I can second the experience. I write a lot of Common Lisp, and these days it's typed Common Lisp for me. It adds very little overhead in terms of code writing speed, but continuously stops me from making stupid mistakes (like e.g. forgetting a function I'm calling returns a sequence and treating it as a scalar value). My comfort of writing is much better, because I spend less time in interactive debugger hunting my own typos.

> All CRDTs are fundamentally asychronous

I didn't say otherwise. However, Google Docs and WOOT are meant to be used "almost synchronously" (which is why I wrote "almost synchronous" in my answer), in the sense that conflicts are presented to the user almost instantly.

By the way, in the paper you mentioned, the words "synchronous" and "real-time" are used to describe WOOT.

Type hype is real. It almost seems like job-creation propaganda at this stage.

When I judge things, I look at practical outcomes; and the fact is that I produce better software with more features within the same timeframe if I use JavaScript rather than TypeScript and the product in both cases is equally robust. This has been true for me both independently and as part of a team.

With JS, I can write more code and more tests within the same amount of time and there is no drop in quality.

I'm very surprised that nobody else seems to be experiencing the same thing. I've been back and forth many times between the two paradigms and for me it's clear as day.
There appears to be no proof that it was in fact assange who was communicating with manning.

Wiki leaks affiliated? Almost certainly.

Assange? No actual evidence. (that I am aware of)

IMHO this is the salient weakness in the case for extradition. The fact that the same exact argument could be used against any wiki leaks affiliated individual at that time makes it a witch hunt instead of a legitimate legal proceeding.
Maybe half of the US laughably out of touch with this moment in global history.

I’m personally fascinated by Julian Jaynes’ The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind that posits that humans had an innate ability to reason linguistically but that it was disjointed from their everyday living experience until some point in the historical record. Richard Dawkins famously commented “It is one of those books that is either complete rubbish or a work of consummate genius; Nothing in between! Probably the former, but I'm hedging my bets.’.

That's a fair point you're making here! Also "skepticism" that's used to justify believing whatever you want to believe, regardless of what the evidence says. That's a problem.

My reply is something a bit different: I believe news in general is junk food for your brain. The incentives involved in news publishing today tend to go against accuracy and truthfulness, and the things most described are usually the things that matter least - so news ultimately yields a negative value in terms of understanding the world around you. Better to pick a book instead.

But still, I think it does not fully solve the architectural issue or encourage good architecture (though it can certainly help reduce bugs)... In this case you may end up with lots of duplicate instances in different blackboxes which may not be a good thing either.

The point of good state management is to ensure that each instance has a single home. As soon as you start passing instances between functions/modules/components, you're leaking abstractions between different components. Sometimes it is appropriate to do this, but most of the time it's dangerous. Components should aim to communicate as little information about their internal state to other components as possible.

First of all, I would be wary of any solid link between brain activity and high-level brain functions like consciousness. The rigour of some neuroscience experiments has been highly critized in the past [0].

Secondly, even if the finding is correct, it gives no information about which function came first. It is consistent both with the idea that 'consciousness is empathy/actor modeling applied to the self' and with the idea that 'empathy/actor modelling is consciousness applied to other actors'.

In general, it is very hard to guess evolutionary timeliness from present structures where we have no idea of the genetic encoding of the current structures.

Car salesman will sell you anything just to get some of that commission. Not everyone wants to drive an SUV. You make it sound like people will only buy what a car salesman wants them to buy, if that were so we would all be driving luxury cars and severely in debt.

Maybe the majority just prefer SUVs instead. There is a lot more comfort in larger cars. I personally prefer an SUV to a mini van which turns funny in my experience.

I think one can have more views than "everything, including stones have consciousness" and "there is something special about our brains, an element that isn't on the periodic table".

The best explanation I've heard is that consciousness is an emergent property. The components are easily understandable but their complex interactions become increasingly hard to understand the more components you add.

Also, humans love to think they are special. And in some certain way we are. We are a big step of the evolutionary process of life. Usually, once such a big step happens, the first species (group) which figures it out becomes incredibly successful. E.g. the first plants that managed to live outside of water pools could colonize the barren landscape because there was no competition. Usually after such a step, this incredibly successful species then drifts and diversifies into multiple different sub-species and after a while there is a large ecosystem of species. We humans have discovered intelligence and now believe we are special, but in a few hundred years there'll likely be many types/kinds of intelligent structures we've built (not neccessarily our "biological" descendants, but this distinction matters little to life itself, which has a multitude ways of creating "biological" descendants anyways including things that don't involve any descendants at all like bacterial conjugation). Some of those structures we'll regard as conscious, others we won't. Consciousness will also vary in type and form, just how there are different ways for plants to vary in type of form. We are that first moss that colonized the lands. If you told that moss how plants could look like in 2020 (and it would understand the question), it would probably react similarly as people do to the Chinese Room argument.

