It's a coarse, hand-wavy model that had no neurological underpinning at the time. It does have merit: it can explain some phenomena and brought it to the attention of a wider audience that the human mind isn't really logical or rational, and that you should think twice before making a decision. But it's never been "accurate".

> I'm sure the field of psychology has made progress

I doubt it. The "myriad of sources" you mention probably include a large number of papers that cannot be replicated, or have been refuted in other papers, or whose conclusions were much broader than the experiments warranted. That's a very common pattern in psychology. It doesn't seem to be able to progress beyond that.

From my own area of expertise: it's 90 years ago that Stroop found that naming a color is more difficult if the word is the name of one color, but the word is written in another color. This study hasn't only been confirmed thousands of times, it's easy to note when you do it yourself. Despite an immense amount of studies into this particular phenomenon, and all potential brain processes around it, and despite the fact that it's a very reliable and large effect (500ms), there is no deeply grounded explanation beyond "there's interference." The complexity of the mind is simply too large to understand even the process of reading a word and pronouncing it in detail.

Ok so let’s remove the responsibility exemption from pharma contracts, right? Oh you have an excuse not to do it? It’s the only drug in history that has this exemption.

I trust new things with care, people have a habit of lowballing the side-effects. Many people don’t trust GMO for that reason. I don’t trust a vax that is less than 2 years old, made while governments imposed a defense-confidential seal on the entire process. Governments have admitted to lie to control populations during the last 2 years.

You want trust? Levy the 70-year secret on the way my govt managed Covid, I want to know whether the press was mandated to publish propaganda, and I want to know whether doctors are under duress. The weekly minister meetings have been public since 1945 in France, except for Covid: Levy that. If you have nothing to lie, you have nothing to hide.

This operation displays absolutely no sign of trust on any aspect. I DON’T say that the vaccine isn’t safe. I just say that you aren’t offering trustworthiness guarantees around it. It’s a leap of faith, and I won’t take this leap of faith for the camp that was repeatedly mistaken during the last 2 years.

You’re obviously wrong, it’s very hard to add stuff. Both technically and from an ISO perspective.
This made me think of a story I came across the other day of some domestic terrorists that had planned to take out the power grid. They had obviously conceived that they might be captured, so they thought up a similar device. Their idea was to put fentanyl into a capsule and then wear this as a necklace.

When the first conspirator was randomly stopped by the police and he tried to use it to spare his partners. They got him to the hospital. He's in prison currently.

The CIA's idea doesn't seem any more grounded in reality than theirs.
This is a good example of the low hanging fruit that GPT models will feast on. A really nice usability improvement with a very simple implementation. I expect to see a tonne of these products/tools spring up over the next year.
It stems from the human desire for an ultimately ordered world that also allows us some agency (because evolution wires us to maximize our security). Such a thing is impossible without a godlike force that imposes order (or at least will eventually impose order) and also provides a path through human agency to reach a state of "everything's going to be okay forever".

The desire can become so great (especially during times of insecurity or trauma) that people will start imagining that such a being/beings/force exists, and has offered them agency and a path.

Such beliefs are actually evolutionarily useful because they can counter the despair that can creep in during stressful times, giving believers a survival edge. They can also foster social cohesion, another survival edge.
The idea of a suicide pill may also have been promoted from an actual event involving a russian astronaut. Re: Alexey Leonov, https://www.realclearscience.com/blog/2013/10/astronauts-and...
The only reason the majority of Microsoft's product still exist is the company behind them. E.g. Azure, Microsoft Teams are objectively extremely poor products with tons of drawbacks compared to any of their competitors, and would never survive on their own - their only "advantage" is that they come from a known brand enterprises already have relationships with, so it's "easy". So legitimate competitors lose market share to a poor cross-subsidised product propped up by Microsoft's cash. This is not good for the competition nor the consumers (be they business or consumer).
You got me, I thought for a moment that I accidentally channeled Weird Al instead of Pearl Jam's Do the Evolution.

