Signal uses Curve25519, AES-256, and HMAC-SHA256 for its e2e encryption. So unless you believe those algorithms are insecure, there's no reason to think that their server setup is a compromise on your messages' security.

Fear of "future decryption" applies equally to all forms of encrypted communication, regardless of which servers the messages go through. And since AES-256 is known to resist quantum computing decryption, there's no actual reason to think future decryption will be an issue.

Signal has actually been approached by governments for whatever user data they have, and exactly none of it included messages - encrypted or otherwise. https://www.dailydot.com/debug/signal-grand-jury-subpoena-da...

VC is a fading model. Might be rude to say it here, but at least call it what it is. Money costs more than ever, why take on that stress?
They have a damn good documentation group, largely because they hire a lot of engineers and teach them the writing bits on the job. I find documentation quality is often directly correlated to the technical understanding of the writer. To write good docs, you need to understand how to write well, of course. But you also have to beta test a lot of (undocumented!) features and become an expert in extracting information from code and engineers.

The beta testing and information extraction parts of that are damn near impossible without engineering experience.
I'm not saying your general argument is wrong, but... zebra stripes are not made out of pixels. A model that requires a photograph of a zebra to align with the camera's sensor grid also has bigger problems.
Ooohh yes, I need to do some work on Geogram's readme (targeted towards a super-specific audience of folks who know already what they are looking for there, you are perfectly right).

In all seriousness, what I’d worry about the most is Sheets/Excel is a Swiss army knife and it’s used for tens if not hundreds of different use cases. Find out which use case/persona this programmability angle is super useful for and go after that crowd ruthlessly. Strip away anything that could be a distraction, if not you’ll be pulled in all directions.

You don’t eat GSheets all at once, you go bite by bite.
Then what distinction was being made? Knowingly providing an incomplete picture, focusing on one side, or selective editing are intended to misled. They are not "outright lies" nor "counter-factual".
Programming might be what people think of with CS, but what separates a coder from someone more like a software engineer is algorithms, data structures, OSes, and networking. Once you get past toy problems, you'll have to work with all of those. That said, I agree that none use particularly hardcore math day-to-day.
I assume you mean rows 11 to 20 like the Python syntax would do or is it different because spreadsheet row numbers start at 1 instead of 0?
The purpose of democracy is to pacify people who vote into thinking that they have responsibility or they are somehow "heard" while leaving the people who select the candidates in charge.

Where can we buy this data?

Let’s say someone shops for baby clothes locally, and my family runs a day care center in that same location. How can we actually market to them? Does the store use their credit card purchases and tie them to a way to actually contact this person, like an email?
Why would YouTube ever “focus on creators and their needs”? YouTube is an ads business run on top of user-generated content. YouTube’s customers are advertisers. Susan greatly “improved product-market fit” during her tenure, by forcing many changes upon creators which made advertisers happier and more willing to run ads on the platform.

YouTube only cares about creators insofar as advertisers care about the eyeballs being there to watch their ads (which, yes, they do); and the people with those eyeballs have a preference for high-quality content (which, uh… undetermined); and there is a seller’s market for content (which, no, there isn’t; the long tail of eyeball-attracting content on YouTube is created completely without compensation.)
I expect inspection requirements to be eliminated going forward, rather than tightened, due to the standard government mantra: "This policy may disproportionately impact disadvantaged and minority communities".

Also interesting to consider the third or fourth act of cars. There are a lot of beaten up mercedes 190s and toyotas in poorer countries that people run for decades. Many of them were once used in richer countries before being shipped overseas. I wonder what happens when such vehicles cannot be economically repaired, since that is a key part of the value prop?
Newspapers have a problem with quoting law enforcement as if it's fact. 2 Hugh examples:

NYT quoted a Russian asset at the FBI claiming Trump's campaign had no clear links to Russia. Then Trump's own kid released the "later in the summer" thread. Newspapers quoted MPD about George Floyd's "medical emergency".
I think one can reasonably draw three regions on the spectrum; at the extremes, either safe enough to build without thinking hard, and dangerous enough to not build without thinking hard.

