> robably I'm not but all the people that I know who are not willing to vaccinate do not fear COVID and all the people that I know who are vaccinated fear COVID.

I suppose this is a post-facto rationalisation. If I fear the vaccine more, I would rationalise my decision to avoid it by mentally diminishing the risks of COVID.
Sure, but the Marines' Force Design 2030 is centered on the PRC, and the Taiwan invasion in particular. Littoral ships would be disastrously awful for that mission? The PRC strategy is land-based antiship missiles, and LCS are survivability level 1 ships with aluminum hull/superstructure and a single CIWS turret. In a shooting war with China they would evaporate.

Mars is already uninhabitable, so what would we gain from moving to Mars? The Earth is not going to become as bad as Mars with any possible disaster smaller than a planetary collision.

Also, a Mars colony that could survive indefinitely if the Earth is wiped out is almost certainly impossible, given the extreme conditions on Mars' surface. We don't even know if there is enough water ice on Mars today to sustain a human city, nevermind the huge network of cities that would be required to produce all high tech products on Mars. Also, with no fossil fuels, it's very unlikely that you could launch rockets from a Mars colony entirely cut off from the Earth.

Then, you'll also be missing nitrogen, and probably a lot of other nutrients. Oxygen will be in short supply, as will Helium. And remember, every time you leak water or other gases into the atmosphere, you've likely lost them forever, since there is no closed cycle of water on Mars, and solar winds are constantly stripping away Mars' atmosphere.

Also, the cost of building a self sustaining colony on Mars is well above the GDP of the world many times over. It would be many times easier to establish a second global trade network on Earth, completely isolated from any existing trade hub. Imagine building chip fabs and growing enough crops for food and bioplastics in Antarctica, and now remeber that on Mars it's much colder, there is virtually no air, and you have to dig tunnels everwhere, since any sort of prolonged exposure to the surface would irradiate you. Oh, and make sure you do this without any dependence on fossil fuels, except perhaps a few tons every few months.
OK I'll have a crack.

That thing is a tri-hull: not your usual armoured ship. That is designed for speed, it is designed to plane and not displace (think speed boat but a lot bigger). It is described as "littoral" which is Latin for around the shore. It's got trendy slopey sides so slightly stealthy and also those angles will help in slightly deflecting kinetic incoming nasties.

So we have a weapon platform that can move really fast close to shore.

When you are running something as big as a national cough defensive cough thingie, you will have many experiments running in peacetime. Note the word peacetime. These experiments will cost billions of ickies (pick your currency - it doesn't matter.) This ship class is pretty obviously one such experiment.

You also have to remember it takes a very long time to get from "we need this" to the thing floating in the water or flying or breaking down on Salisbury Plain. In wartime, timescales are shortened. In (lol) peacetime it takes longer. For example in 1940s Britain, if you need a fighter/bomber which has decent firepower and a small bomb load and have a fair range and be bloody fast then you suddenly get the Mosquitto: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Mosquito . It was made of wood and was also considered two kills if one was shot down - that's how bad the Mossie looked to the Germans.

Any bit of war gear - ship, plane, rifle, grenade etc takes ages to go from plan to usage. Some become classics for example the AK47.

The other thing to consider is that people are employed to conceive, design and build these things. The US is a bunch of states and sometimes politicians ensure local jobs are secured for federal reasons/concerns.
This is a classic blue water vs green water navy doctrinal battle.

The USA has always been a blue water navy at heart, despite these halting experiments at green water doctrine.

Purchase every item in a separate order. There's no downside if you have Prime (for free shipping) and it makes reconciliation and customer service easier too.

Not sure what you're saying there. Stocks have "some sort of economic activity" sustaining their value. If you buy them, you will most likely recover your investment and more (via dividends, or equivalently share buy backs), even if there is no "greater fool" that buys them from you. That does not apply to Ponzi schemes or BTC.

The fact was that I wasn't right. They were doing decent work and their beliefs didn't affect their work.

