I find this article extremely short sighted. When our tools surpass us in their capabilities it does not end human value or creativity but creates a means to lift it to an even higher level.
The paradox here for me is...isn't that fine? Having a tight labor market isn't per se bad. I don't buy that higher employment makes all prices higher by such a significant margin that we will see 8% YOY inflation as a result.

As with most thing, there is so much nuance that drives inflation. For instance, global supply chains are still disrupted or slowed across major industries. I think supply has way more to do with this, and "cutting demand" is like putting a band aid on a arterial wound. People are still going to bleed.

It feels like it puts the political & economic power back into business interest hands read more cynically, since the only gains labor has made in the last 2 years is due to said labor market tightening, even though labor is one of multiple factors in increased prices in the same period.

There's no "mix" policy here. I imagine some demand reduction is needed (if things are overheated like housing was in the past, for instance), but there is 0 acknowledgement that supply side issues will just simply continue to exist even when demand is lower because they still can't get raw material fast enough, and nobody is really doing anything about it.
Elon is a cokehead who just bought the biggest cartel.

We're watching a horrible social media addiction rage out of control in a person who has too many resources and power for anyone to tell him 'no'.

Elon was probably always a POS but on some level I feel bad for him like I feel bad for Notch. all that money, power, and opportunity and they can't help but to spend it all terminally online bickering with other terminally online people.

Per the GP, Toyota is making twice the total profit. They might have to sell more than twice as many cars to do it, but as you acknowledge, for Tesla to make that much profit, their margin would also likely decline.

Total profit matters more than margins, unless you have reason to believe the margins will hold true at any level.

Reversing the "cameras only" position is a step in the right direction. They are currently ~3 years behind collecting lidar data compared to Cruise / Waymo. I wonder if they'll be able to make it up with "ghost-rider" volume in 2023.
Is the argument here that there are too many JS frameworks, or that the complexity of the frameworks themselves tends to grow over time?

If the former, totally agree. If the latter, Java frameworks are plenty complicated.

Also not sure how you've missed a lot of other frameworks; Spring and J2EE are certainly not the only ones that have been around for 10+ years. Dropwizard, Vert.x, akka-http, GWT, Play... just to name a few.
Well, you can ask people to pay for support, or you can ask them to shut the fuck up. You can also do what they ask from you. You are free to choose.

A ban on a social media site is something done by a private party, not a function of the justice system.

So yes, bans can be done without any legal action. And really that's how it should be for the sake of proper function.

Waymos velocity seems to have slowed dramatically since 2015 when they first did fully driverless rides on the public road and started deploying to multiple regions.

Now, 2 billion dollars and 7 years later, they are still only in a handful of small regions with limited numbers of vehicles.

That tells me there is still some fundamental issue that is hard to solve. I wonder why they aren't more transparent and tell us what that issue is that they've been battling for 7 years?
It's tiring, but for those of us that have the humility to know, for example, that we aren't experts in implementing every last detail of WCAG-spec compliant accessibility --and the application I'm building requires it-- it's better to build on top of someone else's solution. There's so many pitfalls to quite easily writing un-semantic, incorrect HTML. Browsers are forgiving, but a screen reader won't be.
Great appeal to authority. Why not explain the technical reasons you believe Waymo will win?
Well, sucks for you. Europe wants Apple to compete with other software stores, and you'll be hard-pressed to defend Apple's stranglehold on software distribution.

It's fine that you enjoy Apple's curation, they can still curate things for you under the new law. They just also need to provide competitive app distribution. Considering how many complaints I've heard from devs vis-a-vis the App Store, I reckon some competition is exactly what Apple needs to put them in line.

Another advantage of the gomod2nix approach concerns long term build reproducibility [1]. Having each source dependency in its own derivation would make easier source code mirroring. Since Nix knows the hash of each sources, we could imagine to teach Nix how to get the source code from some other places than GitHub. For instance, Nix could use the hash of the dependency to query Software Heritage [2].

Note there is also an opened issue to restrict Nix fixed output derivation which would make impossible the buildGoModule "hack".

Because someone submits them, and others upvote them. It's really not complicated. There's no deep conspiracy to promote Tailscale here. They're not even a YC company.
Replying to myself: I guess the main point of this library is to use HTML as the protocol payload between serve and client, instead of JSON. I can see the benefit of doing that, although I have a bone to pick with the condemnation of all data APIs because JSON is awful. Protocol buffers, for example, are trivially forward and backward compatible and mostly self-describing.

