That's the theory, but once UBI is a right it'll be easier to demand more than to supplement with a job. The experiments show nothing about the lasting effects of mass UBI. The two main problems that make the experiments meaningless are that they don't impact the whole city, which would clearly drive prices up either making the UBI less useful, or require tying it to a housing-price index which means it'd just go up endlessly, and that the experiments also don't last long enough for these systemic changes.

Further, the UBI experiments don't produce any benefit beyond one-time grants, as seen in other experiments, perhaps even less because the trickle payment doesn't give you the capital to move to find better work or anything.

Lifetime welfare has proven harmful, how will super-welfare be better? If anything has destroyed American cities its welfare ghettos and the malaise and crime that comes with it.

Bear with me here, but I strongly suspect that this is not the case. Because PoS doesn't need miners, it seems the system can transition to PoS at any time and there's nothing miners can do to stop it. So unless the miners also happen to control over 50% of the staked ETH supply, miners don't have a say at all.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong -- I wish Ethereum could only upgrade with overwhelming miner consent. It would check the power of developers to alter the monetary policy as capriciously as they have done so far.

In the video a girl asks a question that he doesn't seem to understand that I thought was interesting but he didn't answer, and she got frustrated about it, but I stopped for a second and pondered it.

It was, if there are inherent limitations to cognitive capacity, does that not mean there is no free will, and therefore that morality does not exist, since morality is predicated on the idea that human beings can of their own free will do things, including things they shouldn't?

When thinking about it I determined that the question is premised on this idea that with any limitation whatsoever free will does not exist. This is flawed. I cannot choose to levitate right now, but it does not mean I cannot choose to do anything. The absence of infinite options and capabilities does not negate the ability to choose to do things that I am capable of. In fact, I'd say it is the opposite, one cannot have free will with infinite capabilities because, as Chomsky put it, taking any form comes with the consequence that there will be limitation, and something without limitation would be without form, "an ameboid' as he puts it, and so such a creature could not make decisions or take any action at all.
I find this a strange thing to ask.

An autist is defined as such by having the following distinct characteristics that make them unique (I have customized each criterion based on myself and my children):
- difficulty in social interactions (with neurotypicals)
- repetitive behaviors, superior memory and highly focused interests resulting in expert level knowledge
- greater sensitivities, physically and emotionally (when compared to neurotypicals.

If I had had a neurotypical child, I'd be worried that I wouldn't know how to relate to them and that they'd have to try much harder to succeed.

My question is about liability, if a person is drunk or high and they drive over someone, they go to prison. If a person is sleeping in a tesla and runs someone over because they think it's magic and will drive for them, who is responsible and will do time?

Your reply is that it's all good because the tesla only killed half the number of people, so your friend or family member who got killed is just a freebie.

Read the underlying study.

What a stretch.

There were proteins and peptides on the parchment from honey, eggs, cereals, sheep, as well as humans and mice.

The human ‘cervical fluid’ proteins, from what I can tell, aren’t unique to the cervical fluid and, unless I’m reading the study referred to in the paper incorrectly, the ‘list’ of CVF proteins came from non-pregnant women.

I’m not saying the parchment wasn’t associated with pregnancy... hell, women today wear all kinds of elastic supports; nothing new about it.

But the scientific mumbo-jumbo is depressing as it reveals how silly these suppositions based on suppositions based on presumptions based on assumptions can get.

For instance, this bit — from the article, not the study (although a similar statement is made in the study) — makes me pull my hair out:

“ Signs of wear on the girdle’s surface suggest that someone felt, caressed or kissed it, according to the study.”

Really?! A worn portion of a dirty 500 year old parchment leads us to imagine kissing or caressing it?!
> So if something I am saying doesn't seem to make sense, or seems "incorrect", well, maybe it's that I am just coming from a very different place in terms of what good programming looks like.

I do think this is probably true, and I know you do care about this! The thing is...

> The code that I write just looks way different from the code you guys write, the things I think about are way different, etc.

This is also probably true! The issue comes when you start describing how Rust code must be or work. There's nothing bad about having different ways of doing things! It's just that when you say things like "since then you are putting unsafe everywhere in the program," when that's empirically not what happens in Rust code.

> Using a bump allocator in the way you just did, on the stack for local code that uses the bump allocator right there, is semantically correct, but not a very useful usage pattern.

Yes. I thought going to the simplest possible thing would be best to illustrate the concept, but you're absolutely right that there is a rich wealth of options here.