No, but they'd sure as heck have some overlap - and a working knowledge of python happens to be that overlap.
They will 100% eventually, if not soon after, have a special status, that isn't visible to the end user, and isn't appealable, because moderation at scale requires it.

It'll be called something different, or framed in some different way of course.
You see this at hyper growth startups, where founding team / seed stage hires work nights and weekends, while complaining loudly about the people hired at series A/B who are logging off at 5pm (and who stand to make 1/10 or 1/100 the equity exit but might be paid 10-30% more on a cash basis).

Early stage equity is one hell of a drug.

As a founder/manager, it’s irrational to expect anything other than fundamentally different levels of output from each “ring” of growth on the tree, because the inputs are very different. Anybody would work much harder for inter generational wealth than they would for a cool $500k. It’s shocking how common it is for early people to project their personal expectations on others and experience dissonance as a result.
As long as I get to make 90% of streets in my city also dead ends to prevent through traffic, we're on the same page. I too want my neighborhood streets safe enough for kids to play in; the only reason they're not is through traffic, mostly from the suburbs.

I find this an interesting question - if you have a private repo with code in it and you get banned in this way can you export that repo? There could be situations arising where you don't have your code anymore because of the banning and that would probably be actionable.
Plus all the multi-millionaires from nearby Northern Italy (one of the most industrialised regions in Europe until quite recently, and still one of the wealthiest) hiding their wealth in there. Them and Mina, the famous singer [1].

> I wouldn't describe those crimes as violent either, unless by chance a separate act of violence was perpetrated in their commission.

Or if they plan to use violence if needed. Watch the videos of them beating guards and other shoppers. It doesn't matter that they don't use violence every time because they're ready whenever they want.

If that white-collar criminal had a gun, "just in case", then we would call them a violent criminal.

> dog whistle words like "thugs" either.

Does that "I'm taking offense over here" strategy do anything for you? It just tells me you try to see everything through a race-based lens.
I think it depends on the country and the viability of any sort of attack on the person as an enterprise likely to produce profit.

In countries known for their lawlessness, perhaps Brazil for example, or Papua New Guinea, HNW people do indeed have security details and live in pretty fortified areas (whole districts, typically, not just houses). A visiting CEO or whoever, depending on how well-known they are and how publicly knowable their visit is likely to be, might well organise such protection when they visit. Countries like this, all countries actually, have companies specialising in exactly that.

But I think in countries where there is a credible claim to rule of law, attacks on the actual person are pretty rare. Kidnapping as a general crime is all but extinct in most of the developed world, and you'd have to kidnap someone to make any actual money - it's not like they have a billion dollars in cash on their person. You'd have to kidnap for ransom (or I suppose crypto keys these days?) which is just extraordinarily risky and unlikely to succeed in the modern, developed world.

As to the "uber from the airport" question, anyone above a certain net worth has at least one assistant who organises their calendar and travel (and their whole lives, actually) and they will have arranged transport to/from airports in advance.
One afternoon in early fall of 2005 or 2006, I had a couple of hours to kill -- it might have been been before an evening flight out of SeaTac. I drifted down towards the water nearby, to come across Saltwater State Park. After checking out the shoreline, on the way back to my car I passed by an old fellow parked in an older red pickup facing the water. He had his window rolled down, and instead of just saying "howdy", I asked him whether he had a good local place he could recommend for seafood.

That turned into a half or maybe hour long conversation. Turns out he was an engineer with Boeing and was involved with stuff and knew the big shots circa WWII and/or a bit thereafter. This was early 2000's and he looked like he could be well into his 80's or even a well preserved 90-ish, so I had no trouble believing him. Plus, the details he knew, and it was a pleasant and interesting conversation, anyway.

I wish I could remember his name.

It was a fascinating conversation, and I knew just enough to be able to hold up my end in basically understanding and appreciating what he was saying. I think -- hope -- he enjoyed that.

