The reason people are so upset isn't necessarily because of the environmental impact, it's because the people who work on these trains have been warning things like this could happen for years, and when they tried to strike over it, the federal government stepped in and crushed them into submission. There was a car on that train that was on fire for at least 20 miles before the derailment. If I can get pulled over for having a busted tail light, a train full of toxic chemicals should get stopped for being on fire.

You've been frantically telling everyone to calm down in every thread about this story for some reason. People are upset because it's another case of the government completely failing to do their jobs of keeping regular people safe, and before you claim that people on reddit are saying crazy things again, this isn't reddit and no one is saying those things here.

I know it's a stretch, but that was also the premise of Star Trek TOS's 1968 (S02E24) episode "The Ultimate Computer" - M-5 goes rogue and our swashbuckling crew of the Enterprise saves the day. Also.... I saw Stealth in theaters and have not thought about it again until just now. Edit: Oh, and back in 2005 I was big into the band Incubus, and I really dug their song "Make a Move" on that soundtrack.
It's important to recognize what this product is and isn't. It's marketed as a "limited edition" set that includes a book, so the target audience is a collector/enthusiast and puts the price at a premium.

As an educational tool, the limited functionality makes it more focused than a generic oscilloscope and in a tighter form factor. Pairing the book with the hardware will make the experience smoother than a broader guide like "Welsh's Synthesizer Cookbook".

This isn't for everyone, but should be appealing to collectors or knob tweakers looking to learn this domain. It will most likely retain its value or appreciate over time, as well.

Before he was CEO he led the Chrome, ChromeOS/Chromebook, Google Drive projects.

Satya Nadella however has a Master's in Computer Science + an MBA comparatively.

How could you possibly know this? I'm from an Eastern European country that was under dictatorship (partially inspired by North Korea and PRC).

There's a deep culture of duplicity in such authoritarian regimes. You'd be a fool to say stuff that puts a bullseye on your head.

Saying that stuff is not working correctly and the future isn't bright is an implicit criticism of the authorities and I'm sure the very politically astute and smart Chinese citizens are super aware of this.

The main problems are immutability and inability perform I/O outside the IO monad. To address immutability you have Monads like Reader, Writer, State which can give you a similar experience that you would have with mutable data and/or global variables. For example with the state monad you can have code like:

runState do
value <- get
put counter+1

The problem comes when you also want to do IO with that state; if your code is in the IO monad it has no access to the State monad and can't call those methods. There are ways to work around that but monad transformers give you a StateT which can be applied to any base monad, including IO, giving you the capability of both.
Ok, let's look at the equivalency here since you seem intent on comparing porn access to gun access.

Let's drop all FFL requirements for firearm purchases and we'll just let people click a tick box on a website saying they're over 18. After that we'll deliver the firearm straight to there front door.

All that's being asked here is that we actually ENFORCE the 18 year old age limit for porn.

Also, many states have laws that require gun owners to store their guns properly etc. and a kid just grabbing an improperly stored gun is illegal, therefore punishable by law.

There is no repercussion for illegal porn access and no onus on the porn provider to stop children from accessing it.

The make up of the federal government changes greatly every two years. Our states probably have a similar turnover. This is why it's important to vote, not only in general elections, but also primary elections. Seats shouldn't be safe for incumbents who let this happen or anyone who takes huge donations from the billionaires or hedge funds you're talking about.

Edit: I mean: the makeup of our government may change greatly every two years - this is why it is important to vote!

It also has a two-channel signal generator and 3.5mm connectors built in, and you don't need to hook a laptop up to it to use it. You can probably get all of those things cheaper but I wouldn't count on them being reliable, nice to use, or good enough to plug into a synthesizer.

Then again, I've mostly been looking at vector network analyzers lately so ~$200 for electronic test equipment for professional use seems laughably cheap to me.

> "fundamentally broken" and yet I've been using them with little to no friction for pretty close to a decade now.

