Ceteris paribus, I would feel safer with OpenSSH than with a new SSH server probably for several years after the release of that new server, simply because OpenSSH is so scrutinized and because there's more things that go wrong with SSH than memory safety bugs. It's been well over a decade since the last exploitable OpenSSH bug. But it would also be a very good thing to have a memory-safe trusted SSH server. This isn't an easy call.
Ignoring the fact that the “one bad day” method is still messed up (would we be cool if i shot my dog in the head as soon as I was inconvenienced?), there is no way to ensure these animals treated well before their slaughter and maintain any level of scale. If you want to pay $60 for a dozen eggs, sure, maybe there is a way to ensure your “one bad day” eggs are in super markets. Otherwise the only way it works is if the welfare of animals is ignored.

To know that you aren’t supporting such violence, it’s easy: just don’t eat animal products.
Given that it is actually possible to implement this idea, I imagine medicine professionals would appreciate it, and there should be enough to make his startup viable.

When talking to doctors, he's not selling his idea or service - he has to first sell his own credibility, and then the credibility of his service. He is claiming that the intended/unintended effects of medicines can be coded into a big searchable table, that his "contractors" have done this, and his service is now usable and valuable.

This too bold a claim, especially from "some random guy". That's why none of the doctors were interested.

In his blog post, he's assuming his product actually has value, but somehow has opposing stakeholders.
Thanks for the feedback on the speed. You'll notice the speed varies a ton.

There are two modes here.

1. Information search - average speed for these traditional keyword-style searches are around 800ms to 1s, with a 90% percentile about 1.3 seconds. These are pretty quick although we still have work to do. That's probably 80% of searches.

2. Question answering - this can take anywhere from a second to up-to 24 seconds for complex searches. With question and answering, searches are more like research - they're ingesting live content and doing semantic search on the content, extracting content in real-time live direct from the sources, and then finding and extracting information to return facts and direct answers. So that's something totally different to traditional links on a results page because it's returning direct information (and then showing results beside it).

To do this, we give the the questions answering a lot more time and we allocate more resources the more complex the question is.

You can see this if you try 2 searches to compare:

1. Information search, say "elon musk latest news"

and

2. "why did elon musk open a tesla factory in germany?"

The aim of the second one is that the system does the work of reading through and finding the right information, rather than you having to.

So you get a direct answer, for me it was:

"There are two unique goals that the Berlin location serves. The first is that it is strategic to lure German automotive talent to Tesla. The second is that it is a statement that Elon wants to one-up auto companies from that region."

Some of our early users tell us this is the key thing they use Andi for, because when it works well, it can save them a substantial amount of reading and research time.

Our aim is to try to support both types of use - complex question answering, and quick information searches. And have the search results work in the way that supports best what a user is trying to do in both cases.

It's a similar idea with navigation (go twitter elonmusk berlin, etc). We know this is a very different approach and has risks because it is so different.

Also, one really cool thing is that as a user, you can actually control the trade-off between speed and complexity/depth of searching.

If you jump to settings, you'll see there's a cool feature where you can adjust this yourself.

The default is "Best bet" - it tries to guess how much time and resource to give to a query based on the question asked. But you can set it to either higher depth/slower speed (but much better quality answers), or faster/not-so-smart. Or in-between.

We have a lot more to do on this. But when you're researching, it can really help to give the system another 10 seconds to save yourself 10 minutes, so that's the theory behind letting people choose. You can also turn off the complex question answering (Deep Answers) entirely on the setting, and then it will be regular speed keyword searching.

You can see the impact pretty quickly with asking questions.

I would say this isn’t necessarily unusual for NK. As far as I know, they’re the only nation state actor known to hack for profit and they’ve committed several of the largest cyber bank robberies ever. Nation state actors have an _incredible_ amount of time, resources, and motivation.
Is he submitting these questions to their API? Probably they would just sample responses from their logs and then have people write the correct answers for it so that if a similar question ever gets asked again they are prepared.

I was given a fantastic cookbook (Joy of Cooking) around the start of the pandemic. I used to loathe cooking. Now I’m hoarding cookbooks and look forward to trying new recipes. Turns out my problem the whole time was relying on garbage-tier internet recipes. Maybe it’s extreme, but I now refuse to make any recipe from the internet. It’s not worth it.
Looks a little like this recent Apple patent for a computer inside a keyboard:

https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/apple-imagines-mac-insi...

Patent disclaimers:

- companies file a lot of patents for products they never build.

- patents sometimes sound like generic "patent on a thing" when they are really "patent on a thing done in this particular way". Yes, we know that there have been a lot of computers built into keyboards in the past.

Sure, but in order to do that, you need to know how to teach people how to want; and then, you have to be able to do that. NB, those two things generally comprise two different skillsets.

You need a product that is powerful enough to give you the leverage to change deep-seated bits of human psychology.

