Couldn’t you just put the use of unsafe as a default and add a feature flag to force the safe (but slower) behavior. Then you get the best of both worlds: those who don’t care get performance for “free”, while those who care can force it when they want.
To me it seems like they bought regulation so that Google and others will have to pay for posting excerpts. This means probably they'll get enough money to keep the status quo and won't innovate. Why would they? Money will roll in anyway.
One of the big advantages of shell is exploratory nature -- you write pipelines one step after another, looking at the intermediate result at each step. Any sort of complex serialization will break this.

This is why in shell, if you want programmatic "stat" output, you use "stat" tool, not "ls". "ls" prints all at once. "stat" has a custom output format, which means you print exact fields you want, so your intermediate results are concise and readable. And since every element of the "struct stat" is an integer, a simple space-separated format works very well.

(that said, I would not mind seeing more tools print JSON or JSONlines. I add this functionality to many of the tools I write, and it is pretty powerful in conjunction with jq)
Agreed with the above, your work needs to be front and center.

We've been using a mutated blend of our own patterns with the ones you mentioned, but you're 100% spot on.

The reason we have a product today with 100% uptime and reasonable tech debt is that we front-loaded the cost of data by making sure we normalize (which is non-trivial in maritime), along with cleaning and consolidation with other sources. We also have our own internal consensus algos that pull multiple sources where possible and pick the most likely.

And hopefully this is an anecdotal data point for anyone, but we've been running a pretty performant system that services 200,000 ports, 50,000 airports, 50,000 crew, 5000 vessels and millions of miles of GeoJSON routes in real-time with Postgres alone. In my experience a well organised relational db can outrun most document stores, in most applications.

The only caveat I'd say (if there is one) is normalization as a hard rule. We denormalize some fields when we need to squeeze performance out of a commonly accessed metric (caching essentially, but through the db which I think makes it denormalization), and it's been quite helpful. Of course you need stronger checks and balances in code to make sure things don't desync, but it can be helpful to speed up large, common queries.

I'll link some of the technical write-ups of how we use Postgres and PostGIS below in [1] and [2], if anyone's interested.

You could ascribe reasonable certainty that folks using the scientific method have accurately modeled the universe, as determined by their documented and repeatable experiments.

I've previously seen people phrase that as "having faith in the beliefs of others," which usually boils down to semantics on what "faith" means: I believe it is likely those people have observed the things they say they have, because of the nature of the scientific community and how these experiments are structured.

I also think we're getting rather far off the specific, original issue: the existence of a god. In my experience this has been the kind of thing a single individual can experiment with and reason around--at least, in all the ways people tend to give evidence for their belief in god:

(1) hearing him communicate with them in some way

(2) seeing him influence the universe in ways they'd expect a god to

(3) believing a god must have been necessary to create the universe due to its complexity/beauty/etc.

You'd contended (please do correct me if I've misunderstood your argument) that the tools I suggested--the scientific method--were incapable of determining what lies behind the observational curtain, which I agree is certainly true: if you can't observe a thing or its effects in any way, you cannot determine its existence. The thing we seem to get hung up on is what we should believe about what lies behind that curtain.

My stance is to take the null hypothesis and assume nothing exists beyond the curtain; at the very least, not a god that interacts with our world and the people in it as the Christian faith claims. In short, "I have not seen sufficient evidence to conclude a god exists."

Your stance seems to be that it is acceptable to believe facts about things beyond this curtain; that we are not in a simulation, that there is a god, etc, framed as having faith in those facts being true, despite observational tools not functioning in this realm.

The tic-tac example wasn't supposed to be an indictment of extrapolative beliefs from experience ("these people have reliably observed the universe before / predicted things / modeled things for years, it seems reasonable to continue to trust their motivations and methods"), just a demonstration of when "I don't know" is a more correct answer over taking a stance when observational tools have reached their limit.

I mean if you sell wow gold it’s taxable. It’s income and taxable at your bracket.

