Find me an example in the art market where a creator receives royalties without the involvement of more than one business partner. Be it a curator or dealer or PR agency or trademark office or other legal entities. With a smart contract, royalties are sent back to the creator, straight to a software wallet.

That removes friction on the ladder of steps required to climb for a seller to reach a buyer. Efficiency is beloved by the real economy. Especially the media and entertainment sector.

I'm not the one who decides on market moves. I'm just using open sourced tech tools to generate income. Someone else in Hollywood or Paris might use the same tools in an attempt to cut costs and reach global audiences/wallets.

Let's see what the business community comes up with. The beauty of it is that the underlying technology is openly accessible and freely usable. No patent, no registration fees, no distribution rights, 24/7 reliable on-chain transaction settlement... For real life businesses in this digital age, those are pain-points that could be addressed by something like an Ethereum Layer-2 blockchain.

I'm talking from the viewpoint of an entrepreneur that could be running a company in the real world. By business opportunity, I understood what are the key improvements from crypto that could help start/grow a business.

One last thing, Shopify.com is about to enable sellers on its platform to use crypto tools, concerning the Direct-To-Consumers type of businesses. Isn't that enough illustrations to show that there might hint of a business opportunity in the crypto economy?

I don’t need to admit anything. You can read into anything as disingenuously as you like, and go rant off into corners; but you’d get equally far yelling at a wall.

OP claimed that all of the hardware they tested (with an enumerated list of said hardware) worked as they expected. For you to take that as some guarantee that you should then have a perfect experience on a completely different (or even the exact same) piece of hardware is your issue. It’s an opinion/experience editorial, not a professional expert/authority on the subject.
People find it hard because no one knows what sentience is, how it emerges, and how to test whether a thing (including humans!) other than yourself has it.

It says it doesn't know about fictional terror attacks on the statue of liberty, and then it does point out one.

Also, turns out "The Statue of Liberty has not been attacked by terrorists" isn't even correct either: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Tom_explosion – you could argue a bit about the semantics of "terror attack" and whether it was the statue of liberty that was attacked, but it turns up on all the search results (I actually wanted to find other fictional accounts).
in the Toolformer paper, it seems what they are doing is :

* take a performant language model (copied from some other team e.g. GPT-J)

* show the machinery that it can learn new tokens using one or more tools from a provided set of tools ... e.g. WikiSearch tool

* demonstrate that the sequence of characters in the full API call content, has some effect.. e.g. no reply, useless content, or content that helps predict another token. Save that complete set of characters in the API call as an entry

* run a learning session with tool calls to APIs, improve the model for resolving known or new tokens (queries with answers)

* show the model that it can try new combinations itself (!)

* let the machinery try API calls itself to resolve tokens

* minimize loss functions for API results

comments - this is strikingly different than some RDF hard-wired data store.. it is using huge numbers of failed attempts to find results that work. The results that work are complete API calls as type string. It does not seem to care about "learning" the contents of the API calls, just that it is methodical about remembering API calls that work, and retrying those

I just tried getting ChatGPT to interact with a command prompt on my machine. It managed to:

1. Create a directory.

2. Put a text file in it.

3. Try to move the file into a nonexistent directory.

4. Based on the error message, create the target directory and do the move again.

5. Verify that the move was successful.

Then it stopped running commands and tried to have a conversation with me.

It's probably only a matter of time before someone tunes it to be HackGPT and points a thousand of them at the internet, so yeah, I guess it's time to start freaking out.

> There's no builtin speakers in the author's mac studio though, so I'll give them a pass for this one.

Don't all Macs come with a built-in speaker? I.e. the one that plays the start-up chime, and plays "system sounds" like emptying the trash.

On Mac notebooks and AIOs, this is one-and-the-same as the obvious external speaker array used as the default output device; but on desktop Macs (like the Mac Mini — don't know about the Mac Studio), it's a separate little speaker hidden somewhere inside the chassis. (It's like the old concept of a "PC speaker", but this one is hooked up to a DAC and routable as a regular audio device, rather than only being able to play tones from a PIT.)

> the entire mechanism was designed for security ...

I don't have the same definition of security (i've read the JEP). Unlike TypeScript, you can not type the template values.

> built-in template processors, STR and FMT, don't do boxing ...

but all the others user-defined template processors (think a logger) are second class citizens and will do boxing.

Efficient String interpolation is hard without macros, that's why it's a macro in Rust.

