Yes, it is for most people. A minority of people don't like it though for a variety of reasons, mostly taste. But for them (more expensive), alternatives are available.
You have to credit it with its achievements if you’re going to point out its faults.

A world where the Nazis won might have less inequality after they succeeded in killing everyone without blonde hair and blue eyes. But more likely they would have gone on to look like a brutal dictatorship with very few among the top class living lives remotely similar to what we know today. I doubt they would have had a Moores Law let alone chip manufacturing. We do know the Soviets bankrupted themselves and did have greater inequality than the capitalist system they were competing against while benefiting from its existence. China of course benefitting similarly to modernizing with the modern worlds free market thriving outside its borders. Heck, that tale is a victory story of capitalism over communism as the CCP very much had to capitulate and allow the market to function in increasing scope over time, reluctantly.

If we’re talking about which economic system would have greater inequality than we have to take the thought experiment out much farther than your initial quip. There certainly is inequality in the modern free market. It’s certainly far better and equitable than any system tried before or “on offer” in WWII. That war seeing the victor rebuilding the losers over several decades instead of rubbing sand in their wounds as every war saw in the last to that point. Modern day Japan and Germany.
PM working on Headless here. Masking bots is not the reason why the new Headless mode was created. The goal is to provide an headless browser that can be used in web tests. The original Headless is essentially a separate browser implemented in parallel to "proper" Chromium. That results in all sorts of subtle reproducibility problems for developers using Headless for their tests.
This is a balanced viewpoint, thank you for sharing! I probably have been burned a few too many times with legacy applications without good separation of concerns in the rendering layer to ever really prefer JSX to a strongly-separated templating language, but in the right hands they can definitely be well-written and -composed.

In a way JSX feels like GOTO statements.
I've had way more success than I probably should have using something I now call "empathy driven debugging". I almost never use a debugger, instead I try to imagine I'm the person who wrote this program, and imagine where I might introduce this issue, and almost every freaking time I find the craziest stuff very quickly.
I can highly recommend Signal and Power Integrity from Eric Bogatin.
Changes can be good and bad. Without regulation the incentives can hollow out desirable places of all but the richest occupants and tourists. Over time even the rich may leave if the help cannot afford to live or commute to serve them. The end game could be ghost towns or whole communities essentially becoming artificial, amusement parks.
If we're going to be quipping, then DNA can't built nuclear reactors, nor computers. Unless, of course, it is first decoded into a human scientist.

But I don't see the point here? We can't build things we don't know how to define.

Why is it so difficult for you to accept that others don't share your taste? I've never been into dancing but decided to take some classes with friends because that sounded fun, and realised that I truly don't like dancing.

It has nothing to do with rejection. This claim that "you poor thing, if you hadn't been rejected you'd see how good this is" sounds really condescending.
You could select a wavelength that doesn't penetrate the troposphere.

Nice article. The commonplace, contemporary understanding of intelligence is hyper reductive, even within the bounds of what we'd consider intellectualism. For instance, I know many people that are quite good at solving problems in a specific scientific domain but who lack almost all appreciation and knowledge of art and literature. It hasn't registered to them as important or requisite for being "intelligent".

In many cases our notion of intelligence is really just "knowledge that supports my income" which is a real shame. In spite of the existence of the internet, which you'd think would drive a neo-renaissance, where the average person takes a healthy interest in almost everything, no such renaissance spirit is to be found in most corners of contemporary life (personally, I think it's because the amount of information available and speed of access has actually proved too overwhelming, letting other incentives and structures (mass entertainment, social media) win our attention instead).
That is better, but it's still nowhere near `type Foo = Bar String | Baz Boolean`. It's also nowhere as clean to pattern match on.

People are paying $500 for bots used to buy the latest Nike/Adidas/... limited edition sneakers. Or videocards a few years ago (for crypto mining).

It's a whole industry.

Using a heatpump likely actually worsens CO2 impact, as most utilities providing the electricity don’t run on green energy.

E.g. you can either burn natural gas directly, or use electricity the Utility generated by burning natural gas. Or even Coal in many cases.

But that’s speaking more to the impact today. In the long run electrification across the board is required to reduce emissions.
What you are referring to is the soft problem of consciousness, the contents of consciousness. You are probably right that the contents of human consciousness, or qualia, can be approximated by our understanding and technology to a very high degree given enough time.

