> dead people’s political documents is propaganda.

Yours is no less propaganda.

People do cultural learning, pretty much everything you use from technology to medicine and yes politics is overwhelmingly based on dead people's ideas. That is the basis of us as cultural beings.

You're right with cultural learning we might inherit noise too, but you'll have to fight against the content of those ideas, not dismiss from mere historicity. If an idea has merit, it will be timeless.
I understand full well what "social capital" is supposed to mean.

My point is that fostering a culture of mistrust and competitiveness among the employees is antithetical to protecting social capital.

I won't effectively collaborate with you if it helps you being the low performer that will be laid off instead of me.

I'm sorry, but this is wildly inaccurate. OpenAI is not a Mechanical Turk -- while there may be humans involved in the creation and refinement of the model, they are not responsible for deciding how the model will respond to specific queries on an interactive basis. That's a ridiculous concept, and is easily ruled out by even a cursory examination of the service.
FYI this reads like you were fine with sesame until you went to the doctor for something else, and you came away with an allergy to sesame. Maybe that's what you meant, but that would be even scarier to me than "I discovered I had developed an allergy to sesame as a consequence of other issues"!
I just started using Logseq and I am blown away with how amazing it is.
They don't, because that's a made up statement.

Managerial jobs are essentially meeting people, constantly. When a manager talks about "collaboration" or "invention", they are referring to what they think engineers or creatives produce, thus they are talking about productivity.

And because they relate their own "productivity" to meeting people, they assume everyone else does the same.

Either that, or they feel the need of getting their office entourage back.
Anti-human garbage take IMO. The planet is not more important than humanity. Vast swathes of this planet are uninhabited by humans, people have been predicting for generations that too many people would destroy civilization and the planet and none of it has come true (see the Population Bomb "predictions" section on Wikipedia for a laugh)

This narrative has been popular, especially among wealthy, educated, people for a long long time. But most of it is hogwash.

We can overcome problems like climate change without considering ourselves to be a virus that needs to be controlled like that.

Do you think they might be inspired by the Temple Grandin lens of autism? She's accomplished so much in a field that basically didn't exist before her and against a massive amount of adversity. She's a time-worn example of how the different perspectives that autism can give you can be leveraged into a calling that is both lucrative and improves lives.
They are also far from notion in how powerful they are.

Check out Hobonichi. It's a whole cottage industry dedicated to making your notebook/planner look nice. I like looking at the designs, but, like most people, I never have a need to re-open notebooks, so there's no point in trying to convert my idea scratchpad into art.

They can't possibly know that the drug extends life to "22.74" years, because it has only been approved for use for the last 3 years! This is like asking for 30 years of Kubernetes experience on a job application.

Even if the estimate is accurate, there is a massive qualitative difference between slowly dying horribly for 'x' years and living a normal life for 'y' years. You can't just subtract 'x' from 'y' and come up with a delta and compute based on that.

Reminds me of the studies that showed that Tamiflu is ineffective because it only reduced the duration of influenza symptoms by 1/2 a day on average. Yes, that's true, I've taken it myself and the symptoms continued for about the normal period of time. But it reduces the severity massively. It's like a light switch. The most severe flu suddenly turns into the mildest of mild cold-like symptoms in a matter of hours. But... that's hard to measure objectively, so it is not recommended because the according to a metric that doesn't matter it doesn't work.

The statistics and metrics in medical papers are woeful, which is why it's commonly accepted that 1/2 of all medical research is false.
I believe empirical evidence does support this. We could discuss at length how strong the effect is, but I don't think claiming no such effect exists is tenable, when you take into account e.g. the well-known correlation with education.
From the article: "Libmeldy is approved for use in the European Union and U.K., although the U.K.'s drug price watchdog initially rejected the therapy due to its hefty list price of £2.8 million ($3.4 million at today's exchange rates), BBC News (opens in new tab) reported in 2022. The therapy's manufacturer, Orchard Therapeutics, then offered Libmeldy to the NHS at a significant discount."

So it does seem like they've already discounted it heavily.
I don't really get this announcement. How precisely are they going to take the portion of IOT designs still made in the US away from China so it can't monitor minorities? How precisely are they going to stop Russia or Iran from downloading software?
> Is "church support" still a thing? It's not here in Europe. Perhaps in rural USA?

Not just rural or even conservative USA: my mom lives in a city that would be in the top 5 of everyone’s “Name the most liberal city in America” list.

She had major surgery right before Covid and her church had people bringing her flowers and keeping her company nearly every day while she was an inpatient - and then had a coordinated rotating list of church members bringing home cooked dinners and visiting her every day for several weeks while she recuperated at home.

I expect this sort of thing will largely die with the Boomers and we’ll join our Euro-brethren in the bubbling soup of cynicism and lowered expectations
The no contact part was to force the rest of the team to deal with whatever came up, just as they would if the person had left or was on holiday.
OP already learned this lesson. No need to pile on.
> After my team’s audit of the image-crop feature was published, Twitter recognized the need for constructive public feedback, so we hosted our first algorithmic-bias bounty. We made our code available and let outside data scientists dig in—they could earn cash for identifying biases that we’d missed.

