That growth is only interesting for two types of companies. One software companies or similar industries where marginal costs are nearly zero, so rapid growth promises huge future profits. And two, companies that could form a monopoly out of that growth to be hugely profitable.

Tesla is neither of those things. So it's not a good long term investment, only a good short term one if the hype continues long enough and you can sell to someone else before profit realities kick in. The tricky thing is that you don't know when that will happen, could be 15 years from now, could be next month.

We don't have ECC mainly because Intel has long been hostile to "consumer" access to ECC.

Apparently this was conceived as a market segmentation scheme: people outfitting servers could get ECC when they pay a huge premium. They would thereby not be tempted to cheap out and buy consumer-grade equipment, otherwise wholly adequate to meet all their needs at a radically cheaper price.

That we cannot get laptops or even desk machines with ECC, and so have them crash frequently, is seen as a trivial side effect of the strategy. If you did not hate Intel enough before, you may increase your hatred accordingly. Intel doesn't hate you back; they simply care not even a little how you feel.

(Historically, just running Microsoft software was overwhelmingly more likely to be the cause of a crash than a memory bit-flip; and there were orders of magnitude fewer RAM bits at risk. Microsoft succeeded in getting customers to accept and even expect frequent crashes; before MS, a program crashing was grounds for a refund.)
By documentation, I believe people mean tutorials. At least, lack of tutorials is my complaint. I've read all introductory material. I want to build a customized version of emacs on nix, yet I have no idea how to do it or where to start.
Instances of "slamming into a jersey barrier" are on highways and by definition involve the legacy Autopilot stack and not the FSD beta vision stack. I agree that the tesla bros are extremely cringe, but I'm equally unimpressed with criticisms that rely upon ignorance of basic facts about the thing being criticised. Tesla is deserving of a lot of criticism for a lot of things, but they are clear about the distinction between Autopilot and FSD. Eliding this distinction in one's criticism gives the appearance of being uninformed.

Also your claim about contrast adaptation seems awfully specific, enough that I'm interested in a citation. There's plenty of evidence that their imaging sensors do adapt well in high dynamic range circumstances.
Yup mine was 5000 too. I'm baffled as to why they don't force an upgrade on everyone the next time they log in.

Old accounts that haven't been touched in years, sure. But active accounts being used daily? This is really unfathomable.
That's not often a requirement for many companies. Most companies end up with a different backend technology for a diverse range of reasons.
A lot of people saying AI generated content will dominate search engines and the web in general. What will happen when AI kills all human generated content? There wont be new training data to scrape. What happens? Will it consume itself in a death spiral of bullshit content or will it make us so dependent that its bullshit content will become common sense to our future (even more) brain damaged selves?
I also think Russia will mostly withdraw from Ukraine. What do you think will happen with Crimea? I think that will remain with Russia for a long, long time, like Turkish Cypress. The rebuilding process in Ukraine will take 20+ years and cost crazy 100s of billions of Euro. The damage looks similar to fire-bombed cities during World War II (both Germany and Japan).

And to be real: I am so sad about COVID-19 in China. I am sad because it is preventable but the gov't doesn't want to lose face and allow mRNA vaccines to be imported. I think millions of elderly people will die in China. It is a humanitarian crisis. Sorry to any Chinese people here that will lose grandparents to COVID-19. It is a shame.
I sold a line of high end r&d tools to university labs; they became engines to knock off each others work. The least ethical group of buyers I ever worked with!
Sorry, do you mean a lot of them became Christian, or "Christian", i.e. Republicans?
What about for multi-factor auth? Are these phone numbers leaked too?
Its just that I care more about my comfort than wear on the engine
I’m trying to add just supplements I need. NAD+ or its precursors would be nice in a few years (maybe when I’m 35). I’m curious though: why mushroom complex?

Yeah. I don-t do Zone Diet anymore. Today I just try to eat as varied as possible focusing on getting at least 2g of proteins for every 1kg of weight (I live in the Mediterranean so it-is pretty easy to do). I am trying to introduce intermittent fasting though.
You could turn the verification around. Instead of texting a value to a phone number and asking you to toe it in, you say “Text this number to 40404: 123456”

Then, wait until someone texts that number in, and salt/hash the caller ID number and compare it to what you’ve got stored. If there’s a match, then you’re authenticated.