This might rather confirm my point, since engineers using a specific programming language quite often have a contorted picture of how code in other languages is written, as they become more and more acquainted with their main tool. If we compare Rust closures with those of ML languages, it becomes pretty clear how natural closures are in ML and tricky in Rust.

Not quite a sensation either to anybody who happened to use closures in a typical Rust code, which, apparently, happens to have quite a lot of generics and async!
The housing problem in SF is entirely due to lack of supply. There is a limited amount of land in SF, you can't just go and build more land and because of that it is very difficult to solve the supply problem. Disincentivizing vacancy is one method of increasing housing supply. If you don't want to rent your property you should sell it to someone who is.

The comment you replied to makes no mentions of timelines, and everything they said applies up to the point the first mover falls, which is clearly not the long term per your own argument.

The goal posts also aren't "search" they're "AI enhanced search", let's not muddy the waters by moving them. Google may certainly be dominating in search, but they are clearly trying to sprint from miles behind in the latter.

The company I work for has a postmortem process that asks for the 5 whys. I'm part of a group that "levels up" other team's postmortems and the 5 whys are always the most difficult.

5 Whys are used a lot of time to shift blame away from the team where the issue originated, or someone does the 5 whys dogmatically and ends in a non-actionable final why.

One of the things I teach is "5" is a suggestion, not a requirement. Trees are great. Each root node in the tree MUST be actionable. Asking people to do better next time isn't actionable. Blame isn't the goal of the document.
The writing is on the wall. Sundar hasn’t done anything but maintain the status quo at Google. That is a loss for google, particularly GCP didn’t gain any market share, couldn’t productize their self driving car platform effectively, the ad market is facing increased pressure from all governments. I see him replaced soon or some activist investor demanding some changes.
Karl Friston mentions a similar discovery in this interview: https://www.aliusresearch.org/uploads/9/1/6/0/91600416/frist...

“I first came up with a prototypical free energy principle when I was eight years old, in what I have previously called a “Gerald Durrell” moment (Friston, 2012). I was in the garden, during a gloriously hot 1960s British summer, preoccupied with the antics of some woodlice (small armadillo like bugs—see Figure 1) who were frantically scurrying around trying to find some shade.
After half an hour of observation and innocent (childlike) contemplation, I realized their “scurrying” had no purpose or intent: they were simply moving faster in the sun—and slower in the shade. The simplicity of this explanation—for what one could artfully call biotic self-organization—appealed to me then and appeals to me now. It is exactly the same principle that underwrites the ensemble density dynamics of the free energy principle—and all its corollaries.”

I wonder if the simplicity of his proposed wood lice model applies to the jumping bean larvae as well?

Good luck introspecting a given python object and ascertaining "this class only stores data". It's literally impossible given the dynamicism of python.

The consequences are exposing state that you don't necessarily want to expose, missed opportunities for optimization (lose fine-grained memory/performance tradeoff ability), imply something is serializable when it isn't, collisions with metaclasses/inheritance weirdness.

>Any alien race with technology to reach Sol will also have superior technology to defend themselves.

Actually I was surprised to find this isn't _strictly_ true, but it is likely.

One possibility is other solar systems (far away) with a different blend of materials that make certain advancements "easier". One hypothetical example is a far away solar system having high quantities of "exotic" stable super-heavy elements that make things like FTL possible.

In such a scenario we wouldn't discover it because it's not naturally occurring in our solar system, and we wouldn't stumble on it until we built a large enough particle accelerator. So another race could be _way_ ahead of us with respect to FTL, but way behind us in things like material science or computers. Imagine if their solar system was completely missing say... silicon.
I mean, they certainly are in the "AI integrated search" field, considering.... You know.... This entire post and discussion happening.

What's you point?

All you're doing is showing me there are restrictions are access to firearms and a plethora of enforcement/laws saying how younger kids can use them.

