> Not sure how a subset would work in practice.

What I'm imagining is a specification, defining which subset of HTML should be included, together with a <meta> tag which indicates a document's intention to be compliant with the standard.
No, an NFT is not a pair but a tuple. The third part of the tuple is the third party who issued the NFT. In the case of the Brooklyn Bridge, the NFTs I expect that would confer social status in the metaverse regarding the bridge would be ones issued by the City of New York or perhaps the descendants of the original architects. This will probably actually happen in some form but it will be a while. If you’re talking about a specific work of art depicting the bridge, the only NFT of value is the one sanctioned by the original artist.

That NFT is scarce. Too many people do not understand what an NFT represents and what it’s short and longer term expected conferred benefits are, and are hung up on trying to create analogies to existing forms of ownership like physical property rights or copyright.
While I agree with your comment, new tokenization laws, like the one in Switzerland, make it possible to create tokens and NFTs that transfer legally binding rights. E.g., you can go to a judge, prove that you own the private key to a wallet owning assets, and they will enforce the contract behind a said assets.

Edit: here is one article describing the Swiss framework: https://thelawreviews.co.uk/title/the-virtual-currency-regul...

This comment reads super out of touch to me.

I think you are hugely underestimating the audience for this kind of thing. This can be worth far far more than a few millions.

But yeah, of course for the rich HN audience this is an anti-feature. For the folks taking payday loans? Probably not!
It begs the question though. The argument is: Assume you can't make artificial intelligence without the stimuli of the real world's processes. Since a single human is less complicated than the real world, therefore you can't make artificial intelligence.
...The recent history of the country bears witness to H Kissinger's values perhaps more than any other person. Unfortunately I don't think 'AGI shouldn't be used against humanity' is in there alongside Realpolitik.

Windows did have an issue where it did not clean the update directory. They've fixed it. You can put your home on another partition, or if not for Windows, you can do it most easily for Linux.

There's solutions to this that are not the OP and are probably easier, people just write them off because "ew CLI."
I would argue that the birth of Gemini and the (timid) Gopher revival have to do with this. They are very far from being mainstream though.
I think instead of the center of the bounding box, I'd instead use the average center of each selected item. Each primitive will have a rotation agnostic invariant center relative to its location, so the average of those will always be invariant
I have been programming for 54 years. My best work was done in my forties. Push hard for a senior well paid position now. If you’re good, you will be worth it.

I have never stopped programming. Even now my work is exceptional although I don’t think I could get a job.

Keep at it. Develop non-programming deep domain knowledge. That can be a asset getting interviews When people think you’re too old.
I would be unreasonable. The power state appears to me as highly asynchronous to program execution. I see no explicit guarantees on how the state is retrieved or synchronized, without synchronization the state wont be properly updated. We know that the computer was of at some point, so it starts of as undefined. Given undefined as starting state and the lack of update guarantee we can assume that it will always return an undefined value. This opens up a lot more optimization possibilities than assuming a 1.
Similar to the Norwegian symbol, that also has a circle around it.

I heard Schmidt talking about the book in podcasts, and from what i understand he bases his view of the success of NLP models like GPT*. I think this is sorely misguided, as nothing suggests that these models, which can generate readable text, are any form of intelligent or have any kind of agency. Nothing in the structure of a transformer indicates an ability for such things. GTPs seem to be more like a "central pattern generator" for language, like the neural circuits that make patterns like walking possible. The arguments weren't convincing and imho lacked insight beyond cheap fearmongering.
Text to speech applications. (Voice Dream Reader, NaturalReader)

I may have always had mild-moderate ADD or just low reading comprehension. Not only do these applications improve my reading comprehension to (for me) super human levels.. they improve my reading stamina to super human levels.

If I had used this technology in school I feel quite confident I would have gone from a B student to an A student.
There's an amorality (or immorality) in the Bay Area that is deeply troubling and masked by substantial virtue signaling to give the opposite impression. There is an arrogance (really sociopathy) among some in SV that is almost required for grand success in tech - albeit to the detriment of society. How different is the indifference to human suffering alleged in this article from the allegations against Facebook. The charges are different. The indifference and complicity is the same.

>In other words you have to go to that particular museum to see the painting , and everybody knows that you have to go there, there is a bottleneck in the both the quantity and quality of copies of the original, and it's very tight, matter of fact social, logistical and common sense factors limit the capability of copying the painting in 1:1 fashion just to the museum .

