"My biggest issue with code review is that people rely on it and trust it too much."

That's a very good way to put it.
Code review is useful, but the expectation around it is often over reasonable.

I agree on your points regarding quality and knowledge sharing:
Code review is beneficial for both, but definitely not sufficient as the only or main tool.

"give them task with no guidance, let them figure it out and then tell them about everything they have done wrong"
It sounds blatant. But often not far from what's happening. :-)

> Responsible recyclers and refurbishers wipe the data from used devices before selling them on. In these cases, the data is wiped, but cannot be assigned to a new user, making them effectively worthless.

Wait. There is no way to assign a new owner to these machines? If I had an old M1 Macbook that I wanted to give to a relative I wouldn't be able to?
Curious, how long have you been running your service with them? A few months?.. years?
I find it difficult to manually write latex when all I need is to make small changes to a resume, so I built a Github workflow that allows me to make changes to a json file with my resumes data and automatically fill a latex template, then build to pdf with Github actions. This also is nice because there is always a permanent link to the most is to date version of my resume. You can see it or fork it here: https://github.com/lukew3/resume.
Yes, A/B tests are evaluated using T-Test or the Mann-Whitney U statistic. They have existed for a long time and never been classified as "AI". Although with that buzzword currently creating a gold rush, I have no doubt that every half-assed platform will be using that terminology going forward.
This is a common issue with solid rockets - they vibrate a lot. There are payloads that are suitable for, say, Falcon 9 that can't fly on the SLS because of the SRBs. Other fixes were employed to avoid the entire rocket to enter resonant vibration (IIRC, resonant frequency of the solid rocket was something around 12 Hz and with the fueled upper stage at 14 Hz, it was too close for NASA's comfort). A series of vibration dampers were added to the booster skirt and, something, I don't remember what, but probably another set of dampers, was added to the interstage.

Ares I was, to put it simply, a bad design. By the end of all this, NASA decided, correctly, to ditch the idea.
AI is not the reason why we are doomed. It's the people. It was always the people.
The difference between `any` and `unknown` is that `any` is an escape hatch from the type system. `any` can be used anywhere and will satisfy any type constraint. `any` is how the developer says to the type system "trust me, I know what I'm doing, don't worry about this particular value." Unknown, on the other hand, is for untyped code from an imported JS library, JSON data received from the network that may or may not match the API spec, etc. Code that does have a type, but that type needs to be confirmed at runtime and can be narrowed through type guards.
If it connects to my Siri (and saves the session so that I can go back and forth with it remembering the context) than yes.

I started learning Dvorak my first semester of college (many years ago). I sort of "regretted" it for a while, especially when I needed to write a paper before a deadline. But I pushed through and am glad for it.

Keep at it!
I not only run one of these in my office, but am also converting smaller business clients to this platform. It is able to do quite a few services on its own (in addition to the Microsoft AD structure I have been nursing along for over 30 years to make sure I grok most of my MS-based clients' needs).

The only caveat is it is not a good development platform for me with regards to Python - Their file structure, update process, etc. tends to break any development environments I set up. I still roll out a vm or dedicated box for dev work.

Overall, rather pleased with their products, simple, easy NAS with many possible services to hang on it. OpenVPN and either static IP or DDNS means I can access it from any Internet connection over IPSEC.

Worth looking at, in my opinion.

p.s. Also have one running Postfix/Dovecot for a small business client, works fairly well, although I do have to keep an eye on those services after power outages and updates, they tend to require "repairs" in Synology's vernacular.
You just need to reset/unlock it before you sell it, so for your scenario that's not an issue.
I'm fairly sure if the device is enrolled under an apple business account or whatever, then you'd be able to reclaim it. My org's apple business application is currently in limbo so I can't say for sure.
> But the question remains how you tell the difference from the outside. How will we know when an AI model has ideas? How do you know your doctor has ideas?

That's a problem for the future, not now. We're talking about something like ChatGPT, not some hypothetical strong AGI.

And what we have now spits out error-ridden nonsense that "sounds smart," and fantastic sci-fi covers were the people accidentally have 14 fingers or two legs and three feet.

People give him grief over it, but Stallman has always been very picky about how and what words are used when describing things related to computers. The words we use change how we think (and even determine what we can think)
Stuff like this drives me up the wall.

You police language and culture so nobody is talking about or joking about "bad stuff" and a bunch of jerks who already hate you take this effort as indication of obfuscating whatever bad behavior they suspect you of.

You let employees talk and joke freely and the same jerks will take it out of context and you'll be trying to explain someone's dank meme to some regulator who doesn't have a sense of humor.

