Drive, iTunes and photo sync, and keychain all work well on Windows these days too! Notes, reminders, and the rest of the web apps work well enough too. A windows/gaming pc plus a MacBook is a pretty good combination now.
Interesting idea. I usually have books on the shelf that can be easily reached. Also I read every day, and after a few months it is just a habit. I like the feeling when I focus only on the book. Even though I don't have distraction from tech and other stuff, I have my mind to conquer. So it's easier just to fight with you mind than with mind and tech and all other distractions.

> for example EU flight compensation (companies like https://www.airhelp.com/en-int/)

I really don't like companies like that. EU flight compensation is really easy. Airlines have a simple webform that you fill out, and you get your money 1-2 weeks later. Companies like AirHelp make it sound like a really hard and difficult process, then take a big cut of your compensation as payment. And the SEO the crap out of it, drowning out the real claim webforms from the airlines themselves.

Purifiers are all about the filters, anything else is pretty much just marketing BS.

On that note, Ikea has some air purifiers[0] that aren't very expensive and use HEPA filters with optional carbon filter to remove smells. They have basic ones and 'smart' ones in different form factors (even one that is a table!). We have cats and it really helped removed the cat smell from out house.

> I care more that I can still heat up food and water even when the power's out.

I keep a small portable stove adapter which is pretty powerful. It screws to small LPG containers which I can buy anywhere, and provides ample power in a small footprint.

I have a full canister and this adapter [0], and if I ever need to heat something w/o electricity, I just take this out from my storage room.

We are using this setup at a couple locations, one of them is pretty remote, and proved to be very reliable for us during the last decade or so. All locations have electric stoves otherwise.

Very skeptical of this because the AI is so strong that safety and quality will always be an issue and if safety isn’t an issue the output may not be that interesting because the model is strongly curbed.

For example, I saw a Twitter post where a podcaster said the AI generated introduction for his podcast was better than anything he could write. I think the takeaway is that his writing isn’t that good and he also thinks boilerplate is impressive.

The problem with even the flat-bottom wok or concave cooktop is that you’re still missing out on some wok cooking techniques. E.g. flambé, wok tilting (for concentrating on a thick/stubborn part of a fish), wok throwing (do you want to risk banging your flat-bottom wok on the induction surface?).
As far as consumer interest goes, the problem with Web3 is it sells the means rather than the end. Nobody cares if your Twitter/Substack/Spotify Web3 alternative is decentralised or you own your own data on the platform. To win it has to be immediately useful and/or better than alternatives.

Content generation AI is so obviously useful to the majority of people and it does not require an understanding of how it works in order to be impressed by it.

I hope the EU/US Government makes this happen _before_ they force alternate browser engines on iOS -- that ~50% of mobile market share is the only thing preserving any resemblance of the open internet right now, and I fear that the lag between those two regulatory actions will effectively gift Google a monopoly on browser engines.

Teams and Slack need better notification settings. I was part of this org that I had to mute multiple channels because Slack would still show the unread counter mixed in with my real messages I had to go in and clear. These tools need a notification delay option where you can say "Notify of mentions every 15/30 minutes". You couldn't, as a programmer, get any work done if someone stopped by to say something to you at your desk every 5 minutes and I'm surprised they don't have these settings in place already.
Sure, but the staging area isn’t something you need to understand deeply to use Git since most common tools abstract it. Given how much more frequently the researchers’ subjects mentioned it, the big win would appear to be avoiding merge conflicts and better tools for reconciling them.

It works well with linear algebra, if you want to do that. If you don't, then there's no need to mess around with matrices, etc.
But are we really post-scarcity on nearly every measure?

Take nice housing in a nice town in a nice location (good climate, pleasant nature, far from the industrial complexes churning out the post-scarcity goods, good culture which takes time to build). Who gets to live there and why? Who gets to travel there to spend a few weeks of their year? These are not all identical - some are more desired by more people to make them more scarce. So you naturally have scarcity.

Furthermore, the current production levels and resource management depend on productivity. And productivity depends on incentives. Take away the incentives (in an absolute 'sharing economy' you speak of), and suddenly you will have an increase of scarcity in places where you thought scarcity to have been solved.
On SGI it was TAV (The Advanced Visualizer) from Wavefront. Wavefront bought TDI Explore which was used by a ton of studios. Wavefront then released Kinematic and Dynamation which were both game changers for IK and particles. Softimage was also big, which was bought by Microsoft. Houdini was very powerful but expensive and hard to use. SGI bought Alias Research and Wavefront and merged them together. That's where Maya came from. Autodesk eventually got all of the AW assets after SGI's first bankruptcy.

> It has little or no “ethics”: broad principles which explain why particular actions and traits are good or bad.

This isn't true. Acting in certain ways is not to be done because it causes misery to those you inflict it upon. The Buddha explains why you should act ethically: because it causes you distress and others distress.

This article is of poor quality. It appears most critiques of Buddhism wish to misunderstand it right from the beginning. Quoting other academic scholars who also misunderstand Buddhism, as your article does, is not making sound arguments.

Here's just one entire sutta on good and bad ethical action and why one should act in this way:

> ‘If someone were to distort my meaning by lying, I wouldn’t like it. But if I were to distort someone else’s meaning by lying, they wouldn’t like it either. The thing that is disliked by me is also disliked by someone else. Since I dislike this thing, how can I inflict it on others?’ Reflecting in this way, they give up lying themselves. And they encourage others to give up lying, praising the giving up of lying. So their verbal behavior is purified in three points.

... thus reducing their exposure to our content marketing texts and/or ads embedded on the page, thereby impacting our bottom line!