That sounds like a lot of words to justify why viewing that particular painting has value, even though you can see a replica and probably wouldn't notice the difference. All the value of viewing the original in the museum comes from the social clout that you get from being a cultured person that can afford an european vacation to visit the louvre. That sounds a lot like NFTs. Here's a quote from another NFT article:

>“This is a great example of right-clicker mentality,” Midwit Milhouse said on Twitter. “Sure, you can make your own gold-coated steak for 65GBP, but then you don’t have the satisfaction, flex, clout that comes from having eaten at Salt Bae’s restaurant. The value is not in the cost of the steak. Go ahead, make yourself a gold-coated steak at home. Post a picture of it on Instagram. See how much clout it gets you. Salt Bae’s dish costs around 1500GBP because people want to pay 1500 GBP to show off that they can afford to pay that much. It’s all about the flex.”

>It's 1:0,9999999999999 and maybe cannot be picked up, but again: common sense.

>As a matter of common sense everybody knows that the physical world can NEVER be exactly replicated in a 1:1 fashion.

Sounds like you're trying to hide behind the 0.00000000001%. In other words, the replica might be 0.99999999999% similar, but people are apparently willing to pay millions for the remaining 0.00000000001%. To me, that's as irrational as placing value in the remaining 0% that NFTs represent.
and it would also allow FB to collect better information about those police users too who i suppose is a highly lucrative targeted advertisement segment for guns/steroids/etc and that also provides significant information about their social graph.

Your points about the media may be the case but there's a lot of other reasons to use NFTs.

Let's rephrase to 'perks'.

The owner of a house now has access to the perks of owning a house:
E.g Noone can enter property without permission, can't park on your driveway, can act how you want in your own home etc

People without a house do not have this ability.

The owner of an NFT now has access to the perks of owning that NFT:
Access to exlusive discord (training and information, etc), early access to new projects, job opportunities etc

An NFT can offer a lot of different utility which are only received by proving their ownership of the cryptographic token.
I used CoLinux early in my career. It was great! We had a number of projects that needed Visual Studio, but anything Ruby was just so much better using Linux. VMs were an option but having to context switch between what window I have what open in, plus is it in the VM or my main machine meant I was constantly losing track and having to search for things. CoLinux made it seamless. Really sad to see it's been abandoned. WSL looks pretty good, but not the seamless integration CoLinux had.
> Public health authorites != some random "doctor" being interviewed or quoted by right-wing media.

Prasad is routinely interviewed & quoted by the "left-wing media". You are eager to fixate on the "wing" of the media coverage, but not engage with the argument being made.

Public health "authorities" are groups of people with opinions. Other people with expertise are no more or less qualified to have opinions, even if you don't agree with those opinions. If those opinions are backed by evidence and reason, and your opinions are backed by appeals to authority, then you lose.

> It should be obvious that the burden of proof lies with the outlying opinion

Close, but wrong. The burden of proof lies on the person advancing a hypothesis, whether that person is within the consensus or outside of it. Citing an authority does not excuse you from the burden of proof, any more than it excused the church in the time of Gallileo.

> JSON numbers, just like all human readable formats, are decimal...

All JSON numbers are implemented as integers or floating point, and as a result, have to be cast as a decimal (a decimal type is generally something that meets this specification: http://speleotrove.com/decimal/) when you import them.

Decimal types differ from floating point types in three ways: they are accurate, and they take into account rounding rules and precision. Decimal math is slower, can have greater precision and is better suited to domains where finite precision is needed. Floating point is faster, but is not as precise, so it's good for some scientific uses... or where perfect precision isn't important but speed is... say 3d graphics.

I've billed lots of hours over the years fixing code where a developer used floats where they should have used decimals. For example, if you are dealing with money, you probably want decimal. It's one of those problems like trying to parse email addresses with a regex or rolling your own crypto... it will kind a work until someone finds out it really doesn't (think accounting going, our numbers are off by random amounts, WTF?).
You’re just moving the goal posts around.

“Show me real decentralised apps with users?” A. DeFi Q.”that’s just moving crypto around, what else?” A. NFTs Q. “That doesn’t count”

You’ll keep doing this until X is on crypto making money. What’s the data point that would convince you ? Tell me honestly ? What is X where this sort of question stops making sense?
Cool now let’s proceed to discuss why, reducing a whole population into mindless stereotypes. We have means tested everything to death that now it’s these types of observations that we think will push us forward or provide any value. Free education for all. Done and done.