Henry Ford knew how to do this. So did Jobs.

$0.02. I don't want to discourage anyone from building something and making money on it; just adding on to your comment.
I've pushed back against standardized testing at certain points of my life, and I don't think this comment even remotely summarizes my views.

If anything, I would say that my views are the opposite -- homogenization creates a lack of differentiation around skill and aptitude based on questionable science (and sometimes outright pseudoscience) and often leads to an oversimplification of human intelligence in general. It always feels very strange to me that people trying to compress aptitude into a single number say that they're defending differentiation or diversity of talent.

MIT's findings here don't really change my view of the value of SATs, although the findings are interesting and I think they're worth looking into further. I'm not sure "they're more predictive than GPAs" is the glowing recommendation that SAT proponents think it is. You can agree or disagree with me on that point, I'm not here to debate the entire idea of testing or IQ or whatever -- I just want to point out the above comment is a pretty big oversimplification and (in my mind) a borderline complete misrepresentation (I assume unintentionally) of what people like me believe. I can only speak for myself though, maybe there are people out there who do hate the idea of excellence.

Vananda Shiva IS an ecofeminist. I think it highly relevant. Clearly all people are capable of being activists. But in this case, she happens to make an explicit point of her movement being woman led. This is especially relevant in the cultural context of her movement in India.
How do you log into a server for the first time without a password? How do you log into a server from a brand new machine without access to your previous machine or sharing certs?
Thanks for the clarification. I haven't followed the NFT hype much but the one game startup founder I know who talks about it had ideas for permanent ownership in some kind of ... hand-waves metaverse.

Personally I view games as art that's closer to food than a painting: ephemeral, may disappear after being consumed.

>> I don't really have evidence for this, but it's always felt like SAT/ACT coaching doesn't improve scores so much as get rid of some of the "dumb mistakes" that cost you score.

As i learned in college, the real "coaching" was rich parents getting rich kids more time on the SAT by getting psychiatric diagnostic classifications that give you more time.

Time has been the real challenge on SATs for most people beyond a certain score threshold, and money can buy time.
That's not what "cringe" means. To be "cringe", you have to be vicariously embarrassed for the person involved.
No one in the developed world uses their taste to determine if they’re eating a balanced diet. We are so beyond that. So it’s kind of irrelevant what our tongues evolved for.

This is just a version of the fallacy of nature.
How did you know which Springfield he meant? There is one in Oregon, Illinois, and Missouri, and I assume there are a bunch more. I also assume that is why Homer Simpson works there ... i.e., it is a generic city.
There are obviously more than just those tho.

Not that I really disagree with the conclusion. There's not a ton of pre-auth attack surface.
I'm not so sure about that. About 20 years ago, counselors advised taking the SAT/ACT only once, since your score wouldn't really change.

I took the SAT several times. Each time my score went up significantly. My high school ended up creating a new award category for "greatest score increase", or something to that effect. I believe it was ~200 points.

I'd taken a prep course being offered by a local instructor. However, the biggest benefit was from dedicated self-study (Kaplan books, as I recall).
Often it's because it wouldn't make the front page otherwise. In general, society has democratically agreed to upvote clickbait and downvote accuracy, but glad to see that isn't the case here.
>Having a sweet-tooth has been a stab in the back for many modern humans, as it leads to over-consumption of sugar, which can be horrible for one's health.

Sugar is overvalued by taste buds because of its low availability when our taste buds evolved. This argument does not extend to every other taste.

>More on-topic, the craving for the taste of meat

Meat is craved by the taste buds because it is the most nutrient dense natural food... with very few substitutes. All known surviving human cultures eat one of meat, fish or milk; no exceptions. Certain essential nutrients are not bioavailable to us without those.

>has led to the suffering and slaughter of countless animals.

Animal "suffering" is completely arbitrary view based on shallow view of the ecosystem. Cells die all day but do you mourn their deaths? Zebras die all the time in the savannahs but do you think it is a good idea to capture all lions and feed them fake meat to "reduce animal suffering"? From the ecosystem point of view, individual organisms "suffering" is a part of a much bigger thing where it doesn't matter as much as an individual organism would think.

Unfortunately, you have a regime of approved speech under duress. A "culture of free speech" is far different, mainly, participation is voluntary without your person threatened under arrest from a government, but still using said human right in an acceptable manner to advance mankind.

I just can't help but to appreciate the irony of complaining about censorship on one major tech platform while publishing on another major tech platform. It seems Substack is much looser on censorship than other social media, but at the end of the day, anyone can be "deplatformed" from any managed service / platform for many reasons at any time, and they may never even find out why.

Why not run your own (e.g., Ghost) instance and mitigate that risk to protect your content and business upfront?

> I received no inquiry or notice from YouTube. I vanished. In totalitarian systems you exist, then you don’t. I suppose this was done in the name of censoring Russian propaganda, although I have a hard time seeing how a detailed discussion of “Ulysses” or the biographies of Susan Sontag and J. Robert Oppenheimer had any connection in the eyes of the most obtuse censors in Silicon Valley with Vladimir Putin.

