Well, like I said, the subject is extremely broad, so it is difficult to give concrete suggestions without knowing what specifically you’d like to get into. But I can give some potential options.

If you’d like to learn Haskell, I think https://www.cis.upenn.edu/~cis1940/spring13/ is still a pretty nice resource. It is quick and to the point, and it provides some exercises to work through. There are lots of things in the Haskell ecosystem that you could explore if you wanted to after getting a handle on the basics.

If you want to learn about programming languages and type systems, you could read Programming Languages: Application and Interpretation (https://cs.brown.edu/courses/cs173/2012/book/), which has a chapter on type systems. Alternatively, if you want a more thorough treatment of type systems, you could read Types and Programming Languages by Benjamin Pierce. However, both PLAI and TAPL are textbooks, and they are primarily intended to be used as supporting material in a university course with an instructor. I think PLAI is relatively accessible, but TAPL is more likely to be a challenge without some existing background in programming languages.
You should study pre-WW2 history, what happened when Hitler anschlussed Austria, Czechia, then invaded Poland and then turned west. Meanwhile the allied powers tried to close their eyes and were thinking that if they leave Hitler be there will be peace. It cost the world 6 years and a few million dead people to prove this idea wrong.

And if you think that the western world is not any better than Putin, well, I wish you a very happy life somewhere in Russia...

My only exposure is getting GPS and AIS data out of an OpenCPN computer and relayed to a tablet. Works great for that.
>ChatGPT is the same as that but more advanced, it just checks that the text looks nice, it doesn't care about the facts in the text

Humans don't care about the "facts in the text" either, if by "facts" we mean "real world truth".

They just match what's in the text against their _knowledge_ of which things are facts, which is similar to what ChatGPT does to produce text based of its own knowledge of facts (its training set).

If a person was given a text saying:

"God exists and his son has performed miracles in Galilea"

They'd fact-check it as true if their input (education, culture) contains that faith and they are a believer of it, regardless of whether that's an "objectively" true statement or not.
Absolutely not because printer patents will kill you.

There are a handful of companies that hold all the patents necessary to build a printer. If you try to build one from scratch "taking inspiration" from consumer ones you will be sued into oblivion
Russia wasn't compelled. It was Putin who felt it was his time to become "Putin the Great" and to "solve the Ukrainian issue"[0] by invading a sovereign country.

Can anything be done? I don't think we can do much except supplying weapons. Putin can not admit defeat, that's unthinkable for him. So he will send many young and old men to die, until the political situation changes, but I don't believe it can happen anytime soon.

As soon as I saw that part of page I thought, "oh shit." All I can think about these days is all the parts of my job that will be automated away by AI, until there's no longer a reason to employ me.
I don't use them myself but it depends entirely on what language(s) you're using and the rest of your CI flow. Do a quick search and use the one you're using locally. It will most likely use the same config.

But since you're solo I'd recommend discipline before pushing instead of adding another layer on your CI, unless the point is to learn of course then go ahead.
Before anyone does this on a work system, be aware that -- potentially even worse (in your employer's mind) than that you're providing remote arbitrary code execution to OpenAI -- is that you're definitely feeding data to OpenAI.

(Which OpenAI might not secure well enough, OpenAI might use for its own purposes, you leaking might violate contracts or regulations to which your employer is subject, etc.)
Russia started a war in Europe, after having interferied in UK brexit vote, and China is clearly supporting Russia. Call it propaganda if you want.
The production question is a little more subtle than that. Russia has been running down it's huge stocks of Soviet era artillery ammo and it's not producing enough to replace it. Plus it's not all in great condition as some of it is very old. So far Ukraine has been able to be far far more efficient than Russia, which has just been using a bombardment philosophy. Note that it's not just ammo but also barrels as they also get used up and need replacing. Russia can no longer maintain the kind of bombardment it was doing last summer. And they have nearly no capacity to replace the sophisticated guided missiles they've used up, whereas those are available to NATO, and we've seen those be a lot more effective than the dumb artillery.

NATO has large stocks of 155mm shells. But they can also buy them because it's become a standard outside of the non Russian influence world. South Korea has a huge production and stock that is under negotiation.

Numbers around mobilization are really iffy. I watched an opposition Russian politician yesterday saying no more than 200,000 had been drafted, so your number is the opposite direction to his. I bet even the Kremlin doesn't know the true number due to the way the regions were instructed to draft.
That's not a tooling problem ;)
Yeah everyone seemed to have atarted talking about living at head in general. My concerns about living at head for c++ is primarily compiler and static analysis support. I like my pipeline to build for clang and gcc and run unit tests in both clang tidy modernize, gcov, cppcheck asan etc.

