If you're OK with transferring tcp state, I don't see why you wouldn't be ok with transferring TLS state, too. You don't even need to transfer the certificate private key. I've seen some systems where the certificate private key isn't present on most edge nodes; session signing is proxied to centralized nodes and the edge nodes just do the bulk ciphered with the session keys, which necessitates sharing the session keys over a network.
Humor is subjective and generational. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Is this really a serious take? The best means of interplanetary communication one way messages and a delayed confirmation. The distances with the speed of light disallows anything else.
Very interested in the papers and the discussion happening with general anesthesia being used on young kids.

Relatedly: had ~15 surgeries before the age of seven back in the 90's when there was zero notion of these nuances, and there's not a small part of me that wants to slide in a mention of "Hey, a lot of this could be second-order effects of medical/ICU CPTSD". Typically the kiddos coming in for multiple surgeries already have a few major medical issues - and so bouncing back from "multiple" operations paints a lot different picture than just one clean-and-done one.

Judging by the quality of the work done and the decisions made (Zuckerberg calls twitter a clown car falling into a gold mine) I don't think their departure would matter too much.
Here's the mental hurdle I have to get over with all this. And call me old fashioned, but I'm trying to figure out how a guy who has himself essentially proved to be a troll is supposed to be the right person to improve the quality of human interaction on the platform. The whole "pedo guy" episode comes to mind. Are my concerns too simplistic here? Somebody help me feel better about all this.
I said Couchbase above but meant CockroachDB. Brain fart, but can't edit the message now. :|
For some reason they downvote you, but your post has some truth.
I really wish EM wasn’t only about people management, hiring and goals but actual technical leadership. I want my manager to care for my wellbeing, be empathetic etc. as the post and common sense suggest, but i prefer he could provide some technical direction to the team (not let the team leads figure it out themselves), collaborate closely with product and leadership, make time for engineering to solve hard problems and tech debt and not just deliver d2d features and so on. I would expect EMs coming from IC roles to have this mindset, but most of the time they are stuck to non technical responsibilities and i really cannot understand why this role has become like this.
The lack of antialiasing in many avionics systems is highly detrimental for reading, in my opinion. The use of monospace makes numeric differences more salient, which I assume is a safety advantage. In any case, nobody is reading many words off avionics.
If you’re genuinely interested in the history, Jimmy Soni's new book, The Founders, is a great starting point.
I didn't have a problem with geometry or trig, but I was always angry at visualization exercises. "Imagine your pain as a ball of healing light..."

But in general I think it would be like optimizing academic pipelines for being left-handed.
I think we're mostly disagreeing on the meaning of sketchy, but it has many meanings. I'm using it to mean "legally dubious, in the sense of being full of scams, blatantly false promises, malware, etc." (I'm also ignoring issues around copied/pirated content). I'm sure Twitter contains some of the above, but they try to minimize/eliminate it.

But I think this is all a distraction from what I was trying to convey -- my point doesn't depend on getting to the bottom of what is meant by "sketchy". Just define X to be some kind of website that has extremely low value advertisers (scammers, etc.):

> [X] websites do have advertisers, just extremely low value ones. Twitter wants to maintain a pleasant environment for the medium to high value advertisers, [...]
I haven't, it's going on the list. The plot sounds remarkably similar to By Dawn's Early Light (also good, from a psychological point of view).
Reflections on Turning 21
They already brought this back as an option you can set.
As long as you can fire them and find a replacement for the same price, why would you ever increase pay? Especially for a worker that is underperforming?
These claims aren’t contradictory when you understand the domain in question: formal verification of C abstract semantics doesn’t scale particularly well. Rust (and Ada) both have restricted memory semantics (particularly around aliasing) that effectively eliminate some of the hardest problems in whole-program static analysis.
The poison pill would only take effect if someone purchased >15% of shares on the open market—going around the board. Elon made an offer to the board directly which they can accept without triggering the poison pill.

Elon submitted his final terms, there won't be negotiations, based on current public statements. As noted by others, the poison pill is not even in actual effect.