This JEP tries to solve a harder problem, user defined template processors but do not provide the tool to make them efficient and never will. Are you suggesting that there is a JEP about macros in the making ?

I think this review is either coming from a place of misunderstanding, or to help others not misunderstand what it is.

The VF2 board is a development board. The Raspberry Pi is "small computer".

Is a development board also a computer? Yes, but they are not for the same purpose.

This is a test fire, to get hardware to developers and get the hardware-software cycle started.
> I suspect the `Array.includes` implementation to be a choice by the devs. The check will only succeed if the type matches, so you have a choice between setting the right type on your array (`"matt"|"sofia"|"waqas"|"bryan"` if you want to check for `"bryan"`) or using the type error you receive as an indication your check makes no sense. If you have an immutable array of specifically `["matt","sofia"]`, why even check for `"bryan"`? It won't be there, unless you make a mistake!

That logic only applies to searching for a constant, and in that case it should go a step further and complain that you're using .includes at all. There's no reason to search for the constant "bryan" or the constant "matt".

The only time it makes sense to use .includes on this array is with a string of [semi-]unknown contents. And yet that's what gets blocked. The typing is wrong.
A little off topic but I do wish we had some more precise language for machine learning applications. When we say it "knows" something it seems to anthropomorphize it, as if it's conscious. As a start to replace "knows" maybe "infers" or "calculates"

Yes, in Europe utilities seem to be a factor also. The office is heated and air conditioned and has good internet. Your heat might be too expensive to turn on 24 hours a day, home AC is rare in most countries and several European countries have pretty flaky home internet or people use LTE. I have definitely heard people express that they would rather use their employer’s utilities than their own. The lower average salary but more expensive energy plays a big factor.
> pretending you know him already "whats his name again?", then save to your crm and next time you call and ask for him by name.

That's really annoying and sleezy and manipulative. How hard is to call and ask "Who's head of the IT department there"? Simple, and you don't have to go all sociopath-adjacent about it.
the beauty of open source is that you can use it without relying on the other for development, but both are enriched by cooperation and sharing.

If a Russian fork of a project reviews changes from an American fork and uses whatever they want but the reverse is not true, then the Russian fork gets ahead. So the incentives stack up for interdependence.

This is a somewhat misleading article, considering that it fails to mention that Hubble is only vulnerable right now because its orbit has decayed well below its typical orbit and a boosting mission is being worked on.

As for ground based telescopes, there's constant work being done on compensating for satellite streaks, with SpaceX seeming to be in good faith cooperation with the NSF on the matter.

Additionally, a lot of recent discourse on the matter I've come across seemed to be really blowing things out of proportion (eg a few days ago I came across an image on Reddit claiming to be of the satellite streaks when attempting to take a photograph, only for it to turn out to be specifically the frames where there was a streak stacked together, making it seem much worse than it was).

Usually telescopes are studying some narrow patch of sky and the satellites are still more than sparse enough for streaks to be unlikely and quickly passing through if they do happen to occur.

Does this board have virtualisation technology?
Solar panels aren't made of lithium, but they are made of a wide variety of other things that have to be mined (which, again, uses up space and has to be taken into consideration), and the batteries which will be necessary to make them a viable part of the total transition to renewables will require massive amounts of it--lithium mining is expected to double in the next few years, and renewables are a major driver of that.

Nuclear reactors use less copper overall than renewable energy sources. (https://help.leonardo-energy.org/hc/en-us/articles/360010919...) Uranium, by the way, is also recycleable--most fissile material can be reused, and the amount of waste produced is tiny.

And yes, the total amount of waste produced by nuclear energy is miniscule, and could fit in a much smaller amount of space than is taken up by solar panel waste, which is well over a quarter of a million metric tons. Both are small compared to, say, coal ash, but solar disposal does have significant costs and can and does produce significant waste.

And one last thing--you're hypersensitive and pathetic. I started this discussion agreeing with your main point and trying to observe something straightforwardly relevant and you've been having a tantrum in response the entire time. Log off.

This is a bit of a straw man.

Companies go out of business for a number of reasons including but not limited to -) The inability to compete with or defend against mega-corps such as Amazon, Google, Facebook etc..., -) Being poorly managed, -) Having a product that people don't want/need. It's actually quite rare that smaller companies go out of business competing with their peers.

At the end of the day - what matters more - the success and profits of private companies - or the health and happiness of humans? They're not always diametrically opposed - but they're often not conducive to one another.
Ah the good ol' days of cgi-bin and perl scripts on Apache.

