This is entirely inaccurate and a fundamental misunderstanding of Lisp, both as a language and as an ecosystem. Have you seen [0], for example? It's how to leverage the native assembler of a Common Lisp compiler to build a small JIT-like compiler in Common Lisp.

Did you know Lisp has a disassembled built-in, with the standard library function DISASSEMBLE [1]?

Why would Lisp support these things like "native compilation" are supposedly out of scope?

Does anyone have recommended books or authors for people who like Stephenson?

My primary recommendation is Adrian Tchaikovsky's Children of Time books; their attention to detail is almost on Stephenson's level, although without as much edge in their tone and metaphors. I think most Stephenson fans would like them.

I'd also recommend Carl Sagan's Contact, and any of the Andy Weir books, although these are milder in tone, scope, and world-building.

> Eh, back east water isn’t life and death

You'd have said that in the UK and Western Europe if you're less than 100 years old ... until this summer. Sure, it may not literally be life or death the way it could be if you were lost on foot in the deserts of Nevada, but the prospect of running out of water for agriculture in certain parts of what has hitherto been a well-watered part of the world became quite tangible this summer.

The old dividing line for "agriculture without irrigation" was the 100th meridian. It has already moved at least two degrees east, and there are some forecasts that predict that climate change could move it as far as the 90th. So "the east" is a bit of a mutable concept at this time.
HuggingFace is a company that mainly builds open-source libraries and platforms to support open-source ML projects. They started out with their famous Transformers library and have many other libraries including the diffusion model one that is actually what this application here is using. They also have this model/dataset hub and interactive application platform known as "Spaces". Their goal is to be the "GitHub of machine learning".

Their business model is basically supporting enterprise and private use-cases. For example, getting expert support for using these libraries, or hosting models and datasets privately. You can see more information about the pricing here:
https://huggingface.co/pricing

They reached a $2 billion valuation after a recent round of funding so overall they're probably pretty flush with cash lol

You say:

> Japanese whaling fleets are targeting those exact whale populations that are endangered.

But the wikipedia article you linked basically says the exact opposite - that Antarctic Minke whales are not designated as threatened:

> Their objective is to hunt 3,000 Antarctic minke whales over 10 years, starting with 330 whales during the 2015–16 season.[citation needed] Antarctic minke whales have experienced an apparent decline in population, though the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) indicates that it lacks sufficient data to confer a threatened designation on the species of minke whale.

It also says:

> The 1985 IWC estimate put the Southern Hemisphere minke whale population at 761,000 (510,000–1,140,000 in the 95% confidence estimate).[179] A paper submitted to the IWC on population estimates in Antarctic waters using CNB gives a population of 665,074 based on Southern Ocean Whale and Ecosystem Research Programme (SOWER) data.[180]

So Japan is planning to kill about 300 Minke whales a year out of a population of 500,000 or so (using the lowest estimates from the wikipedia page). That’s about 0.06% of the population per year, which definitely does not seem like enough threaten the survival of the species.

> Correcting people who are failing to convince you of something due to small inaccuracies in their language OTOH fails to teach you anything new at all

In my opinion the inaccuracies in your comments thus far go far beyond mere "language" issues. I don't think any amount of careful rewording would fix them. These are factual and logical misunderstandings that are core to the very point you are trying to make.

I also believe that I am acting in good faith by engaging with the things you have written so far and browsing the article that you have linked. If you have more evidence that you would like to cite to support your views (ideally something a bit more specific than telling me to "research it" on my own - citing the fact and then providing a link to the source is the generally accepted standard), I would be happy to have a look.

You're saying that omniscience is a necessary condition before Twitter can start doing good in the world, instead of bad? This is a non-sequitur.

> Given that limitation, I would argue that the ideal communication medium simply conveys the messages it's given without regard for their contents. What people do with those messages is something that the medium has no power over.

