven.com/using-commit-messages-for-d... , and it's still a core part of how I develop software and how I want the teams around me to as well.