> Such a token is inherently worthless

Do you see data as being inherently worthless as well? Because that's all there is, data. And according to the current market, it's not worthless, just like even if some people consider Bitcoin to be inherently worthless, there is a market that says it isn't.
It's the OEM that offers the contracts. When a company goes to HP or Dell they say we need 500 computers 10 servers and what can you offer us and here is our budget. The OEM comes back and says we will give you 500 computers and 10 servers for 15 million dollars and every 4 years you get refreshed with the latest hardware and operating system bundles for the desktop. For the 10 servers we have 24/7 support with on-site replacement of hardware and advanced maintenance. With in these deals we offer ms windows latest build and the latest office packages. That's how it's done. The government doesn't lobby Microsoft at all.
I only carry my phone and my wallet when I go out. If I’m driving I bring my car’s key fob, no attached keys. I get in through my garage. If the power is out for some reason, I can grab my spare key hidden on the property. Why would I want to bring a physical, metal key around with me? Is it the 1900s?
Presumably your car will be in places with more demanding climate conditions than your knob-filled synth. And areas of high humidity or with lots of dust/gunk are the places that break down knobs the most.

But I agree that I think it's probably largely a UX/aesthetics choice. Low cost touch screens are usually pretty terrible at handling varying climate conditions, especially compared to some decent knobs/encoders. I'm hoping once the manufacturers are done broadcasting how "modern" their interfaces are, that they'll start adding knobs back in for the common operations (volume, climate control, etc)

I also wonder if the fear stemmed from back when knobs and buttons required extra wiring instead of using buses like most cars do now.
I think the devil is in one important detail, namely - how do we define complexity?

Let's define the problem as Evolution(inputs) = Intelligence. The claim is that complexity(function) + complexity(inputs) > complexity(outputs). Now to show that the parent claim is not necessarily true (which is not the same as proving that it is false), we just need to show that there exists a combination of complexity function and a system that does not satisfy the above constraints.

1. Let's examine information compressibility as a complexity function. There are a few examples of where a simple set of rules and inputs could produce basically an infinite stream of incompressible information. Examples include Conway game of life, double pendulum, fractals, all irrational numbers, etc...

2. Now to tie that back to Evolution, the authors avoid defining evolution or its inputs, which means they could be quite simple yet produce mind boggling complexity. Therefore the argument that the evolution must be more complex than intelligent life is backwards (if you buy my complexity definition anyhow :P).

3. Of course this kind breaks down if we discretize evolution because at that point all of the existing life is an input into the evolution. So complexity(evolution) + complexity(life[t] + environment[t]) > complexity(life[t+1]) is obviously true for some t and t + 1. For example if t is right before a mass extinction event and t+1 is right after.

This is somewhat unrelated, but I am quite partial of theory that life in general and intelligence in particular is driven by entropy. Or maybe less confusingly (because who the hell knows what entropy is) is driven by macro tendency of everything towards lowest energy states. Life in this case is smart matter that bridges activation energy gap to extract available energy gradients as fast as possible. Here is the concept explained by people who put a lot more thought into it: https://www.quantamagazine.org/a-new-thermodynamics-theory-o...

How does this relate to computer being in Halt state, which is quite valid state for servers (there could be even a dedicated Halt button)? Technically computer hardware is ON. I remember that in such state it shows a "carrot" prompt (>>>) from the SRE console.

By the way, there is also HCF instruction (Halt and Catch Fire).

we avoid negativity during brainstorming to create psychological safety. that in turn expands the boundaries of creativity. the process doesn't end there however, which is what your criticism sems to assume, since we need to winnow down the ideas generated to a feasible subset, and then further to a pursued option. this latter part is where criticism (but not negativity) is employed to iterate toward the chosen option. literally no one argues the strawman that there can be no criticism during decision-making.

optimizing both divergence and convergence processes leads to good decision-making, not just one or the other.

I agree with this, but the gp prolly wanted to brimg up that developed countries will offer subsidies that develping ones cant, just like in agriculture. Imo developed countries need to enact it first, and without subsidies and then pressure developing countries, even though developing countries produce more carbon. From a pure logic perspective thats not the optimal solution, but i think thats the only remotely plausible one that will make a global carbon tax work
to do that you would have to start mass manufacturing a vacine a somehow administer it to the whole population secretly. without any other country getting wind of it. then you have to pray it doesn't mutate enough to make your vaccine ineffective. it is to big a project to not leak just based on everyone involved having to not tell anyone. from the researchers the administration of the program to the people working at the production facility.
Economies of scale are real, this is not even controversial. Stopping things from growing arbitrarily is not a strategy of any kind.

Post-stalinist Soviet Union, while not manically murderous, eventually imploded under the weight of a myriad suboptimal policy choices. Alas, it took 40 years to do so. There is a lot of inertia, I don't think anyone is arguing that UC (or Google) will collapse next year, but that the weight of poor policy choices compounds over time.

Re "mass de-industrialization", there is a historical reference, specifically the complete bankruptcy of ex Soviet block industry in the '90s, being sold for pennies to Western investors to bulldoze it and build something else in its place. I don't have a crystal ball, but I do wonder how US/China rivalry will play out in the 2040s and beyond.