I would argue that this is ignorant of social psychology. Sunlight isn't the best disinfectant, and people aren't rational non-tribal agents who will all hold hands and sing Kumbaya only if they could have totally unmoderated discourse.

I have never felt more oppressed than when my wife was intentionally disallowed from re-entering the U.S. with me during COVID, since we happened to be out of the country when Trump levied his moronic bans against visa holders. It wasn't until Biden became president that she was able to return. If Trump had remained president, it's likely I would have had to leave the country to see her again. We were separated for 15 months, for literally no reason other than Trump's idiocy and a bureaucracy that has no thinking mind of its own. I felt helpless, and I think the scary thing was that I was helpless. No one cared, at all. There was not even a person you could speak to for help or guidance.

It boggles the mind how these prisoners and others can remain even remotely sane during their times in literal holes and figurative holes of bureaucracy while being mentally and physically assaulted and tortured.

While I do agree about the bureaucracy, I believe that these bureaucracies don't have to be this way. But what it requires is that the people in charge of the bureaucracies care about finding deficiencies and fixing them, assuming they aren't the ones directing the non-niceties in the first place.
> "Consider how America treats its poor and its sick."

No matter how valuable we were perceived to be or treated as (by some folk at least) prior to our illness (and subsequent "poor-ness"), or how valuable we're capable of being if only we could get one tiny shred of help or luck dealing with our medical needs, we're treated like worthless garbage and kicked to the curb to suffer miserably the moment we're no longer able to continue as a functional part of the money-producing machine for the rich and powerful. That's the truth of life on a planet where money is literally God to most people.

Steven Baxter is a good one, he’s an ex-NASA guy so he’s got the science cred, and wrote with Arthur C. Clarke a few times early in his career. His Manifold trilogy absolutely captured the modern era of rich-startup-dudes-trying-to-reboot-space-flight about fifteen years ago.

I also can’t recommend Iain M. Banks highly enough; start with Player of Games.

[edit] a little more on Banks… his Culture novels take the best aspects of Star Wars (the drama, but none of the magic space wizards) and Star Trek (the pretention of trying to write about politics, but actually succeeding instead of muddling around), and all written by a guy who somehow maintained a parallel career in Serious Literary Fiction (done via a hack of writing his genre fiction with the middle initial, and without it for the “serious” stuff, thus leading booksellers to thinking he was two different guys).

Simply the best space opera ever written.
‘literally life and death’ is exactly what I mean.

And it doesn’t require being on foot for it to be so. Las Vegas could literally not be more than a tiny town of desert rats without the water rights on the Colorado they have, same with Phoenix.

Even with the issues going on in Europe, crops may die, farmers may go bankrupt - but no one will be literally without water and die from it, or even have to resort to overland tanking.
Yes, because each decision is based on a previous decision, often made by someone else. Sometimes, someone 5 steps back made an awful decision which necessitates making another decision that may also be wrong, but wrong in a way that could leave the next person able to make a correct one.

If I walk into a room and someone asks "how do I deploy this app to the edge" there's 1000 answers that will either be right or wrong depending on decisions about that apps design that were made long ago but will still impact how I have to deploy it.

Just like in Windows and WSL2, Docker support in MacOS relies on a virtual machine running somewhere there. It probably works fine for most things since Apple Silicon has been out for more than a year already and there's plenty of demand for this.

"It doesn't seem so much that it is a legal currency, but all the chaos and suffering the push to make it the primary currency is causing."

Ok, I get it. Making it a legal currency was not a genius move given its volatility. But I understand it as a way to stay ahead of the curb. Whatever people think, bitcoin has a future since there will always be people that believe in it. It's cult like. They won't hear anything but the positive.

But making it the primary currency for a whole country makes no sense at this time. It's a big gamble. It will be to hard for people to deal with the extreme fluctuation. I wish them luck.

The title is sensationalist. The actual title of the linked article is: "What's inside a black hole? U-M physicist uses quantum computing, machine learning to find out".

