> It states that a function on the natural numbers can be calculated by an effective method if and only if it is computable by a Turing machine.

The article at the top of this thread is specifically about properties ("The Generalized Archimedean Property") that real numbers do not possess.

There's also a little bit of slipperiness around the use of "AI" vs. "AGI" - you could easily argue (and people do!) that we've already achieved "AI" for many specialized domains. It's the General bit that seems to be the sticking point, and that this article focuses on.

If in doubt, take it. better be safe than sorry, especailly since colon cancer usually takes time to became really bad and can be treated rather easily when caught early. Also agree that 50 is too late. Case in point, I had colon cancer when I was 28. Turned out well, but 6 months of chemo therapy is nothing I want to repeat, and I had the easy therapy.
This could be never ending. But I'd like to say that factors like tax rate progression (higher tax if you earn more), marital state, children and location (where you live in Switzerland) have a huge impact on the overall tax burden. So comparing 2 cities with very specific input variables will lead to very wrong conclusions when applying the results to make a statement about differences between two countries.

Side note: Including the significant deductions for payments into your retirement fund seems problematic to me, as you will get that money back at some point. And then there are more factors that have a big impact, like church and wealth tax.
Surely having big train stations with massive car parks just outside towns will fit well with car culture.

My other idea is high speed trains where you can take your car with you, like eurotunnel but faster.
The line from creator to consumer has become increasingly long and tenuous. This can increase efficiency (knitting your own clothes is slow and the capital required for a clothes factory prohibitive), but it also means that the learning required to improve things is something for specialists, and not an everyday person.

I think the wonder of software, at least at one point (80's to early 2000's), was that you were using a thing that you could also improve - it was a short path from consuming web sites to creating them, for instance. The clever youngster described in the article could easily look at something and think "I can make this better" and learn how in a practical time frame.

I'm not sure that's still possible now. It's still easy to make a 90's website, but building production-quality work is increasingly specialized.

It hasn't really materialized, but this was part of the early excitement behind 3d printing - finally, when you saw a plastic widget that could be made better, you could try it out on your own, cheaply and quickly!

It probably doesn't help, either, that our most valuable assets are controlled by cartels and monopolies.

If you want to build a home near decent jobs, you will find doing so defaults to being illegal, and you need to beg for an exemption to be allowed to do so. We allow owners of homes to vote whether to allow building more homes (making them effectively a cartel).

If you want to produce software for phones, you need to give a cut to the two big manufacturers, or risk irrelevance. The existing players have such big network effects there's very little room for new entrants to the market.

If you have a clever idea for an invention, and want to use it, you risk inviting extremely expensive lawsuits from huge companies who have coopted the patent system to show they have prior art for nearly anything you can imagine, and have worked to capture the courts deciding these cases. It's not completely unlike a cobbler's guild shutting down a clever new shoe design that threatens incumbents.

What does the clever young person with a good idea do now, aside from try to win VC in an incredibly crowded and competitive market?

Actually it doesn't.

That's why Apple has been building out their search engine for the last few years.

Just like with Maps at some point it will be good enough and they will push an update to Safari to use it as the default.

The strategy representation could also be rationalized as the Mars actively positioning their forces near most efficient transfer routes between points of interest. There seems to be relatively few places in the Belt and outside where anyone would want to go to, and guarding empty space where you'd expect no one to pass wouldn't make much sense. So ships transiting from Earth to the Belt would be going through Mars' solar orbit doughnut-of-influence.

This of course ignores that with the Epstein drive magic, one could always trade travel time for going around ie. off-plane. There's plenty of, well, space for that. (Edit: according to the no-stealth-in-space link in a sibling post, one would be seen doing that, and likely get chased for it as being suspicious).

Relative pitch can definitely be trained. And I've heard people with perfect pitch say that when they hear a note they just relate it to a known note.

You and I just know red is red, they might just hear C is C.
As a user of the SBB (Swiss railways) for over 30 years I have had a few mishaps (canceled or late trains, bad connections, etc) but, by and large, I have been happy with what I paid for transportation. It is very reliable and convenient. Something like this could not have been pulled off by a private entity. The government has to run a service like this. I am glad that we did not follow the lead of the UK during Maggie T's time and begin privatizing bits and pieces of a functional system.

The infographic ranks the pandemics by total deaths, but "deadlyness" should be compared by normalizing against global population I think.

After some searching I found https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estimates_of_historical_world_...