Probably lots of issues with this from ux perspective…
Love when people call money this way. 10 monies is adorable and Imma start doing this all the time now
It's so much harder to pull it off with the huge range in screen sizes and resolutions. Back then you could make an 800x600 (or maybe even up to 960 width) design and it would work on 99% of the monitors (rarely did anyone have more than 1024x768).
I don't think I ever gave twitter my phone number. Was that ever a requirement or is that just in case you need to reset your password?

I think you're using a different interpretation of meaning than other people in the thread. It looks like you're using "meaning" in the sense of "that which hints at a deeper design beyond our own", while others use "meaning" in the sense of "that which brings personal fulfillment".
Financial advice?
100% agreed. Paying for a major brand password manager, you should assume that you are paying for them to always keep the security totally up-to-date with best practices. The idea that you are somehow responsible for finding an obscure setting not just in "Account settings" but in a separate "Advanced settings" that defaults to hidden, and knowing the appropriate number to set it to, boggles the mind.

They're weird about it, sometimes you have to and sometimes they never ask. It's not like Twitter where you can use the site for an hour before they force you to verify. They probably do it so people will say what you said when people point out the problems with it.
Side info - here is the major recent revelation about human nature that is backed by the largest social study of its kind:

A lot of web3 companies will file for chapter 11.
This is incorrect as I understand it.

See: https://www.reddit.com/r/1Password/comments/za0zpn/any_vault...

They specifically do encrypt everything, with URLs being only briefly exposed for favicons (a feature you can turn off easily in 1P and in bitwarden where it is also done.)
That is the true secret.
The hackers got access to their dev environment and source code back in August and used that information to hit them harder this time around: https://blog.lastpass.com/2022/12/notice-of-recent-security-...

We may not be seeing the whole picture yet, but very concerning that the dev environment had access to Production database backups stored in a manner that was easily decrypt-able :/ The whole point of a Dev environment in a security focused company is that you reduce the surface area for access and failure.
Presenting policies as facts of life (like Meta also does) is usually done to keep the abuse teams away from those angry customers and so they don’t have to reveal their anti-spam techniques. Security by obscurity does work for a while.

There are ways to get companies to actually pay attention to you; a good place to start is sending registered mail to an executive in a way that looks like you might be a lawyer. patio11 has more advice on this.
Yup, been there.

Way back I had a Pentium 133 doing firewall duty in a closet. It did approximately nothing besides iptables, but of course any machine has logs, updates and so on going on.

After running fine for months one day it suddenly died. I rebooted it. A few days later it died again. Another reboot. Then it died for the last time and failed to boot at all. Examination showed the disk was corrupt and couldn't be mounted. Further examination showed that one of the memory modules was loose for some reason, could be that it was never firmly in and I just bumped the box when messing with something else.

Then came the wasted weekend of dealing with that my normal internet connection relied on the thing that was now completely broken.

And that was the luckiest case I can imagine, when the broken machine contains no data of actual value. Since then I'm very paranoid, always run memtest on any new RAM I buy overnight, and have ECC where it's possible to have it.
One of the things I like about Cicero is that he shows that event when one is not perfect, you can consistently improve yourself and others. Cicero was kind of a disgusting person, to me - he was very vain, easily influenced by popular opinion and wanting to fit in, wanted to be close to men of power, changed his position on topics based on what was politically convenient, and so on.

But he also was a great thinker. And as he aged, he was forced to confront his own declining capabilities. And I think some regrets around the above "failed" personality traits lead to him realizing that the only way to be "successful" in old age is to have been moral, as your own brain sees it, when you were young.

So it's interesting that so much of how we judge ourselves is based on what we ourselves believe is right and wrong... and you can't escape that, it seems.
You don't sign into a website forcing you to give them your real phone number if you fear being doxxed. How can anybody feel "anonymous" at that point?
It's just getting started. We're on the verge of seeing the first few billionaire influencers emerge. That will definitely turn heads and drive more money towards that direction. We're also seeing the rise of the children of tech money (I forgot the name to reference this group of people), but they're going to be heavy on influencer lifecycles too.
Ah the 70’s. Basic and the mass of Basic games: typed in, shared, improved upon. All those super star treks…. And Life, something that consumed a fair bit of printer paper and could be done in any language. Might have been more Life implementations than Star Trek. Chess (and checker) programs, which was often an introduction to assembly language but it could be done in Fortran. And the pdp-8 that got computing “small” - you could do a lot in a trivial amount of memory if you worked at it.

