I'm using it as an extra colleague with whom I can talk about my problem, or like a very advanced rubber duck. This gets me to a solution far quicker than just researching on my own, even if its answers aren't immediately correct.

I'm using it to learn French. I'm using it for figuring out if my book idea makes sense. To tell me how Typescript works, or how it compares to languages I already know. I use it to compare products I'm interested in, to make educated guesses where comparable products are manufactured in.

It's not as smart as my colleagues, but much smarter than a rubber duck, and it has a mountain of data behind it.

It changes everything and brings amazing potential to the table.

There are even Puppeteer plugins that will do it for you. [^1]

The best detection I've come across so far (i.e. before this release) has just required I run headless Chrome in headed mode. Granted, I don't do a ton of scraping -- mostly just pulling data out of websites so that I can play with it in aggregate using more civilized tools.

> He may very well prove that you can make a social media service more profitable

I'm not sure that anyone should be looking at Twitter and thinking, "this is a good strategy for making things more profitable." Is Twitter making more money? They were already losing money before, and my understanding is that post-transition a bad situation has turned into a crisis.

What are the odds that Twitter ends up being seen as something to emulate in business and not as a cautionary tale? I mean, never say never, but the impression I've gotten about Twitter's financial prospects is not optimistic.
That’s all nice in theory. Name one tech company that has gone public and been consistently profitable in the last decade?

AirBnB hasn’t had a long stretch of profitability. But I will give it the benefit of the doubt that it can maintain profitability.
The entire concept of burnout and "mental health" is ill-defined. How do you know the difference between working on a hard problem or a burnout? I get exhausted after working all day on a hard problem. Also, are there any quantifiable tests you can perform to see if someone isn't just lying about a burnout?

> feelings of energy depletion or exhaustion

Feelings are subjective and what may feel like exhaustion to person X may be a piece of cake for person Y.

I am curious, why aren't we more critical about this mental health movement and at least demand that we have a real diagnosis/quantitative take on it? It's just so unsettlingly strange.
I once read an interesting article from a comic book writer arguing that villains are inherently more interesting than heroes - because villains plan, build, and create, and can do so for any of infinite motivations, whereas a hero typically just reacts to things a villain has done, and does so for basically the same reasons as any other hero.

I can't find the source or remember the author unfortunately..
You're either too young or you were living in the West during the USSR years. I think you should watch Adam Curtis' Hypernormalisation documentary. It equally applies to the USSR and today's Western world.

You can take an amplitude-vs-time representation of a signal and via a Fourier Transform instead represent the same information as a sum of weighted complex exponentials in the frequency domain. It works mathematically, sure- but does that mean that- physically, at the core of existence- every RF, acoustic, seismic, or financial data ripple is actually a bunch of sines and cosines which are getting summed together to create the real phenomena?
> I am no supporter of the USSR nor of planned economies in general, but at no point were rulers in the communist party of the Soviet Union informed by their scientists of the effects of increased emissions, and then decided to double down on fossil fuel,

What do you base this on? Greenhouse effect was scientifically established in the 1800s and evidence of CO2 induced global warming in the mid 1900s. The IPCC was set up in 1988. The Soviet Union collapsed in 1991.

> and engage in a mass disinformation campaign to keep increasing pollution at the cost of our climate. I’m sure they would have, but they’re government collapsed before they were able,

USSR may have have believed they would be a strategic winner in warming temperatures. At best they would not have been particularly inclined to sacrifice their energy and industrial development when their rivals were not.

> so, so far the climate crisis is a uniquely capitalist problem.

No it's not, even if you strangely ignore USSR's massive past contribution to atmospheric CO2. China emits more CO2 than all western countries combined, and plans to continue increasing output. You'll say China is capitalist to some degree, but its heavy industry, electricity generation, and fossil fuel industries (and more) are all under absolute control of the communist dictatorship.

The climate crisis is your average every day human problem, formally documented in feudal England (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_of_the_commons) but certainly the same condition existed pre-history.
This seems more like the disadvantages rust, with the disadvantages of C. What I really want is the footguns of C with the ergonomic modern veneer of Rust's nicer syntax, built-in types, control structures etc.

That's a fascinating philosophical presupposition you have there: That there is such a thing as a difference between the observable* behavior of a system and its real* behavior. I won't agree or disagree with you. Just pointing it out because it's really interesting to me.

*You used essentially those words ('observer', 'really'). I won't try to pin you down into a particular definition of them, but I'm guessing we at least approximately agree on what they mean.