(And I was humble and curious enough to ask lots of questions. And I guess I knew enough to make some counterpoints and do my part in furthering the conversation.)

I left with the impression that he was a dyed in the wool engineer and personality. Although, at this remove, I'm a bit vague on how much of the conversation was engineering and how much business, about which he also certainly had some opinions.

Anyway, I only provide the details because it was the better part of twenty years ago and I'm sure I'm not revealing his hang out spot too soon.

He did have two places to recommend, the much more convenient of which was Lorraine's. They were packed, but they fit me in for dinner at the bar and the wild salmon was excellent.

P.S. I'm almost certain it was called Lorraine's, but I'm not finding it now. A short distance away, right on the water -- in fact, sticking out into the water. Gorgeous sunset views -- both the 2005 and 2006 trips had great weather.

Sam. Sam was his first name. Maybe another hour or two will give me his last name, from memory.

Ask the folks over at SoloKeys, who are both open source and FIDO certified.

It also supports it. Whether it’s enforced is a site owner’s decision, as are the trusted roots they use.

If a site owner wants to limit to only a single type of authenticator, they can already do that by only trusting its key, so I don’t see how that’s relevant to the topic of implementing the standard.
It is clear what he meant by the distiction:

implemented a minimalistic tensor library in C

ported the high-level architecture of the model in C++

The C part - which accounts for most of the lines of code - may be of interest to someone who wants to use it as the foundation for implementing a different model - not necessarily in C++
Making some assumptions about what you mean by "business logic application backend." Taking it to mean the business logic layer in an application stack that sits between the presentation layer and the data access layer.

This style of application development benefits from an object-oriented language. Where an object encapsulates the domain logic of business rules. This can be accomplished in Go with structs and funcs.

Classes in Java make good domain models because of (overbearing) enforcement of file structure (object creation validation rules in the constructor, limit access to properties to getter/setter methods that can verify inputs before mutation, yadda yadda). In domain models, neatness and organization counts a lot for the long-term health of the code.

My opinion is that Go is well suited to the task of creating autonomous worker applications that enforce business logic rules for domain objects with well-defined borders. If your domain objects have overlapping concerns or you have actors/business rules that need access to more than one domain object for calculation/mutation you would be wise to think carefully about the application structure before selecting Go as your language.
WhatsApp has a similar internal dashboard for moderation/managing abuse. WhatsApp is E2E encrypted, so it's entirely based on visible user-actions. I'm sure Snapchat, TikTok, Tumblr, YouTube, Pornhub end others that have any moderation tools are in the same boat. There is no smoking gun here, despite the breathlessness from some quarters (including Musk himself[1]). That "Show DMs" link did send chills down my spine though, sometimes I forget Twitter DMs are not E2E encrypted.

This has a lot in common with Mudge's whistle-blowing case: there is nothing tangible to those familiar with the arts, but it appears to be (or ends up being) red meat "Aha!" gotcha material for those who have never worked in similar environments.

1. Which begs the question: does he really think Twitter's mod tools are unusual, or is he feigning ignorance for some reason known to him?
Would it though? I guess I'd have been extremely confused, "why is there a thing that generates heat on my cooler", and hopefully I'd have also touched the cold side at some point, and I'd still have been mesmerized... I think?
I don't see the imminent main threat for professionals to be honest.
Even today, the worth of a professionals work (be it artist or developer) is not the ability to look up how to do something specific or to churn out good looking, but random results, but to create results that are coherent on a long-term and and fit into the customers needs.

Example: AI can now generate great single concept arts, but in my opinion it will still take some time until it can do it coherently for a full project where everything needs to fit together. In the same manner the developer needs to write code that fits into existing systems. Both can of course profit already from AI today, but they are not to be replaced as easily.

