You can certainly do both, but you shouldn't.

People are not resources: each one of them will do different work and different amount of work. They are never interchangeable, and they don't even behave the same over time. A frustrated or bored "resource" will do lesser work, but as long as you refer to them as a resource, you'll miss on that nuance.

It's not that hard to consider them people, possibly even people by names in such a small company as yours.

> I find it to be much more invigorating and useful to assume the world is real and worth engaging with wholeheartedly.

I reject the dichotomy.

This universe is the one we have. Engaging with it wholeheartedly is the right way to go.

That doesn't mean it cannot be a simulated one. If it is a simulation, we might exploit that fact. Finding glitches can lead us to a deeper understanding of things around us. Gaining root on the machine our universe runs on is the ultimate sandbox escape. In my book that thought is invigorating and worth engaging with wholeheartedly.
I think English is the exception rather than the norm, many languages encode politeness and formality within words and variations of words themselves, although where the differences are encoded may change. Eg, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_pronouns_in_Portugues...

> I chose my language precisely. The paper is much more definitive than you're claiming, beginning with the title: "The Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan was the early epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic."

You may have chose your language precisely, but you've read meaning into the text that wasn't there.

An epicenter is NOT where a thing started, and it's not in any doubt to even the most die-hard conspiracy theorists that the market was "the early epicenter". The fact that the initial major spread event happened there is pretty clear, the question is where did the virus originate - where exactly did it become the coronavirus we know and love? Did it mutate into that form by being passed between animals stored in the market? Was it brought to the market from bats caught in the wild? Did a lab employee doing highly sensitive transmissibility research pop to the market on their way home to give their spouse a hug?

The idea that these are "settled facts" flies in the face of papers like this that go to great lengths to hedge their language. There are things we know. There are things that are likely, or less likely, or unlikely. There are things we have been prevented from knowing.

There are lots of opinions. There are people with settled opinions. There are settled opinions that have come about with the best of intentions (worries about stoking sinophobia and anti-science thinking, worries about lack of accountability and governmental deceit). There are those shouting their "truths" with the best and worst of intentions, whether aiming to promote truth, or peace, or clickbait.

You may have chose your language precisely, but your language is shouting about your settled opinion, not settled facts.

(P.S: "The paper is much more definitive than you're claiming" - since the sentence I wrote was just a chain of quotes from the paper, without any real commentary, I'd be interested to know how you feel the paper was "much more definitive")

Ridiculous amounts of US weaponry are still dependant on JOVIAL, a slightly younger language whose claim to fame is adding what many people would now call "structs" to Algol.

Large Language Models as Simulators
Correct.

Further, while I support a sugar tax, on public health grounds, I'd much rather we stop subsidizing sugar production (esp HFCS).

But ending subsidies for corn, sugar beets, etc. is still a non-starter. Because Electoral College and US Senate.

So we're stuck with virtual signaling our displeasure towards harmful agricultural policies with impotent measures like soda taxes.

Meanwhile, like this OC suggests, we absolutely should be investing and subsidizing in healthy drinking water. It's CRAZY that people in places like Flint MI and Jackson MS cannot safely consume their own tap water.
I stand corrected. Weirdly, the European Union website (which I didn't read carefully enough earlier) contradicts itself on that point:

"Entering or leaving the EU after 3 June 2021 with cash or certain valuable items worth over EUR 10 000?
...
"all travellers entering or leaving EU territory are already obliged to complete a cash declaration when carrying EUR 10 000 or more"

Besides your points, i've found Julia to have deceptive marketing about speed. I've found it to be super slow, mainly when writing expressive code. So then it boiled down to writing ugly code which turned out to be a little less slow.

I don't think the article even attempts to answer the question. To my ears, Rachmaninov is not radical, rather someone who created his own branch, veering slightly away from late Romanticism. His harmonies and passing notes almost defy the idea of "extended chords" but remain tonal; there's even not much of the chromaticism often found in the works of composers less radical than the Second Viennese School. Nobody followed in his style, AFAIK, not unlike Bruckner's case. Rachmaninov is more of a lone star than a radical.
OK, so if we assume that, then is public health worse in Europe because smoking rates are higher than the US? How about higher alcohol consumption?