If you use it purchase items in games it’s probably not. Especially if those items can’t be purchased directly. It’s similar to gift cards. Especially if you purchase items from the publisher, who pays tax on the income.

If you start using it to buy pizza it’s on the other side of the line. It’s an asset, and could be potentially taxable as an asset.
Israel at some point was considering setting up a rail track between Eilat and the rest of the country. The main benefit of doing so is that cargo ships could unload and Eilat (red sea) and have cargo transported to a port in the mediterranean sea. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-speed_railway_to_Eilat

That plan was frozen after the Egypt-Israel peace agreement.

I dont think that AI will get close to the vision in GEB. As many said in this thread, what we have is more power and more data to solve narrow problems. One of the point of EGB is that perceived details may aggregate to something larger and form another pattern unrelated to what the algo what initially trained for. True AI will have to find a way around this.

When I was working as an quantitative strategist in a trading firm, I alway made sure that my algos had a ''killswitch'' which required human intervention in case the market did not exibit usual patterns found in the training sets. Skin in the game is the best cure against techno-evengelical optimism.

Also, I had the opportunity to practice zen meditation with a monk who had actual koan training. The idea that computer will replicate that process soon is ridiculous. Buddhist and asian philosophy are, at their cores, anti-aristotle.

"Why don't they just do X" has two interpretations:

1. "This is such a simple solution and I think they're dumb for not doing it."

2. "X seems like a great and obvious idea, but they aren't doing it. Therefore, there must be something they know but I don't, and I'm interested in learning it."

I try to take the second interpretation whenever I see someone posing solutions in that manner.

Clicking [i] in the bottom right corner reveals this is indeed based on OSM data.

Kind of stupid design, as the [i] button is so big that a small always visible attribution could have fit better (just like on osm.org).

This is seemingly one of default options in OpenLayers (my guess based on how often I see this type of attribution). I wonder why people choose OL anyway. Sites using it in my experience have on average jankier UX than those based on Leaflet.
there are always exceptions. my parents aren't stupid. they can do all the basic things with a computer that are necessary to do a non-technical job these days. but they really haven't internalized a lot of stuff that's second nature to most younger people. just this weekend I helped my mom troubleshoot an issue with severely degraded zoom calls. I ran a speed test and determined they were barely getting 5% of the plan speed. I ran another test and discovered the connection had >20% packet loss. the solution was to turn the modem off and turn it back on. I asked my mom how long this had been going on. she and my dad had been living with severe packet loss for weeks and just assumed there was nothing they could do about it.

btw, my work has nothing to do with networking. this is just my workflow for diagnosing connection problems for counterstrike.

My research (automated theorem proving with RL) sits partway between "good old-fashioned AI" and modern deep learning, and GEB struck me as amazingly prescient, with lots of lessons for modern AI research.

There's a growing sense among many ML researchers that there's something fundamentally missing in the "NNs + lots of data + lots of compute" picture. GPT-3 knows that 2+2=4 and that 3+4=7, but it doesn't know that 2+2+3=7. These heart of these kinds of problems indeed seems to be the sense of abstraction / problem reimagining / "stepping outside the game" that Hofstadter spent so much time talking about.

Chess (accidentally) turned out to be easy enough for a narrow algorithm to work well. But I'd be surprised if other problems don't require an intelligence general enough to say "I'm bored, let's do something else," and I don't believe current algorithms can get there at any scale.
For settlements it's fine, like with Bitcoin lightning network. Since this uses crypto.com only now I'd imagine transactions are in CRO for now, then settled via Ethereum over time.
Next.js was announced October 25th, 2016. Nuxt was announced October 26th, 2016. The Next.js team had been developing the framework since about February - and the Nuxt team later that summer. They both shared lots of inspiration and have grown stronger thanks to each other.

We've been using PostGIS' internal storage mechanism for routes and tiles so far. We've attempted to build our own indexing (through quadtrees indexed similar to OSM's), but it's never crossed the performance we get by default from PostGIS.