However, OP was referring to the hard problem of consciousness. The hard problem of consciousness is unsolvable IMHO by science, as it is entirely subjective; in fact, it is the fact of existence of subjective experience. The problem is this: even if you find some objective mechanism that generates consciousness, how would you make the explanatory leap from the objective mechanism to the subjective? Even if you say: "Oh, we flipped this switch and now this person is unconscious." - this is a description from the outside. You cannot claim by this that the person's consciousness has disappeared. Maybe not connected to the contents of the human mind anymore; but the gulf between objective and subjective can never be crossed by objective science.

If I had a dollar for every time someone claimed that the hard problem of consciousness isn't actually hard, I would be very rich.

Offering up some of our strength, ability, and comfort to help others who might be less fortunate or whose qualities lie elsewhere is what makes us human, and probably played a large part in getting us where were are today.

You might be part of a very miniscule group yourself, if this is really what you believe.

Our digital world will never be perfect, but allowing for everyone to at least be able to access and benefit from it is very much something we can and should do.

Right. But it will be massively used just for that.
You CAN expose your db, cache services as long as they are secured.

The bridge just pushes the can down the road and you have to secure it. It assumes the internal network is safer which is kind of a security sham to begin with.

In the long run it would make the individual service software more robust because security vulnerabilities would get attention and get fixed. Therefore benefitting more than just the bridge owner.
> Maybe not the wedding depending on the couple.

"Maybe" implying that there are weddings I shouldn't attend because I don't like dancing?

And I shouldn't go to live music or house parties because it's weird to do so if I don't like dancing?

Nahh, miss me with that. This is exactly what I mean. The only weird thing here is the idea that I shouldn't go out and have fun with friends because I don't like to dance. People are so weird about it, and treat it almost like a sacred act.
I don't want to sound like an extremist here: reasonable capital gains taxes are on net good.

But it's certainly not the case that people make the "exact same" investments with or without taxes, especially of course as taxes get higher. Money will shift out of investment to consumption as expected profits decrease, or indeed out of the tax regime to other areas or to black markets.

CSS has been mangled so many different ways, including the loathsome Tailwind, that I can't imagine what a newb web dev has to plough through these days. Some of us with longer memories were overjoyed to see browsers finally adopting standards after the erosion of Microsoft's reign but now it appears we're intent on destroying the value of what we waited 15 years for. Fer Kreissakes just write raw, unadulterated CSS and enjoy your freedom from the CSS hacks that were unavoidable back in the late 90s/early 2000s.

This is a terrible take. The more technology is integrated into society, the more we need to offer different avenues to access it. Otherwise we'll be excluding the differently-abled from many parts of society, and at some point we really should be able to put that behind us...

My point is that unique digital art won't be replaced even by a hypothetical perfect AI image generator.

When it comes to the digital art workforce - it is likely to be strongly affected.

> Others might fall into a gap of “nice skills, but not yet that offer a business advantage”. Furthermore, the lower entry barrier to create any art is likely to result in the average quality going down - not unlike that plastic made manufacturing cheaper, but also less durable.

And you are right that, sadly, in many kinds of digital art, it will be a race to the bottom.
Re: your ad.

This sounds like a solid product / startup idea to me. I worked on spambot detection in a previous job and it's not at all trivial to solve. Though we were specifically interested in detecting the abusive use of bots, not bots in general, so I focused simply on detecting unusual resource consumption rather than fingerprinting.

If you're trying to suggest qualia don't exist or don't have anything to do with consciousness, then sure you'll find some people who agree. But it's not a mainstream position.

And of course the entire point is that qualia are ineffable. That's part of the definition. It's the feature, not a bug. But if you want to deny that you have conscious sensation then go ahead. ;)

I think you are asking me a very emotionally charged and complex question, that I can't really answer over the internet.

But I'm going to try . . .

I stand by my original answer, having a son changed my perspective on boys/men for nearly everything. We are different. My view point on feminist policies changed because of my son, but also from my experiences in the real world outside of the university bubble. I was probably the most feminist in university, but softened heavily after my brother's suicide. Then working for a long time now, it's clear that 95% of women and men are just workers subject to whims of the rich in america.

As to your specific points about men and women, I have no idea. I suspect the normal curve and percentages in relation to ones culture matter a lot there. But
I do think there is bit of overthinking there. When a woman says she wants a sensitive man, the hidden part is she wants a sensitive and handsome man.
I think this is the same for both women and men, but I could be wrong.
When men say they want a "gamer"/"nerd"/"etc, I assume they also mean "x" and cute.

Also I suspect the vast majority people women and men do not understand themselves. I work with very very smart people, but its extremely common to see people not understand their own emotional reactions, traumas and desires.
I agree most standard human behavior is extremely selfish. If you understand this, its also clear why "asymmetrical" responses like what wpietri means are extraordinary dangerous to society.

