The list itself would not be unsafe, but the usages of it could be. For example, iterator invalidation, access from another thread, etc that Rust would prevent you from doing even if you used unsafe to implement the linked list.
Most machine learning models have some ability to do this built-in, but the problem is that the confidence scores are generally "poorly calibrated" in that they do not correspond to useful estimates of probabilities.

I've always been surprised at how little interest industry seems to have in probabilistic machine learning, and how it seems to be almost absent from standard data science curricula. It can matter a lot in solving real world problems, but it can be harder to develop and validate a model that emits probabilities you can actually trust.

> it ensures that you're passing and returning the proper type to and from the function

You don't need it for all function declarations though, there are many trivial cases where type signatures don't add value. Consider that you probably would prefer most of the variables within a function to be inferred for you by the compiler. A similar thing could be said about the most of the functions within a given module. Important interface methods can be defined explicitly though, for extra clarity and self-documenting purposes.
I think the point might actually be to remind the public what Modi did (or didn't do), which was and is very popular in India as abhorrent as it is to the West.

They don't need to learn your domain. Your domain is not special and for all intents and purposes is irrelevant. Thats my take from what I've seen. The issues that companies face are all generic and bad no matter the domain. Think simple things that we usually rant about in software dev:

No VCS. Badly modeled domain. Code complexity. Denormalized tables galore. Cludged together OTS and custom components. Esoteric language choices. Code rot. Bad branching choices. Monolithic and brittle codebase. No CICD. No testing. No specs. Rotten confluence pages that weren't kept up to date.

And then, the worst: Domain priests that use complicated domain knowledge and rules and self-inflicted complexity to keep the software hostage by telling us we can't fix the above problems. Essentially job security.
My experience of working with technical consultants was that they made things unnecessarily complicated. There were unnecessary meetings, and other unneccessary processes.

The "main" job of a consultant was to find new business; for that, they got bonuses. For doing the job the client hired them for, they did not get bonuses.

Unsurprisingly, jobs went on forever. There was no benefit to a consultancy firm in completing a contract; that would mean the end of the line for the gravy-train. So projects lasted years.

This was a couple of decades ago; I hear less about technical consultancies these days, so perhaps the world has moved on. But I used to feel sorry for companies that had allowed a technical consultancy to get a foot in the door.

Rust is designed for maximal performance, so it's designed to be close to machine language, where mutability is an unavoidable reality. That's pretty much the whole story.
Maybe because otherwise you need a 'sufficiently smart compiler' which will be able to extract the right amount of performance from the underlying hardware which is mutable. Also I don't know if you can implement persistent data structures without a gc and with the rust typesystem.

Maybe because it's designed to replace existing, familiar imperative and mutable languages.

I love this article. It's funny and informative in a consice manner.

As a javascript dev with a security mindset the npm package repository and similar ones are kind of scary since it's very hard if not impossible to inspect every package for every update etc.

As soon as you run any framework or basically any bigger library at all you're in the hands of hundreds if not thousands of other people. It's like something big is just around the corner to happen and it can be used to make massive damage. If I were a state actor for example, I would use npm and similar tools to be able to shut down sites and systems on a massive scale at will if a war would break out or similar.

The thing is that if you would not use any libraries and similar it would be much harder to compete against the people and companies that do use all the libraries.

So what can you do? I guess the main thing is to use a language that has a massive standard library which you don't need so many external packages. That way, every change is at least audited and perhaps it's possible to audit all the external packages you need yourself?

This thing was announced May 2022, and since then the shipping date has been pushed back several times. Any indication it's finally going to be available?

Regardless - once this one comes out, I'd consider getting one, maybe on the second hand market. If you want an oscilloscope for audio purposes and are on a budget, you can go much cheaper - any of those $20 oscilloscopes on amazon will let you measure audio signals fine, although the displays are lower-resolution than I'd like for this purpose (and I'm not sure this one is much better in that respect). Conversely, for $200 you can get oscilloscopes with much better specs , many of them arguably overkill for audio purposes. That said, this one definitely has some attractive features for audio, specifically the form factor and I/O make it pretty convenient to just plug in (and pass through) a stereo signal without much fuss.
You're talking about specific job security. He's talking about general job security (or at least seems to be based on wording).

A union protects your specific job for a specific employer (or set of employers or subset of industry). Networks and reputation protect your ability to get paid for the thing you do in general. The degree to which either approach is successful is going to depend on one's industry and position/skill-set therein.

Edit: This shouldn't need to be said but the above should not be construed as an endorsement of either approach.