When I first learned Apache I thought that all URIs served by a webserver needed to be the same name as the file that they pointed to. Then I learned (embarassingly) much later that in HTTP the URI name can be anything at all and the content that it pointed to didn't even need to be a static file, that it could be dynamic.
Bridges including "private" ones are trivially enumerated: https://github.com/scriptzteam/Tor-Bridges-Collector

I would not rely on bridges if you ever need to deny that you used Tor at a certain point in time though they may be useful for bypassing some censorship systems. A VPN could hide Tor use from your ISP but that obviously comes with a different set of risks (the VPN provider will know you are using Tor).
sorry, not sure why we would post a blog or write anything on this topic. It's just our practical experience based on trying to use julia. What I can say is that we were VERY impressed with DataFrames.jl and Pluto.jl the people on discourse were excellent. In fact the community was top notch but there were too many red flags for us. I think the Carbon people seem to be taking an interesting route and we will discuss our issues with Julia with them when we meet up. This could be a case where late moving advantage pays off. Sorry to have given you the impression we would write anything.

I haven’t checked their financial statements but I bet it breaks it down roughly and I would be surprised if their average customer spends more on automotive than the rest of the store. I bet it isn’t even close in the opposite direction. Maybe I’m wrong though! I am going based on their ads that dedicate very little space to automotive versus the rest.
The main issue that happens with both REST and GraphQL, is that people spend more time thinking of how to implement their thing, than what the API should be.

The complexity GraphQL adds _can_ be worth it for its ability to better represent a business domain via an API. If you don’t care how well your API represents your business domain, then likely your API is going to suck, and you might as well have a sucky REST api and avoid the complexities of GQL.
Are you saying the demonstrated results are all in sample? Because this is definitely not true for out of sample data. And the GP comment implies that there is in fact a validation/holdout set.
To me it does fill a big gap.

It’s a local columnar engine that I can use inside a Jupyter notebook. This lowers my cost of iteration tremendously.

Yes I can query data from Postgres and munge with Pandas.

But what if I need to iterate on a large set of parquet files (mine is 200gb on my local machine, Hive partitioned, over a billion records) and munge them with complex SQL with a high perf engine? And seamlessly join with other smaller local datasets (there are always smaller datasets that contain metadata) in CSV, Pandas and JSON format in the same SQL statement?

This is a surprisingly common use case in a lot of data science work and prior to DuckDB you could not do it easily, ergonomically or quickly with a single tool. The authors of DuckDB talked to lots of data scientists to learn their pain points and the final product shows that they really listened well.

You (collectively) have this wrong; C, C++, C#, Rust, Go, et al. have it right. As long as we're just stating our beliefs outright instead of justifying them, that is. (That's not a request to justify your opinion; I'm sure it's been argued to death already.)

> security experts quite simply vetoed adding string interpolation as it's just too dangerous

Laughable. In an alternate universe where it didn't already exist, this could have been a JEP for StringBuilder and they would have vetoed that too.

> As to `STR.` -- which you won't need to use most of the time

Except for when you're trying to... make a String? Which is what ~everybody who ever asked for string interpolation in Java wanted to do?

What year would you estimate it will be when, at the average Java job, I can expect that most of the library APIs available to me which were often invoked with the form `func(String.format(...))` will have similar APIs that behave as JEP 430 template processors? Maybe after it's been full release for 3 years? 2, optimistically? Because during those years, in order to use this thing at all, people will be using `STR."\{}"`

At the time that amzn started, they were absolutely a tech company, doing things with tech that nobody else was, in the retail realm.

I would absolutely agree that it doesn't make much sense to talk about the retail arm as a tech company any more, although it's not 100% clear cut since the company's apparent strong interest in aggressive automation may undercut that argument.

However, AWS appeared before the retail division even made a profit, and it continues to be the real revenue generator, and in this sense, regardless of the state of the retail division, it still seems fairly useful to categorize the company as a tech company.

I mean, that's all fine and good, but how does one have a descriptive uri, while also having it unchanged?

Wikipedia has descriptive URI's, presumably they change over time. I know some folks would prefer never breakage to anything else, but it seems like having a permanent URI with a UUID and a descriptive URI that could change over time, if, say, a building changes it's name:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willis_Tower

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sears_Tower

One now redirects.

I feel like, yea, it's cool if your URI's never change, but as someone building a wiki, it's really always seemed a problem without a right answer. I'm honestly asking because the only way I know how to build my site with this feature is to just save the previous uri every time the descriptive once changes.
