Behaviors observed by others is far different from experiences of people who are actually autistic. Just because behavior (an outward expression) is not always consistent does not mean the label is useless.

Even as a neuro-divergent (and very likely autistic, but not diagnosed) person I struggle to understand my actually diagnosed autistic childrens' (plural) experiences.

One thing I think is fairly common is the sensitivity to pain (physical or emotional) is typically much stronger to the point of trauma that would be nothing for a "neurotypical".
Whether or not that trauma is expressed outwardly (or in a specific way) varries greatly from person to person.

Right and that’s why it’s Autism Spectrum Disorder. It’s a rather broad definition that includes a large cluster of different traits that manifest themselves in various ways within each individual. The traits of Autism and Asperger’s had a lot of overlap so it made sense to encompass it as one umbrella. Asperger’s reputation was malevolent and it colored the science in significant ways, but that wasn’t the primary driver for the change.

It’s a common misconception that the ASD spectrum is assumed to be scalar of magnitude, from “high functioning” to “severe”. In fact it refers to a spectrum, ie:
> a mapping of a range of magnitudes to a range of qualities

Here is a good article that explains the distinction well:

You should talk to disabled folk about how they are often treated by doctors. It's often a version of average people telling them "if I had what you had, I'd kill myself" (a disturbingly common statement), but with the added dimension of having a lot of power over the patient.
Because almost everyone doesn’t know what AGI is or why it would be dangerous.

Among the people who could know that it’s dangerous, many of them don’t accept it because it conflicts with their existing worldview too strongly.
I run a business. Our reach per post , on FB, is 30-40% of our followers.

The reason for this is we don’t just post 24-7 about how amazing we are.

We post 1-2x a week, and our followers genuinely like us and are fans of the business.

So… the changes on FB haven’t impacted all businesses in such a negative way.
"Vinyl" would make more sense in this context.
To put some numbers on it a piano goes from A0 (27.5 Hz) to C8 (4186 Hz). Most vocalists and most instruments you are likely to hear will be somewhere in that range.

A 6 string guitar for instance goes from E2 (82 Hz) to E6 (1318 Hz) for 24 fret electric (classical guitars typically have 19 frets and go to B5 (988 Hz) and acoustic guitars have 20 or 21 frets so go to somewhere in between).

Popular singers with high notes are Mariah Carey who goes up to G7 (3136 Hz), Christine Aguilera who reaches C#7 (2217 Hz), and Prince who could hit B6 (1975 Hz) [1].

Plain old analog telephones and, I believe, early cell phones had a voice band of 300-3300 Hz.

They would have no trouble with most of the notes in the upper parts of the aforementioned ranges, except for the top 5 notes of a piano. As you note you'd change the timbre, but you'd still have the right notes.

Low notes might be a problem though. If you lose everything below 300 Hz that would cut out most of the left hand on a large majority of piano parts. On guitar it would cut all the notes that cannot be played on the first strings except for one.

That would change the notes. You'd lose the fundamental of a lot of notes just leaving the overtones, so it would look like the musicians played a higher note.

My guess is that when they were processing the song database to generate the hashes they put the songs through a bandpass filter the was smaller than the frequency range of the most limited device they supported listening on. Then when listening on any other device they could filter it down to that so those hashes would work.

“When I was young, I had to choose between the life of being and the life of doing. And I leapt at the latter like a trout to a fly. But each deed you do, each act, binds you to itself and to its consequences, and makes you act again and yet again. Then very seldom do you come upon a space, a time like this, between act and act, when you may stop and simply be. Or wonder who, after all, you are.”

I'd argue the "experiencing unbearable suffering" part is redundant anyway, since "I'd literally rather die than continue to experience this" is about as close to a definition as you're going to get.

And while any standard of "sustained" and "prospect of improvement" will have their edge cases, that's arguably still better than either absolute of availability.

The problem is ensuring it's truly voluntary, which seems rather difficult

> If you take the train to Bakersfield you'll be in Bakersfield without a car

And if you live in SF or LA and are going to Bakersfield to visit friends or family, that won't be an issue at all. And Bakersfield will likely densify a bit with HSR. And maybe it'll cause higher ridership on the currently limited local transit options, allowing them to expand routes and increase frequency, increasing their usefulness to the local area.
My opinion on this is that it's purposefully slower to browse through titles so you can't ever create a full mental map of all available titles. That way it feels like you could still find something new if you just tried harder.

the_silver_searcher and ripgrep are similar (and inspired by Ack). I switched from ack to the_silver_searcher years ago as it's quite a bit faster (or was at the time anyway, not sure how fast Ack is now), and then to ripgrep because it has the -g option (only search files that match a pattern) that's handy sometimes.
I'm skeptical of the "one device" future dream when so much of Apple's revenue comes from selling multiple devices for different form factors. Why would Apple want to sell you one device when they could sell you an iPhone, an iPad, AND a Macbook?
To clarify what this means, since things can get confusing with subtle differences in wordings:

* stage1 is when zig is built from C++ code[1] (the "bootstrap" compiler) using system C/C++ compiler toolchain.