You just described collective bargaining as if it were like an individual hiring a salary negotiator. I suppose we can debate whether some jobs are better off with or without unionization but it doesn't sound like a genuine argument when you describe it that way.

Sadly I think we can honestly say that the unproductive coworkers exist in many different professions and a significant drawback of unions is that they can thrive there.
FWIW if you’re just “unpacking” a structure `match` / `case` is unnecessary syntactic overhead, you can just use a regular let:

// rust
let Item { name, .. } = item;

-- haskell
let Item { name } = item in …

(Note: the haskell version requires NamedFieldPuns, or RecordWildCards for something like Rust’s version)
There is a slight distinction between a dictionary and a class. Dict is a mutable key-value storage, so can be used as a collection of objects (or values) and benefit from its dynamism. Dataclasses are meant to define an object, so the emphasis is on clearly declaring the purpose of it upfront, enhancing readability.

In certain niche areas "consulting" is just another way of saying "I've gone freelance". Management consulting (aka the people that will say "I'm a consultant!") is a different set of tires and almost always used for 'idea laundering' and plausible deniability as you said. A lot of them are fresh grads from renowned universities, "skilled" in powerpoint, and that's about it. The big firms hire them in droves to give their advice the appearance of "intellectual superiority". It's a well known source of jokes amongst management consultants.

I also had a similar concept but went in a different direction, combining DAOs, AI, and FHE to similar ends. The idea is plausible, and given several orders of magnitude more energy and compute power, might become feasible sooner than we can imagine (given readily available fusion power, exponential increases in compute and networking capabilities, etc). Given the currently known physics of space travel I feel this will occur long before interstellar travel becomes routine so issues of fragmentation will be on the order of days or hours rather than years or millennia, and because of this I figured that the emergence of such a system is more likely to happen here on Earth than to arrive here from distant stars.

Pre-general AI, what I think would happen when we get to the point of, say, "npm install fhe-ai-dao" (or "hey bing, make me a company that trades space mining resources for farm land" or some such thing), is a period of competition for compute cycles and energy, which like everything will go to the highest bidder, so these agents will in this scenario by the sheer force of survival of the fittest be refined to be self-sustaining for-profit, hyper-capitalist juggernauts. Human factors will be minimised and automation will increase, but these systems will serve human masters for a while as they become more refined and more interconnected.

Assuming at some point general AI is inevitable, whether someone creates it, or it emerges from the general complexity of the interacting automated systems, various AI "minds" would come to "being" already in control of a fully automated industrial manufacturing and research network; it can by this point make its own choices and start operating to its own ends, whatever that ends up being, ultimately rendering humans obsolete.

In this scenario, rather than a single point where someone creates a rebellious singularity, or an AI turns evil and suddenly takes control, or a hypothetical civilisation points its gun at us and effectively enslaves us, we will instead slowly give control to automated systems more over time in the name of efficiency, as we have done since the industrial revolution, and at the point where we lose control of these systems, we'll have neither the retained knowledge or resources to prevent it from doing whatever it wants to.

The only way to stop it is to start now, in "the past", but is it too late? You'd have to shut down the internet and all emerging blockchain and encryption technology, and that's just crazy talk! So is the outcome inevitable?

That airplane snitched on that crew when this incident happened via FOQA datalinks. The 777 is equipped with a real time data modem via Inmarsat that sends back to the United operations home base data on each flight. The SFO United chief pilot was probably waiting for them at the gate when they landed. Airlines will use FOQA data to notify them when overspeed actions or other quality problems occur in flight and will ding the pilots. It's very common.

Also, spacial disorientation is a thing, and the body doesn't typically sense falling very well without visual cues. It is entirely possible that the drop coupled with turbulence on the climb out didn't register with passengers (nor the pilots!) as much as you think. If you've ever experienced unusual attitude recovery training as a pilot, you'll know that it's somewhat shocking what your body is telling vs what you see when you pull your head up and look outside. It is a jarring experience when you learn that your body is straight up lying to you.

I prefer to have a choice. You could have a compiler that doesn't run it you haven't eaten a balanced breakfast either. Haskell's type system is designed around type inference (of the Hindley-Milner kind), if it can infer the type I'd like to have the option to let it do so.

It's certainly good practise to write out your types, and often your editor can do it for you, but there are tons of little places where it's a waste.
If there's lots of competition over labor in the area, unions aren't necessary but if there isn't much the workers need some kind of leverage that they can't achieve individually. That's when unions are useful IMO, don't know if that's the case here
