This has been oft-rumoured over the past few years and it's good in a way to see proof.

Even without tools like this, the BJP are already known to have groups of people employed to push their messages across social media and reply to any dissenting posts.

It's a shame Congress is so bad at keeping up with the times to mount an effective counter party. While the AAP are too small.

Good luck with hoping for adopting those features into Base. Even debugging requires its own package in Julia.

But to be fair also Rust is guilty of keeping the base small and leaving important stuff in external crates (serde, tokio,...).

Yes, the AI voice bot is marginally better because I can request "customer service" without waiting to discover the right numeric code. That's about the extent of that.

I'd rather have my phone do that, and my car (display) be a simple dumb terminal that displays whatever my phone tells it to.

I generally trust the software teams at my smartphone maker to get things more-right with these types of things: will my car maker issue patches for, e.g., DST changes?

That's an excellent question!

We are not trying to make Elixir the new AI language, but one possible language for AI. @hosh covered some of the use cases in his reply and I can add two more insights:

* Lately we have seen functional ideas brought into Python through projects like JAX and Thinc.ai and I think exploring those concepts within a functional language is both interesting and exciting (and we are not the only ones doing so!)

* Besides IoT and data pipelines, there is potential in mixing some of the current ML trends, such as Distributed and Federated Learning, with the capabilities of the platform

We likely aren't much attractive to Python developers right now, unless you are interested in contributing/designing ML tooling (for learning, hobby, or professional reasons) or you have a use case that suits one of the mentioned strengths of the platform.

Some parts are correct, true. Mostly "It’s ALWAYS a safe bet to assume people will lose liberty." is really wrong.

The US is a far more free country now than it was 100 years ago or at any point since the introduction of agriculture.

Compared to one hundred years ago, there's political changes:

- Minorities and women can vote

- Labor rights

- Consumer protections (No more debtor prisons, etc.)

And tech changes:

- People aren't stuck on their farms all day

- Families aren't stuck doing chores all day

- Birth control has allowed sexual freedom

- The trains, planes, cars and the internet has allowed freedom of location

Etc.
That explains why they die, but not how they kept going when they were dying. I always remember the Nigel Benn/Gerard McClellan fight when he was touching his head after being stopped, and then collapsed in the corner.

I'll preface that I'm a beginner and not a food scientist in any right. I tried to make a starter twice and failed both times. I can't say for certain why, but it could have been from impatience not seeing the start rise every day while the colonies built up. If I were to see the starter rise due to yeast action, I would be more likely to maintain it, which would give the bacteria more time to create a colony. So it's not speeding the bacteria along, but rather "faking it until you make it".

Somehow ironically the writer of that article, W L George, died 4 years later aged 43 on "pneumonia and heart failure" and "had been ill from the last twelve months" [0].

It reads like a high-school assignment in which "100 years from now" is entirely used as a narrative device and the author with his literary skill set kind of seemed bored with it and wants to just get over with.

He basically mirrows the sentiment of his time by extrapolating - with hardly any spin of his own - the low hanging fruits: new rays, wireless technology, movies with sound & color, ease of housework (compressed papier mache: Ikea?), community dwellings, "servant problem", everything you need in a pill, city roofed with glass (his own spin?) ...

His view that 1822 (Jefferson) is more dissimilar to 1922 than 2022 will be to 1922 (for a little girl) is weirdly off. He does not go into detail as to why and in which fundamental ways.

"The more we discover the less is left" seems even more absurd and goes contrary to the open-endedness of the scientific inquiry (which he praised beforehand): "the more we discover the more questions arise".

Finally when turning to political issues his narrating device serves only to illuminate his own (political/societal) views: emanicaption of women (from 20.000 years of slavery), tendency for socializations (not socialism!), (unconscious) nationalizing of important industries, "Anti-Trust Acts" in which the State limits profits and arbitrages between industries and workers, international trade in the hands of "controlled combines" (globalization) as a pacifying force, political conditions (nations) as a driver for war.
Well, as a witness to WWI, WWII surely had to be "horrible beyond my conception".

The potential of America to immense wealth ("most enterprising creature") away from a euro-centric (and partly his feminist views) are imho his most refreshing views.

As a necessary flattery for the reader he goes on to predict an american flowering in literature and arts ("infinitely more than they are producing today" sounds more like an insult by an Englishman ;)).

And by ending with "there will be no more things one can't say and things one can't think" and "a great liberalism of mind will prevail" I can only reply 100 years later with Goethe's 200 years old Wahlverwandschaften[1] and one prominent slogan of Occupy Wall Street: "None are more hopelessly enslaved than those who falsely believe they are free."

IMO, this is not a problem of RSS but how that particular feed endpoint is implemented (assuming your reader will append entries). Usually, popular news sites (that provides RSS/Atom) will have e.g., "/rss/all" endpoint to get all the news for that day, and these entries are refreshed a couple of times per day. Also, they will provide "/rss/latest" refreshed every couple of minutes or so, so it's up to your reader to check that endpoint frequently, parse and populate only the newest entries.

I was thinking the other day about RSS-based social media.

Imagine a service that offers a social media experience comparable with Twitter/Insta/Tumblr with rich clients, but under the hood it's all RSS, so not only can you subscribe to third-party feeds out of the box but your "profile" is also an RSS feed that other people outside of the platform can also subscribe to.