Rust handles all four of these cases, in fairly straightforward ways. I also agree that 3 isn't often talked about as much as it should be in the broader programming world. I also have had this hunch that 3 and 4 are connected, given that the stack sometimes feels like an arena for just the function and its children in the call graph, and that it has some connection to the young generation in garbage collectors as well, but this is pretty offtopic so I'll leave it at that :)

Rust doesn't care just about 4 though! Lifetimes handle 3 as well; they ensure that the pointers don't last longer than the arena lives. That's it.

I don't have time to dig into this more, but I do appreciate you elaborating a bit here. It is very helpful to get closer to understanding what it is you're talking about, exactly. I think I see this differently than you, but I don't have a good quick handle on explaining exactly why. Some food for thought though. Thanks.

(Oh, and it is the one you're thinking of; I forgot that you had commented on that. My point was not to argue that the specifics were good, or that your response was good or bad, just that different strategies for handling memory isn't unusual in Rust world.)

You’re right about his academic work. I read one book with Chomsky cited as the author that was actually a transcription of some interviews of him. And then I read a book he wrote and it was a very different style! I find his speaking to be clear and easily digestible, while some of his writing can be very difficult to read.

In the USA our main national automobile highway is called the “Interstate”, because it connected the States into one system. Previous systems were built at the State level. Sometimes we referred to Interstates as “Super Highways”. This Interstate system was inspired by the German “Autobahn”

When we started to connect different independent computer networks, it felt very similar to what the Interstate had done just 20 years before. So the term “Internet” was created.

When the Internet started to hit the mainstream culture in the 1990’s, the comparison to the Interstate became even more useful. “Now you can email between networks such as AOL and CompuServe.”

So people started to play with the words:

Information Super Highway

Infobahn

Smaller companies don't have as developed an IC track. If they have levels you can advance to, great, but eventually if you want to keep moving up in income you'll have to join a FAANG or switch to an EM track.

To be clear, there are definitely a handful of firms that have levels similar to what can be found in FAANG but not many. Also, I should say "GAFAM" since Netflix doesn't even have levels—but that's not as well known a term.

Why would morality be predicated on the notion of free will? That sounds like nonsense. Bad things happening to people aren't going to be erased just because free will doesn't exist.

When thinking about it I determined that the question is premised on this idea that with any limitation whatsoever free will does not exist

Nobody had ever explained to me in any coherent form what free will is. We are always deterministic machines, making decisions according to the law of physics. It can't certainly be random, because it would just be random and we definitely observe people making non-random decisions.

Probably much safer than a motorcycle though. I always found it interesting how we have such strict crash safety testing for cars, but still allow motorcycles despite them being incredibly dangerous. Maybe just because it is visually obvious that a motorcycle is dangerous? Or more likely because everyone would get mad if you tried to ban them.
I looked into the app a little bit and a few things I see that set it apart from the ones I'm familiar with:

- Sync is optional: it is a premium ($4.99/yr) feature that is not enabled by default. Other tools I've used have iCloud sync turned on by default.

- Auto-lock: you can set a password so that some guest user who might be using your computer can't just open and copy your codes.

- Backup code storage: you can store the backup keys in the app. (Kinda strange, since if you have access to the backup codes, you also have access to the OTP itself so /shrug/).

- Keys are availabe: most of the apps I've used do not allow you to see the key after creating the account, but this does.

Whether these are good or desirable features, they are somewhat distinct from the apps I've used.
Probably worth pointing out that the sections on microarchitecture stopped being representative with the pentium pro in the mid 90s. The processor still has a pipeline, but it's much harder to stall it like that.

Political only insofar as they call out the disingenuous nature of their opponents' unopposable slogans.

It's been a lot of years and I really can't remember (how many/if all were shared and other details) because sharing them or not sharing them apparently didn't make much impression on me, but I do still remember breaking down and crying as the shackles of the chains in my soul broke and fell away and turned to dust because of the act of making the drawing.

There was no "all lives matter" until there was "black lives matter" and people wanted to say they don't like the message.

There are multiple opportunities to lose and win in WFH, and it’s the sum of all things which we see; while sharing a physical space may come with productivity boosts, having a large amount of people travel or drive every day is also a negative for productivity.

However much they value the work, want exclusivity etc doesn't factor in.

Of course it does. Someone who doesn't see value in a work is never likely to buy it. Promoting the work to that person is a waste of the seller's time. Offering more generous terms to try to squeeze out an extra sale to that person reduces the benefit of all other sales, and it might not get that extra sale anyway. As a business strategy, it doesn't make sense.