IMO modern society's biggest failure is thinking we are better than our predecessors. Modern society lacks understanding or refuses to admit our animal natures and worst behaviors need strong cultural safeguards to be reigned in. I don't think we will ever be able to force people to be enlightened and you can't force empathy.

This would also allow browsers to act as direct database clients if I am interpreting this right?

You'd no longer need a backend just to middleman SQL requests, assuming you have proper RLS implemented.

Can this replace chromium embedded framework (CEF)?
Yeah I have been trying to use it to design neural nets, but it always gets the Tensor shapes wrong and it uses the incorrect layers and parameters.

I tried being brief thinking that it has a short “working memory” but that leads to definition ambiguity.

I tried being exhaustive with explanations about things like the data range, input shapes and reasons for parameters, and with enough explanation it will eventually come to the right conclusions - but it’s far more effort to exhaustively explain what I need then to just write the code - and even worse, during the explanation phases it gives me “working” code (I.E. code that executes) but is functionally wrong! So if I wasn’t so experienced I would likely have accepted one of these incorrect implementations and then been not sure why it doesn’t work…

When I say “wrong” I don’t really mean things like “this hyperparameter is non-optimal” - I mean things like “This network topology doesn’t make sense, and the whole thing is wired together wrong”

I think overall it’s a great tool though - one of my favourite hobbies now is to sit down before bed and spend an hour chatting with it on random subjects, asking it deep Domain questions on ancillary interests of mine, but I am cautious about what it produces knowing it gets code so wrong

I look forward to future versions that are improved!
You can do whatever you want man, it's 2023.

This can be applied the other way too: stop caring so much about people not wanting to dance. They're adults and can make their own decisions about what's fun for them, it's not your responsibility to force them to enjoy something.
Key considerations when using lasers to code fruit and vegetables (2017)
It does seem like a lot. But it's also important to consider how many miles were driven by the fleet and how many hams crashed into emergency vehicles over the same amount driven.

I'm not a Tesla apologist, I just can't make sense of raw numbers where we would naturally try to make a comparison.
But here we're talking about creating a new thing with a desired property that we can't even define, from scratch- not by speeding up its evolution in a thing that already has that property, like we did with animals and plants.

Not to mention: far as I can tell nobody has yet been able to breed, say, sharks, and completely transform them to be useful to humans, like cows or potatoes.
> Modern day emojis being part of unicode implies that they're somehow universally understood, and that it's fine to sprinkle them around in any kind of social context. Quite horrifying, really.

This just reads a bit like someone older ranting at the younger generation being glued to their smartphone all the time. Modern day emojis are part of our writing system. I use them all the time, from Slack to WhatsApp. They are universally understood, to a limit of course, but I see everybody else using them too and no "office drama" because Alice misunderstood the emoji Bob was using. They make it easier for me to express my emotions and they are as naturally as speaking. There's nothing extraordinarily horrifying really.
Here's my suggestions (I've written a few books).

- Use a tool like grammarly. Use tools to help you.

- Print out your book for editing. Don't edit in the same environment as creation.

- Read it out loud. Use a different part of your brain.
It is now, and that matters.
Hardly revolutionary, its still a fragile derailleur hanging off the frame exposed to the elements.

I'm amazed with hub gears and when Honda simply put the derailleur and freehub in the frame with their old downhill bike, that this is still the best solution on the mass market.
There's another caveat to this, which is that even in places where usage-based pricing may be best, doing too much of it may lose the advantages.

An example from my experience: Datadog. It makes sense that we pay for usage, after all things like logging and metrics scale in wildly different ways from product to product, and charging flat rates or per-user rates doesn't factor this in well enough. The problem is that for a feature-complete Datadog deployment, there may be 10-20 axes of pricing – how much log data, how many unique metrics, how much of your logs do you want to index, and so on.

The problem comes with cost estimation. Because there are so many axes, we can't just take our size and figure out a cost estimate, we have to model out different scenarios. Does a traffic spike for us equal a logging spike? or Metrics? How does it impact second order pricing like log indexing or archival? Even when you know exactly how much, e.g. logging you generate, it's still all approximated modelling, and many teams won't have the necessary input numbers at the beginning anyway.

Stripe's usage-based pricing works well because it's so direct – it's just X% of revenue. Datadog's is a pain because there are many factors, all of which are quite far removed from revenue.

I understand that at some level this is required. They're pricing for compute and storage, essentially, and a cloud provider offering those wouldn't price them at a flat rate or per-user rate, but it always felt much harder than it needed to be. I'd almost have rather paid more, but a known amount.

However,
