I don't know why anyone is surprised. Internet is censored in one form or other by almost all countries. And if censorship is hurting business, companies comply to the demands.

As for Wikipedia I know it's not a business, but the above logic of countries controlling access of content applies here. It's not the first time or first country censoring Wikipedia.

I honestly can't tell if this is satire or not. Catholics make up 23% of the US population. How can wearing rosary beads be non-conformist when Catholics are the single largest denomination in America?

An astonishing SIX Supreme Court justices are Catholic. Was there ever a time a countercultural group had that kind of representation in government? Were there ever six justices who were hippies, or beatniks, or hobos? If you sincerely believe that

> Trads are definitely the counter culture now.

may I invite you to name another counter culture that comprised a majority of the US Supreme Court?

The problem is that people conflate feeling aggrieved with being marginalized. The reality is that "trads" have plenty of representation and power, up to the governor or multiple states (like Desantis) and a former president. Self-identified trads may feel like they're exploited, or something. But the reality is they are a huge part of the population with ample political power.

There was a huge back-and-forth about comments by Yann LeCun that the OpenAI work was just a public-facing stunt and No Big Deal [1]. Suffice to say, there was some dissent about Yann's assessment (comparisons to "less space than a nomad, lame", etc.)

Semi-related, various comments from web-watchers [e.g., 2] about the possibility for these chatbots to replace google search (e.g., redirects to stack overflow could be answered by a code chatbot).

Agreed.

We'd do similar tricks but only between a small group who all knew what they'd signed up for. It definitely helped to make you more aware of people trying to get into your accounts. To the point where someone would have to add a long list of disclaimers on sending an innocent link to their holiday pictures if they expected you to view them. And there are still some people who can't get me to click any link they send me (fool me once, etc).

Even so to do it to unsuspecting people isn't nice at all and essentially a breach of trust, especially using a keylogger. Even today I'm not going to use someone else's device to do anything requiring a login so some of the paranoia lingers, but leave your device out of sight for long enough and it might as well be somebody else's.

The truth is that countercultures often had political bents to them. Recuperation as defined literally included denaturing the political content of something, preserving the artistic or aesthetic quality only.
Interesting point. I guess the question is: is power inherently related to culture? And if so, to what degree? If culture is the outline of the dominant group in a society, perhaps the counterculture are those who occupy and inhabit its shadow.
What you’re observing isn’t a lack of counter-culture, it’s a lack of monolithic culture, though. In different parts of the country, or even different parts of the same city, the dominant culture is different. Living a “glorified lifestyle,” as you put it, in NY of SF? Sure, no one bats an eye. In the rural south? Different story. On the other hand — white man with “radically traditional values“, whatever that means, in suburban SLC? You’ll fit right in. In the Castro? Sure, you might feel out of place.

Unlike the US of the 1950s, there is no apparent single pervasive monolithic culture — and thus there is no real “counterculture” that can exist in universal opposition to that dominant culture across the US.

But rest assured that to the people living lives incongruent with their communities — including perhaps any “trads” in SF, NYC, etc. — their lives will feel pretty countercultural.
> I believe in God.

I'm sure there are communities where stating this would be controversial, but the US public has never elected an openly atheist president. It's ridiculous to claim that believing in God is somehow countercultural.
The author uses a definition of "precision" that doesn't make a ton of sense for most applications; the differences between 0.5 and 1.0 and 16000001 and 16000001.5 are "the same" numerically, but most applications are more concerned with _relative_ error which is 16 million times smaller for the second pair.

Ultimately it's a data-dependent situation: VERY BAD if you're tracking money with floats (srsly, don't do that ffs) but harmless if you're tracking something like "detected particles" which already has an O(sqrt(N)) error bound.

We could create component system that doesn't diff per DOM node but per component. It would render components to strings and place them with innerHTML into slots (dom elements) exposed by their parents. On first render it could just splice strings.
Of course they have control over it, it’s literally their own platform. There’s no reason that Discord can’t benefit from the same optimizations that video games use. If a AAA title can figure out how to render 100000+ polygons UV wrapped with several 4K resolution textures in the span of 16 ms, then a $15B valued company can certainly figure out to display emojis and large images without turning your notebook into a DIY stovetop.

Remote work also means less competition for urban real estate, meaning people who want outlets for socializing, who want to network and go out for drinks, can do so easier!