The biggest difference was that the size and relative scarcity of computers and terminals made things social. Learning and showing, having one’s rough edges ground down a bit in order to get on the schedule. The whole “we did x, so maybe we can do y” hacking approach. It’s liberating not knowing what can’t be done.

How many programmers work on last pass? From a solo coder with no specific interest in cryptography I wouldn't find this kind of flaw odd.

From a large development team whose sole product centers around encryption? It seems strange to get it this wrong. What leads to that might make a good business case study.
As some other has pointed out this sounds way too disruptive to be true (how exactly would 200k deaths change the entire prospect of the war?).

Why would the US need to replace zelensky with a "puppet"? Ukraine wants US boots in Ukraine.

China recovery of their GDP is going to happen how? They got multiple issues systemically destroying their GDP growth (pollution, corruption, housing market collapse, over fishing, bad policies being enforced with no room for negotiation, etc. ).

Just to name a few.
- Cryptocurrencies will decline to pre pandemic prices and will begin to fade into irrelevance for the general public.

- Putin dies, Russia is destabilized.

- A new covid variant emerges from China, no one in the Western world will care.

- Everyone will talk about deglobalization, but in actuality the world will become even more globalized.

- 2023 will be the year a lot of people in 2030 will look back on as a golden age for new company formation.

- The US will see an openly atheist presidential candidate or a Senator will come out as an atheist.
More effective would be to have a button I can tap in the phone app labeled "waste this person's time", which would automatically attach the caller to an AI designed to maximize the amount of time the caller wastes on each call.
Prop destructuring isn't necessary. A lot of people changed to accessing the props via property access and this is often a better approach for conciseness. Don't force yourself to do something stylistic if it doesn't fit!
Why do you think 6 is a given? Has political tension in the US just got to breaking point?
Also if you want to verify the data is legit you can pick a random verified user and try to send them $25 with Venmo. It will ask you to confirm their phone number. Sure looks legit to me though.
There's also CodeGen[0], but you'll likely get poorer results then any OpenAI product.

The catch as I can see it is with the complexity and issues of combining OSM with a bunch of other data sources. This is what Apple used to do before shipping their own maps. Most of us remember some of the highly publicized issues that were associated with that. I also noticed that Apple, who is (was?) also a heavy OSM consumer, is conspicuously missing from this list.
How long till we see a programming language made for AI?
seems like the programming languages we have now are not ideal for the human - ai interactivity. probably the next step would be a new language that skips the human coder and is optimized for prompts?
>266 bit errors per month

That seems like an overestimate. How can memtest ever pass on non-ECC RAM if errors are that frequent?
Interesting solution! I’ve never heard of this but it makes sense, like a captcha for phone calls. I’m in the US and have had to stop answering my phone thanks to 2-3 spam calls per day.

The real answer is for the phone companies to use a protocol that doesn’t allow easy spoofing of any phone number (I believe one has been proposed but not adopted). Hilariously, I even have a medical provider app called Doximity that abuses this network ‘feature’ to disguise a doctor’s personal cell phone as the phone number of their medical clinic.
I half expected a card game made out of punched cards. Which would be a cool idea, now that I think of it.
My predictions are all contrary to yours.
Yes, but the secret is virtue signaling doesn't require them to do it. They just need to tell other people to do it.
> War in Russia will go on.

There is no war in Russia. Russia is at war, but that war is happening in a country called Ukraine.
- Putin dies

- The fascist russian federation collapses

- I return to Ukraine
True, AI can take any human communication and repurpose it, if it has access.

People keep forgetting the shortcuts AI can take. ChatGPT takes shortcuts to another level. Bypass understanding the meaning and go straight to the output.
I had the same thought earlier this year when I saw what Midjourney is capable of. The style that I’d spent many years in my youth trying to master was now available at a push of a button.

It felt like I had dodged a bullet by switching to programming instead of pursuing an art career. That happened primarily because I realized fairly quickly that my talent was quite limited and there were thousands of better artists in this space, everyone competing over the Internet. Specializing on a programming niche felt like a better long-term plan.
Electrically powered vechicles have always been touted as futuristic in nature. This in turn has led people to think that if an electric vechicle isn't something from a cyberpunk future with colored leds and autopilot, then they shouldn't bother switching.
re #3, aren't the senior Kremlin figures just as pro-war/Z as Putin (or even more so)? This would suggest that unless politics in Russia is completely upended in the event of Putin dying or being incapacitated, the war would likely continue or escalate :-/
> The larger point is should a foundation serve logicians interested in designing mathematical foundations or practitioners interested in formalising proofs (and specifications)?

