Humanity now has the capacity to anhaliate all people from the Earth within a year with our nuclear arsenals. Even though Mutually Assured Destruction has prevented this from happening yet, the statistics point to inevitable doom on a long enough timescale. Hell, we nearly wiped ourselves out several times since 1950. In such an environment, it makes sense to push towards interplanetary colonization as quickly as possible.

I might have misunderstood the comment I was replying to. I thought it was ironically suggesting that "climate catastrophe" is being pushed by some due to an agenda so I was genuinely asking who this was and what the agenda is.

At least it's my suspicion I might have misunderstood something since I'm a bit confused by the replies to my comment.
If one of your wing tips stalls, you will have a very fast roll and there is a high probability of entering a spin.

Also if a part of the wing that is far aft stalls, then that can cause pitchup, making the stall worse.

An aircraft with benign behavior stalls so that the nose stays pointing straight ahead with no roll or yaw but it drops (pitch).
I suspect that Starship will fly to space before SLS ever will. I also think Starship has a significantly higher chance of flying at all than SLS.

That is a very far fetched idea.
> MCAS is there mostly because of certification requirements for hands-off stability

I don’t believe this is correct. During testing the MAX was discovered to have an inverted force curve on the stick approaching a stall — as the aircraft approaches stall angle, forces flip around and it becomes easier to pull the stick back (into the stall) than forward (out of the stall angle).

This violates a fundamental airworthiness requirement — commercial aircraft cannot be certified as airworthy if the stick forces invert.

MCAS “solves” this by commanding the stabilizers down as the airplane approaches stall — effectively using the stabilizer to put the forces on the stick that are “missing” due to the MAX’s aerodynamics, ensuring the force curve never inverts.

MCAS is entirely about generating force on the stick to meet airworthiness regs, not hands-off stability. It actually can’t disengage when the pilot pulls back on the stick, as that would defeat its entire purpose re: the airworthiness force-on-stick requirement.

The WSJ kind of muddled things here. The KC-46A does mid-air refueling, and its semi-similar MCAS system is about hands-off stability — compensating automatically as the weight and balance of the plane dynamically changes as fuel is offloaded. The pilot can override it with the stick because its purpose isn’t to provide stick force.

A talk I attended by this same author, in maybe 2010, is what caused me to dramatically decrease my meat intake. His framing was compelling: eating meat is bad for several reasons, but also enjoyable and hard to avoid, so just eat a lot less.

Since that day my intake has easily been < 50% of what it was before, probably closer to 75% less. I just don't eat meat unless I have a good reason to: social gathering/celebration, really bad alternatives, or just a day where my willpower is low due to some other emotional load.

It really hasn't been hard, and is getting easier with things like Impossible Burger.
> We need decentralized communication

> Although Riot has made significant progress in the past few months, there is still a long way to go before it becomes a suitable drop-in replacement for platforms such as WhatsApp or Discord.

The problem with adoption client based on Matrix protocol is clearly lack of the quality of clients and being so annoying for users. I think it also stands true for other protocols like IRC or XMPP. In my humble opinion, clients for all 3 are far behind Telegram or WhatsApp or even BBM.

Looking on commits in repos of various Riot clients, I am not sure if there is significant progress (yes, it's a bit unfair to said that, but comparing to let's say webpack repository, number of random contributions is quite low). For Android there are two versions - Riot and RiotX. RiotX is in early stage development (I'd say it's unusable), while the Riot just gets minor changes. iOS client is OK. Web and desktop client (based on electron) is not as simple as Slack to get start and running. I keep fingers crossed for Riot developers and spontaneous contributors to improve those clients - without good, simple to use clients there isn't any chance for Matrix to be adopted widely as WhatsApp or Telegram are.

Centralization is not really important factor for most of people during selection of communicator. IM is a tool and if it does not do its job properly, people will look for better alternatives. Just, please take a look how many sysadmins/devops switched to Slack from IRC. Please stop writing yet another article how centralization is bad - just help Vector.im, TheLounge.chat or other group to bring such IM client where most of people will be comfortable to use it.

IMO the final paper had too much technical jargon which was convoluting some simple concepts.

This is symptomatic of IMHO the biggest single problem with the world of mathematics today. This discipline should be about developing ideas based on rigorous foundations and logic, which is a useful and important purpose. Once you have understood those ideas, even "advanced" results often seem quite simple and intuitive, and we can take that understanding and apply it to other work if helps us to make useful progress. However, the amount of needlessly obscure terminology, poor notation and just plain bad writing in formal papers make the whole field absurdly inaccessible, even to many who might have no trouble understanding the underlying concepts and important results.