If remote-first workers are able to stay at home, demand decreases. Prices drop. More early-career folk can actually afford to live in the city, including artists and not-developers, meaning more friendships and business relationships can bloom.

This means needing to substitute using a co-working space or local professional organizations for social time instead of the experience being automatically built into a job. Nonetheless, this is a useful sorting function so young professionals can select into the type of mentoring they want, instead of being forced into mentors-of-convenience.

I have this visa, I've been through this process back when it was called Extraordinary Talent.

To get the visa you must first get an endorsement from a nominated organisation who's fit to judge your field (academia or research, arts and culture, or digital technology). Tech Nation did the endorsements for digital technology.

Once you have the endorsement from Tech Nation, the actual visa application done by Home Office is rather simple and is just 'rubber stamping' back in your home country.
I'm not even sure that's what is happening to be honest, I'm just speculating as to how somehow could reason it away for themselves. I don't know what the line is for "too much inspiration" where it becomes stealing. I'll make sure to check that out though, appreciate it!
So, I work in tech and I may pattern-fit too much, but I feel some of it is due to PM culture in modern business and product development. In short, product teams in companies look for the best performing variant of products and once it determines it, it doubles down there. It only makes sense in terms of ROI for a business. In the grand scheme of things when whole industries do it, we as a society converge toward something, whatever category of product we're talking about (TV, suburbs, content algorithms, etc.).
Christ. I realize you're probably being facetious. But de-extincting species to consign them to industrial food production (or some other industrial extraction process) seems like one of the more plausible business models. That's grim.

Calling the VDOM pure overhead is a strong statement when there are patterns that are more difficult to express in Svelte because of how it manages views.

Once a view is created, it can't be processed by JS. It can't be stored in an array or an object. You can't count or individually wrap children. This makes it harder to create flexible API's [1].

The question is: are we willing to give up the expressivity of React for extra performance?

I am leaning towards "no", because I believe React's performance issues mainly come from its memoization-based reactivity model rather than the VDOM. When applying `.useMemo` in the right places I can create perfectly performant apps. However, this requires profiling and is often unintuitive.

No, what you experience is people who personally aren't pro-religion, often for reasons of personal experience. It's nothing like the brave people hosting home churches in China, or an even better example, the people telling their stories in the bible, where the entire culture/government and it's moral basis is against your religion.
"The leftist of the over-socialized type tries to get off his psychological leash and assert his autonomy by rebelling. But usually he is not strong enough to rebel against the most basic values of society. Generally speaking, the goals of today’s leftists are NOT in conflict with the accepted morality. On the contrary, the left takes an accepted moral principle, adopts it as its own, and then accuses mainstream society of violating that principle.” --Theodore J. Kaczynski

> The number of letters keeps increasing

Indeed, I now hear acquaintances on the right referring to them derisively as the 'alphabet mafia.' I wonder if maybe it's gotten meaningless when there are so many letters. Sometimes I see "+" used instead, after the first few letters. In that case, do the members of the groups that come after feel marginalized compared to the big ones that make up the first few letters?

And what about the people who self-identify as one of the groups but don't want to advertise it as their defining characteristic? What do they do? That's a hard one, I think there are quite a lot of people that are in that situation.

I suppose the holy grail will be if/when we just decide that such labels don't matter.

>>A dog can learn. A cat can learn. And they don't learn like a human would.

Yes, but they learn a LOT MORE like a human would vs these machine models. Cats & dogs share the same underlying structure, from the neuron/synapse/neurotransmitter system, up to the brainstem/cerebellum/midbrain/cerebrum architecture, as well as being inextricably integrated into a living body and sensory system, and growth pattern.

And, as you say, there are big differences in how we all learn. But those differences are utterly trivial compared to the differences between humans and ML.

I'm an ex-Facebook Fullstack developer with over 10 years professional experience, over 5 of those in the payments space. While I do prefer to work in the backend, my mission as a developer is to deliver value to the end customer, which is why I do frontend work too.

My most recent work has been 0-1 products in the startup space; I've built out Ansible's Beam, a crypto to fiat offramp, and Iris's Autopilot, a platform which lets customers benefit from the skills of better active traders.

At Facebook I was on the Ads Data Model Core team. The vast majority of ad definitions are created via copy, paste, & then edit. We had an internal migration of our data model. My biggest project at Facebook was to ensure that copying from the old world & pasting into the new one still worked. This project ensured we didn't lose billions of dollars of advertising revenue.