Unfortunately in the case of animal wellfare or Bio as the call it in Europe your extra money mostly goes to supermarkets as profit, to the low volume producers and less than 5% actually go towards a better product or animal wellfare. For things like eggs I would be very surprised if more than 1 cent extra per egg is actually spend towards improving the conditions of chickens.

It's hard to wrap my head around the "allergic to yeast" thing. Yeast is present everywhere and in the very air we breath. And as the article described, once something is baked the yeast is essentially dead and inert.

Perhaps it's a quantity thing, or maybe the specific strain used in mass-market yeasts?
Whites also have lower average scores on them. Lower than Asians and Jews.

At the elite level this would make a huge difference. At the state level not at all.

> common, popular notion that standardized tests do not predict anything of value

It's backed up by research, for example: https://news.uchicago.edu/story/test-scores-dont-stack-gpas-...

I don't doubt that MIT's study showed otherwise for their needs. But UChicago is also a top-tier school and is not requiring standardized tests, for educational not political reasons.
It's absolutely a net gain when compared to running gas/coal only. But unfair to say that this produces 0 CO2, like it's often claimed. And this backup CO2 production is very far from negligible.

Similarly, the cost of running gas only should be computed as: cost of gas power plant + cost of gas. And the cost of the renewable option should be computed as : cost of renewable power plan + cost of backup gas power plant + cost of backup gas. You can't magically exclude the backup from the calculation. And suddenly the renewable option sounds way more expensive.
Gotcha. I didnt know they had a cap on the number of models.

That's probably true - there can be good reasons for companies to share their own source code with the customers of their competitors, though.

This exact same argument could be used to dismiss human suffering as well.

I would like very much to eat proteins of the same quality as animal proteins, but made by a fungus or yeast, instead of eating animal proteins.

I hope that one day this would be possible.

Nevertheless, I will never eat food having a secret chemical composition and/or food whose production is monopolized by the sole owner of some patents, as it appears to be the case with this product.

Any kind of food must have a chemical composition that is completely published, because there have been far too many examples in history, of stupidity in assessing what is good or not too eat.

I would not care if some non-essential food has a single-source, e.g. some fancy kind of chocolate.

On the other hand for a food whose purpose is to provide the nutrients that keep you alive, e.g. the necessary daily intake of proteins, it must be possible to be produced everywhere and by everyone, without restrictions.

It is acceptable for its production methods to be patented, but the patents must be licensed to anyone on FRAND terms.

Until such conditions will be met by an animal-substitute food, it cannot really substitute the animal food, except for niche uses, regardless of how well it reproduces the taste and any other qualities of the original food.
Non-proliferation as a movement is only as strong a movement as nuclear-equipped nations are willing to enforce it. I’m not willing to hold up deploying reactors in the US over it, but proliferation is a legitimate concern.

I live in a very rich town, like super rich. I work in tech so am rich by the standards of general population, but by the standards of Silicon Valley.

My child did very well on the ACT. All she did was buy a $35 practice book, which almost anyone can do. Literally this was it. Furthermore, she doesn’t know of a single friend or acquaintance that hired a private tutor.

All the nay-sayers belly-ache about this but for most children, even the “rich” ones, this simply isn’t true. It’s most definitely not necessary.

Considering the weight of the SATs/ACTs you would figure a student would at least buy a cheap book and put in two hours per week for a few weeks in practice. In practice, the vast majority of students who do this do quite well. The improvement is dramatic.

Everyone wants to always blame “the system” which yes, has an influence, but nobody wants to put ANY responsibility on the student themselves.
But you don't need VPNs with IPv6, it has encryption built it and you don't need NAT because every node is directly accessible!
I agree. We live in a golden age of gaming. Steam and all the game stores have a practically unlimited catalog (granted there's a lot of shovelware, but still plenty to chew on). Triple A games with budgets that rival and even exceed tentpole Hollywood franchises. New art forms constantly furthering the boundaries of narrative driven entertainment. Hyper realistic graphics pushing the frontiers of CG and even AI research with DLSS and the like. Gaming can be entertainment, a social activity, a creative tool (There's Minecraft of course, but also check out some of the incredible stuff made in Dreams on the Playstation https://youtu.be/AXtNlgjPb80?t=288).

And on top of all that, there's also innovation in the underlying business models. F2P games that are morally dubious and depend on hapless whales that get addicted to your product and subsidize it for the rest of the playerbase? Sure! Single $60 or $70 purchase without DLCs? Contrary to the author's insinuation, there are plenty of games that still follow that model. Expansion packs! Monthly subscriptions! There's just no other kind of media that even comes close -- where else can you spend $50 and potentially get hundreds or even thousands of hours of entertainment?