It's a catch-22. There's no winning.

Yeah, that makes a big difference.

I also work at a place that has a social good (healthcare). The ability to materially help someone manage their disease on a daily basis is fulfilling. This is true in a way that helping people arbitrage crypto could never be. I've found the daily grind of tickets is different when you are helping people versus trying to finish UI that is designed to trick people into clicking on ads or whatnot.
At least future software engineers can be legitimately called priests and wizards, when they wield their prompts/prayers and witchcraft. And like with magic, you also never 100% know what you will get, just let the magic do its thing.
They tend to call themselves recyclers in the trade not resellers. They buy crates of these and play the probability game. They make more money on making frankenlaptops than actually stripping and recycling them. In fact most of them don't even recycle stuff themselves and subcontract that out periodically to other companies that actually do it.

They are getting pissy because Apple trashed their probability game.
'poetic': you have described it accurately. I fail to see what the hullabaloo is all about. Call me jaded.
I had an interesting interaction where I BSed it and it BSed me like it knew what it was talking about.

I typed: did you know that you can cross the cavern by just saying fly away

GPT Said: In Colossal Cave Adventure, "fly away" is indeed one of the possible commands to cross the cavern.

I felt like I was talking to a kid pretending to know more about the topic than they really do.

In fairness, I had given several correct alternatives before this so maybe it was the whole interaction that led it to the conclusion that "fly away" was a legitimate solution.
The meat of the article is this sentence:

Their is a hardware chip that will force you to prove ownership by logging into a ICloud account.

I "own" one of those. My previous employers never asked me for the laptop back. Even after I send them email about providing me with a fedex label. It was roughtly 2 years ago.

I thought that a good old format would take care of that, but no.

Current LLMs are trained on as much data that can be scraped from the public internet. It’s simply not possible to annotate that much data, even with crowdsourcing. It’s not even a matter of cost. You’d basically need to duplicate the amount of data on the internet. I don’t think you’re appreciating the scale of the data involved in training these models.
People have a lot of ideas, but I think there's one that trumps all. PKD was fucking cheap. I don't mean he was a spendthrift, I mean, that his rights were on sale to anyone with a nickel.

His net worth when he died was roughly half a million in today's money. He lived pretty broke for most of his life. He always needed cash.

Read Valis, it's semi-autobiographical. Or at the very least, it's self-reflective. The main character is a version of himself. It's a very interesting read because you do get a sense of not only the man himself, but what he thought of himself.

And after he died, his children essentially turned his intellectual property into a business.
I mean, he was a dragon-man...

I think I agree with you, and so I will not risk talking past each other.

Let me just take this spot to point out that from a landlord's perspective renting out two units at 100% is economically equivalent to renting out one unit at 200% while letting the other unit sits empty. However, it is strictly worse for society at large because of the artificial scarcity of a basic right.
Counter-service tipping is the most confusing to me. What service am I tipping for? And if I don’t tip, will my food be worse or take longer? Tipping before receiving any service or no service at all feels like bribing.
It’s standard now but not the law as lots of places do charge a fee. Id actually even say it isn’t standard, as a lot of court houses charge a processing fee when you use a card over cash (or did before the pandemic, haven’t been to one since)

No, there absolutely is.

If you wanted to transfer ownership:

1. Ideally, you'd reset your Mac through System Settings.

2. If you forgot to do that or didn't realize, you'd sign in to your iCloud account and remove the device, unlocking it for a new owner.

This is about situations where neither apply... which >90% of the time, is going to be theft.

A friend gave me an old iPhone in a similar state. Really annoying that it couldn't be wiped and reused. It had a broken screen, so I was just going to use it as a cheap ipod to play music in the background in my bathroom, but ended up just recycling it for scrap cause it couldn't be unlocked.

Edit: people are asking, the old iPhone 5 was left at a yoga center for over a year in the lost and found. nobody claimed it. nothing nefarious. my friend who works there gave it to me to see if i could get into it. nope. e-waste. no way to contact the original owner. ended up buying an iphone 6 with a broken screen off fb marketplace for $10... problem solved.

personally, i think they should either have some better mechanism of contacting the original owner or they should have a way to totally wipe the phone after some extended amount of time to get around the theft issue. if someone activates the device again with an icloud account, maybe the device could be restricted until apple contacts you or you provide proof of 'ownership' to the police or something.
Incorrect. The problem is that the devices are still locked to an iCloud account. Before selling it or giving it away you just need to log out.