Just imagine what would happen if we tried to write engineering specs or software the way postgraduate mathematics research is done. We'd be trying to debug source code where every identifier was a single character, taken from one of three or four different alphabets, with several of them looking similar enough to mistake one for another, with a bunch of combining accent modifiers on top that were used to fundamentally change the semantics of the program, interspersed with comments by someone who needs a remedial class in basic writing skills, full of technical terminology that is defined in terms of other technical terminology from other software packages, except that sometimes the meaning is subtly different in this context but that isn't noted anywhere on the screen at the time, resulting in needing to spend half an hour doing a depth-first-search of all the definitions only to find that a function whose only identifier is the name of the developer who wrote the second version (because the first person to work on it already has another function bearing their name) is actually equivalent to what a programmer would write as

const DAYS_IN_WEEK := 7

I write this as someone who studied mathematics to a high level and has touched on the field many times since in connection with heavily mathematical software development. It's the worst sort of closed-world gate-keeping, and we could do so much better, but sadly inertia and vested interests are not our friends in this matter.

Yes, it takes a classical computer more time to simulate a quantum computer than just running that quantum computer and checking the output.

But did anyone think this wasn't going to be the case? Quantum circuit solving is just one example of this phenomenon; physically-based rendering is another: it's much faster to stick a camera in a room and measure the resulting image than it is to simulate light transport of the identical scene in the computer using an unbiased rendering algorithm.

I'm sure there are other examples: any physical phenomenon that is "NP-like" will have this property where setting up the (physical) system and measuring the end result after it has "settled" is exponentially faster than simulating the entire system in a classical computer and then measuring the result.

the material isn't the question, it's why they had to weld it together in a patchwork quilt. Elon talked about the next version would simply have rolled coils with a single seam weld (although the cylinders would have to be welded together too), which would be better structurally and cosmetically, and likely lower cost of production. Sounds like they just didn't have the rolling machines to do the job, or perhaps there was an availability issue with the specific alloy.

> A smart compiler can narrow it down to machine size integers then possible.

A smart compiler will be able to narrow it down in a limited set of scenarios, but all we need to do is put an accumulator into a loop to see that bounding an integer is equivalent to the halting problem. Or for another example, should we expect our "smart" compiler to bound y in the following? The bound on x is a freebie.

bigint n(uint64_t x) {
bigint i = 0;
bigint y = x;
while (y != 1) {
i++;
if (y%2) y = y//2;
else y = 3*y-1;
}
return i;
}

Not related to grapefruit but moving to North Carolina for college in 2010 re-ignited my love affair with DXM in the form of Vicks 44 Berry Blast, which was about 300mg of DXM in a refreshingly horrible syrup form factor with 0 guafenesin, acetominophen or any other things that would get in the way of pure rolling.

Coupled with whatever substance du jour that college me was able to lay hands on, DXM was guaranteed to have me stumbling and hallucinating like the true futureless human I aspired to be, for the low low price of $7.65.

So, hats off to the NC state legislature for giving me some cheap thrills through college just outside my dorm room, while the state liquor store was a few miles away. You saved my liver, non-sarcastically, and allowed me to experience first hand the precipice of drug culture so I could willingly walk away from it based on personal exposure.

The GP described the "hype machine" and the implication that deep learning is step to AGI. As far as I can tell, the "hype machine" is real in sense that popular articles describe current methods as steps towards our broad concept of intelligence.

Certainly, someone close enough to the technical process of deep learning will admit that it essentially an extension of logistic regression without any "larger" implications - at least some deep learning researchers are always clear to distinguish the activity from "human intelligence" (and even if a given research never parrots the hype train's mantra, they know it's there and inherently play some part).

But more a minimum assertion of deep learning is that it "generalizes well". And what does "well" mean in this context? In the few situations where data can be generated by the process, like Alpha-Go, it can make a good average approximation of a function but in most situations of deep learning it means "generalizes like a human" - especially image recognition.

This comes together in the process of training AIs. Researchers take data that they hope represents a pattern of inputs and output in a human decision making process and assume they can construct a good approximation of a function that underlies this data. A variety of things can go wrong - the input data can be selective in ways the researchers don't understand (there was a discussion about a large database of images from the net being biased just by the tendency of photographers to center their main subject), there can be no unambiguous "function" - loan/parole AI that's inherently biased because it associated data that isn't legitimate, objective criteria for the decision sought), and so-forth. Some tech people are aware of the problems here to but this stuff is going out the door and being used in decisions affecting people's lives. Merely noting possible problems isn't enough here. These "exceedingly smart people" are still handing off their creations to other people are taking them as something akin to miraculous decision makers.
> an implementation may choose to handle undefined behaviour in some documented, specific fashion

Or they can leave it undefined and not make any guarantees. I do not think that any compilers on any platform makes any guarantee on signed overflow.

Not entirely sure about that. Have no skin in the game but from what I can tell Starship is just a bigger version of the Falcon 9 second stage. FH on the other hand required a lot of engineering investment to figure out how to bolt three F9s together and how to make the software work between all three.

I'm certain it will be a long time until it can get to Mars, but LEO within the next 2-3 years is probably realistic.