Using life expectancy to judge the quality of a healthcare system or quality of public health efforts is like judging car quality by how nice the body work is. It's a component, but a relatively minor one in overall quality.

What's the actual reality of ML jobs. Is it possible to land an ML job?
I've been seeing this for a while people saying that ML is not ready to be deployed and people who works in ML are just spending their time cleaning data(i know it is an important part), the same for DL too. So is there any point in aiming for ML carrier. If there is not much work going is there a need for more devoloper's.

In tldr;
Is it possible to land a job in ML/DL. Is there any point in landing this job in the next 5 years.
Some early ATMs might have been effectively green screen terminals calling into CICS or IMS interface.

These days it's more likely that the COBOL is somewhere in the IMS transactions (IBM bragged sometime in last decade that ~80% of ATM transactions are implemented on top of IMS at some point).

IMS is a navigational (CODASYL) database system with iirc a form of application server - what you'd call today a NoSQL database :P - designed for Apollo project supply chain handling.
For the semantic side of things, could an LSP server be used? Building diffs on top of that would be very handy.
LH2's extreme mass-energy density will make other aircraft unable to compete, because the weight savings may be sold as additional paying cargo capacity.

That presumes a joule of LH2 is the same price as of kerosene. But LH2 may end up much cheaper, increasing the gap.
im not bashing python. im simply saying that there is nothing stopping extension of common lisp through libraries (see coalton as a recent example of this in cl) as happens in python (eg numpy). that cl is ansi standardized is only a plus because it gurantees to me that massive portions of the language (the whole standard) will allways remain the same
The alternative is building and sourcing things locally. This might not be feasible in the case of key primary materials (can’t build cars if there’s no steel) but a lot of manufacturing was moved overseas simply because salaries there were lower (which is changing) and the environmental laws were weaker (which is also changing). It’s not inconceivable any more that local is preferable to outsourced, and it might even be cheaper in some cases.
I wasn't aware that C and C++ standards are ANSI standards. Good for them then :). Sloppy CL.
https://github.com/jpalardy/vim-slime is a terrible SLIME to be honest! Wait! It is not even a SLIME. It just copies text from one text buffer and pastes it to another Vim buffer which is probably running a REPL. "Probably" because who knows what the target buffer is running. vim-slime does not care. This is not Superior Lisp Interaction Mode for $EDITOR (SLIME) in any way.

vim-slime does not connect to any Swank server. It does not understanding Lisp s-expressions. It would happily copies any random text into any random REPL and call it job done! Lisp interaction mode is much much more than just copying and pasting text around. A superior lisp interaction mode gives you live debugging, handling conditions, inspecting variables, navigating the stack frames, ... Vim-slime cannot do anything like this because, well, it is not SLIME! It just copy-pastes stuff around. Vim-slime is a disingenious and misleading name for a project that is not SLIME.

If you really want to use Vim, do yourself a favor and use https://github.com/kovisoft/slimv and experience a true Lisp interaction mode. It contains an actual Swank server and an actual Swank client that connects to the Swank server to provide an actual Lisp interaction mode in Vim just like SLIME does in Emacs!

> I would recommend finding a co-founder who has similar ideals but can handle the parts you don’t like doing, and has business experience

Why does this need to be a co-founder? You can hire people as employees to do the daily "business" grunt work.
Thanks for building this. The speed boost is pretty insane, this would actually be great for an API layer for performing multiple operations on large query results in memory to reduce requests to the database. I imagine you could add a simple condition to use ducks if the array size exceeds a certain length.

Also, kudos for snagging the ducks pypi slug. I can’t believe that was available.
Is there a language ecosystem you prefer now?
It does sound like you were mis-informed, and sadly that seems to be common with banks all over.

