Am losing count of all these efforts to rescue Python's performance - they all seem to amount to the same thing: it's not very hard to achieve this if you throw out fundamental aspects that make Python what it is. The premise is always that syntax is the barrier, and that people struggle so much to learn a new syntax that this is what keeps them using Python even though its performance is abysmal. But what if this isn't the right assumption? What if it's not the syntax but the ecosystem - and an ecosystem at that which highly depends on all the dynamic features to achieve what it does. Further than that, what about the assumption that people lacking confidence such that they blocked by learning another syntax are actually up for the challenge of understanding all the constraints and limitations of something that is something like but not quite real Python? These are exactly the people that you would expect to struggle with it.

> If those assets are in your hold to maturity portfolio, they are still worth $100m.

They are still worth $100m at maturity. $100m in ten years is (usually) worth less than $100m now. Do you really want to pretend that a ten year bond you purchased when inflation and the interest rate were near zero, is worth the same when inflation and the interest rate go up to say 10%? What about inflation of 100%? In nominal terms you’ll get back your capital, but in real terms you will get back only one thousandth.

To correctly value them now you need to calculate the NPV.
In general, or specifically in the same niche as Python?

Python has several disjoint domains where it's used. So, for example, when it comes to statistics, then J, R or Julia would all be better than Python. Not ideal, but still a lot better.

When it comes to infrastructure and ops, then Erlang would've been a lot better. Still not ideal because of how existing implementation deals with deployment (too complicated), but that's not a feature of the language, and could be worked on in the same way how OP wants to work on Python compiler.

When it comes to Web... well, I'm not a specialist... and I find everything about Web revolting, so it's hard for me to think about alternatives. On the other hand, there's rarely a language that doesn't come with a Web framework / some tools that allow it to be used to make Web applications. So, just, basically, throw a dart, and wherever it lands it's going to be better than Python with a very high probability.

Python is also used to teach intro to computer science. And there's a lot of problems with this idea. Firstly, I don't believe that intro to CS should be taught by way of learning to program. It should give an overview of what CS is about, give some foundation, basic concepts from important fields... just like intro to math does, for example. But if we still have to have intro to CS the way we do today, then Scheme would be a lot better for this. Assembly is also a good pick, but for a different reason.

Now, to address the "in general" part: I don't believe that languages like Python should be used universally in different domains. What I believe we need is a language like OMeta, which we specialize for the domains we want to program in, so that we can keep language and compiler mechanics separately from syntax of specific domains. Ironically, this was even obvious at the time of ALGOL design, but nobody waited for it to be implemented and went with the quick-and-dirty solution instead.
And another question is how do we know those wallets were funded with fees? We need to trust the accuracy of the proof of assets versus liabilities.

An interesting quirk of TCE is that it's a "dense non-aqueous phase liquid" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dense_non-aqueous_phase_liquid), which means that it sinks in water generally and groundwater specifically, making it hard to remediate.

I might argue that defining people as “bad” is part of the problem. There are plenty of bad actions that politicians have taken. There are plenty of well-meaning but ill-considered things that many, many people do. But once people become “bad”, you get over-the-top cancel culture, a failure of people with different ideas to communicate or engage with each other, failures to acknowledge history as being complex, and a whole host of other problems.

> And, legally, if you mark bonds as HTM, you are not allowed to hedge against their interest rate risk. Basically, the regulations say that if you're hedging against interest rate risk, you don't really intend to hold to maturity, so you need to put them in the "Available for Sale" category.

This seems like an important point that I haven’t seen mentioned elsewhere. Lots of folks have been like “these people are morons they didn’t hedge their crappy bonds.” Can you write more about this?
A while back someone posted this comparison of a scene across a few services and Blu-ray.

For a more recent example, I found the desert/spice scenes in Dune to be unwatchable on HBO Max but very pleasant in my subsequent theater visit and later on the 4K disc. In my experience Netflix is the worst offender of the major streaming platforms, and iTunes/Apple TV+ can approach some Blu-rays (though there’s no trick here: they send more data down the pipe).

It seems blatantly wrong to me that anything other than traditional or old style typography would use lower case numbers.

AFAIK, Europe uses symbols because you have to be able to detect them when you’re driving past at speed in all kinds of weather.

That also is the reason why, even today, the train on traffic signs is a steam train; it makes it easier to distinguish it from a truck.

I also would be curious when, if ever, the USA was “very monolingual”. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4092008/:

“At the time of independence, non-English European immigrants made up one quarter of the population and in Pennsylvania two-fifths of the population spoke German. In addition, an unknown but presumably significant share of the new nation's inhabitants spoke an American Indian or African language, suggesting that perhaps a third or more of all Americans spoke a language other than English. With the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 (which doubled the size of the country), the Treaty of 1818 with Britain (which added the Oregon Country), the Adams-Onís Treaty of 1819 with Spain (which gave Florida to the U.S.), and the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848 (which acquired nearly half of Mexico), tens of thousands of French and Spanish speakers along with many more slaves and the diverse indigenous peoples of those vast territories were added to the linguistic mix.”

I don't know why people act like hallucinations and toxicity are these unsolvable problems. Both of them can be solved using data set curation and annotation, and model support for "toxicity" and "accuracy" annotations on token sequences ("style" would be a good one too). Then the model would have access to conditional probabilities given a toxicity/accuracy score, and generations could be guided to low toxicity/high accuracy generations.

