> If this trade was fair, and not an extraction of wealth, you would have seen this create similar levels of benefits to both parties

No, the majority of the wealth would go to the party that did the work behind the trade, ie those who ran the ships to go around the world. They could buy goods in India for local Indian prices, and then sell in Europe for European prices, that is where the money lies. Not sure how you can argue that it isn't fair to buy goods for their local market value value.

India could have done the same, realized the trade is worth more than the production of the goods and made their own ships and went around the world making much more profits, but they didn't.
You can't explain inflation as the widespread shortage of everything at the same time.
If you meant that Vimeo is shaking down small business clients, that might be true. But the way you phrased things it sounded like you were saying small business services in general are a shakedown, and Vimeo was just another example of this.
I wonder how many direct routes just aren't possible anymore as they can't fly over Russian airspace and can't fit within ETOPS safety margins.

The point about not forgiving debt without solving the underlying problem seems to be missing from much of the student debt debate.

Though, the most surprising thing to me was needing to provide a privilege statement in order to speak at the college event.

How the hell can anyone provide any sort of nuanced insight into the privilege and challenges they faced in a "disclosure"? It reeks of enacting a miniature struggle session to undermine the speaker before they even have a chance to talk.
I nearly completely agree with you. The one thing that a twitter "threat" enables that is poorly supported in other formats is the ability to have comments on a particular sentence.

The worst part of the twitter as a long form platform is when a single idea extends beyond the limitations of a single tweet.
Question: do elite institution degrees confer any addition to market value commensurate with their cost, or do they simply select for people who already have high market value?
This is only because the Python type hinting ecosystem is so bad. Tons of projects don't have type hints, there are multiple conflicting interpretations of the types, MyPy is very buggy (Pyright is much much better but few people use it).

Compare it to Typescript which is a similar sort of tacked on type hinting system - Typescript is basically always machine checked.
That can already happen without this law.

Thanks! I was wondering about that, especially why it had so much Java in it. My theory was that it was still there from the applet days, although it still seemed like a lot more java code than I would expect since the local JVM did the executing.

Dang, this is making me a little nostalgic. I actually really enjoyed writing Java Applets. I'm sure if I went back to some of my old codebases though I'd be thanking my lucky stars for React and LiveView.
The amount almost doesn't matter (it's definitely on the high side compared to alternatives). They can definitely afford it if they have a reasonable budget. However, how Vimeo has treated them as a paying customer is terrible.

I can’t quite tell if you’re missing the point. The pizza analogy is just some simple case that’s easy to explain in a paragraph. The book is on negotiations, so they need some easy case to negotiate.

I’ve had to negotiate for my team at work before and one common thing I hear at private discussions with other parties when in planning for the meetings is that it’s backwards and toxic to have business politics and they want to leave the team over it. this feels like you’re take - and it misses the point that today, you have to accomplish some task. Even if you’re against politics at work, you’re beholden to them once they start. Tomorrow is for deciding if you should accept reality or make changes. And some things aren’t likely to go away.
Good luck! Adding type hints to Python code that was written without them is extremely difficult.

I'm fine with child (prepubescent) rapists whom are adults to be sentenced to death. If you were an accomplice to that, as a videographer or similar, I'm also OK with death.

(There's a really weird social area from 13-18, with the weirdness and illegality going away up at 18. Stuff in this realm, especially around 2 similar ages, gets very stupid. This is where you can get 2 16yo's sexting and being charged with CSAM of their own body. I'm avoiding this in this post.)

But what does this CSAM scanner do? It only catches already-produced pictures of CSAM. In other words, it's evidence of said crime. In no other area of criminal law is there a law against said evidence itself. And yes, given the statutory nature of these images (possession is criminal, even if you didnt' put them there), I'm not at all comfortable in charging people for simple possession.

Even if they have urges of liking age-inappropriate pornography and "CSAM", as long as they're not doing any physical actions of harming humans, I'd much rather them do so in their own bedroom alone.

Nor do I buy into the gateway theory that CSAM leads to production of CSAM by raping children. This smacks to me of the DARE drug propaganda and gateway theory (which is complete bullshit).

And, we also already have harder situations that have been deemed legal: SCOTUS stated that Japanese Manga Hentai featuring schoolgirls (obviously under 18, sometimes by quite a lot), are completely and 100% legal. Again, SCOTUS foscused on 1fa and the fact that no children were harmed in its production.

And that leads to what just happened a few days ago. With the Zelenskyy (badly done) deepfake, when can we expect 18yr women with very petite bodies, being deepfaked into 10-13 year olds? In those cases, we could attest that everyone in the production is of legal age and provided ongoing consent. Will this fall under the same as Hentai?

Tl;Dr: I'm for the criminal legalization of CSAM. I'm for death penalty for child rapists/child sexual assault. But this, I can see going very very bad, in easily overscoping CSAM to the "cause of the day".
Scuba: Diving into Data at Facebook
Your insistence that access, peering and infrastructure costs equal $0 couldn't be further from the truth, and unmetered doesn't mean infinite, so your entire premise is false to begin with. Vimeo is not running on a $100/mo server, and that you believe you understand their costs better than they do is ridiculous and shameful.

