Is there evidence that this oft-cited claim about using turn-by-turn directions is inevitable (or even true at all, for that matter). I have a decent sense of direction, but I still use turn-by-turn directions routinely both for unfamiliar areas, and for familiar areas because of traffic information. A sense of direction doesn’t really help with tricky exits, one way streets, etc. or with real-time traffic info.

It looks exactly like anti-intellectualism to me.

Actually that's probably under-selling the problem. It's not just that Jon doesn't value the opinions of academics, he doesn't really value the opinions of anyone except Jonathan Blow.

Which is probably a healthy way to attack your first video game project, it's not as though Braid would be more likely to be a success if Blow stopped believing in it himself. But I would be surprised if that's true of a programming language.

> most academic CS works haven't really helped developers in building better programs and tools

It's doubtless possible to measure "most works" and "really helped" in ways which allow you to either draw this conclusion, or not, as you prefer but I don't think that's a useful way to think about it at all.

The other factor here is that there just isn't that much arable land in many places, so places that need to import food could instead grow their own using the facilities you mention here. For instance, here in Japan there really isn't much land for growing crops, for obvious reasons (plus there's a lot of typhoons which can be problematic for outdoor farming). But some big nuclear-powered hydroponic farms could very well be economically viable if the government provides some incentives because it wants to be more self-sufficient with food.

It's so manifestly false, the only charitable assumption is that they're making an offbeat point. Perhaps it could be defended by simply defining 'everything' as 'all propositional knowledge'. Or maybe you could say true 'communication' is only possible between people who already share the concepts they're communicating, in which case words are only a Kripke-esque pointers, excluding the obvious cases of purported difficulties communicating with words. A bit of a stretch perhaps.

At a minimum, it's a tad gnomic without some expansion.
I am not very knowledgeable about nuclear reactors but wouldn't it be concerning to have tiny nuclear reactors everywhere in the city? Doesn't this increase the potential dangers?
>It'll still be cheaper,

No, it won't. One problem with arable land (i.e., land that's really good for growing crops) is that it's also usually land where people really want to live. Non-arable land is places like deserts and tundra, and almost no one wants to live there, for obvious reasons. So farmers are in competition with developers (and eventually property buyers) for using the best land.

Ask HN: Am I missing something (modern webdev)?
I have always tried to build web applications that load quickly, don't require JavaScript (but can be improved by it) and work on any device that supports rendering HTML and CSS.

Everywhere I turn there's a new framework or library that depends on complicated build tools, generating mountains of JavaScript and sometimes even generating HTML and CSS.

What's wrong with building simple web applications that get things done and don't require build tools, secondary (or tertiary) languages or meta-languages (like SCSS, ERB, JSX, Jade, etc)?
Koch network propaganda. They also believe we should move underground and evolve into subterranean cave dwelling Morlocks to escape the heat—instead of using less oil. And yes, they actually proposed that idea in lieu of transitioning to renewables. It was one of the highlights of their science museum exhibitions about climate change. Nothing is too crazy for these people. My favorite, however, is when they sold specialized Koch lesson plans to schools. The Koch curriculum was designed to teach students to sacrifice their health and well-being on behalf of the free market, since as major oil producers, environmental regulation hurt their bottom line. From what I understand, some US states are still using those lesson plans or similar ones like them.

I wonder if what is really happening, whether by design or a misaligned universe, is that firms that build these devices are really building for the military, and the thoughtless trend of militarizing police forces is intensifying. Why do I say this? Because the idea to use non-lethal force is frankly obvious and various think tanks were looking at this stuff for years. Ditto concerns over lethal robots.

https://www.uclalawreview.org/policing-police-robots/

abstract:

Just as they will change healthcare, manufacturing, and the military, robots have the potential to produce big changes in policing. We can expect that at least some robots used by the police in the future will be artificially intelligent machines capable of using legitimate coercive force against human beings. Police robots may decrease dangers to police officers by removing them from potentially volatile situations. Those suspected of crimes may also risk less injury if robots can assist the police in conducting safer detentions, arrests, and searches. At the same time, however, the use of robots introduces new questions about how the law and democratic norms should guide policing decisions—questions which have yet to be addressed in any systematic way. How we design, regulate, or even prohibit some uses of police robots requires a regulatory agenda now to address foreseeable problems of the future.

