So, what’s the solution?

How do you think Facebook should deal with this? If Facebook-funded research is suspect and nobody else is able or willing to fund it (why should someone else fund soemthing for Facebooks potential benefit, when Facebook are rich, and if someone else is funding research for Facebooks detriment, then I would say its equally suspect), how should such research be funded then?

How can you show results of the research in a way that you wouldn’t consider as “weaponized”?

I’m not a fan of Facebook and am quite suspicious of them, but I’m also not sure what they can do in this particular situation that we would find satisfactory,

They could tap into the power of crowd-intelligence. It's probably somewhat easy to forge some processes to oursource certain support-problems which need low human interaction.

Something they do with Recaptcha already and IIRC at Google Maps. They could sell Youtube Premium to some thoudsand people and let them instead check a handful videos per day for some cases of copyright infringment and such. Just let them be the final fonrtier of sanity in cases where the machine is weak.

It's often not all that hard to disguise one as the other. I worked for a guy once who was drowning in family wealth and all he had to show for it was a failing business.

After years of losses that almost nobody else would have been able (or willing) to sustain he made it into a moderate success.

Outwardly, at face value, he's doing pretty well, until you count the decade of losses which nobody talks about.

Another friend is a moderately renowned documentary maker. Again, facilitated by family wealth. Outwardly, the appearance is of being successful, which cost a fair chunk of family wealth.

I think in both cases, family wealth drove something akin to an obsession to appear successful, which they largely achieved and nobody mentions the uncomfortable facts about how they got there in polite company.

Usually it's around 30GB. I play on PC and have to remind all of my party to update the night before. Each update seems to only come with small changes, and the total game size only increases by ~5GB usually. So they're either recompressing previous assets or changing stuff that can't be patched in along with new content. These updates usually happens every week/every other week. It's insane. I think all of the previous CoD:MW titles combined isn't as big as this one alone.
In terms of revenue globally, the top five are: AT&T, Comcast, Disney, ViacomCBS, and Fox. The are mainstream media oligopolies in most countries these days, but the beauty of the internet is that independent journalists and voices who have been shut-out and banned from the corporate-establishment fold like Ralph Nader and Chris Hedges can still find tiny soap-boxes to speak truth to power since almost no one else is doing it. Then there's people like Jimmy Dore who will never get taken seriously by the establishment because he doesn't have the wealth, pedigree, or entitled rich-dbag attitude to be let into their club.

Yes, he could be a president with reliable support from the senate and the house. But that said he still managed to reach very far.
Yeah, that’s also my take. Some texts are a mere introduction to a much deeper process that should happen inside your head and there’s no way to accelerate that. The way I like to think is you can change your input bandwidth (reading speed) but can’t change your processor clock (brain assimilation speed).

It doesn’t invalidate people that read at 2x normal speed, it just depends on the kind of book you’re reading. I’m able to listen to some books at 2.5x but it’s always the same kind of book: non fiction, business related, those books that in the end you think it could be a blog post rather than a 500 pages book.
> So I would argue you could measure the amount of unity a leader tries to create.

That’s a nice one. Yet do you think then Hitler might be a good leader? (not a joke). He united the white German population in a time of great economic disarray - in both Germany and Europe. Maybe we should measure unity and cooperation with other countries? Global solidarity
> The question is, what might be some examples? What are some problems for which the time or space complexity of the best known solution has decreased over the last several decades to the point that the above statement would be true of them?

All trigonometric functions.

It is a common source of confusion that none of the modern SIMD instruction sets for x86 contain instructions for sine or cosine. The only instructions for them in the CPU are the FCOS and FSIN ones for the obsolete x87 FP mode. These should never be used, because the software implementations provided by your C library are both faster and more precise.

The reason the CPU instructions are worse than what you can write is that back when they were added to the CPU, the fastest known way of computing full-precision trigonometric functions in hardware was not fast enough for practical use. So instead, the instructions were implemented as approximations. Then, after some improvements in known algorithms, these approximations were improved to be somewhat better and faster. However, this caused compatibility issues because FSIN on a Pentium (or a 486? not sure) does not actually return same results as it does on a 386. Learning from this, the trigonometric functions in x87 are now forever frozen to their old, slow to compute and imprecise approximations.

However, since then a much more accurate and faster way to compute sine and cosine in software has been discovered, and every halfway decent language and math library now uses it.
We just switched to Intercom (from manual). If there are better suggestions then I'd also like to hear them - email seems like a space that has a lot of players and none very good.
I do not buy into this argument. Finalizers are generally non-deterministic, regardless of implementation. Sure, sometimes that causes issues, but that is not a good argument against having them.
Customer service at scale, for many products, turns the product from profitable into a severe loss.

