That's a shame. I was hoping it was something I could help with, but that's a bit beyond the scope of what I can fix myself.
It’s not, if your job is to onboard a new engineer. Those first few months make all the difference. If the “other parts” of your job prevent you from maximally optimizing the productivity of your new coworker, the compounding negative returns on that onboarding engineers time is incredibly expensive.

Unlike almost anything else you could be working on, turning someone from nonproductive to productive, or more productive, has compounding effects that can quickly help or hinder the longer term objectives
It's a computer program that can partially explain jokes. That's never happened before. Yes, it's not that great at it, but clearly something special is going on here. And we can expect it to improve significantly in the coming years and decades. What will GPT-10 be capable of?

To completely deny chatgpt the label of "AI" is a pretty big shifting of the goalposts.
I think the issue is, that this approach will lead to limitations. And with ChatGPT it's unclear to me whether there's any party tricks going on as well.

With jokes it could be algorithmic thing that will try to parse all of it, and it would not be a very impressive algorithm.

You just bruteforce weighted connections based on inputs to find what might match the best.

I don't know if it was able to recognise how pun jokes work by themselves or someone programmed it the idea of puns.

Is there logic in the code that says that it should look for multiple meanings if it's a joke or was it able to do that just from training?

If there's logic, then it just becomes bruteforcing when it knows that the current context is a "Joke", I should look for whether it could be a "pun" joke, or it could be a "unexpected ending" type of joke, and when I think it matches pun the best I would check all words to see which ones have double meaning.

I guess better question is. If you don't tell it, that something is a joke, would it be able to realise there's something funny or a pun in something someone said, without anyone instructing it to look out for that.
Personally I do all my personal coding in CL but it's a matter of taste. Another word for "moribund" is "stable" and that can be a good thing. But it really is mostly personal preference. And you might want to add Clojure to your list of languages to consider.

The reason I like CL is that I find it is a local optimum impedance match for my brain in language design space. But that is at least in part because I have been using it for 35 years so I am used to its quirks (of which there are many). But it also has lots of really nice features, some of which are still unique to CL and which I find indispensable to my coding style. Generic functions are at the top of that list, and a close second is the macro system.

Currency trading is negative sum. (Zero sum less friction.) So are most derivatives.

One must encapsulate broader effects to find a net gain. Incorporating crypto’s benefit to the poor is such an attempt.
And yet, I can still buy a "not smart" phone. Because enough people have voted with their wallets. There is a market worth $millions there and vendors willing to meet the demand.
The real difference is in scale. Automations can be coordinated to produce self-affirming bullshit at a scale that drives real discussion out of view. You already see this on twitter with troll farms and primitive bots. Now it will be a tidal wave

I met a guy who worked for IBM on the AS/400s. Apparently they had a 'server room' where they could control the temperature and humidity to basically any combination that was likely to occur in the real world and they would test all their hardware there under any extreme condition they could think of.
> I don't know about your friends, but playing Alyx opened my eyes to the level of immersion VR can achieve. It's a kind of gameplay that can't be repeated with 2d screens.

Every time I read something like this about VR I hear the same stuff I hear from like, audiophiles talking about gold plated cables and shit. I have a Rift, and I get a lot of use out of it for Beat Saber and VTOL VR, but there's no reason the latter can't be non-VR and I would categorize nearly everything I've ever played with it as a gimmick.

The experience is a little more immersive than a screen, but in my opinion not that significantly so especially considering all the drawbacks.
> missing some critical part in my comparison

Companies can sell stock to fund useful activity.
If you have a monopoly over a platform, what is there to keep you from being lazy? Plenty of rich lazy fools spend lavishly, it wouldn't be an original story.
What incentive does the seller have to be honest? They could easily claim something is "repairable," and then when someone calls them out for using pentalobe screws, glued glass displays, and soldered-in storage and memory, reply "That's repairable, you just need a pentalobe screwdriver set, a heat gun, spudgers, a high quality soldering iron and flux, and a reflow soldering station."

I'd just like to be able to see (before I buy) objective numbers for things like SSD write lifetime, display burn-in rate, and battery capacity degradation next to information about what kind of tools I would need to replace them myself, and maybe how much it costs to have the manufacturer replace them, if they offer that service. That way I can decide that maybe I'm okay with a soldered battery, since it will probably last 10 years with my usage patterns and the manufacturer will replace it for $60.