The cost of annotating data sets for these LLMs will be significant, but necessary.
ChatGPT: Using the Right Tool for the Right Job
I think the thing that makes the recent layoffs so controversial is their context.

Layoffs on this scale are understandable, maybe even justifiable, in the case of a 2008 style market crash.

Layoffs on this scale do not feel understandable or justifiable given that many of the companies are extremely profitable, were hiring during, and have continued to hire afterwards. Add to that the prevalence of stock buybacks and the sheer scale of recent hiring and the question becomes why should the employees be the ones to feel the consequence of this behaviour?

The often billionaire CEO tearing up over how hard it was for him to fire thousands of people but "is using it as an opportunity to take responsibility for his mistakes" is simply the cherry on the cake.

It's the only way to keep society working. Most of the money that exists today (over 90%) is actually bank IOUs kept in their database and is what people see when they log on into their accounts.

Without a fractional reserve system, the liquidity that drives all economic activity grinds to a halt as everyone fights over the few remaining real dollars rather than managing their deployed capital.

Banks basically act to multiply the amount of money in the world today by creating promises about the future that act as a bridge that moves money from the future into the present. That money then flows into restaurants, dog walkers, software engineers, etc... Inflation is kept in check b/c the promises force the money to be paid back to the bank via monthly loan repayments.

Banks that only hold short term reserves or cash equivalents like Brex don't act as this multiplier. Going forward it's likely small banks will move towards this model as only the big banks that are too big to fail (b/c they are necessary as multipliers) can afford to take on the risk of longer term investments or creating loans.
> it just boils down to saying that it is fine to do unfair things to get results you want

A more responsible take:

We have to acknowledge that there are tradeoffs and that reasonable stakeholders with accountability should apply relevant standards to certain contexts. Again, this is possible in-the-box and post-box without having to manipulate or funge data (not to diminish the importance of data processsing).

Just because satisfying everyone is impossible doesn't mean we can't make things better. And knowing what these tradeoffs are can allow for more nuanced conversations.

> "Impossibility of fairness" is the main argument for discrimination against Asians

This is just a ridiculous statement. Main argument from whom? Discrimination in what contexts?

> I think the parent poster understood the argument correctly.

I just expanded that it is more than just data manipulation but sure.
There is no real distinction between those two phrases here, because the person using those phrases isn't ultimately in control.
>rather get monthly amounts via a trust. That way, downside is limited.

Unless the trustee is a scammer, or worse, one of several adult children who don't agree on how finances should be managed.
Sure they can. You cycle it through very short term treasuries - weekly buys of 4 week t-bills if you really want to be conservative about your cash availability. And if even that is too spicy for you, buy shorter-out t-bills on the market to keep your average maturity lower.

(This mirrors some of the primary strategies used by money market funds, but a startup is in a better position because they can probably accurately forecast their cash needs a week or a month out.)
Well, if you choose to interpret “a work of Shakespeare” literally, then obviously. But that’s not what people mean.
There is not a dependency on deposits in order create loans. This is false. Banks can make loans to the extend of demand for loans at the banks terms. Deposits have nothing to do with it in terms of funding. The bank must be in compliance with capital requirements and reserve requirement in order to be in the federal reserve system . As Mosler says (founder of MMT) The loan guy does not call the deposit guy at the bank before making a loan.

> TreasuryDirect is so horrible to use

Sure its horrible to use. But it does the job, and is directly part of US Treasury auctions, so the prices are provably fair.

Brokerages will skim off a bit off the top when they sell you a treasury. In contrast, TreasuryDirect is direct-from-auction, with the fairest prices possible.

People have given good suggestions, but don’t feel guilty throwing them in the trash. I know there is taboo to throw away prized possessions, but phones are small and the trash is big.

I know the desire to hoard electronics. I have all my early smartphones cause they are special. Current phones are boring and not worth collecting. What changed my mind was breaking a cheap phone while fixing it, it instantly became trash. I don’t know if could throw away working phone but broken ones are garbage.

Exactly. This taboo against "victim blaming" is kind of holding society back from properly addressing scams (and other crimes). Yes, the scammers are responsible and yes, they are the only ones who should face consequences.

That being said, it's smart to take precautions, and it's not victim blaming to suggest things people can do to reduce their risk of becoming victims. I teach my kid not to play in busy streets. That's not blaming pedestrian victims for car crashes--it's just sensible, risk-mitigating precaution.

There are plenty of things which are bad but universally used. What's your point?

Fast food is universally more popular than any healthy food that requires time to cook.

People choose to buy low-quality goods in general, trading quality for immediate effect all the time. Take any industry, any product kind, you will see that consumption is skewed towards paying extra for immediate gain rather than paying for quality to minimize waste over time.

The fact that you chose to rely on the opinion of non-experts in the field to assess the value / quality of a particular technology only means that you don't understand what quality is about. You are confused between wants and needs.
What is going to happen is that groups of people will pool resources to fine tune released LLMs on specific data sets, then release low rank approximations that can be blended into a base model.

I am confused by the meaning of Docker's announcement. They keep saying "organizations" will have Docker images deleted. Does that include personal FOSS images or not? Because the vast majority of Docker Hub images are uploaded by individual contributors, not "organizations."

Too bad about their poor relationship with the FOSS community. I've applied to them for years, and actually merged some minor patches to Docker to help resolve a go dependency fiasco. Zero offers.

I guess the next logical move is to republish any and all non-enterprise Docker images to a more flexible host like the GitHub registry.