A lot of non-believers (in the past I would have include myself in that list) seem to believe because they don't believe in a higher being that they are somehow more "rational". Nothing could be further from the truth. It took me a long time to realise that I wasn't being more rational than the faithful and I dogmatic about things that were simply quasi-religious. It took a lot of introspection and several times I had moments where my ideology hit reality hard and I spent several days dealing with cognitive dissonance and having to accept I was just wrong.

It would be a little bit strange to build a CRDT system on top of a more traditional data system. CRDTs solve problems at the network layer at enormous cost basically everything else. If you're not using them there, I can't quite understand what they're doing for you?
If you subscribe to MMT, the IOU here is that the government promises not to throw you in jail for failure to pay taxes if you give them some tokens every year. If you own land within the boundaries of a state, and you decide not to answer the door when the tax man shows up, you'll quickly find out how much ownership you really have.

If you decide to go full nomad and never "own" anything, the tokens still work as IOUs in the eyes of the state. Try paying bus fares (public infrastructure fees) or parking tickets (fines/taxes) in bitcoin or gold.

Money is an IOU to be free from state violence in return for economic productivity and corvee labor.
This was never an intended feature. If I understand the article correctly, they were using an undocumented ("private") API which happened to stop working.
If our money was actually backed by something, maybe. As it stands though the government doesn't really need to tax more money to spend more, even banks are allowed to create money for free now.
I don't think that's their only focus: https://www.marinecorpstimes.com/news/your-marine-corps/2021...

Got it, interesting.
Agreed that the government at the highest level should pay a huge amount of money. Though I think he should get $10^7 and the rest of the $10^8 should become an endowment for a criminal justice/prison reform organization and he can lead it.
Expecting a pattern to repeat itself may not be sufficient to count as intelligence, but general purpose pattern recognition certainly seems to fit the bill.
>There's also the issue that typically the token minorities really seem to be sanitized of their actual culture too.

Not every minority in real life acts like a sterotypical minority. The idea that, say, Black characters should only be allowed to "act Black" would really be tokenism.

As a community, we’re in the process of crossing that river right now. A few years ago it was an accomplishment to get a text based CRDT working at all. Now implementations are starting to compete on features and performance, and they’re starting to see some use in real world applications. But there’s still some edge cases to iron out and understand in terms of memory size and pruning and things like that.

In a few years the rough edges will be ironed out and well understood, and there will be a good set of CRDT implementations you could use without worrying about this stuff. I think Yjs might already be there.

Are you handling the obs-fold? Because this is something the joyent parser falls over at (a streaming parser must buffer the obs-fold to disambiguate). I don't see it in your code. If you handle it your parser can't be O(1) space.

Talking to some friends who work at Blue Origin, one of the ways they compete for talent from SpaceX is by promoting a healthier, sustainable work culture.

While this is great for individuals, it also attracts a lot of people looking to coast. And of course the highly motivated, intelligent people who are willing to put in more time to make cool shit happen aren't going to settle for a distant runner up.

I suppose the real question is, will the SpaceX hare or the Blue Origin tortoise win the race in the long run. SpaceX might make amazing strides quickly, but if they burn out their workforce and fail to keep talent long term, they might suffer in coming years and decades.

>The media has been grossly unfair to Bezos.

I honestly think you have it backwards: the media has been very kind to both Bezos and Branson, particularly the latter. This isn't surprising because the media doesn't really get orbital dynamics any more than they get most technical topics. Nevertheless a lot of them act as if Branson's and Bezos' flight were some big technical achievements or progress forward, as if they can just evolve the designs around the current limitations.

They cannot. Hybrid engines have garbage ISP, the entire design of the Unity is completely worthless for high speed period let alone reentry, every $ spent on it is pointless beyond a quick joyride that will relatively soon be obsoleted by real space tourism. NS is at least vaguely sort of more useful for BO, it has a hydrolox engine so it's not doing anything for them on that front but they got to work on their landing a bit somewhat more easily.

