Few notes: for some reasons we actually really need a paradigm shift, something who happen to be strongly opposed by most regardless of reasons, designs and implications.

Unfortunately the WEF public design, who is very poor in details, seems actually really similar to hitler mein kampf and it's well-known not a theory that modern economic theory root themselves in nazism and communism economic models (yes, both, at once). If you hear the not so long speech of the WEF president https://youtu.be/DQjXODh0TOg at last G20 you can CLEARLY see the same ideas of nazism and historical bankster-socialism like the VERY-hard-to-find Clinton Roosevelt "The Science of Government Founded on Natural Law" from the far 1841.

His points are essentially:

- Industrie 4.0 who is NOT additive manufacturing vs modern CNCs, witch means a potential revolution of neatly nullify waste, but instead the IoT revolution who happen to be "you do not own any tools you bought, the OEM own them from remote";

- Sharing Economy who happen to be NOT a social economy where PUBLIC resources are fairly shared but a private corporatocratic model where very few own anything and "they allow" most access those services, who are scarce, in a shared way;

- Corporatocracy or companies who replace States, so autocracy who replace Democracies since a company is not a Democracy.

That's the clearly and undeniably nazi part of the scenario. But there is also a technical one.

Electrification of anything means a (potential) big simplification of so many industrial manufacturing. For instance EVs demand far less component, far less special alloys, far less precision than ICEs, or they are DAMN CHEAP in industrial terms. Having all electric stuff at home means having a single "power" network and a "signal" network witch is already converged to IP. The same network can power any appliance. Similarly at State level there are just electrical, roads, water and signal networks instead of various kind of pipelines for gas, gasoline, diesel, crude oil, ... witch means a far simple infra to maintain and extend. Similarly a CERTAIN KIND of IoT, the one who happen to be nearly nonexistent so far on sales potentially can trigger big leap ahead in our lives.

Some revolutions are formally already there but they fail to scale because of FUD and reactionary-ness of most: for instance WFH might work beautifully well if well done but too many on both sides hesitate and the results are far beyond a positive paradigm shift. Computerization is another: potentially we can hyper-simplify bureaucracy but in 99% of the cases bad design, business interest and ignorance create monsters who complicate instead of simplify. Change that demand a kind of "social reset".

The problem lie at management level: such "reset" can be designed by some teachers, philosophers, high culture people, from PUBLIC academic and research bodies with the SOLE target of improving our society or can be designed by a small cohort of nazi thieves for their own personal interests against most AND marginally to ensure social evolution.
I’ll try one last time:

> definition of addition

What do you think any definition is other than the creation of a socially shared construct?

> I can construct any axiom I want, and derive true statements from it.

Let’s test this. Axiomatically I am always right! As such, I derive that it is illogical, dare I say irrational, of you to disagree with me. A truer statement has never even been written! Facts!

Hmm… turns out you disagree that it’s a true statement. Why? I had an axiom! You don’t agree with my axiom? If that’s allowed, I guess I’ll have to convince you (and society) of my axiom!
I’ll be serving it up for sure. I probably will not even think of the goose while eating it, or if I do, it’ll be to toast the animal. Lol

browsers do provide that functionality, just with JS.

CSS is not designed, to be something you're supposed to write Doom in even though you can. It hasn't been really updated with the purpose of 'obviate javascript' because the browsers don't really want to do that.
> The media love twitter though. They hate it so much they can't stop talking about it

It's newsworthy. It's a leading social network which a billionaire was forced to purchase after trying to weasel himself out of the deal which he got into for dubious reasons, and now said billionaire is doing a corporate anihialation speedrun that threatens to evaporate 45 billion dollars.

Not to mention the impact on other notorious companies such as Tesla and SpaceX.

You require a massively disingenuous take on current events to come up to the conclusion that news coverage of Elon Musk's takeover of Twitter can only be explained in terms of irrational hate.

Hah, I love that - "benchmark by fan speed".