* stage2 is when zig is built from Zig code[2] using stage1.

* stage3 is when zig is rebuilt from the same Zig code[2] using stage2.

Before today, zig would give you stage1 by default, and you could opt in to stage2 using `-fno-stage1`.
After today, zig gives you stage3 by default, and you can opt in to stage1 using `-fstage1`.

In all three cases, LLVM is being used. Although Zig has started to fully self-host by providing backends that have no dependency on LLVM, none of these fully self-hosted backends are complete.

Why bother self-hosting? Because:

* Zig produces smaller, faster binaries than C++ that use less memory[4]. Case in point: the new self-hosted compiler is 1.5x faster than the C++ implementation and uses 3x less peak RAM.

* Development velocity in Zig is much faster than C++, and debugging is a breeze in comparison due to Zig being much safer than C++ and having better debug tooling. Similarly, comptime features let us add more assertions and debug checks that are not possible in C++.

* Zig compiles much faster than C++.

* Zig cross compiles better than C++ making it easier to create builds of the compiler for every target.

* The self-hosted compiler does not need a softfloat library dependency to support f16 or f128 operations.

* Zig's std lib data structures are incredibly useful, especially compared to the C++ STL.

There are still many known bugs; not every project will be able to upgrade immediately. See the full upgrade guide [3] for help deciding when and how to upgrade.

How is this possible? If TCP is done on the host and TLS on the NIC data will need to pass through the CPU right? But the slides show cpu fully bypassed for data
I’ve actually taken the bus from LA to Bakersfield and the train onward to Oakland. Both were packed. Bakersfield is not a prosperous city by any means. I doubt car ownership is any higher there then in LA. The people that live there deserve to be able to travel comfortably to nearby cities without having to have to put in the expense of owning a car.

The area around the current Amtrak station is actually quite walkable, with some transit serving it (I’m not so sure about the planed HSR station north of downtown, though hopefully they’ll make some improvements before it opens in 2030).

They pretty much chose the most expensive route possible, requiring long urban viaducts and numerous tunnels through seismically active areas. It is probably unconstructible, but the engineering consultants made out.
No need to quote a security expert to realize that.

A language that mixes code and data as the same variable type, with only a single missing quote needed to turn any variable into a full RCE. On top of that, add all the obscure syntax, stringly typed data for everything and with whatever measly error handling it actually does support being defaulted to off. Guess what you get.
I share the same pipe dream. The Zephyr is a second class passenger service on old freight lines. They won’t be able to retrofit high speed rail on them, Amtrak spent enormous sums for the Acela and it only beats the Northeast Regional by 25 minutes between NYC and DC over a three and a half hour trip. The political gridlock to extend such a design across the Great Plains and through the Rockies pains me to imagine.
iPhone+ iPad revenues compose ~65% of revenues.

Mac revenues are ~10%.

They are allocating people to where they expect to make the most money. I don't characterize that as coasting, just business sense.

Overall, I still agree that Apple needs to do better with Macs.

Also, Central valley is not just an agricultural place: "On less than 1 percent of the total farmland in the United States, the Central Valley produces 8 percent of the nation's agricultural output by value: US$43.5 billion in 2013." From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Valley_(California)

My company "allows" USB sticks but they will encrypt any files on it with key tied to that machine. Had a tech updated a config file when after this was silently rolled out and poof line down for the day as it couldnt be used to reimage systems on the embedded pcs.
Not presuming that might focus your current priorities in life if you think the tech is reasonably likely to come about before it's too late for you and be expensive for a long time, like you may want to focus more on getting a higher paying job, more frequently asking for raises, or switching companies to make more money, better controlling your spending and trying to save/invest more wisely...

There's a moral argument I could make that suggests even with high costs lots of people would get it anyway out of a sense of civilizational fairness, or a history-of-technology argument I could make about tech getting cheaper over time, but I think the argument I like best and that works on its own is just pointing out that there's a huge economic incentive to government and society more broadly to provide such technology to everyone even for free (from their individual perspective at time of treatment).

On the production side is the incentive of having healthy citizens who don't have to stop working on account of age. There's something like 16% of the population just in the US who are older than 65, something like 20% of them are still working, and some of those not working would be more than happy to go back to working but can't because of age-related issues (the final one being death). Adding some of them back to the economy would be a nice boost worth paying a lot for.

From the spending side, currently governments subsidize medical treatment for lots of people, sometimes even for everyone and even for brand new technologies like mRNA vaccines. There's a huge network of so-called insurance providers which also play into this; some things are fully covered by a plan while others are subject to more complicated rules. The dynamics of how money actually flows around and who really pays for what are complicated but society as a whole is currently paying a lot of money for the benefit of individuals. So we can expect longevity treatments to be subsidized and affordable for some people to some extent because that's the case with every other medical treatment. We can expect it to be a large number of people, trending towards everyone, and heavily subsidized if not otherwise affordable, trending towards free (from the individual perspective), because of the nature of the 'disease' (age affects everyone, like a global pandemic) and the consequences of treating it or not. We already know the consequences of not treating aging, and a lot about their expenses. So much is spent just on end-of-life care (for US Medicare alone, 13%-25% of its budget is spent during recipients' last year of life) let alone all the age-related issues leading up to that. The government or society more broadly spending money on individuals now for otherwise unaffordable rejuvenation tech can make a lot of sense when the alternative is spending a lot more money on them not too much later for unaffordable end-of-life care.
What exactly stops LA from having any working public transit in the first place?

