> if the product is actually terrible, no one will buy it (and thus the author won't be angry about it). The anger betrays their certainty that the product is actually more attractive than they'd hoped, and than they're claiming.

"People loudly disagree with X, this proves X right" has never been a convincing argument.

Just for one example, you have to know that the people who buy industrial equipment don't always communicate with the people who will be expected to use that equipment. "My boss is gonna get seduced by this shit and I'm gonna have to deal with it" is a perfectly legitimate concern.

For another, you've read enough tech news to know that people find terrible design annoying even if they don't expect to ever have to use it themselves, especially if it falls within their field of expertise.

SHA-1 cannot be trusted only when there is a possibility that both files whose hashes are compared have been created by an attacker.

While such a scenario may be plausible for a public file repository, so SHA-1 is a bad choice for a version control system like GIT, there are a lot of applications where this is impossible, so it is fine to use SHA-1.
> ...does not mean the government should coerce everyone...

Here you're presuming that the government's role in a pandemic is to wring their hands and issue PSA's. That might be what some folks want them to do these days, but when the legal foundations of public health policy were laid the government was expected to do quite a bit more.

> People have the right to do whatever they want with their bodies.

This might be your opinion, but the majority of your fellow citizens disagree with you. Try asking them about drug use, abortion, suicide, and other "purely personal" matters.

> People have the right to make the wrong choice.

Many wrong choices come with severe state-imposed consequences. We in the US long ago delegated to our elected representatives the authority to force some choices onto individuals, including in a health emergency. We are of course vigorously debating whether they used that authority wisely this time, but it was theirs to use.

Simple: non-profit, worker cooperative is the corporate structure, dunbar number for the max social circle size, users moderate content, and no global/public/viral content at all. Open source software running on open source software.

Here's my counter thought to some huge platform technically speaking. We have these massively powerful devices in our pockets and everything is a web app, use the device to do more. Make content decentralized (no, not that crypto-bro or crypto-hater). Decentralize the storage of content to people's devices for things received. Then the platform itself is more of a message broker. Let users pick their cloud storage drug of choice (icloud, onedrive, google, dropbox, etc.) or abstract it away where you provision storage for them and charge beyond some sane limit but the client app gets the content from cloud storage (user defined or brokered). Once the content has been delivered to all users for a circle (max 150) its gone off the platform and when users view that historical content its local/cloud delivered (some caching algo to make it fast). Provide users the ability to tag content as archivable which just gives them a timeline feed of it they can browse whenever. Users literally own the content.
I don't care about excluding up to $500k. I care that billionaires entire fortune is excluded when they die. We can go round and round about which loopholes make sense. But in the end I don't think there is any reason that billions of dollars of equities should be excluded from paying capital gains taxes just because their owner died. You shouldn't get a tax advantage for dying. Selling everything you own the day after you die should have the same tax implications as selling everything the day before you die.

Yes, this is exactly right and is why Griffin-Lim generated audio often has a sort of warbly quality. If you use a large FFT you can mitigate the issues with pitch because the frequency resolution in your spectrogram is higher, so the phase isn't so critical to getting the right pitch. But the trade-off of a bigger FFT is that the pitches now have to be stationary for longer.

The other place where phase is critical is in impulse sounds like drum beats. A short impulse is essentially just energy over a broad range of frequencies, but the phases have been chosen such that all the frequencies cancel each other out everywhere except for one short duration where they all add constructively. Without the right phases, these kinds of sounds get smeared out in time and sound sort of flat and muffled. The typing example on their demo page is actually a good example of this.

I'm finding this hard to relate to. Our circumstances and experiences must be pretty different. But I'm afraid to me that sentence reads a bit like "I have a lathe so I don't need a bicycle". You or I might not do bicycle jobs, or lathe jobs, but it's a bit of a stretch to imply one renders the other irrelevant.

I find it interesting that you characterise static typing as about safety. I think it's more about communication. (for me this includes "communication to myself when I wrote this seven years ago and didn't think about it since", which I appreciate may be a bit of an edge case). Tests are also a great medium of communication, but a different one - in which case the metaphor becomes swap a sonnet for a sonata? I'd like both please, but maybe not always at the same time :-D

I have the exact, almost completely opposite opinion. Greenfield is where AI going to shine.