If your point is to say we don't need any restrictions on porn access you kinda failed.

Lastly, I don't think shooting a firearm for fun or hunting is at all equivalent to unrestricted access to porn that has proven to rewire young brains in a negative way.

> which makes it easy to write the business logic with composability over inheritance

One feature Rust is really missing is trait "inheritance" – you can't say "dispatch this trait implementation to this field" or anything like it. (The closest you can get is Deref, but that has its own quirks.)
Google obviously is facing headwinds as the open web, and thus web search, has been slowly dying over time. Because they are milking it the whole way down, they aren't very clear (to be generous) about what their go-forward strategy is (or if it exists).

But the bigger thing is that Satya Nadella also has the "it" factor - he has a way of communicating effectively. Even when Microsoft is fucking you over for the last few years, they come out smelling like roses. Sundar doesn't have that gravity and gets overshadowed in public by the Google Cloud guy.

The markets hate the perception of weakness and punish it. Microsoft is taking Bing, a joke product, and it's repackaging of Chrome and pushing it from a place of strength. No different than stitching a bunch of random shit together created Teams, which made Slack instantly irrelevant and was the equivalent of flipping the bird at Google. They're dangerous to Google because of that.
Here's Wikipedia's coverage of Operation Mockingbird. The story broke in 1974 and continues to be relevant.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Mockingbird

>Operation Mockingbird is an alleged large-scale program of the United States Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) that began in the early years of the Cold War and attempted to manipulate domestic American news media organizations for propaganda purposes. According to author Deborah Davis, Operation Mockingbird recruited leading American journalists into a propaganda network and influenced the operations of front groups. CIA support of front groups was exposed when an April 1967 Ramparts article reported that the National Student Association received funding from the CIA.[1] In 1975, Church Committee Congressional investigations revealed Agency connections with journalists and civic groups.
Leadership with actual visions is a rarity these days across the board. It's not just large companies who are getting their lunch eaten by startups left and right (cough Oracle), but also politics. Most people in high positions want the fame associated with the title (and for companies, the compensation), but not provide leadership beyond managing the status quo - and to make it worse, both shareholders and voters seem to prefer stability over progress.
Fair enough, these types of programs are opt-in for a reason. I definitely would consider it if the price is right.

For me, a personal vehicle is a depreciating asset that sits unused 98% of the time. I'd be better off with carshare if it existed in my city.

If the program also allowed me to use the battery as a home backup, I'd opt-in.
A100 has 1555 GB/sec of memory bandwidth. 50% more than Radeon 7900 XTX, but the AMD GPU costs 10x less.

nVidia’s top management did amazing job with their strategy. They have spent decades, and millions of dollars, developing and promoting CUDA. Now this motivates people to spend that amount of money on nVidia’s hardware.

I don’t believe the trend continues for ML inference, at least not for long. Unlike traditional HPC stuff like FEM or fluid dynamics, the GPU code of ML inference is not that complicated. The complexity is limited to the data being processed, these ML models.

It’s not terribly hard to port the inference to other hardware architecture or software stack, reusing the models. I think it’s only a matter of time until AI companies like OpenAI will start porting their code from CUDA to VulkanCompute or some other vendor-agnostic stack, to avoid buying or renting such $100k computers. Don’t get me wrong, these computers are awesome, just very expensive.

You have to assume they already know we are, at best, inherently dangerous, and at worst, a threat.

Anyone observing has detected the nearly 2,000 nuclear weapons tests we've conducted in the past. Those tests produce gamma rays that can be detected at cosmic distances, and the frequency of events would have been a curiosity.

So imagine yourself an alien observer. Over the course of decades, you watch flashes of gamma rays originate from one location in the galaxy. Naturally curious, you send a probe or scout to get a closer look.

From observable techno-signatures, you deduce there is an advanced civilization in a great war or a species crazy enough to explode powerful weapons on their home-world for shits & giggles.