I'm somewhat sympathetic to the idea that companies shouldn't be _forced_ to make their products repairable at the expense of other design considerations, but they should certainly be forced to be upfront about it if they don't.
1,600 seems a little high, my memory was about half of that. 100% due to the evacuation, not the reactor. It's just politically inconvenient deaths tend to get labeled something else, often the underlying condition that was exacerbated by whatever the issue da jour is. I've never seen a breakdown of exactly what caused the evacuation deaths but when you go shipping a bunch of frail patients around in a total mess you should *expect* deaths.

During orientation in my freshman year, we were told (off the record, by some seniors) the steam tunnels have been permanently closed for years, despite the huge convenience they used to provide by connecting far-away buildings underground in the winter when it gets extremely cold, because an alarming number of rapes/sexual assaults had happened down there.

Never really verified whether that was true. I wonder how this photographer was able to get down there.

Whatever you resist persists. Thinking about not wanting to be overweight makes me feel bad and defeated. Thinking about wanting to get fit gives me a sense of hope, and agency. Put another way thinking about what I don't want begs the question of what do I want and then I can put energy into that. Of course this does not apply to everything e.g. certain chronic diseases.
I think ChatGPT may be sort of intuition, gut feel type of thing that people will get a quick feeling based on input, but it won't be something that is able to do novel thought or critical thinking.

Well Corbyn is also a completely hopeless politician. They really should have kept him safely tucked away in Islington north. It's not his political ideology which was the problem, it's that he (not to put too fine a point on it) lacked any modicum of political ability).

One of the problems is that the UK democracy is not very strictly encoded (which Tory politicians will happily tell you is one of the wonders of the British consitution and then a whole bunch of drivel about freedom vs tyranny) - whereas e.g. Germany and France have things encoded that politicians shouldn't be allowed to do (bribery, corruption, etc.) the UK has this very weird theory that politicians should be allowed to self-police and have this ludicrous "no rules were broken" based on investigations carried out by civil servants (e.g. Sue Gray report) which in reality should be carried out by the courts (although I guess Dominic Raab has managed to blow such a big hole in the justice system that we should just be thankful that we at least still nominally posess one).

The reason you spend that time is because of the rules.

Actually, the homeless rate in Edinburgh (which actually has an eviction ban and, even, rent controls now) is 3x the rate of SF...the reason why is that most of the rental market disappeared because eviction control meant that landlords could only sell properties at the end of rental periods (and when these came up in September, they all just removed properties from the market because house prices are going to be lower next September).

The law of unintended consequences. The govt tried to take control, and it has made the problem significantly worse. This is the economic problem that the UK faces in a nutshell: voters want things that are economically damaging (the situation with housing is probably 10x Brexit), they don't understand why they are damaging, and when the damage comes they blame someone else (and btw, the most amazing thing is that if you look at a city like Edinburgh...the people are VOTING for the people who are promising not to build any housing WHILST they are complaining about a lack of housing...it is the kind of thing that makes you realise that people are getting what they are asked for).
> You buy or make a thermal chamber and cycle release versions of your device before you ship one.

That is a total waste of time in a startup with a small number of units shipped.

A component behaving out of spec due to temperature excursions simply isn't that common nowadays. If my system is mostly ADC to digital to DAC (standard for robotics controllers), testing for temperature is a waste until I'm shipping significant volumes.

There is a video of one of the slightly famous YouTubers who has a high voltage thing that fails at the altitude of his lab. The manufacturer did check it for function at the elevation of Denver, but his lab is higher than that. There are limits to how much engineering effort you should put in until you get an actual failure. (Maybe someone can link the video as I can't remember it at this point.)

You can waste infinite engineering effort covering all possibilities. Or you can ship the thing and fix the failures. "Good engineering" is about balancing the two--you need to ship, but you don't want to have too many failures in the field either.
> but the issue of things not lining up is primarily one of using coordinate systems correctly, knowing what things were measure in and what they are shown in

Not in my experience. Two satellite/plane pictures from the same provider can be shifted by several meters. Buildings hand-drawn in OSM are rarely perfectly correct, and won't fit most images anyway due to the first point.

Conversions between coordinate systems are precise up to floating-point errors, that's the easy part and more or less solved by geo-referenced data formats.
And different fonts.
Yea, it was great. But it was more lack of maintenance than anything. The original chat devs were passionate about open federation. The new devs were not.

Add to that it was a big source of spam that nobody wanted to deal with.

Apparently the team tried really hard to get more companies on board with opening up federation. But I think the only "major" service that did was what was left of AOL.

I absolutely detest self-checkouts as there is too much room for error, requiring human intervention anyway. On the other hand, Sam’s Club’s Scan and Go seems to be fantastic so far, and it’s a great example on how to do “self-checkout” the right way.