Also if you build stuff on top of hypermedia APIs then bye bye performance. It's probably fine for web pages, because you're competing with JS+JSON/REST frameworks that are written by people who have never heard the term "L2 cache", but I strongly suspect the right move is to drop the framework completely, not replace it with a new flavour-of-the-week thing.

Just write HTML5. It's fine. Add javascript for the 2-3 bits of interactivity you actually need. If you hate JSON, use protobufs. Your web page will work forever, because it'll sit on the actual API provided by the browser, and it won't make my laptop overheat when I load your site.
I don't love the idea of implementing common app state logic via attributes. It probably works a lot better than I'm assuming, but it feels hacky to me. Like it can't solve every problem you'd actually encounter when making a complex app, so eventually you'll need to fall back to using javascript, and possibly a framework or three...on top of htmx.

But it does seem like this would be fun to play around with using PHP as your backend. No more JSON, or GraphQL, or bloated frameworks, just intermixed code and markup in the same PHP file...just like the good ol' days! For the situations where it does work, this could simplify the architecture of an app significantly.

I'm aware that I'm abusing the tool, but I wrote a htmx extension that overrides the mimetype and JSON encodes all the parameters. The JSON is decoded into a data bag on the back end. Basically I can do "fuck it over HTTP"[0] with needing close to zero JS. HTMX has been a god-send to me.

Where do you get Toyota's $40 B in profit?

Last fiscal year Toyota made $17 billion profit, which was less than $19 billion profit 6 years ago.

Profit growth rate is the crucial part of the info you skipped.

To simplify: market cap is ${CurrentProfit} * ${P/E}.

P/E is a reflection of profit (earnings) growth rate.

Since becoming profitable, Tesla has been growing profits at 50%+. They are the fastest growing large company in the stock market.

That growth is going to continue due to ramp of Giga Berlin, Giga Texas, introduction of cybertruck, Inflation Reduction Act which will turbocharge EV demand in US.

Toyota is not growing earnings at all.

Things are likely to go even worse in the near future. The EV market share is skyrocketing (25% in Europe, 30% in china) but Toyota has only 1 EV currently that isn't selling well.

It's rumored that they are scraping their old EV plans (make EVs based on current platform that was designed for easy manufacturability of both EVs and ICE cars in the same factory) and considering developing a new platform.

Platform that won't be available until 2026.

EV market share is likely to grow 50% YoY and during that time Toyota won't have EVs to sell. That won't end well.

Tesla is severely undervalued based on their forward P/E ratio, which is lower than for companies with much lower growth rate.
I think that is a fair critique, but that will be coming at some point, very likely. Either a law requiring 100% liquid reserves, or a law bringing them into the FDIC system.
I think maybe toxic in your circle. There are tons of Teslas where I live and I am only seeing more now.

>> to do what, exactly?

Elon's primary motivation, his 'Roko's Basilisk', is a massive DoD program, which requires Republicans to fund. Twitter helps him curry favors to earn these (potentially ~$1-2T) Republican-backed contracts.

Mike Griffin is the ringleader but he's only useful when Republicans are in power (see parts about Elon and Space Development Agency / SDI). https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_D._Griffin#Career

The DoD program is a space constellation of ballistic missile defense satellites for tracking and targeting nuclear ballistic missiles, including HGVs and hypersonic cruise missiles".[110] " However, (UCS) warns developments could escalate tensions with Russia and China and called the project "fundamentally destabilizing".[111] They later called for a treaty halting development to prevent an arms race in space.[112]

Starlink's military satellite development is overseen internally at SpaceX by retired four-star general Terrence J. O'Shaughnessy.[113][114] O'Shaughnessy advocated before the United States Senate Committee on Armed Services for a layered space capability with lethal follow-on that incorporates machine learning and artificial intelligence to gather and act upon sensor data quickly.[115]

I'm more and more convinced that some choices a society makes are just completely arbitrary - I'll let anyone take a crap job to make ends meet but I won't allow anyone to prostitute themselves - and there's nothing wrong with that.

The more important thing is not if it's allowed or not but if you allow it how do you deal with the problems it creates or if you forbid it how do you go about dealing with the problems that prohibition creates.