You could make a similar but less controversial statement by substituting "low-fidelity observer" & "high-fidelity observer" for "observer" & "reality". I wonder if that's what you mean, or if you meant what you said?

Now that I’ve worked with Spring professionally I can bootstrap a spring web app like this with little effort. So I’m guessing this is to target those not familiar with or inclined to use spring.

Maybe this doesn't matter as much as I think it does, but a lot of languages have duplicate tooling because developers who make and work in a language want to write their tools in the same language.

As a fan of Eclipse at one time, I feel like the non-Java plugins always suffered because the developers didn't know or didn't want to work in Java.
ISPs are media companies. They do not want regular people publishing content or having a voice unless they can get their commission.

Certainly if we want to maintain current levels of biodiversity. Cats did not evolve in that environment so the usual checks and balances of evolution are not there. Feral cats don’t seem to be as much as an issue where I’m from, probably because of the abundant coyote population. Cats don’t last long outside with those around. Adding another apex predator to the mix might do more harm than help in New Zealand’s case. Better just keep Mr. Whiskers indoors.

That isn't a compromise, it's just delaying the inevitable. The Ukrainians can decide for themselves how much they're willing to sacrifice. As long as they're willing to fight we should give them whatever weapons they need. The more Russian soldiers they kill, the better it is for all NATO members. Bleed the Russian Empire to death.

I’ve heard many actors say this too.

And if you play D&D or various RPGs you might also discover that the “evil” characters have so much more potential for interesting storytelling.
One way to look at this is that there is no difference between possibility and reality. If there was, then the question would arise why only this one particular possibility is real, while the other possibilities aren’t. If there is a necessary reason for why this particular possibility is real, then that would mean that the other possibilities aren’t actually possible after all. If, on the other hand, there isn’t any such reason, then that would mean that the fact that this particular possibility happens to be real is fundamentally arbitrary.

Personally, I find it more plausible, in a parsimonious Occam’s razor sense, that everything that is logically possible actually exists, because the only other option is arbitrariness, the lack of any explanation even in theory.

Whether summing up path integrals makes sense, is however a different question.

Amazon review (review/feedback) is a way for Amazon store owners through the reviews platform to contact Amazon buyers who bought their products to make comprehensive reviews of the products to increase their product rankings. Generally speaking, these reviews are formed after a real transaction, which is in line with the rules of the Amazon platform.

However, when displaying new products, if there are too few reviews, many buyers are unwilling to place an order. The fewer users buy, the fewer true reviews, and many buyers dare to place an order, this forms an endless loop. Therefore, many sellers will raise many accounts for reviews to help new products pass this period.

The role of Amazon reviews
It can allow customers to understand product information more truthfully, and it can also allow sellers to better understand product defects and optimize them to improve user experience. How do Amazon reviews?
Tool: MuLogin anti-detect browser, third-party proxy IP.

MuLogin anti-detect browser official website: www.mulogin.com
MuLogin is an anti-detect browser that is suitable for cross-border e-commerce, advertisement marketing, and other online business.

1, Open the MuLogin client and create a browser profile, this means a separate browser environment, that is unique, and 100% isolated.
2, Prepare buyer account information
For example, if your store is on the Japan site, prepare the real Japanese buyer account information, including independent shipping addresses, payment ways, etc.
3, Pay attention to the time when you do the reviews
Take the Japanese account as an example. The daytime in Japan happens to be the night on our side, so our operating time must be based on the Japan time zone, so as to better simulate the Japanese environment.
4, Do not do a lot of reviews in a short period of time
The reviews should be gradual, sellers should pay attention to the buyers' accounts, then do the reviews, which should be real. It is easy to be banned when you rush to do reviews and increase the risk that stores be detected.

MuLogin supports 3 days free trial, you can directly contact the official website customer service after registration, and apply for a three-day free trial.
I concede that the subjective perception of consciousness is a thing, is a thing that I perceive, and that philosophy related to it is socially valuable work. I concede that there is no obviously correct choice of axioms for mathematics or logic. I concede that nothing is fully defined formally in that the formal definition will be of the conception of the concept and not of the thing which the concept might represent. I hold that the adequacy of a concept in representing something is an orthogonal concern to its formalization.

My claim is that while tools to determine if consciousness exists do not presently exist, it is possible that they are discovered, and applied, and that the question of the existence of consciousness is open. Note that for me existence is a fundamentally formal notion. I cannot defend this except on grounds of its anecdotal usefulness because it is akin to an axiom or ground truth.