Good to know - I've tried large and it works but in my case I'm using whisper-asr-webservice[0] which loads the configured model for each of the workers on startup. I have some prior experience with Gunicorn and other WSGI implementations so there's some playing around and benchmarking to be done on the configured number of workers as the GPU utilization of Whisper is a little spiky and whisper-asr-webservice does file format conversion on CPU via ffmpeg. Default was two workers, is now one but I've found as many as four with base can really improve overall utilization, response time, and scale (which certainly won't be possible with large).

OPs node+express implementation shells out to Whisper which gives more control (like runtime specification of model) but almost certainly has to end up slower and less efficient in the long run as the model is obviously loaded from scratch on each invocation. I'm front-ending whisper-asr-webservice with traefik so I could certainly do something like having two separate instances (one for base, another for large) at different URL paths but like I said I need to do some playing around with it. The other issue is if this is being made available to the public I doubt I'd be comfortable without front-ending the entire thing with Cloudflare (or similar) and Cloudflare (and others) have things like 100s timeouts for final HTTP response (Websockets could get around this).

Thanks for providing the Slim Shady examples, as a life-long hip hop enthusiast I'm not offended by the content in the slightest.

Except NS2 had also exploded.

Even if it didn't, can you explain the purpose of this all? What is there to be gained? NS1 had bigger capacity, which meant more money.
> even though I never wanted to pay her

You wanted a prostitute but didn't intend to pay?

If you're just looking for a hookup, the first hint of a money demand should have been met with "nope, not interested in pay-for-play". And drop them.

In il nome della rosa William of Baskerville tells us that concepts are signs and words are "signs of signs".

In math logic we can define systems of symbols and logical connectives and deductive rules. We can argue for the correctness of a logical system but we can not do it in the same system; we have to go "meta". Similarly a formal system could be a model of something "real", but the correspondence would be beyond mere logic.
Good intentions, good grief!

I have seen several people saying that the experience in the "official" phone client (both the iOS one and the Android one) is not very good. I have also seen someone recommending opening the web site directly in the phone browser and installing it as a PWA, though I haven't tried that yet.
> In most companies, you can get rid of 50% of the company and things will still keep running and even improve.

Maybe. But you have to take a few months to figure out which 50% if you have half a braincell. Especially if it is a complicated company in field outside your expertise, which for Elon this is (although he might have seen this different when taking over).

By this point you could have picked up a random person on the street and they easily would have done a better job than mister impulsive over there.

I mean the guy accidentally bought a company — a company to whose product he is addicted to. My speculation how that happened: his right leaning followers got constantly banned, so he wanted to proof to then, that the liberal snowflakes at Twitter HQ will not take his generous offer because they are against free speech and have political motives. So his prediction was that they would say no, because in his mind that is who they are and he could then take this No as ammunition to his followers. But the twitter people were not lefty liberals but mostly business people and so they said yes and from that point onwards everything mister impulsive did was pure and utter panic.

What we have observed here is not how someone in control looks like, even if we generously assume he is pretending not to be in control for stupid 12-dimensional chess reasons us mere mortals are just too simple to understand. He is giving orders people will not follow, that makes him look weak. He makes impulsive decisions he has to wheel back hours later. He wants screenshots of source code to make hiring ad firing decisions.

You could literally make a wet towel the CEO of Twitter and it would be running better than under him.

And even if we generously assumed that this is part of an painful restructuring the company might have needed, nobody remotly in control would plan to do it that way in a company that relies on money it gets from advertising and has workers who are heavily sought after and can literally pick a new job hours later if they choose to do so.

Well...
If you're gonna condescend like in that last line, your spelling ought to be impeccable.

Security patches... so 10 full-time engineers ought to take care of that?

"Thousands of dependencies" was a mistake. The ideal is minimal complexity.

Any browser or OS decides to commit a breaking change (rare), you bring in contractors.

Scaling up and down (and out and in) is handled for you automatically by cloud services now without anyone lifting a finger. "Fells" weird to be explaining that on HN.

Bottom line, you don't need thousands of engineers to keep Twitter running for "the next few days to week or two (at most)."

When has the world NOT been changing? The leadership of Twitter changed also.
Technical and support teams are needed to keep a site like this running globally. Good examples of the work from an SRE: https://twitter.com/MosquitoCapital/status/15935411779656785...