The only account that is legally restricted that I can think of is the ISA which offers good tax incentives for saving but with a limit to how much can be contributed in a year, and I think you can only open with one provider in a given tax year.
Citibank still operate retail accounts in Japan? I thought they sold their retail business to SMBC and its now operated as Prestia almost a decade ago, alongside when HSBC pulled out of retail.
>There is support in other editors, but it is nowhere near as complete and convenient as it is in Emacs.

Why not, rather giving up the language, just disable the debugger? Found from SO[1]

(defun debug-ignore (c h) (declare (ignore h)) (print c) (abort))
(setf *debugger-hook* #'debug-ignore)

Of course you lose a significantly strong functionality but so you do moving elsewhere.

>are multiple implementations of this ANSI standard, each with their own set of features.

Can just target a single implementation. Though, similar to previous, this kinda kills the point of having a standard and multiple implementations.

Some code examples on the CLOS section and how it compares to Julia's approach will be nice and will make the points made easier to understand. The rest seem to be indeed cultural issues rather technical which for a language to be considered is also important.

I am not a fan of ligatures either. The "compose" key would be another option to insert various Unicode glyphs and it exists already.

Unfortunately, with monospace fonts many of these glyphs do not look nice to me due to the width constraint. Maybe a "multispace" font would be nicer while still preserving the grid alignment.

For what it is worth, I think a lot of AML is bullshit. But that doesn't change the fact it is the law, and many people support it because they assume it only affects drug trafficer and terrorists and billionares engaged in questionable activities. I heard this week that when AML checks on cash came in, the limit was 10kUSD for a cash transaction to be reportable. That was in the 70s, so the equivalent now would be 70kUSD today. That's per year. But the limit has not changed, so expect to raise a red flag if you sell a nicer end car or your tenant asks to pay in cash...
I'll take the advice of this article lacking substance, and complain.

Well, companies used to have employees write code, rather than stitch together random garbage written by random dipshits who could be tricked into using loose licenses. That's one cause for concern.

> Open source won because everyone worked together.

No, ``open source'' has ``won'' because it helped corporations defang Free Software and get gratis labor.

> Supply chain security will happen because everyone works together. If you try to do this alone, you will fail.

This isn't food, but perfectly uniform applied mathematics. There's no ``working together'' with corporations. Doing it alone is the only reasonable option, which means aggressively reducing the size of this foul shit is necessary.

> Thank goodness others had the foresight to create our current SBOM formats.

Yeah, MicroSoft totally *<3* ``open source'' guys.

Oh, right, all of this new security theatre is always about trust and reputation, and not trusting those disgusting lone programmers such as me or other silly things; it's always really about doing anything but truly auditing that yucky code.
The architecture of the k80 just doesn't allow memory sharing or pooling. The newer systems (Pascal and above I think?) can allow it on the right hardware but it's all datacenter and workstation cards for that.
Not directly no. The last major contribution from Lightbend employees was the big collections rewrite in the standard library (shared by Scala 2.13 and 3.x). The Scala 3 compiler and core tooling is developed by the LAMP, the Scala Center, VirtusLab and a few other people. Lightbend is maintaining Scala 2 compilers (2.11, 2.12, 2.13).
Not so common that it makes people less fit on average.
"Which is a problem considering how small the H2 molecule is: we can't reuse our existing LNG pipelines."

Assuming you mean natural gas pipelines, this isn't the case everywhere. Many flexible seals and ancillary equipment will need to be replaced but most low yield strength pipelines like the ones commonly used in Europe are easily adapted to H2 use. The American network use more high yield strength steel which is less suitable to hydrogen service.
Efficient photochemical lysis is *possible", but not the way to bet. If it happens, it will enter the mix. There is no reason to think it would involve less use of metals than photovoltaics.

Until hydrocarbon burning is a negligible part of energy production, a kWh of solar exactly displaces the equivalent amount of CO2 production. It is for now the most cost-effective way to keep CO2 from entering the atmosphere, much more so than any extractive process could match, and getting cheaper by the day.

When we are producing much less CO2, we will need to start collecting and sequestering carbon. Turning it into fuel again, by whatever means, just cycles it back to the atmosphere when the fuel is burned.