It disturbs me that your comment is "greyed out," whatever that means: you're speaking an obvious truth. The car-scale of American infrastructure is an impediment to physical health; it's an impediment to social capital, and therefore to democracy and to mental health, as well. It funnels us down restricted, commercial avenues--pun intended. It's physically dangerous, it's chemically toxic, it's ecologically destructive, and it's damned expensive to maintain!

It's obvious when I visit a city / countryside with poor transit and pedestrian infrastructure how much more I suffer. It's so damned obvious, it's the first thing that screams out to me right when I land / pull in / ride up.

I can't understand what literate person would take issue with the core of your assertions.

Only several decades earlier. This one is surrounded by six school buildings and three kindergardens (of course there are some other apartment buildings there as well).

Like a CPU that is surrounded by a troop of supporting chips.

I wonder which schools do kids of Corviale attend. Around it I can see all kind of stuff but only one school. Do they all fit?

Despite being a huge apartment complex, it seems very car-centric.

I disagree. I voted against it, but to properly have an informed enough opinion on it really required a good understanding of our economy and how it interacted with that of the EUs.

I believe Brexit was such a complex issue that most normal voters could not be expected to be able to be informed enough to actually weigh up the decision by any useful means other than relying on superficial emotional decision making or their historical political leanings.

I think there were possibly advantages of leaving had we made the most of them. (Not enough to persuade me, but the outcomes didn’t have to be all bad). Clearly we didn’t make the most of these potential upsides though and we were never going to because the gvnt was clearly not competent enough to see such a complex transition through successfully.

Having said that, after some cursory reading on the topic, outside of the normal media spin, I believed that we were better in then out. But I disagree that it was trivially obvious for the average voter to determine this. Especially with the ridiculous campaign promises and misdirection of the leave campaign (and I think the remain campaign didn’t do great either).

And even with my background reading, my vote to remain was based largely on a gut instinct rather than a deep conviction or understanding that I was taking the correct side. I think a lot of voters would say the same.

And I know many leave voters who almost immediately regretted voting that way. Such was the “coin toss” decision making for so many people.

Saying that Brexit was obviously a massive con (and the associated implication that leave voters did not sufficient inform themselves) is to risk drastically oversimplifying it.

I will agree that it is very obvious in retrospect that it was a terrible idea.
Prices also fell by 90% and everyone kept their savings with the Reichsmark, so I'd say no. Also, the Reichsmark collapsed because of the fall of Nazi Germany, it had nothing to do with the currency itself.

The Rentenmark was legitimately an absolute debacle, one of the worst of all time right up there with the Zimbabwean dollar

Let me put it in a less-fun way: "high reactance" is in this context just another way of saying "values freedom". Describing it using a wording that expresses psychologically-educated disapproval verbally pathologizes that preference, but it doesn't constitute a supported value judgment. In neither of your comments have you offered any support, so just like my "loves freedom", it remains an empty weasel-word.

The enlightened, then, know that the only purpose of ANY desktop environment is to start the correct program when I hit "super" and then type the first 3-4 characters of a program name. And to do that left/right screen split thing when you hit super+left/right.

I can't figure out how my workflow is that different from other linux users or if I'm just part of the silent majority. Literally all I ask of my DE is:

- the super+search thing i mentioned above
- run the following programs fullscreen: terminator, intellij, pycharm, vscodium, firefox

And... that's just it. Oh wait, one more thing:

- make video, wifi, audio, multiple monitors etc just work

It's in service of that last one that I've been pretty happy with Gnome 3 the whole time it's been out. None of their shuffles or excisions have interrupted my workflow, so I don't mind it at all.

With such heavy pixellation being overcome, you'd have to have a seriously different font to avoid the general patterns arising from basic letter shapes. I think simply guessing "times" vs "helvetica" brings you close enough to guess the letters. Optimize score by shuffling the baselines around a bit and go through all the letters to find the right ones and you should be good. Work in blocks of 3-5 letters while shuffling them around and stretching the spacing, you might even have a fairly good guess.
"I love how people are talking about how ChageGPT is gonna replace Google while Google just quietly uses a more advanced dialogue system behind the scenews. ChatGPT is a big step in the right direction but they're still a few years behind Google."

That's a really interesting assertion. If they are really that far ahead, then where is it and why aren't we as consumers working with it now?

And yes, ChatGPT has it's problems, but I find myself using it daily in replace of Google many times because it actually gives me the answer I'm after as opposed to a bunch of hits that are really just ads.