Here are their first 7 "deadliest" normalized against estimated global population and resorted.

figures in parenthesis are (total deaths / world population at end of pandemic) in millions

end date - plague - global mortality rate

---------------------------------------------

565 Plague of justinian: 2.27% (50 / 220)

1351 Bubonic Plague: 0.56% (25 / 443)

1977 Smallpox*: 0.4% (500 / 12,000?) [0.8% if assuming total pop was only 6000M)

1547 Cocoliztli: 0.33% (15 / 460)

1918 Spanish Flu 0.27% (50 / 1,840)

1520 Mexico Smallpox Epidemic 0.11% (5 / 460)

2020 HIV/AIDS 0.05% (32 / 7,300)

2020 Covid19: 0.0016% (1.13 / 7,300) (global deaths as of 22 Oct 2020)

I wasn't sure how to handle smallpox, their total deaths estimate spans a 100 year period from 1877 to 1977. Global population increased from 1.33 billion to 5.9 billion people, and over the 100 year period many more than 5.9 billion people were alive and then died (i.e. the 1.33 B alive in 1877 are not the same as those alive in 1977).
Let's assume there is a business requirement that an order belongs to a customer. By definition, this is business logic. If you implement this requirement by creating a foreign key constraint, then you have added business logic to the database. If there is a business requirement to calculate the sum of all wages in a department, and you do this via an aggregation in SQL, then you have processed business logic in the database.

If you are not allowed to do this kind of things, then what is left? Do you interact with your database as if it were just a bunch of VSAM files?

Quite often this can be literally true; you have ownership but not control, because there's too many layers of indirection. You may find your retirement fund is investing in companies that give money to the PACs of candidates you oppose.

> What is fragile? We have had specialized roles for the entire history of society and it hasn't caused anything to crumble.

I'm not a historian but I can imagine that a medieval specialist, such as for example blacksmith, could very much fix his own house (or maybe even build a new one), grow food, take care of animals, make wooden tools, make some simple herbal medicine etc. I'm guessing a lot of he was consuming was produced by himself and his family. Today, for engineers it's the total opposite - we only consume things produced by others, and essentially by strangers whom we've never met.

Regarding fragility specifically, if a major crisis comes (say a war), the desk jockeys, esp. ones didn't have the wisdom to accumulate resources, will fare much worse than someone who's say running a homestead. If they did accumulate resources (provided they don't become worthless by hiperinflation etc.), they will be able to buy the essentials and hope their stash lasts until the end of the crisis.
I know it’s easier to give advice and hindsight is 20/20, but IMO sticking with technical terms in APIs has an added benefit of preventing API from “spilling into” the end GUI (at least without a proper translation layer), in case someone later decides to cut some corners by exposing it as is to the user.

Here in particular, since “trash” is not just a technically imprecise word but also a highly idiomatic one (to North America in particular).

I don't get this "mobile". What you're talking about is "phone" first. People mostly use laptops for school/work, they spend their personal time on their phone.

Saying that the pandemic has stopped people using their phones for this purpose is excuse-making bullshit.
Correction: The revolution happened due to starvation.

Employment and salaries are recent concepts, they have no relevance. A few hundreds years ago the largest single concern by far was to have food on the table. There was no functional markets and no long distance transportation, you couldn't buy food if there was a bad harvest or calamity, there was no food to sale and/or the price doubled overnight.
Has anyone noticed that the comments here are only tangential to the topic of the heading, ie "stable internet on moving trains". Most are on the trains and the country where the trains are located. Not complaining; just my observation.
It's important to remember that revolutions do not produce justice - they produce change.
Tbh a lot of NoSQL databases don't use foreign key constraints. If you have a SQL system with messaging and eventual consistency you have to turn them off anyway.

So in a lot of ways, yes people use databases like they're just persistent memory with indexes.
What are the differences between Appsmith and Retool?

- Multi page apps. We focus on allowing you to create multi page apps that are performant and don't force this by making you create a folder or use nested tabs

- Focused on building a pro-developer experience. Our goal is to make Appsmith closer to an IDE, which is reflected in our UI today. Soon you'll find a debugger and a code editor that will allow you to write code in a comfortable environment instead of small boxes spread out around the application.

- Complex workflows. For example instead of triggering what happens after API1 in an API, in appsmith you can configure this when the API is called in the widget. So when you click a button you can say {{ Input1.value === "" ? API1.run() ; API2.run() }}

We are actively building more integrations and features. Our current roadmap is here: https://github.com/appsmithorg/appsmith/projects
For me too. I'm far less effective when the problem isn't taking over my whole brain. And when I have two problems going on at once it causes large amounts of stress.
So if I'm working on something that isn't aligned with my actual goals - then I have a mind that is constantly flip flopping between the task I'm supposed to be doing, my work, and the task I really want to do.
So I've spent my working life intermittently working on the programming problem at hand and wandering off into 'thinking space' to work on the intellectual problem I'm actually interested in.

