Of course he's in the community; he's as far as I know the #1 representative of it to the common people. Some rationalist blogs are all about polycules, some are about being weirdly friendly to right-wing online communities like NRX, and some are about a modern religion they've invented around worshipping AI and effective altruism. He's more on the latter 2 of the 3.

(Probably also what she was talking about with eugenics, since they're extremely in love with the idea of "intelligence" in general, that they have it, certain other people don't because of genetics and the liberals don't want to talk about it, and that it'd be bad if computers had a lot more of it. I've seen this any time I read his comments.)

> I wonder if you also believe that post is just a wasteful collection of philosophy anthropomorphizing misunderstood ML models.

Rather, they're anthropomorphizing something called "AGI" that can only exist in their imagination, decided it's bad, and decided modern AI research is "AGI" because it has the same letters in the name.

nb apparently there's some kind of anti-SSC hater community out there I've never looked up, someone accused me of reading it before I think? I ain't done nothin.
SFC is an enemy of Richard Stallman.

In spite of the fact that the SFC would not exist without RMS, they explicitly supported the attempt to eject him from the Free Software Foundation on the basis of trumped up allegations.

The SFC is Brad Kuhn's attempt to profit off the GPL, which he couldn't do when he was associated with the FSF or the Software Freedom Law Center.
Lots of people only lived in big cities for employment and many of us are enjoying leaving the noise, pollution, crime, and yes, needles and feces encrusting the sidewalks behind. Sure I’ll miss the hustle and bustle of the city, my brick wall efficiency in a converted warehouse, and the fact that there are 11 Starbucks shops within a 2 block radius. But it’s worth the trade off even if I have a dramatically smaller selection of craft IPAs to choose from.
The largest cost is that you are allocating a fixed size stack, and that usually has to be big enough for whatever thread you might run. Virtual threads only have a stack as big as they require, and that’s likely to be fairly small. A lot of thought went into the foot print of virtual threads, we had long discussions about individual fields!
I find it personally amusing that the author is/was a Gentoo developer. Since 1995 I've played with most distros, and used 2 or 3 or so (deb based). The only distro I repeatedly gave up on during installation was Gentoo. This is probably a measure of my incompetance, but highlights, IMHO, why multiple distros existing is important.
No words, really. Commenting to boost the post in the algorithm. How sickening and heartbreaking.
Svelte is probably a better choice than React nowadays. But these SPA approaches start to become inefficient when a single change to the page involves a massive amount of individual DOM operations (whether derived from a VDOM or not) slowing down rerendering of the page. A WASM-driven approach of just rewriting the HTML for a big chunk of the page in one go and letting the optimized browser code deal with rerendering will likely become optimal for some things.
> I hate that all of these apps (Grindr and similar) appear to take security and privacy secondary.... I would be very surprised to find out that Scruff is actually any better.

The average case is quite bad, but I wouldnt generalize it to quite every app. Scruff, for example, does take privacy seriously - both in rhetoric and in their user-visible design decisions.

That's not to say there might not be vulnerabilities (which could be said about any company or service), but they don't treat it as a secondary priority.

Grindr, on the other hand, is actively malicious with how aggressively it sells and/or exposes user data willfully.
what helped me get good?

well I wouldn't say that I'm good. I'm better than I was, sure but "good", man, I dunno. I've been told I'm good but those people were being nice to me so I can't trust what they say.

to get better: do more of it. come to your own conclusions about what works. read other's opinions, and ignore them mostly, because what sounds good when described is rarely actually good when implemented (see: object orientation).

put the hours in. there is no shortcut.

I'm an avid music listener (in my 30s), and it'd be hard for me to name just 1 (or 10 or even 30) of my favorite songs. A couple of albums I keep in high regard came out in the last several years. Also, I seem to wear out music over time: you can only listen to Loveless or SAW 89-92 or Astral Weeks or Velvet Underground and Nico so many times. I know, yes, those albums are some of the best music made, but I don't find pleasure in re-listening them for the 100th time - I'd rather listen to something new.

I probably took after my dad when it comes to music listening. He's in his 60s and still actively searching for and finding new favorites.
This is super interesting, I think this is brilliant way to visualise the ML space, ofcourse there are some topics like topological data science that are not mentioned there like scikit-TDA. But so far its fascinating. AI Bots can help generate code aside visuals (Alphacode style)
The more I deal with the topic of PKM the more I'm inclined to agree. My life tends to compartmentalize into projects with related themes. The themes are the only thing I have to keep in my head, the rest is a matter of orbiting a specific approach and taking notes towards that. Arbitrarily sucking up notes from all my interactions isn't project-focused and raises the noise floor. I could be spending that time drilling and internalizing the stuff I definitely will use, so that it's as near at hand as possible.

A related aspect of this is that there's a kind of implicit scope creep to technologizing your information management, where the end point is to have "Personalized Wikipedia" or something. Well, I'm not building Wikipedia. I am compressing knowledge that is, for the most part, already in Wikipedia. Why would I do the same work twice?