The ultra uses two identical dice in a single package, with an EMIB-style interconnect. This is fewer, larger, and more uniform dice than the Ryzen approach, but still not monolithic.
It kind of happened? Many countries established new levels of censorship and control. People installed tracking apps and got used to constant surveillance. All sorts of things. But not good enough, hence the need for WW3.

Anyway, not saying it was or is a master plan. Just saying that if you were hypothetically thinking about a reset button, a pandemic would be a clever approach, and within technological reach.

"The Great Reset" was the official motive of the World Economic Forum. They absolutely do want a reset.
This is very hard for me to confirm: I don't have any crt close by and the crt's which I used more (late 90's) were already mostly plane.

But I remember big crt tv's. Some of the biggest one's, had a form of "inverse" curvature to mimic plane panels of the time. I clearly remember one whose curvature was not constant over the screen and panning scenes had a weird effect of enhancing its deformities. So, I still think he is wrong even on this second case.
I Didn’t Care About Crypto–Until a Fake Canadian ‘Emergency’ Showed Me Why
Since gravity bends light, I always thought it would be pretty neat if somehow no one noticed until recently this operation was completely reversible (i.e. that bending light creates gravity), and within a few years we suddenly have superluminal travel supported only by the technology of optics.
> The less discussed scenario is when a candidate aggressively negotiates a very above-average compensation but subsequently performs in a below-average manner. This is one of the most common complaint scenarios in a private manager forum that I'm part of: Managers who get wowed by people with excellent interviewing and self-selling skills who end up underperforming their lesser-paid peers later. It generates a lot of guilt and anxiety for managers when they realize they've been duped into inverting the contribution:reward relationship in their compensation structure.

Isn't this more a failure of the management? What can justify having wide disparities in starting comp for the same role? Seems like the striving candidate should be bumped up a level & you just hold them accountable to the higher bar, rather than evaluating their performance based on comp.
This is an incredibly disingenuous statistic. The 25,000 is from rabies due to bites from feral dogs. This would not be an issue in medical settings where the canines would be vaccinated.

> If that isn't true, then yes, we should seriously consider abandoning the idea of self-driving cars.

I wanted to share a (I found) controversial thought: Self-driving cars are the US response to trains. No taxes for railways are palatable, but private vehicles on special roads and profit to be made, great for the car industry. That, IMO, is what drives (pun intended) self-driven cars.
I suspect the MSM engaging in coordinated lying on behalf of the powerful has been going on for at least half a century if not longer. The rise of the internet has allowed us, the audience, to independently falsify their accounts and listen to alternate perspectives, but I find it endlessly baffling that large numbers of people still just... allow their reality to be exactly what the MSM pundits tell them it is.

Oh really? What is my "take"?

> Historically there was a lot of money to be made being a "slum lord" and renting in poorer communities where people have bad credit so can't get mortgages , there's a reason the term exists.

Yeah, but that's not under discussion.

The point I made was that because evictions are so expensive (wiping out years of profit) and long for landlords, they are only ever a last resort.

When you hear right now, as in today, under current laws, sob stories from people who've been evicted successfully, it's highly probable that they're leaving out the actual reason that the landlord just wiped out up to a year of profit just to get them out the door.

No one is wiping out years of income and going into the red just because they want to be mean.
Some kind of mix between appeal to authority and false equivalence?

This could be Sam Altman reacting to the recent article about George Hotz [1] mentioning Sam Altman as actually being a pro status quo figure masquerading as an anti-establishment figure:

[1] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30738763

It's a poetic mission statement for an endeavor which seems to jive with Hotz’s recognition that such a school must be physical and beautiful. However, scratch away the veneer, Hotz suggests in a recent blog post, and one finds that those behind UATX “are either straight up supporters of Power or naive political children.” He points to Joe Lonsdale, Sam Altman, and Marc Andreessen, all of whom “are very successful in the current system.”

“This is not a counter-elite!” Hotz continues. “This is a spin off of the exact same BS that’s everywhere. NGO awards and fake status signaling markers.”

One of the things that blog post makes me realize is that we don't have instruction manuals that are intended for a technical audience anymore. The odds of seeing an instruction manual with pinouts for connectors and voltage levels are pretty much nil nowadays.
They did not ask for consent to set up a payments profile during age verification.

Though what you're describing would also be illegal. GDPR does not allow requesting consent for such broad data processing just to fulfill a legal requirement to verify the user's age, and then denying access to the service if the user understandably refuses to give consent.

> Example: How does a researcher test whether algorithmically-classified illegal imagery stored on user devices is being scanned and reported home to Apple's servers, and what those bounds of AI-classified criminality are? (presumably with respect to what is illegal in the user's jurisdiction)

I'm not an expert in AI so this might be totally off base but I feel like you would be able to use an "intersection" of sorts for this type of detection. You detect children and pornography, the children portion trains it for age recognition and the porn portion trains it to see sexual acts. Slap those two together and you've got CSAM detection.
I would have thought this approach would cause issues for leakage power? Better to run fast then sleep and power gate to cut leakage, especially at smaller geometries.