In those rare periods where I actually want to work on what I'm supposed to be working on - maybe a couple of times a year - my productivity literally triples.

Respectfully, you're example is just what I'm talking about. Your options are:

* keep everything like it is now.

* repeal all parking and speeding laws so you don't have to give these tickets, some of which will be given in error. Then just live in a world where there are vastly more traffic deaths and no one can drive in urban areas because people just park in the middle of the roads

* do away with the court date and assume everyone is guilty.

What should it be? No one likes shitty little fines but they have to be levied or you end up with worse results.

Also, if you can't afford an unexpected 55 dollar expense, your really can't afford a car. Sorry if that's blunt, but seriously. If you can't afford 55 dollars, you need to radically change how you live not gripe over whatever the cause of the expense was. And I'm 100% of the opinion that this should all be refunded when you prove your innocent...
Framasoft is a French association.
F-droid is one of those projects that could really do with more recurring donations.
They are extremely unobtrusive about their donations.
One of the devs actually writes on his homepage [1] that he would like to work more on google free android, but is currently looking for funding.
But apart from that there's just a few buttons on the homepage sidebar.

I recently heard that these folks are running the entire operation mostly on goodwill, so I just took the time to look into it a bit.
They have about $110 of monthy recurring revenue on OpenCollective [2] and about $750 monthly recurring on liberapay [3]. That's not even one minimum wage salary. That's nothing.

They received big donation of 10K they got from Mozillas Opensource Speed dating session at FOSDEM this year [4] which is great. It's not recurring though from what I can see.

BUT: for being the one project that people (me included) point to when the question of a more open mobile platform arises, having the entire infrastructure (build servers, hosting, code, not to mention someone supervising the whole thing) be done by a handful of volunteers on a shoestring budget doesn't seem right.

Edit: I am aware there are many other open mobile projects and I love them to bits, but they are nowhere near as complete an experience as AOSP + f-droid. Personally, I don't really think of android (even without google and with f-droid) as a free platform, and I don't think that will ever change. So by all means, also donate to Mobian, UBports and all the others. :)

At one point they seemed to be bona fide certifications of actual high skill levels (or at least in-depth knowledge of related products). But then their value degraded, and quite rapidly.

> a developing country struggling with desertification or disappearance of drinking water or floods will likely not look better in a few decades. Capetown or other places may not exist in a few decades.

This is categorically wrong. And it's hard to know what to say when all evidence is against this.

As a side note, to a specific case you mention, the life expectancy in Capetown is the largest in the country and continuously improving.

Even in the fantasy world of the 'Media' where it might run out of water, in a few decade their lives would still be far better than now.

It's worth noting that the "Kubernetes External Secrets"[0] project from Godaddy is now supplanted by "Secret-Manager"[1].

I've been using Secret-Manager and it works very well.

The authors of "kube-secret-syncer" mention "[other solutions] lack either in security, caching or flexibility".

When it comes to "secret-manager", although I can not vouch for its security, the codebase is very small and probably easily auditable.

It's also very flexible. It supports "SecretStores", currently AWS, GCP and Vault out of the box, and it's easy to add more.

Not sure why "caching" is mentioned in the mix.

I'm surprised they decided to re-invent the wheel instead of improving secret-manager.

Even apart from that Google may be the default search engine on mobile Safari but you can change it (I'm set to use DDG) so Apple may send the vast majority of searches to Google - but not all.
Hope is fueled by depravation. When someone is experiencing hunger, cold, loneliness, sexual unfulfilment or lack of a sense of meaning, the possibility of improvement in those areas can be an extreme force. This can cause people to be willing to face severe risks to improve their situation.

This is what makes "hope" so dangerous, since the risky things people are willing to do can be quite destructive to themselves and others.

If people are already content, fear tends to be stronger than hope. This comes with its own downsides, of course. People become passive, and society becomes stagnant and eventually corrupted due to lack of rejuvinating forces.

As you say, a balance is needed. Some needs must require some positive effort in order to be fulfilled. But if only the most anti social and ruthless get their needs fulfilled, society breaks down even faster.
I've been eyeing them as well, to bad they don't seem to offer per-day alarm settings.