I think the tax code even incentivizes demolition in that the taxes for sales of bare land versus land with a structure on it are less.
I don't know if Twitter's particular length limit is applicable to interplanetary communication. It was originally dictated by the arbitrarily chosen data packet size for communicating with cell towers which in turn impacted how large SMSes could be.

Recently tweet limits were relaxed, but it still remains the normal to communicate "significant dialog" through image macros which are extremely unfriendly on transmission size and threaded discussions (multi-part tweets) tend to mesh very poorly with how the social features of twitter work, where certain chunks of the thread often get different levels of promotion leading to incomplete segments of the conversation being conveyed.

I don't really think twitter has any real advantage over any of the other social networks (outside of the explicitly image focused) except through its arbitrary payload limit which, as I mentioned, is no longer a firm limit and often comes with additional auxiliary payloads (like a linked image) to actually communicate - AFAIK the actual mechanics of how communication is executed isn't particularly well suited for this sort of lossy transmission, at least in any way that isn't matched by other social companies. It's much more likely, IMO, that mars based communication would just use emails since that transmission format already comes with the ability to embed images as needed and works well enough that it's survived decades of existence.
That only works if the prevalent and approved opinions make Twitter a happy place for you. For the rest of us though, it's a very political and sometimes evil place.
> Is there a subtle detail about packaging software for distribution as isolated executables that I'm missing?

In practice it's a nightmare, particularly for legacy software that demands a ton of dynamic linking to system-installed libraries.
“Libertarians” are for limiting power of government institutions outside of protecting capitalist property rights.

“Conservatives” are for maintaining the power of status quo elites (in most modern developed economies, that means capitalist elites), generally by marshalling traditional/religious justifications.

These views fit together...rather well, actually.
A bubbled city on mars will not be immune to climate refugees. It's about how many bubbles we would need, and how many people might not fit.

And it's easier to ignore people on another planet. Empathy does not survive distance, and on Earth even a wall is enough to remove empathy.
I can do both. Getting rid of the inner voice took a lot of therapy and meditation and I still struggle; I had it for most of my life.

The "inner voice" is absolutely a real voice, as real as my own; and it's not necessarily the only voice. The voices are not auditory hallucinations—they are very distinctly discernible from sounds I'd hear with my ears.

I have learned how to think without this voice and I prefer doing so immensely, as the voice is akin to vapid calculation, while thinking without it is a sensational experience with feelings and is a much more enjoyable experience, extending beyond the location of where I hear the inner voice and goes as far experiencing sensation throughout my entire body; this sensation can be as vivid as physical touch.

In fact the voice is slower than sensational thinking. It occurs after the sensational thinking and the sensational thinking rarely can occur at the same time as the voice; they very easily become mutually exclusive and the inner voice tends to be the one that dominates.

I hope to reverse this relationship with continued work. Thinking without an inner voice is a much more enjoyable life for me.
Why have both switch and match statements?
I find it amazing that people ever think that there might be a one-size-fits-all solution to a subjective human experience.

Spaghetti Sauce, Fonts.

Sure no one likes dog crap in their sauce, so there are obvious experiences no one likes, but to assume that there is one single one that everyone likes?

Sometimes we get so nearsighted that by reframing the question it seems obvious.
The entire idea behind the Constitution is “innocent until proven guilty”. Not “you’re automatically going to be assumed to be guilty because you don’t look like you belong in the neighborhood.”

Why does it always seem like the people who are on the “margin of culpability” always minorities? Like when Ving Rhames was suspiciously sitting in his own house (https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2018/jul/28/ving-rhames-...)

There are plenty of statistics showing minorities are stopped at a higher rate, convicted more harshly, face higher bail, etc for the same crime when you control for everything else.

So if you should only marry to reproduce, does that mean old people shouldn’t get married? Should we stop people who take steps not to reproduce? Conservatives use to fight to outlaw birth control and it is still the stance of many.