I didn't see any statements about what will be, just what should be.

The sort-of counter-example is that "Tech jobs [..] are increasingly willing to hire with no degree". But strange that he of all people didn't add a statistic on that.

Am I missing something?
Sure, that's fair.

Regardless, my issue is that the people who do the actual work do not get to determine how profits get distributed - power is held over them by the owner (who is only the owner by virtue of state enforcement of property rights), and this leads to accumulation of wealth and power in the hands of a select few. IE, capitalism.
imo tanks are highly outdated weapon platform- slow, easy to spot, slow to maneuver & expensive.

Javelin costs (according to google) 178K and 78K for rocket, while T-14 tank $3.7M.. sounds like dime on a dollar. war is about cost & time to build something and it's clear that tanks loose here.

And it's super simple to train someone to launch a missile, while a tank crews needs to be trained WAY LONGER.

yes, terrifying for civilians, but ineffective for prepared adversary on a 21st century battlefield.

Imo tank battles as in 20th century will remain only as part of World of Tanks. Battleships are next as well... because hypersonic missiles.

Could you elaborate? I certainly didn't mean to imply I'm any better than someone in the position I described. I'm as much guilty of sin as anyone else.

I don't think it's pretentious either to say that all have sinned in some way or another. As Solzhenitsyn writes, the line between good and evil runs right through every human heart -- all are capable of great good and great evil.

No, they shouldn’t at this point. Especially in areas where everyone who wants to is vaccinated.

Government-forced quarantine was only valid - if ever - at the beginnings of a disease where little was know. It’s not valid when we know the disease poses minimal threat to the majority of the population, and only slightly above minimal to a minority.

First, no, I don't think continued circulation ex post is comparable to the harm that occurs at the time the abuse physically occurs. My own view is that whatever feelings flow from knowing that the images are 'circulating' isn't harm at all. Less personally, lingering negative effects from some event in the form of flashbacks or unpleasant memories are not new instances of harm as a matter of law (for whatever that's worth), and I think it goes beyond straining common sense to use the term 'harm' in that way.

But let's assume you're right.

You think that pedophiles won't find ways to share content even if every tech company in the world implemented this? You think pedophiles don't and won't have terabytes of child porn backed up on hard disks around the world that will be distributed and circulate for the next millennium and beyond, even if it has to be carried around on USBs or burned to CDs (which aren't exactly amenable to CSAM scanning), and then saved to offline computers? Put another way, even if the internet shut down tomorrow, plenty of pedophiles around the world would continue jacking off to those images and sharing them with their buddies - you don't need the internet for that.

Further, even if you could convince me that it's harmful in the sense that I understand the word, I'm not sure I'd ever be persuaded that the amount of harm could be sufficient to outweigh the harms that would result from the scanning itself.

Happy to listen, though.
> The M1 Ultra is using the same CPU cores and GPU cores as an iPhone, just more of them.

Not only that, but it's running them at basically the same clock speeds as the rest of the M1 family, and even as the iPhone. This suggests that they're running at not far above a best efficiency point, rather than way past the elbow of the voltage curve as is traditional for desktop chips.
Everyone, living and dead, within the Pax Americana sphere is tracked in near real time. Including everyone's economic activity, movements, communications, relationships, interests, and affinities.

These additional disclosures merely confirm additional pieces of overall panopticon are in fact operational.

(I don't know the current state of medical record sharing. Back when I worked in healthcare IT, mid 2000s, we had datafeeds to the CDC and others for public health stuff, deaths, births. No matter; What isn't explicit can largely be inferred from other datasets.)

One darkly humorous aspect is that we're still arguing about stuff like census, gun licenses, voter registration databases, etc. Those tasks could be done with straightforward queries, with almost no errors, no drama necessary.
What's wrong with VS Code?
Good question. This has been studied a lot and the answer is…unclear.

I think the kind of longitudinal studies needed combined with a small “treatment” group make this kind of investigation as hard to do as a nutritional study.
What is your monitor layout?
Got the same impression. The narrative presented indicates the writer has minimal appreciation for what degrees in fields other than their own actually provide.

Good luck being able to practice engineering if you haven't got a degree! The licensing bodies for professions won't care a fig about your life experience.
To clarify, I'm not saying that RISC-V code density of C extension is a big advantage over its competitors, but it is a huge benefit for RISC-V.

You are right, code density is perhaps not that critical today.

And it is difficult to quantify its relevance as code density is always related to other variables such as instruction expressiveness, numbers of uop emitted, etc.

But I still think that code density is important for RISC-V.
Because RISC-V philosophy to reach high performance is to use very simple instructions that can be combined together and take advantage of macro-op fusion.
I think RISC-V without macro-op fusion can't reach the performance of other ISA.

But RISC-V with all these simple and not very expressive instructions and without C extension has a pretty bad code density which could cost a lot because it is not at the competitors' level.

So if we think of RISC-V as a macro-op fusion oriented ISA, then the C
extension becomes important to be competitive.

I don't know what is better between a "macro-fusion" oriented arch or a "complex-instruction" oriented arch, future will tell us.