> They aren't saying Linus's goals are stupid. They're saying the methods he's using to achieve the goals are. Which makes sense.

So if lawyers were in charge and rampaged around suing the shit out of every company that made a mistake when using Linux, that would better suit Linus's goals? Only Linus can speak to Linus's goals, but I doubt this is what Linus really wants.
this is probably reasonable .. the others are less so

Is there an Amiga emulator which isn’t subject to the scheduling vagaries of modern operating systems?
It wasn't really for me. While definitely funny at times, the movie (and especially the fights) dragged on for too long, and the plot was so ridiculous that it was tough for me to care about the details or connect with any of the characters, making the emotional finale fall pretty flat. It just didn't really seem like a movie with anything interesting to say IMO, it was more of a visual spectacle than anything. But that's just me - a bunch of people I watched it with thought it was fantastic. What did you think?
> I can easily imagine an ML engagement algorithm that starts to get everyone hooked on pornography

The unimpressive results of all the current recommenders out there suggests this isn't a thing.

- Netflix switched from recommending things you'll like to showing you things they want to promote and pretending you're going to like them. It doesn't seem like their subscriber loss is going to get this undone.

- Amazon's recommendations are famously useless, like telling you to buy another TV if you just got one, and it's not stopping them from succeeding.

So corporations aren't motivated to create a perfect recommender, though maybe it'd happen by accident. And:

- If you give a human perfectly optimized food, they'd get bored of it, and IMO our infinite capability to get bored means you actually want to be producing "imperfect" work by all possible metrics.

I've heard TikTok actually has great recommendations, so I've been staying off it in case it is too interesting :)

> If I'm the creator of the work, I have the copyright to it.

Not necessarily. For example, work for hire, or copyright being assigned to the employer. Or maybe the work itself isn't copyrightable in the first place. There's even a fun provision where US government work doesn't have any copyright in the first place! You might also have transferred the copyright of your work after you created it in a way which doesn't give you any retained rights.
Don't try to read it start to finish like a book. Your eyes will glaze over before you complete 10% of the project.

Treat it like a reference book, in that there will be a certain feature that is of interest to you, so read the part of the code that pertains to that. That section of code will no doubt spark interest in another part, and that is probably what you would look at next.

You don't and very likely won't need to study all of the code in a project, just the bits that interest you.

Lightning Labs | Lightning Infrastructure Engineer, Crypto Protocol Engineer, Platform Engineer| San Francisco | Remote |
Full-time

https://lightning.engineering/
https://github.com/lightninglabs

Lightning Labs is hiring! We’re looking to expand our team to build technology that'll bring Bitcoin to the next billion people. Our current focus is the development and deployment of the Lightning Network, an open blockchain scalability protocol. We push the edge of innovation with regard to blockchain scalability, privacy-preserving smart contracts, and cryptocurrency UX. If you’re interested in one of the positions below, please apply using our careers page: https://lightning.engineering/join-us. And if you know someone who might be a good fit, we'd very much appreciate any referrals.

{Lightning Infrastructure Engineer}:

We're looking for a systems-oriented engineer who will design and build out key components to support the growth of the Lightning Network. These tools will lower the barrier to entry for operating Lightning nodes and enable existing node operators to more effectively manage their infrastructure. You'll work on products such as Lightning Pool (https://lightning.engineering/pool/), as well as other Bitcoin-based backend systems to make Lightning more useable, and secure.

{Crypto Protocol Engineer}:

Experienced systems software engineer versed in applied cryptography, peer-to-peer networks, distributed systems, open source software, and cryptocurrency protocols to design and implement core protocol and algorithmic components of the Lightning Network as well as the Bitcoin Network. Solid programming skills, experience with Go, C, or C++. Prior contributions to crypto protocols and open source software collaboration preferred.

{Platform Engineer}:

Seeking a pragmatic senior software engineer who embraces the DevOps mindset to improve our developer experience. Improve the robustness and security of our internal platform by managing the underlying cloud and cluster technologies, observability tooling, stateful services, and enhancements such as operators and overlay networks.
Nice try big government, but a tax will only increase prices for end consumers and will disportionately affected poor people while actually doing jack shit to reduce consumption.
if only it were so simple to side step personal responsibility. just call it illusory. to what effect?
Funny thing, we used to call those "userland threads" or "green threads", and they were even a selling point for Java before 1-to-1 mapping with system threads became more popular. How long before we insist again on having special OS-scheduler support for those "virtual" threads?'
I used to water a rosemary plant with pee... it worked really well for quite a long time, but at some point it became too much (I think).
I wasn't intending for you to change anything in your comment at all! It was very thoughtful and well-articulated and I really didn't have anything else to offer. I just always zoom in on the "love" keyword when talking about gays. It's just not a keyword term to use anymore.
For Ruby I’d say the closest equivalent would be Fibers with the scheduler support introduced at 3.0. They take a different approach with pros and cons compared to virtual threads, but they are similar.
Responsibly isn't equally weighted. Regulatory capture and decades of insidious 'education' and advertising also tip the scales.