By the time all of that is supported for a language release we are on the next one, and I value that pipelene more than the changes currently being made.

> Templates are a no go for me. I use them for blogs or static websites, but applications are easier to make and maintain with actual javascript.

Could you expand on this. You assert that "applications" are easier to maintain with JS, but blogs are not?

Are you defining "application" here as something with dynamic and interactive content?

Also, why is it easier to "make and maintain"? I'm not necessarily disagreeing, just curious as to why you believe this.
Sadly all I have is more anecdotes, but you can get those yourself by asking any non tech worker what they think of using any software.
This is terrible but next time I buy a printer it’ll probably just be the cheapest laser again since I barely get through a couple of reams of paper a decade.

I currently have a cheap Dell I bought for $80 years ago. I was able to put in a new off brand toner cartridge recently but the driver only barely works on a modern Mac and I expect it will stop working completely in a major version or two.
React/competitor performance that people use to compare frameworks is about rendering performance. E.g. React takes 100ms longer to rerender 10,000 elements (random numbers for the example). In these situations the actual real world difference will be negligible.

Site performance is much more API based, and that’s the same regardless of frontend. React has more library solutions to optimize the UX though, as it’s the most mature and popular.
They need to add support for co-brains - functions that are available for weightware brain to use. Ie if could and knew how to use wolfram alpha - it’d boost performance dramatically.
The Remote Viewing of Saddam Hussein (2018)
People already take Facebook memes and Youtube videos of godawful CGI spaceships and "reptoids" and other such nonsense seriously all the time. Deepfakes don't need to become widely feasible or even that good to be effective. Hell, deepfakes are all over Youtube now. US Presidents as shittalking gamers is a whole genre.

You're assuming most people are rational, skeptical, and won't trust anything that doesn't have a valid chain of evidence or proof of validity behind it. That's incorrect - most people believe that about themselves, but still tend to take anything they're shown at face value if it aligns with their preconceptions and there is no emotional or social risk in doing so.
"Period" most of the time or "full stop" if it gets confused.
I think I was misunderstood. My point is that not only do we need to consider the cases where the AI is smarter than us, but also the cases where it is dumber than we expect it.

An aligned agent will not fall into stupid errors, thus solving the lower bound of performance is a necessity for complete alignment.
ChatGPT Can Write Music
You can simply ask:

Or in other words, the price is high because there is consumer demand for printers that work, without advertising, without drm, without screwing you around to squeeze you for cash.

Surely DRM here, and allowing closed firmware, and such, are anti-Capitalist? Don't they prevent the market from optimising?
First of all, props to the author for making such a cool tool. However — is everyone cool with the amount of very personal data OpenAI is hoovering up? I mean this reminds me so much of Google and Facebook. Are we really going to ride this ride again?

There’s one on steam now. “Chucks challenge” is the sequel named after Chuck Somerville one of the authors. The old right ended up owned by a religious group so it’s a little bit of a miracle it came out.

> The current narrative, that it was a faction of the Ukraine, seems the most plausible to me. Russia had no incentive to blow it up either.

But why would a Ukrainian faction not publicly claim the biggest successful sabotage act against Russian infrastructure? Ukrainian side had no qualms about claiming the Crimea bridge sabotage, or drone strikes deep in Russian territory.
Conda is an abomination that will download 4Gig of unnecessary shite and carelessly dump it into your system, thereby ruining your existing configuration in the process.

Use it in a container or a VM unless you enjoy re-installing your system from scratch.

Or better still, don't use it al all and let it wither away: these kind of braindead projects need to be put down with extreme prejudice.
Looks good but I wouldn't run commands without reviewing them first. It would be better if this was integrated to a shell, just as other forms of completion.

The purpose of a good framework is to make developers productive, regardless of their level of expertise.

A junior dev isn't going to be build as fast or as clean as a more experienced dev, but a good framework promotes speed and provides guardrails to prevent mistakes.

To that end my experience with React -- same as the author's -- is that React does not have this characteristic and provides many ways to shoot yourself in the foot.
Ohh, right on. Definitely agree now that I've re-read it right. I was a little confused by the first sentence of your other post and thought you were putting forward a disagreement in the second sentence.
They have said they are no longer training ChatGPT on user data.
In case you're feeling alone. I detest hooks and I'm glad I was able to get out of front-end dev before they became wide-spread. I loved react at first with class components and its friendly lifecycle. It was designed to be understandable and self-documenting. It was a pleasure to write self-contained components. The move to function components, redux, and hooks stripped all of that away.