I think it's safe to assume most people capable of choosing "stupid unoptimized color schemes and font sizes" are also capable of iterating on their choice, or reverting to the better defaults, when they feel the reading experience of things they want to read worsens.

Possibly, and we don't have that will. Germany's energy policy with transition to renewable is lagging / failing because we can't build new & larger interconnections between regions because some field mice might be impacted or some neighbor doesn't want their view ruined.

Disclaimer: I am the author of this article.

I wrote this sentence three months ago. Since then people already pointed out that mobile banking is being used as escape hatch. The question is still: how many people do this? Everyone younger than 30? Or only 80% of them? Or only people who are moderately tech-savvy?

Are there any reliable statistics on that?
Most of them hinge upon incredible yet highly nebulous improvements to the technology to solve as-yet unsolved problems based on a lot of extrapolation based on hype and "dude trust me the next thing is gonna be great"'s from AI companies, and a generally poor understanding of how the technology works and what its limitations are.

The central logic error is something along the lines of "I don't understand the limitations of this technology, therefore it must have no limitations".

> human society will move back to personal interaction

Which implies a much narrower, less diverse, more elitist system of both politics and economy, as it gets harder to trust people from outside your existing circle.
Impressive for sure. Usefulness is still being explored (outside of a few early things like Copilot).

The majority of people are still interacting with this stuff primarily as a toy, and while it's a much, much smaller leap to imagine how you'd use it in everyday life vs. something like web3, most people aren't yet, and I don't think it's an absolute certainty that they will (or at the very least, how universally they will).
With all that ML stuff going on we can no longer trust our devices to guarantee authenticity of their behaviour. By that, I mean we can no longer be sure that the human voice produced by the speaker of our handheld computers is happening because a human somewhere else spoke to a microphone.

Unfortunately the move towards it is nothing new, we gradually lost text and images and now the remaining media is closing.

This will probably decimate online public forums completely and off-person communications will en up being P2P through trusted devices. Closed communities in WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack and Discord already replaced forums.

Maybe if infestation of closed communities with machines becomes a thing, maybe the real life gatherings will make a comeback?

I don't know but I used to mock Sci-Fi movies about portraying aliens as uncivilised that don't seem to have the means to have developed all that tech but I'm no longer sure. Maybe what will happen is, we will create a symbiotic life where machine will no longer be tools but partners and they will take care of us to reduce us to our basic instinct.
Which is why I pointed 10 years ahead, and not next 3 or 5 years. I have made similar comments before regarding low hanging fruits, and GANs, and then diffusion became a thing.
We all have this issue. I just turn off everything and get a book in my hands. I started reading some easy books like adventures or something like that. And then I just start searching for some psychology / psychology books, as I have great interest in them.

Wildberger's take (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=by0Gy1ZJ_hU ) is that rational trigonometry is well-suited to 'triangle geometry' (i.e. anywhere we might use Pythagoras); whilst angles are well-suited to uniform circular motion (although even there he prefers turns instead of radians ;) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnQXRdgN_7I ).

How a Nepo Baby Is Born
I don't think it's possible to have a language so perfect that nobody can write bad/weird code in it. There are always going to be cases of code that is technically permissible, but very unlikely to be intended, and warrant a "did you really mean to do this?" lint.

e.g. `unsigned < 0` is likely a mistake, but maybe comes from a macro/generic code that allows multiple types, or the zero is from some configurable constant. I don't see how flagging this is balkanizing anything.

If the compiler doesn't flag code smells, it's a missed opportunity to help users and catch mistakes early. OTOH if the compiler turns potentially-benign things and unidiomatic code into hard errors, then it's annoying during development and refactorings.

golang tried the no-warnings approach, and IMHO it's not working well. Sometimes it's too pedantic, but sometimes not strict enough. It sprouted `errcheck` and `go vet` to bring the warnings back.
True. Sometimes it seems some people read every CyberPunk story and considered it an instruction instead of something between a parody and a warning.
I ignore what standard the page follows but the code looks like it was generated or written by someone with little knowledge about CSS. Among other things, code is duplicated all over the place ; everything is globally centered, before every element being individually aligned to left.

This is what it would look like with proper "boring old" html/css written back in the days https://jsfiddle.net/dgtvjn5x/ (more readable and slightly lighter)

For the sake of completeness:

-it would require a more verbose doctype or none depending on when it was written ;

- the "style" element would also require a "type" attribute until some point in time ;

- "border: none" isn't required anymore, browsers have stopped adding border around images.

PS. this is just a comment about how html/css can still be easy and straightforward these days. I do not mean to undermine the fact that the owner did the right thing with regard to standing for and protecting the domain (and promoting eff :)).

https://www.languagetransfer.org/free-courses-1#french is pretty good for starting out.

Try and get out of Duolingo mode(law of diminishing returns!) and move to native audio(radio, podcasts, movies, songs) in your target language. Get used to being uncomfortable and not understanding anything at first. If you can make a game/habit out of this, you will make progress in due time(think a few years, not months/days).

Unfortunately we know now it wouldn't have helped much in practice. Take your GPS example: you can spoof GPS on Android, globally or per-app. Of the apps that are actually useful, many (most?) of the ones that want/need location data will attempt to detect GPS spoofing and deny you service until you turn it off.

And lest you think you can work around this by rooting your phone, an increasing number of actually useful apps refuse to run on rooted devices, "because security", and Google is actively helping this by making available an API that streamlines those checks.

Capability-based security is a good idea, but like all security technology, it only helps the owner of a device, and who is the owner of a device in any given context is a contested topic, with platforms, vendors, manufacturers and users all having a different opinion about it.
