Conversely, we have Oracle suing Google successfully for billions over function and property names. Eventually the Supreme Court overturned the result but how many businesses want a fight that expensive?

It'll be highly dependent upon the type of output it generates.

I've played with it again recently because of the updates around disabling open code and such, and it still strikes me that it's not worth the potential risk.

Even setting aside the "could I get sued for this" question, the value just isn't there; half the time functions are just poorly written, inefficient, or buggy. For very simple actual math stuff (e.g.: a function to replicate any moderately complex spreadsheet function) it seems to work well. It seems to really struggle with common boilerplate stuff like simple HttpServer in Java, Flask blueprints, and so on. It may be bias due to the projects I've worked on, but I don't do a lot of my own implementations of calculating compounding interest rates, incredibly simple array slicing, or testing if a given number is prime.

Exactly. And based on the test mechanism simply requiring a ~46 degree turn to fail, I think it could actually be done in ~300ms per attempt, which would make the maximum solution even lower at ~4 hours. That's of course still a lot better than a traditional mechanism, which even brute force robotic pickers can tear through rapidly, but it's far from "unpickable."

Ultimately, even lengthening the time per attempt wouldn't help save it from attack, because not only is this lock susceptible to robotics, it's easily pickable with audio analysis. Much like the traditional mechanisms that this lock hopes to replace, you only need to analyze one to build a matrix applicable to all of the locks.

It's not unpickable, and the creator doesn't claim it's unpickable, either. So the title really shouldn't include the word.
I mean, the BIOS sets up a perfectly usable text console back in the day when they were adding KMS, and even now UEFI will run one at the native resolution of my laptop, so you can get by without it.

They have them, they just don't default.

It's a 2 edged sword. Full tilt block mode causes insanity but shows just how bad all these devs are at phoning home for whatever. Setting it to some default might be okay for some but still too much/not enough for others. Some people then might think they are protected while potentially nefarious back room deals to get something whitelisted.

> This is a story about how science cannot change the underlying "natural" state of a person.

I think it's easier to look at it as a cautionary take. Many scientists (and engineers, and other types of creators) spend far too little time thinking about the implications of what they create. Certainly that doesn't mean we shouldn't try to improve people's lives, but we should be extremely careful. "First: do no harm" is a guiding principle that medical doctors are expected to follow, but many scientists perhaps don't think about enough.

Was it even ethical to perform this experiment on Charlie, someone who likely did not have the cognitive ability to understand well enough to consent? I wonder about that.

> The illiterate man is lifted above his situation by science.

He wasn't merely illiterate (and he wasn't illiterate; he could read and write, just not well). He was developmentally disabled. He didn't have the mental capacity to learn to read and comprehend better, or to write and spell better.

> I also don't like the linking of one's job to one's intelligence. The two are rarely directly related.

I don't think that's true. Certainly not for the example at hand. I think it's pretty common for developmentally disabled people to hold fairly simple, menial service jobs, assuming they can work at all.

I have a feeling -- please correct me if I'm wrong -- that you're railing against the kind of "not very smart" person who fails upwards into high levels of management at a company. Sure, in that case a person's intelligence was not well-linked to that person's job. But this story is examining intelligence on a different level: not just the ability to learn, but the ability to understand the world around you. This failing-upwards executive may lack the ability to learn sufficient competence to earn these sorts of promotions based on merit, but most likely can understand the world well enough in order to exploit it to gain these unearned promotions.
> Do you really think people st[r]ung out on heroin do so "with purpose to cause public inconvenience"?

No, but as you'll note that is not an element of the crime. It suffices to act in a way that "recklessly creates a risk of public inconvenience, annoyance, or alarm".

I always kinda avoid scifi stories about super-intelligent beings. There's no way one could write about what they'd be like.

But I make one exception - Brain Wave by Poul Anderson. In it, ordinary people become much more intelligent. Their speech patterns change into very few words, because a more intelligent listener would be better at inferring meaning from the context.