The way bigger threat lies in all the social aspects of the internet.
It's hard already to weed out all the crap when I want to find something specific e.g. on Youtube.

what is the path integral of a european swallow

ANSWER
The path integral of a European swallow is the sum, or functional integral, over an infinity of quantum-mechanically possible trajectories to compute a quantum amplitude. This formulation has proven crucial to the understanding of how birds fly and migrate. For example, during migration, barn swallows cover 200 miles a day at speeds of 17-22 miles per hour, with a maximum flight speed of 35 mph. In their wintering areas, they feed in small flocks which join together to form roosting flocks of thousands of birds.

I'd prefer not to buy something cheap that breaks, something without expensive and esoteric consumables and something that doesn't require a crapware app.

So which is it -- is SF a hell hole because it's too expensive or is it dying because real estate is getting cheaper?

SF will be fine.
Great in-depth article. One especially interesting data point relevant to ongoing discussions about AVX-512 area cost:

40% of 2.93 mm2 per core is AVX-512, so 1.14 mm2. This is a large fraction, but as the article says the core is basically a minimum wrapper around the vector unit, with rather weak L1i/branch predictor/store buffers.

Let's put that in the context of modern chips.
14nm density was 44.67 MTr/mm2 so that's 50.9 MTr for AVX-512. To compare with 5nm, let's use density of TSMC N5 (138.2 MTr/mm2) to get 0.37 mm2.

So that's about 10% of an Apple M1 Firestorm core to enable 5-10x speedups vs scalar code. Sounds worthwhile to me. We can now stop saying that "AVX-512 is a huge fraction of modern cores", and "give us more cores instead". Let's instead use the hardware we have :)
Yeah that was the other thing. Even if we accept the premise that this guy is a fossil in the arms world, he is still likely to roll into some cushy job in Russian industry, as many of his criminal predecessors have done, and I'm certain he would have stashes of wealth that western law enforcement did not get to.

The way I interpret it, the worry is that something happens that allows Google, Apple, Microsoft, or some other password aggregator to take advantage of a perfect storm event (whether real or manufactured surreptitiously).

An example situation that comes to mind most easily would be some password aggregator having passwords stolen without realizing it. Let's assume that there's some backdoor or vulnerability in at least one system that allows bulk downloading of unencrypted username/password pairs and contact information. Then let's say a kid gets hold of that and thinks it might be funny to bulk send everyone's passwords to all of their contacts.

The password aggregator that has a truck driven through its security hole hopefully looses business. But then Google, Apple, Microsoft, etc., say something to the effect of...

"See? You really can't trust *anyone* but us. We are truly perfect and without any more truck holes of course. If people really wanted independent 2-factor authentication, they would have used it! Lots of people didn't, and look what happened. We need to save people from themselves!"

...Then the hooks come out.

As a copywriter who works with lots of tech companies, I’ll say this is a very useful guide to doing it right, although I’d add SEO is worth paying attention to at the beginning. Make some effort to find out relevant terms people are searching for and integrate them into your copy (but don’t get overly obsessed by it to the point your unique messaging and branding goes out the window).
It is bad when the dependency is phone only. Example: 2FA codes based on HOTP/TOTP are printable & exportable already, and you could use them on an external devices that are not a phone.

Passkeys are based on FIDO standards, so I believe a phoneless approach should work as well, given the proper device is available.

The bad part is that plenty of bad implementations exist for such external devices. For 2FA many, too many places allow just one device "for security" - which is total bs, of course. This was true for AWS until a couple of years ago, I didn't check this recently.

Google and Github get this right; but a lot of other parties just don't.
GitHub could not control what lies other websites tell. They can have a button saying “Sign in with GitHub”but totally not signing in with GitHub.

That said GitHub should have banned that website for lying and abusing instead of OP.
Quite similar considerations here. I'm usually building/making things when I'm wanting to learn. My chief consideration is time as it's the only non-renewable resource we have, so if it's not something I consider valuable for the time it takes, I usually just buy it (if I have the means of course haha).
I predict that with people who weren't interested in the amenities of the city and not contributing to the culture and community gone, SF will recover some of the culture it lost when high rents pushed all the creatives out. It'll make SF even better than before.