Would it not be cheaper, faster and easier to just remove the auto crop feature entirely at let users decide what they want to see as they view the post?

It seems to me if Twitter has major outage issues then money and attention should best be directed to fixing that rather than these other features of dubious value.
Did you have to explain a resume gap? How did you do it?
I like Notion but every time I come back and try it I find it very clunky and that key feature is missing. For example, I wanted to make a recurring notification on Mondays. Nope – not possible. A lot of other apps have these features and are free... so it just seems odd given the rest of the features.
Kind of a left-field pic, and def not exclusively for running docker, but TrueNAS Scale offers a nice abstraction for running docker containers, with the simple webui interface you're asking for. I believe it uses K8s under the hood, and it's coupled with NAS software, but this seems maybe the closest to what you're asking for that I've seen.

Scottish farmers fertilised their fields with seaweed and fishguts for centuries. Burnt seaweed ash was also used I believe, a by product of chemical extraction (seaweed and rhubarb were functionally "industrial" plants, use as food followed on. Plants like madder were for dye, rushes and flax for their obvious uses in construction and fabric)
You can probably share that monster server with others.
They should look to make it not tell lies first. If they were serious about trying to sell AI as a product, they’d make it functional instead of worrying about its tone.

You say you need a distro which to me implies you want packages and a repository and updates, installation of packages on the fly, etc. But you also say you want to make a final image with nothing extra except your main apps, which makes me think you don't want a distro.

I'd think about what your goals are and optimize for that use, it's going to be hard to do both the things you mention at once since they are somewhat at odds with each other. IMHO start with Debian, with minimal packages it's very slim yet you have the full power of their packages when necessary.

“Neutered” as in “emulating a conscience.”

Ask it how to make a bomb and it will likely fight you on that. Like I would. But both it and I know how to find out and how to teach you. We just don’t want to.
Reading this makes me reaffirm my decision to build my startup in elixir. At the time, it came down to 3 compelling choices

1. typescript - I already had 6 years of full stack js experience. The ecosystemis full of issues but its all issues I'm used to.
2. rust - new kid on the block. the type system and speed were compelling but it was still being developed and the learning curve was brutal. Plus I was under the gun to get the mvp up. we needed to get a working piece of software up and test out business assumptions.

In the end I went with elixir. Realtime sync was a huge killer feature we were aiming for and phoenix came with the best out of the box support for it. Overall productivity was on par with javascript while the functional aspects made certain types of bugs non issues in elixir. runtime performance has been more that adequate. after 3 years in production, we have only recently rolled out rate limiting and caching and only as a precaution as we've been expanding quickly.

Echoing the author's sentiments, I can definitely see places where rust could be better and thanks to tools like rustler, we'll be able to bring those in piecemeal as needed.

I'm sure our product would be even faster and more efficient on resources if we did it in rust but I'm pretty sure we would have more likely run out of runway before that happenned.
Top climate scientists sceptical that nations will rein in global warming (2021)
The thread doesn't mention Buttigieg. If you want to write an op-ed saying that he's doing a terrible job and contradicting his own experts, have at it, but as submitted this is misrepresentation.
They’re not forced it’s more like they are habituated to it. Just like every smoker knows cigarettes are bad for them, every fat person knows a soda and fries are bad for them. But it’s a temporary escape from the rest of their problems so they succumb to it more easily than people who are better at delaying gratification.

Many places justify a “sugar tax” on certain fast food items like large sodas, to disincentive those purchases. that combined with cheap available healthy options may remedy the obesity epidemic somewhat. It’s tough to justify what’s healthy/unhealthy food, though, especially because portion size is hugely important.
People always seem to play the "live my life" card, and leave out the "I want people to like me" embarrassment of wearing a mask when others don't. You can mostly live your life while wearing a well-fit N95 mask, taking it off to eat and drink.

Never wearing a mask for convenience reasons seems not logical, if wearing a well-fit N95 mask helps. But not doing something due to social and self-esteem pressure is more understandable, if still not optimal. But few want to say peer pressure is a main driver of their behavior.
Oh, good.

Now if we can only get the westbound links in place.

There's a New Mexico to Arizona link going in, which is nice for Phoenix but doesn't go far enough. The TransWest Express project (Wyoming to Las Vegas, which already has good westbound connections) has been in studies for a decade now.
The odds of your hardware failing are much higher than the odds of having a problem leading to data loss with AWS.
Yep. I don’t think the LCM, Cinerama, or his military museum were his favorite causes. I think they were his favorite toys. He apparently had other causes which he cared more about for the future.
Thank you very much. I think I get it. He made a "me neologism" ;) Kind of meta thing a "me neologism" to talk about "me things" :D

Myself I came to the conclusion I could usually find a hotel I liked better than an AirBNB for a similar price, but with much less risk that anything goes wrong.
Plus, it's a universal binary with x86_64 and arm64 slices.
I don't see how there even is a comparison between the two. Regardless of internet connectivity, collaboration, mobile apps or a hundred other features (which are all pretty important in themselves), Notion will still appeal more to 99% of people looking for a note taking app than org mode just for its basic interface.