Formal ("legible") land tenancy rights actually benefit poor people who might plan to make durable improvements to the land; this has been made especially clear in the work of development economist Hernando de Soto. This is not incompatible with customary land rights vested in a whole community (as discussed in OP) since the two apply to very different scenarios.
I wonder why cloud vendors, even AWS, wouldn't invent a modern remote desktop protocol that works cross platform in easy way such as through ssh protocol that may perform at near native performance and they may just have a wider use case for cloud servers to increase their revenue. Of course it helps other vendors too but no one loses including the users.

To be honest I think the debates over the route miss the main issue, namely why the project is so expensive. If we could bring costs down to Spanish levels (not a country that is known for its frugality!), we could build both a direct SF-LA route and a route that hits the Central Valley cities, along with spurs to San Diego and Sacramento, and still save more than $40 billion over what the current SF-LA line is expected to cost.

Instead the debates get reduced to "we should build this no matter what the cost" and "we should cancel the project entirely." There doesn't seem to be much interest in digging into why the costs of the project are so out of line with other countries. (Which, to be fair, is a hard question to answer).
I think if/when we get to the point where people with browser based workloads can just sit down at a desk and have the monitors and keyboard automatically connect to their phone, more hardware intensive software will quickly move to the cloud.

What tech stack does this use?
The key point in this Twitter rant is that the SWEs who understood the Mac (and NEXTSTEP, for that matter) have aged out. Most everyone has retired or moved onto other opportunities. There's very few of them left at Apple. And they're often overruled by younger managers.

Apple is hiring tons of fresh new SWEs who have no understanding, nor desire to understand "The Mac Way".

I'm not saying this is right or wrong, the world needs to move on, but it's a punch to my nostalgic gut.

If you're hanging onto the Mac out of some belief that Apple will re-find their way WRT macOS, don't. That train left the station years ago. It's past time to move on.
Yes. It was a warrant which returned a couple percent interest on the balance. It said I could take it to a bank and cash it like a check in a few months, which I did.

I guess it was a bit like an involuntary bond.
You make a lot of awesome points.

The lesson I derive from Haskell is that "If it compiles, it will work"

1. is inflated nonsense

2. has a lot less to do with Haskell-the-language than with Haskell-the-type-system

I have observed a similar phenomenon with Rust. That statement is not perfect, it's hyperbole. If it compiles, it doesn't mean it will run (otherwise, why bother writing code? We just write function signatures and call it a day).

But Rust's type system is incredibly sophisticated, just like Haskell's.

And guess what... Rust supports mutability. It doesn't just support it, it encourages it. It tells you "Step over that fence, it's okay, I got your back".

It's so liberating.

The secret here is not functional programming. It's not immutability.

It's a sound and powerful type system.
Well said. HTTP/1.1 or below is HTTP for the people, mostly developed by academia not "tech" companies or their service providers, e.g., CDNs. HTTP/2 and 3 are HTTP for "tech" companies and their service providers.

If the technical limits of HTTP/1.1 limit the amount and effectiveness of online advertising and behavourial tracking, or if it limits the amount of time people may potentially waste on the "interactive" attention-grabbing www, then that is a benefit, IMHO. To put it another way, if the technical deficiencies of HTTP/1.1 limit the viability of "tech" companies then this is a benefit, because "tech" companies are responsible for attaching surveillance to commercial and recreational web use that I would prefer not to support.

HTTP/1.1 and below were for a less commercial web not controlled by Google.

There is no good public transit even within bay area (where SFO and SJC are located). Without public transit HSR is close to useless. How HSR will make public transit to appear?
> 1. You want to get from SF to LA as fast as possible;

This is a dumb goal, and a total misunderstanding of the whole point and benefit of a rail system.

The real benefit of rail is that you can have stops and integrate the high speed rail with many other regional rails and local transport solution in order to build a sustainable practical transportation system for the whole state.

We are not talking about 100s of stops, you take a few stop in a few places where you have 100'000s of people living. A system that doesn't just connect 2 things point by point but rahter all cities directly to the next closes large city and the next closes after that.

HSR should be the backbone of a transportation system that enables as many people as possible to live without a car. Its far more important to prevent people from driving all those inside of California routes with their cars, then it is to prevent non-stop travel between SF-LA by cars or planes.
It is mandated to take under 2 hours and 40 minutes between LA and San Francisco, not 4-5 hours.
> The result is its widespread adoption in its niche

And everywhere else, unfortunately.

Go is an overreaction in the opposite direction. In 2010 I can't agree that there is a good reason to make a language without generics and reasonable error handling from the very start.