It's not a bottleneck yet, but I'm sure we'll be revisiting this soon. Thanks for the link! I hadn't found this one yet - super helpful.

It amuses me that the whole reason 2.4GHz exists as an ISM band, is that the band was too noisy to make use of.

Basically microwave ovens came before the ISM band. 2.4GHz is the sweet spot for heating water with microwaves - there's a few frequencies that work, but too high is expensive and difficult to shield, too low requires more power to get the same results.

So this band was effectively "written off" by the ITU/FCC as being too noisy to commercialise. The result is a band where you can do almost anything you want, as long as you emit less power than a microwave oven does. This makes it ideal for local-range applications that don't want to deal with the licensing requirements of 'real' bands - as long as they don't mind sharing it with microwaves. It's the typical story of a lightly-regulated free-for-all.

2.4GHz isn't a mess because everything uses it - everything uses it because it's a mess.
Saying depression is a “temporary change in behavior” is like saying pneumonia is a “temporary change in respiration.” It’s insulting and dismissive and indicates you don’t really care very much about this issue.

Depression kills people. ECT has serious side effects but it is also has proven efficacy and, if administered properly, is never fatal. All medicine involves this sort of cost-benefit analysis and in cases of severe drug-resistant depression, where there is a high risk of the patient dying in the short term, ECT is the only alternative.

You're right, but there is value in the community of accountability that churches provide. Fasting, tithing, charity work, and self-examination are objectively worthwhile, but not things I'm likely to muster up the will-power to do on my own, at least not regularly. It's like physical exercise: easier to get yourself off your ass when you go to the gym with a friend, or join a regular class.

Also, even though I don't really believe there's any "metaphysical hokum" going on behind it, I'm still moved (aesthetically, and -- dare I say? -- spiritually) by liturgy and church architecture. I'm sitting in the same place, while seeing and smelling and saying the same things that people have for hundreds or thousands of years. That's pretty cool, and I always feel better afterwards. So, even if I'm rationally convinced that it's a psychological (rather than metaphysical) effect, it's still worth doing.

I took the MIT AI course 6.034 in 1972 from Patrick Winston. He taught that course periodically until his passing a couple years ago. The 2016? Lectures on MIT opencourseware. I would estimate there was 2/3 overlap between the 1972 and 2016 versions. That course is heavy on heuristics and not big data.

Around 1979 an MIT group lead by Gerald Sussman (still working) designed a workstation specifically to accelerate LISP. It was hypothesized a computer that ran LISP a thousand times faster would revolution AI. It did not. However the two LISP workstations that saw commercial sales did jump start the interactive graphics workstation market (UNIX, C and C++). Dedicated language machines could not keep up with the speed improvements of general CPUs.

On the other hand custom neural chips from Google, Apple, Nvidia (and soon MicroSoft) have really helped AI techniques based upon deep convolutional neural networks. Neural chips run orders of magnitude faster than general CPUs by using simpler arithmetic and parallelism.
It's the classic problem with externalities. Every individual person does the thing that's most convenient for them, society has to suffer the consequences, but since no person individually caused the problem, it doesn't get fixed.

It links to a blog post:

Insanely wordy and very non-specific, but hopefully getting it straight from the horse's mouth is less confusing than reading someone else's misunderstandings.

"Visa is piloting the capability with Crypto.com, a Visa partner and one of the world’s largest crypto platforms, and plans to offer the USDC settlement capability to additional partners later this year."

The way I read this: They plan to later this year allow some Visa customers (via some bank partners to Visa) to pay their credit card bills using the USDC stablecoin, presumably via crypto.com.

Am I really understanding this correctly?
I mean, it's roughly $20-$40 to send an ERC20 token, which yes, is high for retailers and has to get fixed (with zkRollups, see: https://zksync.io/, it is fractions of a penny per trade)...but VISA and Crypto.com are going to be settling millions of dollars, and that fee does not waiver based on the transaction amount. So, it's not an issue for the aforementioned parties.
