> The source of power to the lab feels like a separate issue. It would be a very intense stance to take that having your city grid on non-renewable resources means any product made in that city is bad for the environment!

That's not what I'm proposing. Nature is very efficient so I imagine the energy that it takes to create a pound of flesh naturally (with grass) is alot less than that to required to do it in the lab.

From a little googling and back of the envelope calculations I just did it turns out methane is really that bad for global warming. At least in the short term.

To produce a cow worth of fake meat you would have to displace more than 16 tons of C02 before it becomes a less efficient way to produce meat from a global warming perspective. This assumes the cow has been raised using ancient methods. However this is in the short term. C02 lasts longer in the atmosphere.

Play store used to have fantastic organic discovery that gradually started deteriorating some 7 or 8 years ago until it reached the current state where everything is an ad of some sort.

AppStore never had discovery this good, but relied on being heavily curated for quality instead.

I do feel play store is in a much worse state still. The curating is barely there and the algorithms had user interests (our at least my interests) optimised out of them.

The fact that it used to work so well is insulting in a way. It's like when android took out the process manager.

Skimming that list, it seems to be bulked up by many who faced objections and protests but still spoke at the talks they were invited to. Them attending to talk whilst having protests is respecting free speech of everyone. Those whom object should not have their freedom of speech silenced in favour of one other's. People don't like protests when it's against them or something they don't support but protest is speech.

thought I would be a lifer at a previous company. Then upper management did a re-org and I lost a manager and team lead that I both loved working with and held in high regard. They were replaced by an okay manager, and a team lead that was technically strong but personally intolerable.

so am I a lifer? for now, yes. as long as upper management here doesn't feel the need to shoot themselves in the foot for no reason

> There is an old Eastern fable about a traveler who is taken unawares on the steppes by a ferocious wild animal. In order to escape the beast the traveler hides in an empty well, but at the bottom of the well he sees a dragon with its jaws open, ready to devour him. The poor fellow does not dare to climb out because he is afraid of being eaten by the rapacious beast, neither does he dare drop to the bottom of the well for fear of being eaten by the dragon. So he seizes hold of a branch of a bush that is growing in the crevices of the well and clings on to it. His arms grow weak and he knows that he will soon have to resign himself to the death that awaits him on either side. Yet he still clings on, and while he is holding on to the branch he looks around and sees that two mice, one black and one white, are steadily working their way round the bush he is hanging from, gnawing away at it. Sooner or later they will eat through it and the branch will snap, and he will fall into the jaws of the dragon. The traveler sees this and knows that he will inevitably perish. But while he is still hanging there he sees some drops of honey on the leaves of the bush, stretches out his tongue and licks them. In the same way I am clinging to the tree of life, knowing full well that the dragon of death inevitably awaits me, ready to tear me to pieces, and I cannot understand how I have fallen into this torment. And I try licking the honey that once consoled me, but it no longer gives me pleasure. The white mouse and the black mouse – day and night – are gnawing at the branch from which I am hanging. I can see the dragon clearly and the honey no longer tastes sweet. I can see only one thing; the inescapable dragon and the mice, and I cannot tear my eyes away from them. And this is no fable but the truth, the truth that is irrefutable and intelligible to everyone.

> The delusion of the joys of life that had formerly stifled my fear of the dragon no longer deceived me. No matter how many times I am told: you cannot understand the meaning of life, do not thinking about it but live, I cannot do so because I have already done it for too long. Now I cannot help seeing day and night chasing me and leading me to my death. This is all I can see because it is the only truth. All the rest is a lie.

> Those two drops of honey, which more than all else had diverted my eyes from the cruel truth, my love for my family and for my writing, which I called art – I no longer found sweet.

> What is the minimal level of effort required for it to count as 'training an AI chatbot' for you?

Isn't GPT-3 already capable of acting like a chatbot out of the box? The article implies that it was trained to be like a younger Michelle from the journal entries, but all the responses presented seem to be utterly generic. Talk about dreams and hardships but not anything concrete, no mention of friends and family, locations or activities. I don't know enough about GPT-3 to say if the training affected word choice, but it doesn't seem to have any discernible depth at all.

In theory, it’s irrational to give into threats in iterated games, or in one-shot games where your opponent can look at your code. (“We don’t negotiate with terrorists.”) So threatening sanctions shouldn’t work.

But in practice, when everyone knows you have a bazooka, you might not ever have to fire it.

Linux Kernel: UAF in Bluetooth L2CAP Handshake · Advisory
In a YouTube video, the Starbase Tour with Elon Musk, he reveals a core Engineering principle: Compare our Rocket Manufacturing Process Costs with a Genie that can Magically turn Sheet Steel into Rockets for $0. This silly excercise helps you spot wasteful processes that do not meaningfully contribute to a cost-effective end product.

In Twitter's case, Musk mentioned that "A Twitter Home Tab load is about 100 poorly-batched RPC calls " and so I think there is a lot of room to get Twitter data-logistics a LOT closer to a Genie that magically delivers tweets for free.

Next - Maybe Musk can take a look at the under-performing Online of Nintendo's Animal Crossing New Horizons, and Splatoon 3

I wouldn't mind, but I don't think it's realistic/possible.