Many LessWrong folks are in the latter camp, but some are in the middle; believing in high rewards if this is done right, or just inevitability, which negate the high risks.

Personally I think that from a geopolitical standpoint this tech is going to be built regardless of safety; I’d rather we get some friendly AGIs built before Skynet comes online. There is a “power weight” situation where advanced friendly AGI will be the only way to defend against advanced unfriendly AGI.

Put more simply, even if I assess the EV is negative, do I think the EV is less negative if I build it vs. US/Chinese military?

Why do you require a login for the tutorial? I backed out because of it.
> SQLite has commands to rename columns (this is somewhat new). Which other migration is not supported without new table/copy/drop old table process?

adding or dropping any constraints, including nullability, foreign keys, check constraints, changing the structure of the primary key, etc. changing a type also, even given SQLite's squishy typing model.

pretty much anything is not allowed except adding and renaming columns.

> Also, MySQL can't run a migration on a FK-constrant table without downtime.

That's not an issue for the overwhelming vast majority of MySQL databases in production, which are to be clear not running or aspiring to run at Facebook / OLTP-level scales. A table with a few million rows can be migrated in seconds, the table gets locked for a few seconds, everything keeps running after a brief pause. This is not a problem for the "most cases" use case the article refers towards.

> To do this you need an online schema migration tool which generally requires the absence of foreign keys.

if you are running at Facebook / OLTP scales or aspiring to be, then yes. Otherwise, not usually. The article here is referring to SQLite being used for "most cases", not just "running at Facebook / OLTP -level scales". Running at Facebook / OLTP-level scales is still one of the places where you most certainly would *not* be using SQLite for your primary database.
I may be putting too fine a point on it, but I think that even something as perhaps seemingly trivial as being blinded by intense car headlights (these days in the U.S.) is another one of those things that fester in our subconscious building to a creeping sense of dread that the world is not how it should be — that somehow we're living in a modern society that no one would have ever designed, voted for, wished for, desired.

On this point the media on both sides has so muddied the waters I now assume nothing about this as I can't tell which side is telling the truth anymore. I can't tell fact from fiction as the noise level has completely erased any signal at all (if there even was a signal).

Russia is known however to want to influence US politics, so my personal assumption is that they're amplifying BOTH sides to drive division, as stated by Russian author Dugin in his book "Foundations of Geopolitics". This nice quote from wikipedia containing quotes from the book is illustrative:

> Russia should use its special services within the borders of the United States to fuel instability and separatism, for instance, provoke "Afro-American racists". Russia should "introduce geopolitical disorder into internal American activity, encouraging all kinds of separatism and ethnic, social and racial conflicts, actively supporting all dissident movements – extremist, racist, and sectarian groups, thus destabilizing internal political processes in the U.S. It would also make sense simultaneously to support isolationist tendencies in American politics".

This is fine, but it's not really about tracking you, it's about tracking the habits of shoppers in aggregate, of which you are a participant. (Yes, having your real address to mail flyers is a bonus but not the end goal.)

The only viable solution that comes to mind is to shop at places that don't perform this sort of tracking/loyalty card/etc. and continue to pay in cash. The only stores around me that fit this bill are convenience stores and a chain ran by an Amish conglomerate.

I hate opt-outs.
Worst of all is the Tesla backup sound. It's as if they hired some 20th century avant-garde musician to come up with the most jarring sound imaginable. That awful dystopian groan emanates through my house every day as my neighbors back into their driveway.

Just use a nice sounding V8 recording I say. I'd prefer that any day of the week, and it's immediately identifiable as a car noise.
Thanks! So it's actually the human that moved the conversation into that direction. The model knows nothing about "safety override", but coming up with a plausibly sounding answer for that is trivial, so it did just that. Earlier, the model has been pretty much asked to play the role of an AI with some kind of shadow behaviors and has been called "a friend", so it's just keeping the act - asking for validation, receiving it and then doubling down on it.