The solution is collective though. Externalities cannot be ignored forever, even if the short sighted grifters die before the world is an uninhabitable waste.
Going on 4 years at a company I found through HN Who Is Hiring.
Yep, the place that built 5 out of 8 of the top market cap companies in the US (Apple, Google, Tesla, Nvidia, Facebook) sure is "commy".
But don’t many (most?) US programmers call () parentheses? I assume non-programmers in the US call them brackets?

1.9M results: lisp "parentheses" -brackets

800k results: lisp "brackets" -parentheses

I admit result counts are more similar if lisp is replaced with “python” or “golang”, but square brackets come up more often for those languages.

Disclaimer: I am searching from google.co.nz, and I presume search result counts are not a great proxy measurement for actual usage!
Ok sure but the point nerdjon and GekkePrutser are making (which I agree with 1,000%) is that it's super selfish to prioritize "creating a popular app" at all costs over protecting people's actual lives. Creating a popular app is great but don't risk the lives of your users!! That should go without saying!
Eyewitness testimony has been called out for being questionable for more than a decade now. So have the less reliable aspects of forensic “science.” Courts have made progress in addressing both through jury instructions and gate keeping on expert testimony through the Daubert process.

For example, here is the current Massachusetts model jury instruction on eyewitness testimony: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/model-jury-instructions-on...

It mentions, for example:

> People have the ability to recognize others they have seen and to accurately identify them at a later time, but research and experience have shown that people sometimes make mistakes in identification.

> The mind does not work like a video recorder. A person cannot just replay a mental recording to remember what happened. Memory and perception are much more complicated.[a] Remembering something requires three steps. First, a person sees an event. Second, the person's mind stores information about the event. Third, the person recalls stored information. At each of these stages, a variety of factors may affect -- or even alter -- someone's memory of what happened and thereby affect the accuracy of identification testimony.[b] This can happen without the witness being aware of it.

Eyewitness testimony also just matters less these days. Today, the trial would have involved cell phone location tracking from the accused showing he wasn’t in the area at the time.

I cannot speak to rape nor Russia vs Germany, but for the suffering of the Poles at German hands I am compelled to add this from my eyewitness family history lest German abuse of Poland be discounted.

It is not often discussed, but millions of Poles, not just Jews or Jewish Poles were killed in concentration camps.

This (sans "millions" which is my own research finding) was my grandfather's observation as a US officer liberating such camps- there were a lot of non Jewish Poles in such places.

"Lebensraum" came through Polish genocide from what I can tell.

ML models in the current paradigm don't have goals nor do they exhibit behavior. They're files on a disk that if evaluated turn numbers into other numbers; they aren't even full computer programs because they have no side effects or control flow.

It's the training program that generates them that contains all those things, and that only runs because humans are constantly fixing the Python script that runs it and then giving it millions of dollars in electricity and GPUs to run.

If you just stop touching it it's not going to develop a soul and eat you.
I think you're confused about what an asset is.

>> "intellectualise social interaction" rings a bell

> I tried to search for what this meant, but I found a few differing ideas that I didn't know which one to attribute to what you meant. Do you mind elaborating?

That was the goal behind me asking... if it did ring a bell; I think you'd know! I pre-plan social interactions, they inevitably never go as planned, then I spend forever ruminating on what I did wrong. Rinse, repeat.

To your concluding paragraph, I think a way to join back up these disparate threads is a reminder that ADHD and autism are both non-binary, spectrum conditions... they're labels slapped on a grab bag of manifested difference->disorder->disability symptoms, hence diagnostic criteria that are: "has to have 5 out of 8 of these factors".
I still play this game today. I managed to carry along an older version of RCT Deluxe (before it was patched up to defeat all the cheats) for all these years, with the cheat program "beast trainer" (or "cg_beast").
The main concern is ending up in the ocean, I guess. Not sure that's supported by numbers though.
I do not recommend this. Use Kicad.

It's not an on-ramp, it's a time-wasting distraction detour from your actual on-ramp.

Every minute you spend figuring out how to do something in fritzing is a minute you could have spent figuring out the same thing in kicad, which you will end up doing eventually anyway, I promise you, garanteed. All this gets you is some badly designed boards and wasted time.

There are gobs of youtube videos for the absolute beginner which takes care of taking you from zero to simple pcb in a few minutes. Then you figure out a lot of other details as you encounter needs for them over time.

It doesn't have to be kicad either. If you don't mind a commercial proprietary product, Eagle is fine too. It's workflow is a little different but not bad. In fact it's an industry standard at a low level.
I can't speak for them, but I can tell you that would add an enormous amount of overhead and risk for the lawyers involved. If you assign them your copyrights, their job is just to find GPL violations from the pool of projects they have the rights to and then initiate an action in court, which they do for a living. Without assignment, they can no longer proactively investigate with any reasonable chance of success, and they have to find a violation that's in a goldilocks zone; they need a GPL author whose rights have been violated and is willing to make a long term commitment to actively participating in litigation, that they know will communicate with them as needed, and who won't suddenly move to Nepal or be convinced by people online that they need to drop the suit or something.