The notion of consciousness I consider is with respect to its 'actual' existence[1]. Suppose I imagine a circle, and then a square, but believe I imagined at once a round square. That I can consider the notion of 'a round square' or may have had a direct perception of it does not require me to accept its existence. Likewise, I do not need to accept the existence of a unifying singular notion of what might be perceived as consciousnesses. This also does not necessitate I reject it. If consciousness cannot find an agreed upon definition, assertions regarding it lack semantic meaning and cannot be 'reasonably' (waves hands) assigned truth values. If an exact definition is determined with no logical contradictions, I defer to the physical sciences for determining its plausibility.

The notion of conscious hearts was more credible in the past. The idea was that before the role of the heart was understood, a large population could have been convinced that 'the heart is the seat of consciousness', and thus a large population believing they were experiencing something a particular way may have been followed by the falsification of the existence of such a thing. At the time, it was very plausible that it was considered impossible to ascertain whether or not there were thinking hearts. I concede that the notion is not presently credible; for my purposes it is sufficient that it was ever credible.

If you regard existence proofs as being extra-logical, it may not be the case we can find agreement since we will be effectively talking in different languages. Personally, I am very skeptical of the ability of the human mind to find truth informally, which is why I lean on formal notions heavily.

That's a really good question that I think is also too early to see. Certainly Twitter lost a lot of developer confidence, I think people's perception of the service has changed. But does that matter? I'm not sure.

A bunch of 3rd-party devs jumped ship, and it's tempting to say "they'll remember that" if Twitter tries to lure them back,but we don't know yet if that's true or not. A bunch of advertisers jumped ship, but they could come back. The cost is that users look at these decisions and trust the platform less.

But we don't know the cost of that cost, if that makes any sense. We don't know if this ends up sparking a death spiral or if everyone complains about the decisions and then forgets about it by the end of 2023.

It's absolutely incredible to me that there is even a question about this.

The Biden administration walked back the Trump policy of sanctioning anybody who did work on the NS2 pipeline. Russia was able to use this as an implied bargaining chip against German support for Ukraine.

Who benefits from blowing up a Russian pipeline in The Baltic Sea? Russia? The country that was planning on using this as leverage? Who could have just as easily simply turned the supply off?

The idea that anybody ever bought that is embarrassing.

Now Germany is also signaling that they aren't on board with the idea of economic sanctions against China: https://news.cgtn.com/news/2023-02-18/China-to-expand-mutual...

Germany is trying to avoid WW3 here, which I think is signaled by their initial reaction to the war, and now signaled again with their response to the idea of economic sanctions against China. In pursuit of that, they didn't want to support the war in Ukraine, for what I think should now be obvious reasons. The US was worried that they wouldn't be willing to risk their population freezing to death this winter, so we blew up the gas pipeline and took the option away from them.

It's a plausible theory, and it does at least go some way to explaining some of the oddities.

For example, why such a large distance between the breaks in the NS1 and NS2 pipelines? The detail about the Minerva Julie are suggestive.

How true is it? Or perhaps better, how likely is it that it's true? That I couldn't say. I'd tentatively say it's more likely than Hersh's story, but that's a low bar.
Thanks! What you point out, the spiritual dissatisfaction, is one of big challenges for consciousness explanation. How can we ground this magical thing in the seemingly mechanical. How can that be satisfying? It's a tough one. But I didnt think that it would become a pressing one too so quickly with all the new AIs coming up and forcing us to think seriously about this question. What I come away with us we are the universe waking up to reflect on itself through the consciousness, self-awareness, and purpose imbued within us.

Many of those options are cheap to buy but expensive to ship. One pi clone was $30 on Amazon but shipping was also $30.

Desktop thin clients/mini PCs and a 3rd party Arduino clone connected over USB for the GPIO are cheaper than most of these options and give you more performance.

I’ve used a ASUS Chromebox CN60 and an Inland clone from a micro center for a project. The CN60 cost me $28 a unit on eBay. Picked up a few of those for various projects. Skilled engineers might be able to tap into the gpio on the motherboard.

HP EliteDesk 800 G1 Desktop Mini PC was going for about $50 on eBay. Also have a few of those and support dual monitor.

I would go this route over RPi. I’ve sold all my RPI’s on eBay and will never go back. Don’t be fooled by the marketing Pi Foundation does. You don’t need their products.