They could do a better job of separating the two.

Most companies would save their time and mine if they had a callback system which took as many details as possible up front & didnt have to ask my name and account details because Im already logged in.

Even better if it could give me some warning about where I am in the queue and when the call might be coming (e.g. via push notification).

I'd 1000x prefer that over any oversold AI hooked up to an FAQ.

Unfortunately it seems call centres are driven by very traditional metrics which wouldnt lead anybody to set up a system like this.
If the studies suggesting that Omicron antibodies help protect against the Delta variant, and Omicron seems much more mild in comparison - looks like we're seeing an actual possibility of an end to the pandemic (at least to the point where we deal with COVID like we do with cold and flu season instead of shutting down the world).

Hidden in my comment is a question: has anybody even tried to included previous lines into the prompt, and does that not help? Asking here because there are a lot of ML nerds who could probably do a proof of concept in a few hours, if not a few lines of code, so there's a decent chance I'll get an informed response.

> For the week ending Dec. 18, 1,265 lab-confirmed flu patients were hospitalized, up from the week prior. The cumulative hospitalization rate was 1.4 per 100,000 population as of Dec. 18, nearly double the overall cumulative hospitalization rate reported during the 2020-21 season. 3

I think you're comparing hospitalization rate per population vs. hospitalization per infected persons. If we look at the recent data and do some estimation, that's about 50k new hospitalzed for 3M new omicron cases, which is 0.016 or 10 times the flu; this sounds more reasonable.
I totally support anything that promotes RSS, but I have to wonder if I live in a bubble.

I don't use social media except a single, oft-neglected Mastodon account and get all my info from RSS. According to Newsblur I have ~500 feeds subscribed and ~5000 unread items (can't keep up) every week.

I don't doubt that RSS is getting less popular, but perhaps due to moving in circles where RSS is popular I really don't feel like it's dying.

I have a much simpler set-up, but I don't run everything on one server.
I usually prefer having a separate VPS or dedicated server for each service, but this is starting to be a bit more costly than simply renting a powerful machine for everything.

One advantage of having everything scattered around is that not everything is going to go down at once (eg: a DDOS or even a traffic spike on your machine will kill all your sites/services if you only have one machine).

I use:
- Percona PMM[0] - Database/server monitoring
- Backups to BackBlaze B2 using cron jobs
- Simple deployments, usually using SFTP to upload files (usually for LAMP applications, also running Node.js apps using pm2 that can listen to file changes and restart the app)

I am actually working on creating some tools/scripts/guides to aid with self-hosting (for backing up stuff, uptime monitoring, alerting).
Can it be true though, except in very extreme/niche circumstances, that there are really people who are $200K+ better than other devs? I can't really imagine what that level of dev can do much more than those I have worked with who are only paid $50-100K

I wonder if the perception is distorted by FANNG companies who can afford to simply pay whatever i.e. another 100K for perhaps 10% better candidate just to make sure they get the best? In most of the companies I have worked for, even though a dev can add a lot of content that gets sold to customers, the company still have to pay for all the non-production staff and infrastructure.
> Severe outcomes are blatantly more common, per capita, in people who are not vaccinated.

With omicron? I have not seen any data to support that.
Why do you feel that Scala has just as much historical baggage? Isn't the whole point of the Scala 2/3 split to remove historical baggage.
Are the unvaccinated catching it over and over again? That seems to me a vanishingly rare occurrence, admittedly within a rapidly shrinking set of people. It would be interesting to get some figures for this, hopefully without being lynched for asking the question.
I think broadly RSS needs tools to make content prioritisation and find better. Certain feeds like news sites put everything in their feed and they do a terrible job of surfacing what is likely to be valuable. It would be nice if the high volume sites could be tamed some how and its not going to come from them and its not something RSS/Atom deals with. Customised feeds, filtering and people who liked this liked that kind of surfacing without the obnoxious adverts has a decent chance of being niche popular with the right interface.

I am certainly interested in trying to improve this. There has to be a less privacy invading and engagement promoting system that can work and compete with the mess that is the big silicon valley sites.

As a counter-example, I've been on the hiring side many, many, many, many times, more times than I can count, and I despise leetcode-style tests as much as or more than anyone.

I've been doing this long enough to know that the things that matter in every job at every company are almost never technical ability. It's skill in managing deadlines, collecting requirements and dealing with changes, divvying up work with teammates, things like that. Things that are difficult to test for, even on a whiteboard.

Asking questions about experiences and posing hypotheticals to see what gets candidates interested, or what stories they have to tell, these have been a better predictor of eventual success in my experience than any sort of technical test.

Your article perfectly illustrates my point. It says Omicron is 3/4 of the cases and that this one person MIGHT have died from it, but it's unclear and may be due to his other health conditions.

Let's just assume it was Omicron that killed this guy. All signs point to Omicron being less deadly than the common cold.
Because there is no way to define such a number. We only “know” as per Brook’s famous paper, No silver bullets that this number has not passed a cumulative value of 10 in like 3 decades now, since the first programming languages. The only way to increase productivity is through code reuse - and given the flourishing JVM ecosystem, Java has that as a big plus.
That interpretation of communication is how we develop and craft the personalities of children.