I don't think anyone should consider selling that level of intimacy reasonable - it's bad for both parties - but the approach towards stopping it needs to be done with a level of sympathy for both parties that's not typical for most things society disapproves of.
> but count_ones stays a bottleneck; I'm pretty sure you can't do that in O(1) even on a word RAM machine

It's actually easy to do logn bit operations in O(1) time on the kind of machine you are talking about too. Just make a table with the result of all (lg n)/2 bit inputs. Such a table only takes sqrt(n) memory and time to create, and since you seem to accept O(1) table lookups you now have count_ones in two lookups.

Similarly it's easy to make small tables that allow you to do arbitrary binary operations on (lg n)/4 bit strings.

> at least definitely not what most people have in mind when talking about computational complexity.

I'm pretty sure if you look in CLRS or any standard text book of algorithms, they allow lgn bit operations in constant time. Every heard people saying "Sorting takes O(n logn) time"? They are clearly assuming comparing two numbers can be done in constant time.

Also look at any lecture notes from actual CS researchers, like this: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~odonnell/toolkit13/Lecture05.pdf

> Doesn’t that imply that we need w ≥ log n?

> Answer: Yes! And that’s a standard assumption! The first time you see this it may seem totally weird: you’re assuming the computer hardware size depends on the input size?! That seems to make no sense. But once you calm down, it’s actually quite logical and cool. Of course you want a single pointer to fit into a word. You should just think of w as a parameter of the model, and w ≥ log n as an assumption.
So, do it. See what happens; WebKit is still loaded via MacOS because it's used to render UI elements that are considered part of the system. Unless you've modified the way default apps run on MacOS, WebKit should be loaded into memory from the moment you boot MacOS to the moment you shut it down.
You're generally on the hook for the rest of your contract, not just the phone.

But if you just don't pay, what are they supposed to do? They send it to collections, which has a small recovery rate. It's far more effective to use the phone lock.

And the culprit here hacked into T-Mobile's systems to get around their procedures. I also wouldn't be surprised if he was being paid precisely by a lot of people who signed up for contracts and expensive phones with a stolen credit card and stolen identity.

This article is truly garbage, I would believe it's a cherrypicked AI generated article tbh. Here's the summary:

[4 Paragraphs to say that AI exists and it sucks]
[4 Paragraph of random references as though it proves the author's big brain]
Some digital artist name Jason Allen said “Art is dead, dude. It’s over. A.I. won. Humans lost.” Whether or not he was in some way or other joking, the comment is dead serious as an embodiment of the conceptual underpinnings of Generative AI: the point of these projects is to produce nihilism and despair about what humans do and can do.
Also, nihilism is reasonably understood by many political theorists to be the real heart of what we call fascism.
[Cherrypicked Silicon Valley citations "proving" that tech leadership also believes AI causes despair]
[Last paragraph of jumping to opinion-based conclusions unsupported by the actual "citations" in the article]

I feel like we need to raise the bar on the AI debates.
That Basis is the basis of basis is basically a surprise to me. TIL.
The article says he accepted money for "official TMobile" unlocks. That sounds fraudulent and likely involved money transfer over wires. So the first two counts you listed?
I think the main difference between assertions and static type-checking is that ... static checking can do its checks at compile time. That is a great feature for big projects.

But the benefit of assertions is they can express arbitrary requirements, not only about the type of each argument and result but also about intra-arguments relationships between arguments, and also between arguments and the result.

As an example I could say:

ok (argA < argB);
...
ok (result > argA - argB);

It's a tradeoff: More expressivity, simplicity and speed of development vs. earlier detection of type-errors.
I like gymzaal and hyperscript - they solve few cases but those cover something like 99% of what a average app needs.

My biggest pain point lies with the docs, there are not many of them and it takes time to figure out what’s happening

For example, there was no simple way to understand that both libraries are loaded correctly, also it wasn’t immediately obvious where to use htmx and where to start using hyperscript

There is an immense amount of criticism of Musk on Twitter. Automation tweeting a celebrity's current location seems very different than "criticism".
Nitpick: Twitter sued for Musk to finish the deal. You got it backwards but your point is otherwise solid.
Yeah, that I understand. I am not a huge fan of sending JSON that's not backwards compatible. Sending HTML is probably a good choice for some applications, but that was already well supported 20 years ago. Why is htmx better than one line of javascript saying `onload = function() { e.innerHTML = response.body` } ?
If the amount of accrued interest that's been avoided by the pause is greater than 10k, I presume.