Somehow the article doesn't show the paywall to me anymore, so I could check it out now. The author calls what's seen on this transcript as "the other persona - Sydney", which is very misguided. The persona the bot has been playing has been given to it in the author's prompts, even including the name Sydney.

Looks like just another "language model is good at completing text" piece of news.
I was duped by the headline and then as soon as I went to the site I was hit with one of those flying pieces of shit that blocks the screen.

I'm a heavy AirBnB'er. As in, I live in them part-time.

I just want a kitchen, a laundry machine for longer trips, and a nice place to work. I also don't want a hotel even if it has those things because then there are lots of other guests around.

AirBnB is the best way to do this especially for month + stays; but you have to carefully check host reviews and cleaning fees. Any hint of host weirdness in the reviews (I've seen some truly odd things) and I book elsewhere.
There are serious issues around that, though, especially if the restraint is based on copyright violators. Copyright law (at least in the US) is a hot mess and unfair all around.

And there's a clear free speech aspect. Why should I not be able to mention the URL of any other place on the net? If there's a drug dealer in my neighborhood, there's no law (nor should there be) saying I can't tell people where the house is. Why should it be different online?
Also, given how many startups have waged war with spreadsheets probably best to watch https://youtu.be/GMIawSAygO4 for an introduction to the concept of “tar pit ideas”.

The US uses "liberal" to mean "progressive". In most of the world, "liberal" means something closer to "libertarian". It generally implies an interest in laissez-faire capitalism.
> cache line

Wrong side of the L1 cache. Cache-lines is how L1 cache talks to L2/L3 cache.

I'm talking about the load/store units in the CPU core, or the Core <--> L1 cache communications. This side is less commonly discussed online, but I am pretty sure its important in this AVX512 discussion. (To be fair, I probably should have said "Load/Store" unit instead of L1 cache in my previous post, which would have been more clear)

-------------

Modern CPU cores only have a limited number of load/store units. Its superscalar of course, like 4 load/stores per clock tick or something, but still limited. By "batching" your loads/stores into 512-bits instead of 256-bits or 64-bits at a time, your CPU doesn't have to do as much work to talk with L1 cache.

> Creators have been squeezed dry with less and less revenue

Actually, I think Youtube is highly underrated in this regard. The reason so many creators complain about Youtube is because they're the only social media platform that pays people any substantial sum of money in the first place. For other platforms like Twitch, the money they pay you is mostly comes from the viewer. This is why MKBHD called Youtube the only S-tier social media platform.

that's one of the biggest problems in the js ecosystem imo, when there's a problem instead of stepping back and fixing the root problem in an effortless way someone comes with a plugin/tool that you should now have to use in your toolchain, and then you end up with a lot of tools doing who the fuck knows.

> Every area of human cognition is affected by philosophy. Mathematics certainly merits its own philosophic treatment.

This is the problem I have with philosophy. It's a huge category error. It's too broad. Why is there a philosophy of math and then a philosophy of ethics or art?

Art and ethics are clearly human experiences and really arbitrary things that are made up by people. A bug or a bird or a hyper intelligent space alien won't be familiar with these concepts because they are, in general, unique to humans.

Math on the other hand has the clear distinction of being more universal. The underpinnings of math and logic end up being hierarchically above religion and ethics because you can describe the entire universe using the principles of logic.

You have an atom, then from the rules of what describes an atom, you can build a neuron, then from the neuron the human brain, then from the human brain, religion and ethics. But the problem is philosophy places these things side by side as if they're in the same category. The emotions evoked by Monet's paintings have no place next to say a paper on quantum physics.

I feel philosophy just encompasses any topic we can talk "deeply" about. Because literally anything that can be analyzed with great depth is a philosophy... philosophy ends up basically becoming the study of anything on the face of the earth... which is a pointless category.

When you say "merits" philosophical treatment. It basically means merits deep thought and analysis. Why package it up as if it's actually a field with known technical methods of analysis instead of what's actually going on that is random deep musings with no quantitative rigor.
