I think what’s needed is a robust bunch of primitives that users can easily combine to do many things. As with any organic system, I would expect the availability of capabilities to spur creativity, the Emacs ecosystem being a great case in point.

But to try and give a more direct answer to your question: I often want to download/backup or otherwise programmatically process content that I routinely interact with online (this could be playlists, emails, messages, whatever). Another interesting example pertains to the “agents” available in “Huginn”: https://github.com/huginn/huginn

It would be nice if more such capabilities were integrated into the browser (or other common operating tools).
My guess is that you can fix both the "need to exit()" and all the other issues that you haven't run into but exist, by making your entry point _start instead of main (which is NOT the first thing that runs in your program; _start is!).

If you `readelf -h` an executable on your system and then look up the entry point it gives you in the executable's symbols you'll see it's indeed _start.

Many meanings of "attack". A year ago China attacked the miners and they mostly left China. A nation attacking the btc network is real, and the miners physically moved.

It is easier to move a PoS validator, and harder to locate the validator in the first place.

Sure, this will help with some initial growth in computing resources, if this is seen as a required goal by an "evil" AGI agent before the destruction of humans. And it will have an easy time to hide in the growing computing industry. But if it e.g. kills all humans, it's suddenly left with a limited number of chips and can't grow beyond that number, without being able to manufacture new chips. It can't survive for really long times due to degradation of its own hardware. It might try to monitor humans first as they build and run chip fabs, debug issues, etc. Those fabs themselves need tools that have complex manufacturing processes of their own. It's extremely complicated. The AGI might be able to pull it off because it's so smart, but I wouldn't call it a trivial task. Unless you say that practically anything is trivial for AGI because of its capabilities, but then the sentence "x is trivial" loses meaning :).

While copilot does great on short simple fundamental problems, it sucks (and requires good attention and experience to find all the bugs in generated solutions) when solving anything more difficult. Although I can totally see how this would make teaching the basics difficult.

That being said, I think Microsoft should be fined $100B every time they give one of their products away for free to students. Hopefully that will be sufficient incentive for them to stop so being so overtly anti-competitive.
The Rarible exchange contract supports all kinds of external royalty interfaces, among them two that Rarible defined themselves, being an early player in the NFT space:

https://hackernoon.com/enabling-nft-royalties-with-eip-2981

ERC721, 1155 & 2981 together act as a toolkit for the encoding of royalty administration.

For example, if an NFT collection owner only implemented one of Rarible’s royalty distribution schemes mentioned above, another marketplace that’s not aware of that interface can simply call the common registry’s getRoyaltyView function. It tries to query all known royalty interfaces on the token contract and translates any response to a commonly useable result.