> Correction, ID3 is a good start. ;) Id3v2 is ... much more.

You're absolutely correct :-)

> Unrelated, I like your project! Nice!

Thanks for your feedback, you're welcome...

> (I'm not entirely sure what your tool does that isn't done by the standard tagging tools id3, id3tool, id3v2... but that's NOT a criticism. I wrote my own multithreaded-resumable-forensic `dd` and a homegrown replacement for `tar` for instance)

Not much really, it is just a tool that supports multiple platforms and multiple metadataformats all in one static binary AND supports chapters... it may be a bit more versatile and easy too use than existing tools. But that is opinionated.

> wanted something HIGH performance for tunable and batchable splits, silence detection, merges, as well as automatic clustering (!). Those split/merge features, that, I'm guessing you're planning on implement by requiring ffmpeg _AND_ using another library just to wrap it? I'd do in native code and, as a result, performance would be orders of magnitude better.

Yes, I plan to use `ffmpeg` for the first part, but also include `fdkaac` and maybe `sox` or other audio specialist tools to provide better audio. My plan is also to integrate a dependency downloader, that does not want you to install the dependencies yourself, but does everything for you. I'm the author of `m4b-tool`[1], which has also split, merge and silence detection, so I have a little experience in exactly this topic you are talking about (tone is planed as long term successor of m4b-tool, but this will take time). I will use a library called CliWrap[4] to integrate shell execution though, but do it multithreaded to provide more performance.

> I don't use windows (at least, I'm not willing to use windows for any 'pro bono' work ;-) ) but if you were to write your tool in C or C++ instead, or perhaps... have a common API layer of sorts...

If I understood this correctly: C# is not Windows-Only any more, and it is pretty fast on all platforms. It provides Ahead of Time Compilation and a so called self-contained binaries working without any C# runtime or VM... using github actions I provide a full featured monolitic executable binary, but I could also provide a library. C# is even capable of and using unmanaged code, writing drivers and embedded stuff, like RPi... I think it is not a bad language to start such a project, but at least the best I know well enough ;)

> and actually enjoy, helping you out by "gifting" some fast and MUCH leaner solutions for any and all of the audio processing work

It would really be nice to find some collaborators, thank you. There are some C# audio processing libraries out there (like NAudio[2] or cscore[3]), but currently windows only or pretty complex. We'll see... :-)

This was very helpful. Thanks again.

> Whichever view you support, move to a State where you will be comfortable.

This really doesn't scale. Firstly, you can't be upping sticks and moving every time a law you don't like is created (or a law you like is repealed). And secondly, you don't need to care about a lot of issues before you find that nowhere on Earth is satisfactory. Then what?
The irony is that if it wasn’t for intersectionality, there’s a good chance Democrats could have held their traditional ambivalent stance on immigration, and Trump wouldn’t have gotten elected and wouldn’t have gotten those Supreme Court picks. Now, pro choice Democrats are in the tough spot of being totally dependent on the most socially conservative part of their coalition (Hispanics in the southwest, Black people in the south) to win elections.

Half of Black people in Georgia oppose abortion, but 90% vote Democrat. I wonder what it’s going to do to Democratic turnout in Georgia if donors in New York and California make the 2022 and 2024 elections all about abortion.

The most interesting book I've found on the motivations of a super-genius is Notes on the Collection of Transfers. https://www.sidis.net/TransfersContents.htm
3 things to note

1) I think it really depends on how you define "robots". If you defined robots to include servers, many jobs have already been taken.

2) Transitions are slow. Jobs our parents knew don't exist any longer. But it won't happen faster than that.

3) People move on and learn new things. It's great to get rid of receptive tasks that a computer/robots can do. It is liberating. No one wants to wash their dishes or clothes by hand these days.
Those master cylinders are of specific dimensions, variable length and probably mass as well. I wonder if one could analyze the audio frequency spectrum, and/or mechanical impulse response, to deduce the length of the master and work out the bitting.