Probably the main method of capturing existing CO2 for sequestration will be geochemical.
> "The problem with decarbonization is that there isn’t any low hanging fruit."

Sadly, the problem with decarbonization is that it doesn't matter if there is or isn't "low hanging fruit", because even if it was all "low hanging fruit", too much of humanity will fight to the bloody end to avoid taking action on any of it for fear that they'll have to A) admit that we've really fucked up, and B) they'll have to alter their life in some small inconvenient way that they'll blow way outta proportion to make it seem like some massive world-ending inconvenience.
When the leadership switches on "let us know what you think" to "your managers will chat to you and collect feedback". It's not always the case but often this is leadership putting up a barrier so they can more easily dismiss the feedback they know they're going to get.
> is cloud cost actually really a problem in the first place

Yes. Prices are adapted to mature IT markets, in emerging markets it's often cheaper to operate one's own data centre and throw people at problems, eg. dev salaries are cheap enough to spend money on optimising software rather than spending money on infrastructure. With inflation and supply chain issues even more so.

> Prio #1 and #2 always seem to be shipping more features and having a more robust delivery pipeline

I think that's either very big companies which buy agility by throwing money at the cloud, or VC backed startups which try to prove a point at all costs.
Interesting. The results so far look pretty good, though only for fantasy and science fiction "fan art" style. That's why I was wondering whether the models are only trained from such inputs. If I understand you correctly, this is not the case and other styles of art can also be produced. Right?

Another question: Do the people who run the software claim copyright on the results even though these are (mostly) produced by the software? It sounds like that when you write "some us will [...] produce fantastic artpieces." I guess it's also legally the case but wonder whether that's also how people experimenting with it understand it.

As a data point, this change will mean a lot of work for us (we built cluster discovery on top of Akka Cluster at Neo4j). I'm not thrilled, but I respect their right to make these changes, and personally think that BSL with a timed revert to Apache 2.0 is a meaningful compromise.

Enterprises have to be sustainable. If you're furious with Lightbend for making this change to protect their bottom line, then you can always fork one of the last open source versions and maintain/fix that yourself. But most people won't do that, because if they did they'd likely have been active contributors to the project before now, reducing the ongoing maintenance burden on Lightbend and potentially avoiding them feeling the need to close-source in the first place.

> Why is technology moving us to a Kafka story instead of a Star Trek story?

That's a problem which has nothing to do with technology itself. Technology makes providing support cheaper, so if the only changing variable was adding more technology, we would be getting better support, not worst.

The problem is cultural individualism. People give too much power to centralized entities, and don't respect the paramount importance of free market competition in accountability. A typical argument is that technology causes this centralization, but it's simply not true. For each service, there almost always exists both centralized options, and decentralized open-source ones. It's on users to go above the individualistic perspective and chose the option that's right not only for their own individual needs, but also for their community.
I have a debit card and a credit card. The credit card is for American companies and for backups during holidays. I do everything using my single debit card, including getting money out of foreign ATMs. My credit card comes from the same company I hold a debit card with so if the bank screws me over, I'm screwed.

Yet, I do not fear getting screwed over. Every time I hear about the ways American banks will screw over their customers I'm thankful I do not live in the USA.

The American banking system is corrupted and horribly outdated to the point where consumers need to practice defensive financing (and things like tactical debt gathering to accumulate a credit score with a shady financial megacorporation), but that's not necessary in every country. With the right people-oriented regulations and incentives, banks can be better.
One would suppose mass energy density is even more important for rockets.

In practice, only some rockets use LH2. Many rockets use souped up kerosene (RP1) or, more recently, methane.

Compare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_rocket_propellant#Hydro... and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen-powered_aircraft

Also:

> With materials available in the 2020s, the mass of tanks strong enough to withstand this kind of high pressure will greatly outweigh the hydrogen fuel itself, largely negating the weight to energy advantage of hydrogen fuel over hydrocarbon fuels. Hydrogen has a severe volumetric disadvantage relative to hydrocarbon fuels, but future blended wing body aircraft designs might be able to accommodate this extra volume without greatly expanding the wetted area.