Collection owners who haven’t put any royalty signaling scheme into their contract can deploy an extended “override” contract and register it with the common registry. This registration method will ensure that only collection owners (identified by the owner public member) can call it

```function royaltyInfo(uint256 _tokenId, uint256 _salePrice)
external view
returns (address receiver, uint256 royaltyAmount);```

The interface also completely works off-chain, so marketplaces that trade assets on alternative infrastructure can still query the creator fee without knowing anything else besides the interface signature of the EIP-2981 method.

PaymentSplitters: Sending NFT Royalties To More Than One Receiver.

Open Zeppelin's PaymentSplitter primitive allows setting up individual split contracts that keep funds safe until their payees claim them, and their receive function requires the bare minimum of gas to run. NFT collection builders can create an inline PaymentSplitter containing the wanted list of beneficiaries and their respective share amounts and let their EIP-2981 implementation yield the address of that split contract.
Yes because often times while I'm unable to recall the exact idiosyncratic keywords incantation that I need, copilot will retrieve them automatically. This saves me a context switch to MSDN docs or stack overflow.

Totally right. What no one's mentioned yet is the immense value of someone who can listen to your crazy idea, and just play around with it. Someone who accepts that many of your ideas, or even most, are crazy, but you never know which one might not be.

That will only be true if mining is a significant contributor to the availability of ETH. Instead, I think that most ETH comes from sellers of existing tokens rather than miners.

I'm sure there will be a list of approved behaviors that will "stop the spread" of the parasites and give us a new way of looking down on people who don't comply.

Seriously though, I hope the debate doesn't devolve into some silly thing about whether insects harbor parasites or not. I'm sure a parallel case could be made for animals, and I don't think we should care.

Making or pushing people eat insects (if that ever actually happens, I wouldn't rule it out after recent events) is wrong in it's own right, and doesn't need some silly disease based reason why it's bad. Let's focus on that (that it's wrong), and not stoop to the level of debating whether bugs are just as safe and healthy as meat.

Won't touch Co-Pilot. Probably you are spending equal time proof reading than _understanding what needs to be written_ in advance. At least that is what I am hoping about. Of course you don't have to proof read, and most things can probably be grasp in a glance. But you rely on a black-box. From a corporation. To me that sounds like agreeing with a dictator.

Wouldn't promise my craftmanship for things I didn't grasp in advance. But maybe that's a culture hindrance. I like it though. I want to know the code I am corrected about.

To reiterate what others have already said about letting your manger decide how / whether to implement this, I have seen an employee be shown the door immediately over something as simple as optimising an excel spreadsheet. Tread carefully, dont present yourself as a hero.. Automation is a sombre subject and should be treated as such.
I think that's amazing on its own. Rather than having to do a leetcode hard on the fly, you can just ask for the solution. You'll still need to know the problem space in order to properly optimize it, but it can save a lot of time.
Nothing. But nothing moves forward without consensus. So you'd need 51% of the network to agree with your made up chain, which would mean controlling about $100 billion in Eth. And then you've managed to destroy a network that you have $100 billion wrapped up in, so... good job? And if you try with less than 51% and the rest of the network slaps you down, you lose your stake (or some portion of it).
They used too, my classes did. I can see not anymore with cost cutting and relying on Google Maps.

But, there was a time where Google didn't exist, and a globe would be in the corner of the classroom w/ Maps that can be pulled down on the whiteboard/chalkboard (boy was that an exciting change!) that showed different maps, from Mercator maps to political USA maps and geographic USA maps.

> Copilot isn’t a derivative work in the sense these licenses usually are understood to mean

The phrase “derived work” is, IIUC, a phrase from copyright law. And you’d have a hard time convincing me that Copilot-generated code is not a derived work from its training data.

> And given that they’re open source code bases I expect licenses to explicitly disallow things, and consider anything not explicitly disallowed as permitted.

That is very much not how copyright and licences work. Copyright law gives the copyright holder the exclusive right to make copies of the work, making derived works, (and to do some other related things, like making a public performance of it, etc.), so to do any of those things, you need explicit permission, i.e. a license from the copyright holder to do it. A license is not a list of things you are forbidden to do; on the contrary, it is a list of things you are permitted to do, which you would not otherwise be legally allowed to do according to copyright law.

To be fair, I know you didn't have much context. I had to look up "tech bro":

Tech bro does not describe me (I agree they should have an eye kept on them though), I'm a 55 year old man who watches LHOTP on a 10 year old DVD player, has 10.5 years of Visual Basic programming, and wears sandals with white socks.

Last week I had to look up "sh*tpost" and "edgelord", and before that "know your meme" when those were leveled at me. Maybe people on the Internet and social media too need to understand, like TV show fans, that it is NOT reality. It also doesn't foster the kind of wonderful, 20+ year marriage we've had--we are BFFs forever my wife and I, like Mr. and Mrs. Ingalls in some ways.

All the nodes that have been online long enough will know that the fake chain is fake. Because it doesn't match the state that they have been observing all along.

So as long as you have no extended downtime, your nodes know what the right chain has to look like. Ethereum dynamically adds checkpoints so that block reorgs can't reach too far into the past but that is mostly a convenience function as it alone couldn't solve this issue.

Now, there is a problem if you are a new participant. Then you can't decide which chain is the right one. You could observe for a while and choose the one that has more validators but in theory, there's the possibility that there's a contentious hard fork going on.

In this case you need to get the information which chain is the right one from outside sources. E.g. like your preferred exchange or the official subreddit.

This is the most glaring difference between POS and POW. With POW, you don't need any outside information as you can just verify which chain needed more work to be created and this is by definition the correct one.

POW leverages physics to be completely self contained for the price of energy consumption.
On the cybersecurity side, risk management is pretty tangible. It's technology governance, and security teams essentially act as a licensing body for tech in an organization, and provide intelligence about existential threats to the status quo of the line of business. Success is anticipating attempts on the org, and demonstrating how they were deflected or mitigated. There's very little that is vague about it. Just this week I discovered a new technique that some malware is using to bypass most sensors - we manage risk very concretely. I know portfolio risk managers who operate on instantaneous feedback about the P&L of their models and opportunity costs.

Where I disagree with the article is that I think the author is seeing an opportunity to frame ideological concerns that exploit uncertainty by calling it risk and equating it to disciplines that he doesn't realize have very concrete competencies and performance metrics. Also, we have technology and economic solutions for our climate impact already. I'm still of the view that if your plan doesn't work unless you take over the planet and deprive entire nations of people of their freedoms, it's an objectively evil plan, and somehow that makes me a counter-revolutionary denialist.