No, if you properly reset the machine (which logs you out of iCloud, turns off find my Mac, etc), there’s no problem in giving the used machine to someone else.

It only fails if you don’t log the machine out. This is to deter theft, since a reset requires the user’s password. If it’s not been reset it’s a brick.
Your viewpoint is extremely contrived. A legitimate owner CAN reset the activation lock and resell a machine. A thief cannot. Simple as that.

They should turn stories from Love, Death, Robots animated anthology into longer episodes. There were some stories that could do with longer treatment or dive more into the universe. With streaming service, they could have variable length, most being hour long with a few making to movie length.
This seems like a great way to make a boring, unfocused presentation. Not bad for generating filler, or a presentation that could be done poorly by a college freshman without any speaking experience. The slide comments are more opinionated, and better but the slides themselves are bland.

Train reviewers to look critically at the big picture before they dive into details. That's going to hurt at first: almost finished code is going to be rejected and have to be reworked heavily or deleted entirely.

Both less and more than GPT, because humans can learn from limited input and also we have a lot of tricks for escaping our horribly limited context size. GPT probably has a larger context than humans, but it’s worse at everything else—to the degree that’s comparable.

I wouldn’t bet on that changing soon. I also wouldn’t be on it staying the same.

You haven't been paying attention then. In London, phone snatching (iPhones preferred) has been and remains an epidemic to the tune of tens of thousands a year - in a single city.

They might not be resold at full price, but even selling to a fence for parts is profitable if your acquisition cost is zero.
Amusingly, the more Web scale a technology is, like MongoDB or Redux, the more blog articles will have been written about it, making this technique work better. More hype directly translates into more robustness.

So yes, I think ChatGPT is already very web scale.

We could make them go around a track autonomously in 2007 [...]

This we could actually do 20 years earlier. [1]

A first culmination point was achieved in 1994, when their twin robot vehicles VaMP and VITA-2 drove more than 1,000 kilometres (620 mi) on a Paris multi-lane highway in standard heavy traffic at speeds up to 130 kilometres per hour (81 mph). They demonstrated autonomous driving in free lanes, convoy driving, automatic tracking of other vehicles, and lane changes left and right with autonomous passing of other cars.

I've been hearing about the latest craze around AI tools non-stop so I wanted to spend some time for myself trying to see how helpful these tools would be in producing something. So I set out to try and build a custom e-commerce store where the design is inspired by AI.

The above content doesn't dive too deep in any direction (AI tools or Shopify Hydrogen) and is somewhat high-level info. But will continue to tinker around some more with similar ideas that I have in mind (have AI to assist something -> then build it).
Yup. It's essentially like a very skillful writer with zero original thoughts--because where would those come from if the model tries to detect likely next words from the preceding string of words?
Yeah, fair enough, the idea makes some sense. But the fact that it’s an entire party trying to dismantle USPS, a party that has a lot of power, and not just one person, is precisely the very strong reason I wouldn’t be able to trust it or buy into a plan to add accounts and depository banking to the postal service. (I already get suspicious with articles that start by framing the USPS as an unprofitable business. They might indeed be “losing” money, but it’s a branch of our tax-funded government, and we don’t expect other branches to be profitable businesses. Does it even make sense to frame the police or FBI or firefighters as “unprofitable”? The narrative of the USPS deficit seems like part of the plan to privatize it...)

On top of that, I guess it’s very, very far from trivial to spin up such a service even though it’s true the USPS has a nationwide physical presence. It might be fair to say it’s easier than starting from scratch, maybe, but the USPS has entrenched practices and infrastructure that might not easily extend to physical and digital security required to handle high volume finances at all.

Does having electronic accounts cover everyone? We seem to have a rapidly growing homeless population in the US, and many homeless people have real difficulties holding on to cell phones & documents long term, anything that would allow them to authenticate and/or use an electronic account.

If electronic accounts were the solution, I could also imagine the primary infrastructure being a phone app (maybe not entirely dissimilar from China’s WeChat). In-person cash transactions for deposits and withdrawals could perhaps be mostly handled by ATMs?
That would defeat the purpose of the lock.
If you are certain that comparing the oldest runes to semitic glyphs won't show up a closer match than more recent runes do, what is wrong with comparing them, or talking about comparing them? The only possible objection is that you don't like what might come from it.

I guess but the important difference is that you can't do transfers with Klarna but you can with PayPal and Klarna does invoices while PayPal doesn't. Also of note is that you can't have a positive balance with Klarna (unless maybe you overpaid for something.) I guess you're right though, they're both proxies but provide one or more of the sub-services themselves in-house, just not the same sub-service.