But the value of space comes from actually getting to orbit and then beyond, and that's a fantastically more difficult problem due to the delta-v needed, the rocket equation, our material science, etc. SpaceX's approach of focusing on the real hard problem which delivers serious revenue and opportunity then working backwards on economics, always with focus on orbit as their lodestone, has clearly been much more effective. BO is older than SpaceX and has yet to even once get to orbit or deal with reentry. At all. It's hard not to look at so much of NS and just see such a waste of years and dollars.

>What Bezos actually did was risk his own neck in the first manned flight of a totally new rocket design.

I guess? It had been flown and landed multiple times and it had a lot of margin to work with since it's just a big sounding rocket. They did a hyperconservative work-on-the-first-launch Old Space development process.

>Musk didn't do that.

You think Musk wasn't puckered launching 6 astronauts and tens of billions of dollars worth of other people's precious cargo to space? Musk didn't do that because it wouldn't have proved anything and been a pure waste and distraction from the actual serious mission.

>Branson didn't do that - and earlier test pilots of his craft died.

Branson is a daredevil and that design is garbage on a host of levels.

>As for the BO rocket being totally automated

So is Dragon 2. So will Starship. That's normal and good, it's manual that's bad. But it's also not a special achievement that justified 6 years after first launch and landing.
If no sync means forcing the engineers out of their desks and onto the floor so they actually talk to the production teams and hold in their hands the product that so far has only lived in CAD for them, then I’ll take no-sync any day of the week.

For classic macs with ethernet ports, the simplest method I have found is to host a basic FTP server on another computer (e.g. you can set one up easily enough on a Raspberry Pi) and use an Ftp client such as Fetch on the mac side. I use this method to get files to and from my LC III, which also functions as a bridge baby to the really old macs via the Appletalk serial port.
I actually think you're being too generous. Most people who work in ML are not ignorant that it has risks and flaws.

Many people are very resistant to the idea that their particular work can have a negative impact or that they should take responsibility for that. See Yan Lecun quitting Twitter (https://syncedreview.com/2020/06/30/yann-lecun-quits-twitter...)

Other people are very aware of the dangers of their work. But, when the money gets big enough, they take their concerns to the bank and their therapist. See Sam Altman's concerns about the dangers of machine intelligence before he invested in OpenAI (https://blog.samaltman.com/machine-intelligence-part-1) Contrast that with his decision to become the CEO, take the company private and license GPT-3 exclusively to Microsoft. (https://www.technologyreview.com/2020/02/17/844721/ai-openai...) He had reasons. He posts here. He might defend himself. But to me it seems like the kind of moral drift I've seen happen when people in silicon valley have to make hard choices about money and power.

There are also applications of ML that are generally safe and can be of benefit to society. See the many medical uses including cancer detection.(https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-020-00847-2) Most of the work being done to expose the risks and biases of ML is being done by researchers who are at least somewhat within the field. In my math and computer science program, two and a half of the 25 students are doing their thesis in safe ML. (I'm giving myself a half because I'm working on logic based ML.) I don't think it's fair to believe that every person working in ML is participating in something negative for society.

Ultimately, I think we need some reasonable regulation and a lot more funding for research into safe ML. Corporations and governments want ML for purposes that can be unethical. Unfortunately they also control a lot of the research grants. So they have a disincentive to fund AI ethics or safe ML over pushing the boundaries of what ML can accomplish.

Finally, I think many engineers would like their work to be positive for society. Unfortunately, with what we know now, a lot of the edge cases we run into are unfixable. When Google Photos started classifying black people as gorillas, Google just removed primates from the search terms. Years later, they hadn't fixed it. (https://www.wired.com/story/when-it-comes-to-gorillas-google...) I'm sure most engineers on the project knew that was a hack. When faced with an unfixable issue like that, the engineer either tries to get the company to stop using ML for that problem, compartmentalizes and ignores the issue, or they quit. Where do you draw the ethical line? It's good to hold people accountable but it's unrealistic to expect that to solve the problem.
The downside is an incredible amount of waste as each order could be packed separately. So much extra waste.