They claim MASSIVE reductions in crime during the run of this program, over the years 2019 - 2020. Hmmm, what else happened in 2020? Covid and lockdowns, but I'm sure that had zero effect on crime. (In fact the article mentions they had to put the program on hold in 2020 due to the pandemic).
It doesn't appear that there is any new reporting in the posted piece, just a re-write of a 2 year old article.
And there is no independent verification of claims, just police spokespeople and the Chamber of Commerce. For a data-driven project, that seems ... lacking scientifically.

Thing is, by banning a certain viewpoint on an open platform, you are promoting another viewpoint.

Those who want to be vocal about this right now are largely opposed to the court's decision. So this does not appear to be a neutral decision.
Since Meta is a business and not a political forum this seems appropriate. However, it would be good if they help employees relocate to more sane states and/or offer financial assistance to fly those seeking abortions to states that aren't medieval leaning.

This is the kind of stuff that Geoguessr players call "meta" (or "metas").

I personally feel like it's more sporting to learn things like bollards, roadway markings, utility pole styles, and so on, which feel like they're about geography (observable differences in infrastructure or culture that persistently exist in different places), compared to things about Google Maps cars, imagery generations, glitches, redaction patterns, and so on, which feel more like they're about Google Maps itself (historical accidents of how and when the company mapped particular regions).

But if you play a lot or watch streamers talking about this stuff, there will be some kinds of metas that you can't unsee because they may just become obvious to you with time! I felt kind of bad about winning a Geoguessr duel earlier this week because I remembered a glitch meta that I had seen someone talking about on a stream... (you can see it instantly on Geotips if you click on Montenegro!).

According to Pew Research figures from March this year, [0] only 21% of American women believe that abortion should be legal in all cases, no exceptions – by contrast, 77% of American women support some degree of abortion restrictions, although the most widespread position (42%) is support for limited restrictions such that abortion would still be legal in the majority of cases; only 9% of American women support an absolute ban on abortion (compared to 8% of American men).

So, is your position that 77% of American women – including the 42% who support limited abortion restrictions – "hate themselves, or at least hate their sex"? Maybe, rather than they hating themselves, it is you who hate them?

No this is the most neutral position they could possibly take. I'm not sure where you're getting your logic from. I go to work to work, not argue politics. I suspect you and I are on the same side of this argument given this is a tech forum, but I don't to hear it at work. I want to hear it at a protest, over a beer, etc. I go to work to program no to project my politics, and I expect others to do the same. I don't want to discuss or hear about your politics, religion, sexual preferences, kids, or anything else at work and I promise you I won't subject you to mine.
This is why at one point all the big players in open source were hardware manufacturers. The software tries to commoditize the hardware, and the hardware tries to commoditize the software.
I guess you haven’t been to many rallies or protests. People always show up with unrelated issues, and there’s not much you can do about it as an organizer. I helped to organize a protest asking Trump to release his taxes, and people showed up with signs to abolish ICE (immigration enforcement). I went to a rally to get out the vote, and the local congresswoman was drowned out by a woman who wanted her son freed from prison. Politicians will push whatever they think is advantageous to themselves (though the better ones will stay on topic).

Free speech is a wonderful thing, but there can be too much of a good thing. Learning when to shut up can be valuable too, one doesn’t offend people like the parent post.

No. Companies are not conscious beings, but they are monetarily liable for their actions.
I agree with you in part. I never really read the grandparent's themes of "don't mess with nature, scientists full of hubris!" from Flowers. To me it was just a beautifully sad story of gaining something precious, and then losing it, while watching yourself lose it, piece by piece. The idea that it's not something external and tangible, but is a story of mental faculties, makes it all the more tragic.

And we can draw parallels to conditions like dementia. Charlie experienced a full life of learning and decline in a matter of a few months.

I do think of this as a science fiction story. Not "hard" sci-fi, but still sci-fi. To me it's the examination of what a scientific achievement could do, but for a fatal flaw. I think it is interesting and important to the story that Charlie's experience was caused deliberately, and not through an accident or other means.