GEB explores a similar idea in investigating where a program is written

It's implied that the distinctions are somewhat arbitrary. For example, a song is "written" on a record with a bunch of grooves, and the record-player is the machine that plays it. But if the record-player spun backwards instead of forwards, you'd hear something completely different. So in some sense, the record-player also holds part of the program.

And all this runs parallel to the idea that a program is also data, IMO. I think a 'non-arbitrary' definition of a machine would be very general.
We've been doing it in other countries for quite some time. But the domestic, civil setting of the 2016 bombing was somewhat unique: the police do not have the procedures, rules of engagement, etc. that the military is supposed to have.

Is the 2016 bombing unique in a moral sense? I don't think so. But I do think it sets a concerning precedent in domestic law enforcement: if you're sufficiently difficult for the police to retrieve, they can simply blow you up instead of waiting to capture you.
The article does not mention grid applications. In fact, it explicitly Alaska and Canada, and off-grid applications, like mines. So, don't think it's trying to promote the idea of cheap wholesale electricity in normal places, but, instead, reliable on-premise electricity in places where it's not so very easy to get.

Unconventional: switch hands for a bit. Most people can write legibly with their non-dominant hand with a bit of practice. After a few days of tears of frustration doing this, take what you've learned about how the pen flows over the page and apply it to your dominant hand. Everything about how a letter is formed is excruciatingly obvious when you are fighting your hand to move in the way you want it, rather than automatically as has been ingrained in your dominant hand.

That is mind boggling. How on earth can MS have an efficient knowledge management with this setup?

The most sensible way forward seems to me would be just set up a single company SharePoint with a doc store with a predefined data layout. No associated team space around that. Move communication 100% to slack. Link / pin the relevant SP folders to the slack channels.

Just for the dev team this would work as we never moved chat from slack to teams. But we need to

1. interact with the less technical parts of our org (product management, quality & regulatory, BI, V&V, Legal etc)

2. Interact with colleagues from other subsidiaries.

They all use teams, so conversations & especially meetings will happen on teams, people will still store docs and notes there just out of convenience or lazyness.

I do not know how to solve that conundrum.
Weird, considering this administration allocated $37 billion in funds to hire another 100,000 police officers.

> I’m not sure why anyone would pick a language that won’t ever have a real ecosystem of libraries

I think Jon is pretty hard in the camp of handmade game programming. My intuition about the decisions he's making about the language is that the way he's thinking about the "library ecosystem problem" is A) use a code generator to create library bindings from C++ (Raphael Luba, another dev contracted to work on Jai has done some extensive work there), or B) write it yourself.

Demoing even the v1 of stable diffusion to the non-technical general users blows them away completely.

Now that v2 is here, it’s clear we’re not able to keep pace in developing products to take advantage of it.

Huge market opportunity for folks wanting to ride the wave here.

This is exciting for me personally, since I can keep plugging in newer and better versions of these models into my app and it becomes better.

Even some of the tech folks I demo my app to, are simply amazed how I can manage to do this solo.

If the price is right and medium size communities could get their acts together, something like this could potentially disrupt the entire grid model. In California, regardless of what wholesale electricity costs, the retail cost is something like $200/MWh more than could be considered reasonable. Put another way, the utility (PG&E) is charging an immense premium. Normally, displacing PG&E would be impractical:

a. The actual transmission system is a phenomenally large capital investment developed over many decades. You can’t just VC up a new electric grid in a developed area. And the incumbent mostly owns the existing infrastructure.

b. Regulation, good and bad.

It’s possible to sell power to the utility for a reasonable price per MWh. But one can’t easily sell to the utility’s customers.

But this reactor is small! 5 MW could serve maybe 1000 expensive homes in an expensive area without an enormous transmission system. Anyone trying to disrupt the incumbent utility with something like this has $200/MWh of inefficiency to exploit. $24k per day of operation will offset a decent amount of capital cost and regulatory effort to get the electricity to customers.

Put another way, a wealthy community could buy a few of these, figure out local distribution, and ditch the incumbent utility. This could be fantastic.

He's a CEO who is has been incredibly successful at selling a vision and getting people to do what he wants. He is not an engineer. He should stop role playing as one.