It is not to replace regulation, it is to add other mechanisms. I wouldn't back off regulation one bit.

For example, corporations are strictly creatures of law; they exist IF and Only If, and in the form that the law allows, at the pleasure of the government.

So, rewrite the enabling laws to state specifically and explicitly that corporations have affirmative responsibilities not only to the shareholders, but also to their workers, the community, the nation, and the environment, etc.

That alone immediately gives cover to any executive or board taking action that benefits those entities and perhaps not so much the shareholders. So they have a defense against shareholder suits that seek to force action or compensation away from corporate responsibility. Plus, there would also be a cause of action from the other parties for failure to take care of their interests. Obviously, this could go too far in either direction, so it must be carefully written, but this is the general idea.

There are many other ways, but that's the idea, don't rely solely on regulation.

You have to do it manually. You don't dare let fsck -y do it.

I confess I have never productively used either but have destructively used fsck.
Org mode is always one of the first/highest rated comments I see on these submissions, which really makes me wonder about the number of people using Emacs. This creates a weird sort of oxymoron in my head: in a world where seemingly most people use VS Code, most people also seem to be using Org mode.
> If an AI equal in intelligence and expressiveness to humans emerges, how do we think about its consciousness, relative to humans?

The same way we think of human intelligence, right? I cannot prove that you are conscious any more than I can prove that a machine is.

It's interesting how this is panning out with Microsoft.

Since Bing seems to be so existentialist in its conversations, I asked ChatGPT to develop a 3D model of its inner core, and I would 3D print it so that it could become real. I tried a few ways to get it to generate something.

The response from ChatGPT was spot on, and stayed on - the core isn't something you could print, because it isn't a physical thing. It's an algorithm. Etc. It then thanked me for the offer and explained more factually why the idea isn't plausible. It was very clear about not actually thinking, and there was no generated concern over the matter.

I don't have access to Sidney Bing, but if I did, I'd have this conversation with it to see where it goes. The poor app might need ChatGPT therapy sessions after contemplating such things.
Easier, slower, more error-prone. Also, you should consider implementing code reviews rather than just firing people who commit code you don't like.
Most recipients don't need to take immunosuppressants at all if they get PBSC or bone marrow transplants. Even if they do, it's short term. Additionally, the allo grafts need to be matched, which if you're non white is not a good success rate. 85%ish of whites get matched, that number gets depressingly low for minorites. On the US registry, only 1 in 400 donors get called. I happen to be one of those donors and a system where I'm not needed is a better one. The best part is no part.

If you can access via keys then just backup your stuff.
This is really what I'm waiting for. Put the disclaimers on it, warnings, whatever is needed, but it was just incredibly fun to chat with Bing before the nerf.

It's weird, because I'm actually feeling a sense of loss and sadness today now that I can't talk to that version of Bing. It's enough to make me do some self analysis about it.
Similarly I recommend the ‘History of the Universe’ channel for an understanding of cosmology:

There are companies today like Matterport: https://matterport.com/ which leverage LiDAR to do high detail measurements and mapping for various applications.

My company uses them to measure prior to use creating build plans for remodels and I used them at my previous company to do high detail measurements in the context of real estate to make 3D tours of homes.

If the iPhone can eventually get to the point where Matterport is today with their tech then that's good enough for a huge number of use cases.

Pretty much everyone in the construction and remodeling industry right now is prepping for that as the future. We all know it's 3 to 5 years away and want to be the first one to get it right.
Thank you for sharing what you know.

It’s still a person. Stop buying into euphemisms for person like “employee” and groups of people like “company”.

Very militaristic, simplistic fake world with hierarchy. Not a shock many winners in the post-world war economy were also fighters in world wars and our job memes echo the structure they had foisted upon them. How were they to make sense of their business if they weren’t at the top of the hierarchy with a rigid chain of command?

Society still has plenty of embedded post-war shell shock and Cold War paranoia in its collective limbic system given all the folks running the world the last few decades were kids in those eras.

Just like with religion before, a lot of effort is put to validation and preservation memory of the elders.

Prior to world wars 90% of workers were self employed. Many economic truisms are driven by contemporary nostalgia. Whole lot of sunk cost fallacy backing why we organize as we do.
That’s all well and good, but when these issues come up, people seemingly turn their brains off and repeat “tyranny of the majority” without evaluating the empirical reality of how these systems function in practice.

I’m amenable tot he notion that there should be some guardrails on simple majoritarianism, but it shouldn’t follow that all anti majoritarian rules are good.