I'm glad others have found value in the evolution of react, but it always felt like watching a tragedy from the outside as the newest Abramov idea seeped through the ecosystem.
It's less of cheating and more of toner is not heavy enough to maintain the desired darkness (it's a passive toner system, the toner uses its own weight to print). It's honestly wasteful but unfortunately active toner systems costs more and is much heavier than the already-heavy passive toner systems.
Nothing has actually happened yet though aside from lots of meetings. As the latter link explicitly says, the library/archive exception provides very little in the way of specific additional rights to digital archives.
Also 25% - in our testing we found Whisper's medium.en model to give similar WERs to Whisper's large_v2 model. On some testsets though, especially Switchboard and AMI-IHM, Ursa achieves >40% lower relative WER compared to Whisper's medium.en model
As a Brit I think /s is occasionally useful. Sarcasm often depends on tone of voice, plus on the internet no one knows you're a dog, so I'll sometimes add it to things that could be misinterpreted.
I agree, and I'd like an anti-hooks person to explain their thoughts a bit more. My impression is that they believe useEffect inclines devs to cause side-effects in the component, quickly making the logic of a component difficult to follow- for example, a useEffect that sets a state that kicks off another useEffect that sets another state that kicks off another useEffect...

But this problem existed before hooks: old school React devs will remember the days of class-based components with humongous componentDidUpdate methods peppered with calls to this.setState(...) that did the same thing.

My own impression is that hooks offer better lifecycle controls overall, with the side effect (heh..) of handing devs an arsenal of footguns that will inevitably go off if they don't fully understand the hooks or where to use them or how React detects and triggers a re-render. So in a way I agree with the author of the original article here, but in the sense that React devs should probably not use hooks until they understand how re-renders happen and why to avoid that and only then should they be handed one footgun at a time.
It will help us getting to a place where we don't pump up stuff from below ground which ultimately ends up as CO2 in the atmosphere. If we stopped pumping oil out of the ground, we would have left other CO2 sources which are from cyclical sources, and which we can deal with other ways.
Seems like a lot of regulation will stand in the middle of their path, and that will be adopted only by some sectors (No way military ships will pick this) but is intriguing. Security will be a problem.

> It's just that the end result of a bunch of sensible design decisions is that initialising arrays of structs is clunky.

Yes, though at least the language gives you tools to make it more convenient. In the previous examples that would be constructors, and macros can help too (`println`, `vec` etc. exist for that reason).

I myself like to create tiny macros to shorten things like `UnicodeSegmentation::graphemes(s, true).count()` when I have to properly handle unicode. Sure I would prefer to have it be shorter from the start, though that wouldn't make it as obvious how expensive the operation is compared to just getting the size in bytes.

I've been mostly using React from ClojureScript, via reagent and re-frame. I've mostly avoided the hype of hooks, except in interop where they've been a pain. And I second the sentiment of Mike Thompson, who says [0]:

> Humans have a cognitive bias: "what is focal is presumed causal".

> Political leaders know this. They like presenting good news themselves because they like to be "seen" as causal of good stuff, but they'll get a press secretary to deliver bad news. Movie directors know how to use this when framing their protagonists within the story.

> Unfortunately, the React team have lost themselves in this bias. They keep trying to make the most focal part of the system (components) also be the causal part. Please stop doing that! It is a mistake. Events are what's causal - they embody the user's intent.

> Just to be clear, I love React. What an utterly brilliant idea and great execution. I'm deeply grateful because, wow!, did it change things. It is just that I preferred React when it was only trying to be the V part of MVC. Everything since has been downhill.

What I think is important in looking at the difference in treatment between “big tech” and telecom firms is the political expedience. Not to sound too much like a Mayhew acolyte, it can’t be denied that most legislators have their primary focus on reelection. It comes as a priority before efficacy of legislation.

To the voters, telecom companies have always been a priced in annoyance. Additionally, their services aren’t differentiated so although they’re annoying with pricing, the average voter doesn’t see them as quite so pervasive. You pay, you forget. They’re all mildly frustrating to deal with but un-noteworthy .

Big tech on the other hand is in your face. I don’t see my telecom but you can be rest assured I see Microsoft, Facebook, etc on a daily basis.

This means that a congressman fighting telecom is taking a stand against an amorphous blob that we forget about after our monthly bill. Conversely a congressman fighting big tech is a valiant warrior fighting greed and corruption.

I’m sure people here have different views due to a grasp of the nuances but the sad truth is that most of america isn’t all too aware. Big Tech just seems scarier.