My income pretty much halfed compared to year ago (in company I work for from home as contractor for 6+ years and work on site for 2 years before that) which is already half of what I had years ago, so I had to contact also other company trying to substitute my income and if it doesn't work out can look for completely new company to cooperate with, because companies are aholes always bringing more and more new requirements to make your work more and more difficult (while delivering same result as in the beginning) and while maximizing their profits and minimizing what they pay you.
Maybe you could use a handheld scanner type device to load the next image and send power to each card, or an electronic Rolodex where you stack the cards and it flips through a set amount reconfiguring them. Both of those ideas would require some hardware development though.

I've been using this for a few months and I love it. I will take this opportunity to gripe though and say that it doesn't handle DOM changes, e.g. if you're going through a form and you click an expander, the contents of that expander won't be translated if it was dynamically inserted into the DOM. This is more or less any AJAX request, or React/Vue component with its own data calls, etc. As a result, I often find myself falling back to Chrome if I need translations (recently moved abroad).

Also, it would be great if the models were cached. If I don't click "translate this tab automatically as I browse" I'll download the whole model on every page load. Not great if you're tethered to your phone :(

It's ideal for running untrusted code, as it will only be able to access the external functions it's given by the host. This in contrast with other VMs, where you're effectively giving full system access to the VM.

Besides that, WASM allows for an open universal standard for VMs. This means that we can easily develop with many different languages for WASM.

Smart plants that turn red when their roots reach explosives have been around for close to twenty years.

Why have they not succeeded? Near as I can tell the Danish company that launched them experienced huge pushback because they were GMO's and this was the height of anti-GMO hysteria in Europe. The charities that would fund distribution wanted nothing to do with GMO plants - even if they saved lives.

I found one study that said the rats were more cost effective. The seeds had to be flown over the field and a great number of them refused to germinate.

Years later grass started being seeded with a moist paper mulch that contained a small amount of fertilizer. Would it work with these seeds? Far as I can tell the Danish company abandoned development of the product.

Two more reading lists by Borges: "The Library of Babel" and "A Personal Library" [0].

Expansion on "The Library of Babel" [1]

"A Personal Library" is one of my favorite books list. Here's Borges own introduction:

> Over time, one's memory forms a disparate library, made of books or pages whose reading was a pleasure and which one would like to share. The texts of that personal library are not necessarily famous. The reason is clear. The professors, who are the ones who dispense fame, are interested less in beauty than in literature's dates and changes, and in the prolix analysis of books that have been written for that analysis, not for the joy of the reader.

> This series is intended to bring such pleasure. I will not select titles according to my literary habits, or a certain tradition, or a certain school or nation or era. I once said, "Others brag of the books they've managed to write; I brag of the books I've managed to read." I don't know if I am a good writer, but I think I am an excellent reader, or in any case, a sensitive and grateful one. I would like this library to be as diverse as the unsatisfied curiosity that has led me, and continues to lead me, in my exploration of so many languages and literatures. I know that the novel is no less artificial than the allegory or the opera, but I will include novels because they too have entered into my life. This series of heterogenous books is, I repeat, a library of preferences.

> Maria Kodama and I have wandered the globe of land and sea. We have visited Texas and Japan, Geneva, Thebes, and now, to gather the texts that are essential to us, we have traveled through the corridors and palaces of memory, as St. Augustine wrote.

> A book is a thing among things, a volume lost among the volumes that populate the indifferent universe, until it meets its reader, the person destined for its symbols. What then occurs is that singular emotion called beauty, that lovely mystery which neither psychology nor criticism can describe. "The rose has no why," said Angelus Silesius; centuries later, Whistler declared, "Art happens."

> I hope that you will be the reader these books await.

There are namespaces, there just aren't standards like Python.

And there aren't many good Ruby developers. There are too many noobs who write Ruby code that make my eyes bleed. I know, because I have to see this at work and they're supposedly "rockstar" developers. Ha! I swear most so-called "engineers": 0. don't grok software engineering, 1. weren't formally-trained in software engineering AND computer science, and 2. happily push shitty code that there will be no incentive to refactor through automated means.

If you want to enforce coding standards in Ruby, you better learn LISP / S-expressions, because that's what Rubocop uses.

> Things can change very suddenly - new person joins who makes everyone miserable, company goes in a new direction,

Being in company where is a lot of long term employees and me being halfway there. One property it has is that if miserable person joins, there are often ways to change the team or otherwise work around that person. You can say "no" to positions and tasks too fairly often.

It is not always possible for everybody, of course. But the stable people are the ones whose "I dont want to work under that manager anymore" was respected and not punished. Basically, you have a sense of controlling what happens to you at least partially.

The changing direction is then also less of problem in general.

Fair enough. I don’t review purchases pretty much ever but my thinking is generally pretty binary.

For example, I bought a squeegee the other day and it works just fine so if somebody offered me $20 to write a 5 star review I’d probably do it (It would read “Good squeegee, works as advertised”).

Now if the people that sold me an incomplete lockpicking kit asked for a 5 star review I’d tell them to fuck off.

Living alone today is easy. It’s also comfortable, because you save yourself all the drama and overhead of having to deal with another irrational human being.