Can we change the title to something more accurate?
A valuable object might make references to other things. For instance, a route generated by an application that explains how to get from one location to another would be a value object. It would represent a snapshot of the locations along a particular path, but this suggested route would not be identifiable, despite possible internal references to things like cities, roads, etc.
> they should ban all new touch screen controls on all new vehicles built past the year 2025

There could very well be worthwhile things spurred or inspired by things the SLS does.

Logistics has been a strength of the US since WWII. There are very few armies in the world prepared to Go Someplace and Do Something. Most can't sustain big units far from their home base for very long. The US does that routinely.

D-Day was postponed to 1945 to allow accumulating enough resources to overcome any opposition. The fiascoes of the Dieppe raid and Dunkirk made it clear this was necessary. In a way, those disasters helped. Otherwise, there would probably have been a failed invasion in 1944.

Eisenhower was a logistics officer by training and background. Which is exactly what was needed. He insisted on having solutions to all the potential logistics problems before attempting the invasion. These included some exotic schemes, such as prefabricated temporary ports and a temporary fuel pipeline across the English Channel, both of which were built and used. It included much special equipment, such as "flail tanks" that could thrash a minefield and get across a hostile beach. More than that, the backup was in place to sustain the follow-up behind the invasion. Very thorough backup, all the way down to prefabricated Coca-Cola bottling plants.

So Twitter provides a platform that actively facilitates defamation, then the individual and justice system has to spend lots of time and money addressing it, then Twitter gets to pocket all the ad revenue from the entire horrible ordeal? That is not fair or just, even if it is legal. And what about people in countries that don't have a functioning justice system. Twitter assists the defamer in screwing over the individual, making money in the process, and there is actually no path to justice? It's a worldview that's only possible to hold from a position of privilege.

> By such logic, we should have wished the other shuttles had blown up in the 90s too.

Yes. If Shuttle failed faster NASA would be less motivated to make intentionally terrible decisions.

The greatest irony of these defenses is perhaps that if Starship fails, then SLS actually can't get to the moon short of backups that haven't even been decided yet never mind built, whereas if SLS fails you can still just run the rest of the components as-is and switch out SLS/Orion for two pretty much stock Crew Dragon flights.
Guitars being out of tune happens because of the frets, not some lack thereof; most people tune each string with a tuner and/or by comparing to other strings, which means that some notes will be in tune and others will be very out of tune. This is one of many possible motivations (arguably the primary one besides ease of fingering) for tunings other than the "standard" EADGBE tuning: to change which subset of possible chords are in tune.

This is arguably a non-issue for fretless guitars, but those take more skill to play (and I'd imagine getting some chords perfectly in tune would entail nigh-impossible hand contortions even without there being frets involved).

Sorry for focusing on such a small part of your comment. I’m learning about language design (as much as I can) and I don’t really understand what you mean by “double dispatch like Python”.

I think (maybe soon thought) that Python has single dispatch. Since you’ve invented languages and work on them I’m pretty much 100% sure I’m wrong and would love to learn why.

I read https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_dispatch and came to the conclusion Python has “single dispatch polymorphism” because the method resolution is based on the type of the calling object dynamically at runtime and there is no method signature overloading, which means the argument type(s) doesn’t play a part in picking/resolving the method to be called.

If you have time, do you mind explaining or pointing me to some resources?

I used acetaminophen as an example of drug that is killing many more people than grapefruit juice. It's possible we could take a more holistic look and see where else we could minimize unintentional overdoses and dangerous interactions.

The question is what additional measures would reduce--for example, cut in half--the current level of unintentional overdoses and drug interactions that cause liver failure.

What the doctors call polypharmacy and regular people call "grandma has a big bag of pills to take each day" is a serious problem for folks over 65 to pick a different aspect of the same challenge.

In my experience you will get nowhere if you will only explore interventions that "eliminate problems." Reduction in harm for effort and money invested is a better standard.