None of these are “Libertarian” stances.
I found that quote strange, as well. Considering that so many of our problems can be traced directly to the constant inner dialogue (in one form or another), and considering how difficult it is to reach a state where you lose the habit, let alone the ability, I also think it was unnecessary. The most habitual meditators still have to work at quieting their minds. If you find yourself in the midst of a rainy storm and are looking for shelter, it'd be strange to first acknowledge the usefulness of water.
Exemptions for religious organizations are typically just part of a larger framework of exemptions for a wide variety of non-profit, civic activities: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/26/501

> Corporations, and any community chest, fund, or foundation, organized and operated exclusively for religious, charitable, scientific, testing for public safety, literary, or educational purposes, or to foster national or international amateur sports competition (but only if no part of its activities involve the provision of athletic facilities or equipment), or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals

Religious organizations are exempt from tax, but so are PETA and the ACLU. Against that background, efforts to strip tax exemptions from churches are a deliberate attack on religious organizations as compared to other civic organizations.

It was a brain fart: Meant to say CockroachDB instead of CouchBase. Oops.

So yeah, it's on my short list. :) I've used triggers in one project recently, but that was literally the first time in five years so it's not as much of a must-have for me.
Serious answer: nobody cares.

Twitter employees can find employment elsewhere if they don't like their new boss. There's no shortage of people that want to work for Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink, and Elon's other businesses. Twitter is no different.
doesn't 'divisive' generally mean to divide, as in separate into opposing factions? What you're describing seems more like 'diversity', which is pretty different I think.

Cash comp is around 800K pre tax, to me it's worth it; I'm able to push tons of cash into my retirement accounts and do things like purchase a vacation home.

I've been doing it for the past few years, and it hasn't had a negative effect on my mental well being or family relationships. I work extra here and there, sure, but so does everyone, and it has more to do with "we need to do this at this specific time" than any actual extra work needing to be done.
I think Twitter could actually financially benefit from lessening their head count. It's not an incredibly profitable company, and could do with changes to leadership and direction in terms of their lagging performance compared to other tech companies.

At this point, you’re just betting that structural reform to NIMBYism won’t happen. If zoning rules change, the market is toast. And political pressure to reform zoning is only going to keep building.

Serious response: Wouldn't that be good for Twitter to get rid of those people? It's like when Coinbase offered people a payout if you're not 100% onboard with there mission and told people to stop talking politics.
Stanford AI Lab Papers and Talks at ICLR 2022
That was my first reaction too, but on reflection I think the cases are distinguishable. I do say the words "I agree with <Bob>" in meetings, but only when I am acknowledging (and thereby unintentionally endorsing) that there's a difference of opinion. Usually the subject of the difference is already on the table and doesn't need to be spelled out.

By contrast, when I am crediting an idea it's because I had to reintroduce it when it seems to have been dropped; it's not the current subject of discussion. So I say something like "I liked <Bob>'s idea from earlier, to <frobnicate all the bangwoozles with imaginary polarity>".
It took years, sometimes centuries, to understand that in some industries a take over should get a regulatory approval. Maybe a central social media platform with enormous influence on public opinions, should be too.
Exactly this. Musk doesn't seem to have any patience for political nonsense - from either side of the political spectrum. The kinds of employees that would do this likely aren't a culture fit in a Musk-run operation, where pragmatism is the order of the day. You can always find another employee who isn't a PIA.

> The innovation in AI really seems like it is being made on a thin line of engineering and compute.

This perfectly echoes my own thoughts. The advances being trumpeted in AI are functions of hardware advances that allow us to have massively overparameterised models, models which essentially 'make the map the size of the territory'[0], which is why they only succeed at a narrow class of interpolation problems. And even then nothing useful. That's why we're still being sold the "computer wins at board game" trope of the 90s, and yet somehow also being told that we're right on the verge of AGI.

(OK, it's not only that. There's also a healthy amount of p-hacking, and a 'clever Hans effect' where the developer likely-unconsciously intervenes to assure the right answer via all the shadowy 'configuration' knobs ('oversampling', 'regularisation', 'feedforward', etc). I always say: if you develop a real AI, come show me a demo where it answers a hard question whose answer you - all of us - don't already know.)