Maintenance is riddled with "gotcha's", business context, and legacy issues that were all handled and negotiated over outside of the development workflow.

By contrast, AI can pretty easily generate a new file based on some form of input.

The other day I copied a question from leetcode and asked GPT to solve it.
The solution had the correct structure to be interpreted by leetcode(Solution class, with the correct method name and signature, and with the same implementation of a linked list that leetcode would use). It made me feel like GPT was not implementing the solution for anything. Just copying and pasting some code it has read on the internet.

yeah, was also more annoying to use. it read trying to solve the problem of broadcasting everything to everyone, so it had this concept of circles, whereas Twitter people WANT everyone to see everything they say, either for like or conflict. Facebook was similar, but you could throw sheep at your friend/girl you liked, and it might be ambiguous.

The two things that stand out to me.

From published articles in the JAMA; vaccination related myocarditis in young men has much lower mortality and morbidity than from other causes. So were really talking about two different things here.

The second is rates of myocarditis after vaccination and the population base rate aren't the same thing either. The base rate one assumes includes cases triggered by something. So the base rate incorporates the rate of triggering events. So these rates are also not the same thing.
I think you are giving the AI too much credit in being able to pull out the trademarked bits. Artists can introduce trademark iconography into their work as a poision pill. Sort of like GPL but with more powerful allies.
It's not as bad in this thread, it's more that every single thread in this topic area has this sort of snark, if not the exact text template, as the number one or two comment.

Sure it's fair to say I should just ignore it. But I find it lowers the quality of discussion in a way I want to protest, so I'm doing so. It's a zero effort "dunk" posted reflexively.

If you'll let me ramble a little bit, part of why I push back on this sort of behavior is because of growing up around evangelical extremists. A huge part of their behavior is using and re-enforcing what I call "thought ending cliches." These are one size fits all rhetorical quips that function to shut down conversation. "Well it's all part of God's mysterious plan" being the most basic famous one. Climate change? "It goes in cycles." You get the idea.

This kind of empty reflexive contrarian snark does the exact same thing, so no, I don't see it in a positive light. It's not just a joke, it's a joke intended to shame people into stopping discussion.

> There is no world imaginable where the concept of owning ideas should be protected.

Copyright does not apply to ideas, it applies to specific expressions/implementations of those ideas, which is what it seeks to incentivize. The fact that many companies (particularly Disney) sued people who only copied the ideas and not the expressions shows a failure of the legal system, not copyright.

I've had my ups and downs with peer review. I'm trying to collect stories of papers from ideation to publication, while also describing the struggle for my own papers.

I've written the backstories for 30 of my papers here: https://jeffhuang.com/struggle_for_each_paper/

Looking at my past experiences for all my papers, I can only conclude that the process is more nuanced than can be described in a tagline like "peer review is broken" or "publishing is random", so I'm interested in hearing everyone else's experiences too.
> Who we ‘are’ is nothing close to what we have today.

I am wondering why you define being in terms of having. Is that a slip, or is that related to this:

> I want to just push that further and subjugate nature with automation that can feed us and manufacture worthless plastic and metal media consumption devices for us.

Because I can hear sadness in these words. I think we can feel thankful for having the opportunity to observe beauty and the universe and feel belonging to where we are and with who we are. Those free smartphones are not going to substitute that.

I do not mean we have to work because it is our fate or something like that.

> Your diatribe about not caring about humans is ironic.

A pity you feel that way. Maybe you interpreted "If you don't care about humans" as literally you, whereas I meant is as "If one doesn't care".

What I meant was is the assumption you seem to make that when a few have plenty of production means without needing the other 'human resources' anymore, those few will not spontaneously share their wealth with the world, so the others can have free smart phones and a life of consumption. Instead, those others will have to double down and start to compete with increasingly cheaper robots.

----

The pact in that old story I was talking about deals with the idea that we as humans know how to be evil. In the story, the consequence is that those first people had to leave paradise and from then on have to work for their survival.

I just mentioned it because the fact that we exploit not only nature, but other humans too if we are evil enough.
People that end up controlling the largest amounts of wealth are usually the most ruthless. That's why we need rules.