"Learn photography from someone who couldn't tell you the camera her assistant operates for her".

If you had a couple of hours with Paul McCartney teaching you how to play a guitar you wouldn't want to waste time getting him to teach you how to tune it. If you had a few hours with Da Vinci you wouldn't want him to spend the first half an hour on mixing paint. The same is true for all the Masterclass courses. If I could spend some time with a world-renowned expert in anything I don't want them to waste time teaching me the basics. I can get that anywhere. I want to know the thing that elevates them above everyone else.

Most photography courses have the opposite problem. When a course is basically "Learn what an F stop is and use the rule of thirds for everything and then you'll be an amazing photographer!" it's often not teaching people what they want to know. People already know how to use their camera. When you pay money to take a photography course you want to know how to compose an incredible picture.

Masterclass is not about teaching people the basics. The expectation is that students are already knowledgable to some extent, want to become a master at their chosen skill, and want to learn from people who have perfected it.
This is a good example of why learning from a master is not necessarily a good thing. Liebowitz has no doubt pressed the shutter and fussed over lenses a lot in her her life, but she's at the point where she has transcended those details.

However, as students, we need to learn about those details ourselves so we can cross the chasm and make it over to her side. So for nearly everyone, it would be way better to save some money and just read Light: Science and Magic if they actually want to learn how to take a descent picture.

If you look at a basket of well-being measures as opposed to raw GDP it's hard to argue that Trump has done a good job.

Of course Covid has had a big effect. But there were many policy options for handling that, and Trump - and his far-right equivalents in other countries - reliably picked some of the least effective ones.
>According to research on the ‘meaning maintenance model’ of human reasoning, surreal and absurd art can be so unsettling that the brain reacts as if it is feeling physical pain, yet it ultimately leads us to reaffirm who we are, and sharpens the mind as we look for new ways to make sense of the world.

I'm not sure I 100% understand your question, and it's also hard to respond without more context.

Many Delphi apps back in those days were very lazily slapped together, with thin layers of code (or none) on top of whatever queries got the job done. There are performance issues, security issues, correctness issues (in terms of: does the app allow you to do some things that should not be allowed). There are also meta-level issues that came into play, as anything that did not fit into the out of the box patterns was so outrageously more expensive to develop that companies opted away from it, and in many cases UX suffered.

On the other hand, we have now overreacted in the opposite direction, with many business apps having empty layers of code that do nothing except pass on the exact same message to the next layer, because, well, "that's how it's done in the real world", or something. Tons of boilerplate code get created that never end up adding any real value. Other than this specific example, there are plenty of YAGNI violations.

I prefer something of a balance between the two.

It isn't. It's reality. It's actually naive to think that news organizations are trying to produce ethical, truthful news free of bias and conflicts of interest.

Pick any news organization and go read its history. Who created it and why it was created. No news organization was created to produce ethical, truthful news free of bias and conflicts of interest. They were all created to push a political/economic agenda - aka propaganda.

I think this is an unfair characterization and borderline misinformation. Medication can be net positive given severe symptoms. Every person is different, and medication for psychological issues should not be a first line of defense, but it can be helpful and potentially life saving.

When you make a blanket statement like “medication will turn you into a zombie”, not only are you wrong, but you could be turning people away from a potentially life saving treatment.

Marketing Created the Most Important Meal of the Day: Propaganda Bacon and Eggs
Antidepressants have nothing to do with opioids. Almost none of those who are still on the market even have the slightest addictive potential. In fact, even products which only had very minor such potential have been withdrawn, even though they were much milder than drugs on the market such as benzos or opioids.

Also note that opioids are depressants, though that is not an antonym for antidepressant.
This is probably the biggest thing I wish was easier to do in Rust. You can make "newtypes" by wrapping the value in a tuple (that gets compiled away), but it's a fair amount of boilerplate or macros to make the newtype useful. Once you have what you need, it's fine, but it's even less convenient for exploratory programming ;-)

No, it isn't. Anyone who has been involved in corporate decision making knows that different teams thinking for a long time is absolutely no guarantee of a successful outcome - or even of a barely functional one.

Companies make stupid mistakes all the time. When you're in the trenches there's a certain amount of group think, and issues that may be obvious to outsiders may be invisible and/or suppressed by internal politics.

Celebrity teaching such as Masterclass reminds me of unsubstantiated self-help teaching promises. It's all about marketing, about luring customers with supposedly easy-to-achieve results such as "Rewire your brain in 7 days" or "Learn how grand master chess players think in 12 easy lessons". Or - God forbid - "Teach yourself expert Go/Rust/Python/C++ programming in 21 days".