I think this question can easily be answered in the affirmative. A key point of HoTT and univalence is that being able to work with isomorphism as if it was equality, and freely transport proofs and functions 'across' isomorphisms, makes for more intuitive proofs that get less bogged down in issues of logical formalism and closer to what a practitioner would want to write.
> But really most of all I live in a world of Git repositories. My entire Emacs config is versioned under Git (I know YMMV but I like it that way). Some people version under Git their entire user dir.

Git will break if RAM is bad just like anything else. That it checksums everything won't save you from checking in corrupt data, the filesystem itself being corrupt, or some internal git structure becoming corrupt. Losing your repo because something in it was written wrong is very much a possibility.

Having multiple machines involved helps, but it's not a complete fix, because the possibility exists of something damaged being transmitted from a broken machine to a good one, ensuring there's no good copy anywhere.

There's really nothing software can do to operate correctly with bad RAM all of the time. Instructions for the software are in RAM. The OS that the software expects to behave right is in RAM. Various buffers used for disk access and networking are in RAM. An application like git assumes all of that is performing correctly, and can't compensate for every possible malfunction that could happen.
A straightforward reading of their comment is that they can confirm because they have an active account with 5000 iterations. That would certainly explain the frown.

It's not like you need to work at LastPass or have deep expertise in the domain to look at your own account.
I think that makes the reference class "Buy Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, yes the country, to gain control of the TLD that this forum is hosted on".

Probably cheaper than Twitter, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines' GDP[0] is about half of SpaceX's revenue.

[0] yes I know that's not the same thing as "net worth", and also countries are not generally for sale, despite things like the Alaska and Louisiana purchases.
I did a little bit of poking around on Google Scholar, and while it shows me that I have a few dozen posts cited in academic papers, none of those posts show up as their own entry in the results.
I suspect that even non-random passwords here are fine, again practically speaking (edit: and given certain assumptions, to be clear, like no reuse), but haven't sat down and proved it.

Obviously this isn't an endorsement of LastPass. Everything about their protocols is disappointing. Even if the encryption issues turn out to be of the well-that-was-a-dumb-choice-but-you-don't-need-to-panic variety, it's because they got lucky, not because they were good.

Many entities have released cherry-picked marketing videos of autonomy appearing to work perfectly under controlled conditions. About as convincing as TV commercials for supermarket deodorant that link use of their product to sexual desirability.

Whether Tesla is ahead or far behind others, they're the only ones exposing their technology to unsupervised assessment by independent third parties in uncontrolled, adversarial conditions. On the other hand Waymo have real, productive, actually driverless cars operating within geofenced areas right now. How do you compare the two? Anyone who claims to know which of the two is "ahead" is either smuggling in unstated qualifiers, or they're blowing smoke.
Exactly. This happened to me multiple times. I even had accounts for some of my side projects with phone numbers that got suspended.
In your scenario, the 10% who are running forked software risk losing all their deposit by double-signing blocks on the same network and chain ID as the majority 90%. In practice, if 10% wanted to split off from the majority and run incompatible clients, they would be forced to use a different network or chain id, which means they are running a different blockchain.
It's not at all hard to see the end of the blockbuster-multiplex studio-cinema model. Surely it'll take a few years but this year is absolutely grim. The top 15 superhero movies all time or in other words those that earned above a billion (and that's without adjusting for inflation) are all pre-COVID. The 2022 box office is a complete mess: domestically you had seven movies which were making significant money and that's about it. The average of 2017-2019 domestic box office was 11B, adjusted for inflation that's like 12B so this year is about 60% of the good ole' years. That's not "recovery" that's more like "unmitigated disaster".

Internationally the #14 movie made 391M at the box office and it was a complete flop and the #15 made only 286M -- basically, the revenue just dropped off a cliff at that point.

Look at 2019, family movies completely ruled the chart: The Lion King, Frozen II, Toy Story 4, Aladdin (these four made over a billion), How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World...

In 2022, you have Minions: The Rise of Gru and Sonic the Hedgehog 2 and ... that's it. So much so that I think Lightyear will be used in the histories to mark the beginning of the end.

And look at next year's slate: who wants another Indy movie after bloody aliens and that fridge? Hunger Games without Jennifer Lawrence? Family movie wise, what are we even looking at aside from Mario?

The game is over. Cinemas need to find a new value proposition, a $100 movie night for a family of four is just not attractive any more. They can just watch Disney+.