[0] Or far larger, actually. Google the 'lottery ticket hypothesis'.
It does seem odd that the example of enforcement is a very interpretative reading of a center right view, and the examples of non enforcement are every other direct call to violence.
I assume that the primary conveyance of data would just be a hard drive (or other storage method) actually sent to mars with the mission. Just like the bundle of wikipedia you could order on a CD, curate stuff of particularly high quality and send it with the crew.

For live transmission I think signal issues will cause everything to need to be pre-buffered basically to completion so streaming is not a realistic thing to consider. For instance, twitch is probably just flat out unless we have some pretty insane developments in general data transmission reliability (probably including FTL data transmission which, who knows, might some day be possible through entanglement).
> The best means of interplanetary communication one way messages and a delayed confirmation.

I mean, yeah - my whole point is that's not far from what twitter is already. Musk is getting a social media platform full of users that's tailor-made for interplanetary latency.
...until Apple releases the next generation that breaks it. It's a bit sisyphean.
Off topic a bit - "Halodi Robotics (company he's joining) intends to produce thousands of humanoid robots by 2023"

Are humanoid robots just around the corner? Musk claims Tesla will have a "prototype" humanoid robot this year. I dismissed that as Elon hype, but have I missed this coming?
> It was originally dictated by the arbitrarily chosen data packet size for communicating with cell towers which in turn impacted how large SMSes could be.

The current limit was not.
I've no doubt Elon would be happy for these people to quit so that he doesn't have to fire them.

The real problem with PHP was always the standard library and its many caveats, outright bugs, and inadequacies, rather than the PHP language itself (there's a few language issues as well, but I found those less painful than the standard library).

A few of these things have been fixed, but by and large the situation has remained unchanged for a long time. It's not an easy problem due to compatibility reasons; adding new language features and such is comparatively easy.
It's called acting like a professional. Nobody actually likes the class clown because he's using humor to mask the fact that he's an asshole. Don't be the class clown.
You invented a fake mental hurdle that you can't jump over. You setup a strawman argument that you yourself can't see past?

Improving human interaction isn't anyone's goal. Imagining there is a "right person" is fake.

Why are people imagining the network which invented contextless hot takes is somehow now the most important public square which must be protected from what? Twitter will be destroyed and we won't have what?
You can do that exact setup just fine with Hare only being able to compile for Linux (or FreeBSD). Providing a Linux runtime environment to run code that targets Linux is WSLs whole purpose.

So freezing the surface of the rail so the detritus freezes and disintegrates should do alright, but I wonder how the line or section of line could get taken out of action when the line is already below freezing. Wouldn't it become a layer of ice then, or is that when we get the laser out to heat the rails?
I don't mean this as the attack it's going to sound like, but your comfort isn't a concern.

We've seen the social media companies work in unison to censor important information that later was proven to be true. Examples are abound and I'm not going to debate them here.

I'm hopeful that will come to an end. This kind of censorship only works if "everyone" is doing it. With the reduced censorship, there will be lots of nonsense I'm uninterested in. I will not follow nonsense accounts and will simply block them if necessary.
dont they have too many employees?
Serious question: How come he is banned forever?

It’s definitely against free speech, I’m with Musk on that one.

If he (or any other person) does something against some written/objective rule then sure ban him temporarily. But permabans should be only for posting illegal stuff.
True and agreeable, but I think more and more people are realizing and fighting this.

It's a bit like with climate change. We're not going to like what we need to do to stop it, but we must do it.
That's a great question, I'm not sure. Could it be because I just had neck surgery and they didn't want to risk infection or damage to the area? I don't have the medical knowledge to know if incompetence factored into the situation at all, but I suspect it did.
I really hope this thing succeeds -- right now the Apple Watch has almost no viable competition, and Apple has consequently been content to basically stop iterating on it.
Mr T will be tweeting again!!
Pedo guy wasn’t a troll. Musk believed that a man of a certain age that lives alone in Thailand might be a paedophile and this wouldn’t be the first example.