Other things which aren't necessarily needed to technically keep the code running, but without which you won't have an operating service:

* Sales and account management teams to keep and grow advertiser revenue, and all the support services around them (marketing, integration, etc)

* Moderation teams to keep illegal or dangerous content off the platform, and implement your moderation policy which you need for many reasons including appeal to advertisers

* Abuse teams to respond to the latest DoS / hacking / impersonation / harrassment / etc.

* Legal and ops teams to understand and implement compliance with laws, regulatory filings, etc across 150+ countries, and in some countries like the US, individual state variations.

You tell me how many people you can do this with at the scale of Twitter. I think > 1000 people are a skeleton staff just to keep the lights on.
Is this because AI has destroyed all the software jobs? Is it really more lucrative to become a factory farmed chicken these days? I'm worried.
Yes, it can still have significant benefits. Async IO is an attempt to get around the performance issues and, given lots of kernel support that largely does not exist today, it can bridge the gap to a degree, but it's never going to match just avoiding the entire issue.

You can use things like XDP to get a lot of performance back but 0 context switches/ 0 copies
is always going to be faster.

Everyone who says you're the hired help and treated about as well as a secretary that the organization dislikes is dead on. At best, you're viewed as an overpaid cost center.

I don't think you understand my opinion very well.

At no point did I say I do not wish to understand other people's opinions. But I don't speak in their culture, so I need it explained to me. That's literally what liberal humanities are all about, from the Renaissance on: trying to understand the world around you.

Are you somehow assuming, for example, that to truly understand Russia I should only read Russian newspapers and talk to Russians and speak Russian? I shouldn't have say how absurd that is, but here we are.

So even after a woman asked you to pay her (for what?), you decided would still like to date this woman? And you expected to convince her to stop being a prostitute during the date?
Not sure what you want to get from this. Some people were financially able to keep going - others weren't. Some people wonder what if they didn't have kids and pursued their career - others wondering what it'd be like to have a family.

Life in most cases is a series of tradeoffs.

From past work experience & funding source priorities, computational genomics usually considered a supporting role as information analyst when needs to be a research software engineer. (unless building software for ct, mri, x-ray scanning process).

aka need to be able to develop the dna / dna number system equivalent of things (aka something other than binary / punch card block based number system) such as:

treesitter

nyquest : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nyquist_(programming_language)

slippery chicken : https://ccrma.stanford.edu/workshops/algorithmic-composition-with-slippery-chicken

but wind up doing the equivalent of automated statistical analysis, because focus is NOT to develop software package/system.

With gay spaces one big issue is often critical mass.

I would suspect that for MTF individuals that Grindr would be one of the few places with a critical mass of both people they are looking for and people looking for them, even if that's not really the intended or main target audience. From what I understand, trans individuals have a hard time on other dating apps because their profiles get reported a lot for being "misleading" (which is a whole debate that I'm not getting into)
Wealth, according to libertarians and Taleb. Taleb seems to pick wealth because it's measurable, and then concludes IQ is worthless because it doesn't correlate with wealth. It's like the drunk looking for his keys near the lamp, not because he dropped them there, but because that's where the light is. Except Taleb has confidently declared that his keys must surely be near the light, making it seem like wealth is in fact the only thing he values.

Whatever "merit" is, it's certainly easier to define (differently for each of us, I'm sure) than "intelligence" is.
A lot of artists post exclusively on Twitter and have stated their art will not be reposted elsewhere. It makes me worried for what's going to happen to all that content if there's a mass exodus of users.

Not silence. Sequoia posted a letter declaring that their FTX investment is $0 and that this is not a notable fraction of their portfolio. FTX may have been a theoretically sound investment for Sequoia because many venture investments are marked to $0, and FTX got to huge-or-zero much faster than any other investment. A company that slowly goes to $0 is equally bad but worse for time-value.

What hurts my brain is that theoretically this investment strategy is sound, but the implementation of it looks like: FTX. It's horrific. It's like total war logic. Logically it works, probabilistically it's reasonable, living it is grotesque and insane.