Ask the same question about color or temperature. Atoms by themselves have no color, nor temperature, but macro scale objects do.

It makes no sense to say an atom has a little bit of temperature.

These are emergent properties that describe the interactions and interworkings of many many individual components.

It's not necessary that elementary particles have a "little bit" of consciousness. They also don't have any temperature, it not "a little" but undefined. It could be that you can only apply the concept of consciousness to sufficiently complex systems.

It reminds me of how some ancient Greeks felt there was a contradiction in 2 being large when compared to 1,but small when compared to 3. How can 2 possess the quality of smallness and largeness at the same time? Perhaps it has some smallness in it and also some largeness? Today we would say small and large are relative terms that apply to two things, it's a function that takes two inputs. They didn't have a solid grasp on concepts that exist in the relations between objects instead of them residing in the objects. I think today's consciousness debate is analogously misguided.

Which is surprisingly (or unsurprisingly?) similar to many approaches in ML training. We train our ability to predict the future (i.e. consequences of actions) by consuming information about things we would have mispredicted (so called novel events, or news).

The danger is that if we only consume newsworthy events, we lose sense of the baseline and start only predicting outliers everywhere. We need to consume statistics or everyday stories from a diverse group of people in addition to news.

Yes.

That's just as reductive as saying the whole thing is degenerating. Plenty of places in the U.S. are moving backwards. A lot of population centers are not though, so it's not fair to say that all of the U.S. is degenerative, but it's also not as fair to say it's only the media's framing.

It is the wealthy and above average earners that already pay most of the taxes in America and some disagree with where the government is spending funds and even what they are taxing (one of the primary causes of our Civil War mind you). Redistribution of wealth has been tried in countries like Venezuela and many places but it collapses eventually when you have a single point of failure. Hell theres Social Security which got basically ruined by the government.

Any kind of redistribution would need to be at the full discretion of local governments instead of a federal body. The amount of power our federal government has amassed itself would make the founding fathers roll over in their graves, or pick up their musquets and revolt.

> Things can be both interesting and not the start of a zombie apocolypse at the same time.

But then you shouldn’t sell it as one. The headline is pretty clickbaity given the reality of things, and sadly this is a common trend. I think that’s OPs point.
Tax laws are what's written in statutes, but it's also how the courts interpret laws and build a body of case law.

Some places have light touch regulation where courts are used as a measure of last resort, and only for the most flagrant offenders, and so you don't get those case law precedents.

Tax avoidance covers a wide range of activity. At one end you have the perfectly normal and accepted tax planning. But at the other you have companies doing weird things with tax law, and we don't know if that's illegal or not until it goes through the courts. Some of the companies we're talking about have huge amounts of money available to fight court cases which is another reason why countries are reluctant to take cases through the courts.

Go-Diagrams is a Golang port of diagrams [1], an Internal DSL for Python. Diagrams (the name of a software project) models cloud IaaS resources as network graphs and exports DOT [2] files that can be processed by Graphviz compatible tools.

Neither Python nor Go are ideal languages for implementing an Internal DSL, compared to say Ruby or Groovy, so the first question is why an Internal DSL vs. the DOT language (or another External DSL) and the second question is whether Python or Go are expressive enough for this use case? I think the answer in this case is that any language that supports Class-like structures can provide a namespace to describe the common resources, relationships, and constraints found in cloud IaaS.

I'm assuming that the DOT language does not have the facilities to add domain specific names and constraints so an Internal DSL is a perfectly reasonable approach even if it generates intermediate DOT files.

You don't particularly give arguments for thinking that insects don't have consciousness though, your points can absolutely get reversed:

1) The step occured somewhere between sub-atomic particles and humans, so why not somewhere between sub-atomic particles and insects?

2) Consciousness is gradual, in which case I wouldn't be surprised if an insects consciousness is closer to a human's consciousness than to a sub-atomic particle's consciousness.

This is a great point. (Un)fortunately we have not had to but this into practice yet so when we do perhaps I will monumentally fail.

Based on my limited (10 years) experience I'm pretty convinced that there is little to no correlation between competence, confidence and compensation.

There are many people for whom work is not the most important thing in their lives. My expectation is that actively selecting for work not being the most important thing in someones life is an arbitrage that is under utilised and will create a much more sustainable company in the medium to long term.
