> We want to be able to write any kind of application, but we don't want to have to do it in javascript.

To make "any kind of application" on the web you need the web to provide sensible APIs for those applications. And Javascript has nothing to do with it. E.g. lack of controls listed over at https://open-ui.org/ has nothing to do with Javascript.

> If C# would just let us write native UI with HTML and CSS

Good luck implementing anything beyond the most basic controls with HTML and CSS.

I find it highly difficult to figure out what the article is trying to say. This especially as it's trying to say something about private debt vs the welfare system. I don't understand what the article is trying to say, especially the link between welfare system vs mortgages vs debt.

Why care about nominal GDP though? More important how the economy does per capita and Japan seems to have held its wealth over time, there's almost no change¹ since the 90s. Economically and development wise, Japan has done remarkably well.

Mass immigration is a big gamble, with problems societies might not foresee and that only manifest many years later. It worked more or less well in a place like Canada, but for a counter example look at Western Europe, they messed it up.

I’m sympathetic to this observation but what’s your point? Just a tangent? There is nothing wrong with that but I’m not sure if this is supposed to clarify something.

For whatever it’s worth it looks like at least Sweden and Norway have property taxes. Didn’t check others.

China is an example of a country without them. Except you can’t own land in China. Your house is effective leased from the government. So not exactly an improvement.

> I believe we don't require complete elimination of air traffic to hit climate goals and would be restricting it LAST for government use anyway.

So you excuse the hypocrisy because teleconferences would have worked just fine. Interesting.

> As long as EU/US emissions are higher per capita

China has more CO2 per capita than EU, and yet they get concessions in those aforementioned hypocritical accords.

> Pretty much every "western nation" has close to zero or negative population growth pre-immigration. This makes the governments job harder because they have to deal with demographic change (=> pensions) and second order effects (like cultural rifts from compensating immigration). That is already more than enough motivation to keep population growth somewhat up, CO2/capita considerations never even enter the picture.

I don't know what you mean. Boosting population in the highest CO2 emitting societies in the world is not a good thing. They do it because of "the economy", because per-capita does obviously enter the picture. If they were actually interested in the environment, they would let population naturally reduce. It's the easiest thing in the world to reduce consumption by reducing population. You need zero new technology, and no changes to lifestyle, and you can achieve large reductions.

Not only in CO2 emissions but in all other environmental footprint. CO2 might have the limelight now, but there are many other catastrophic environmental problems and resource depletion that our massive global consumption causes which have no real solutions.

That being said, I found the OpenAssistant model much better: https://huggingface.co/spaces/olivierdehaene/chat-llm-stream...

I'd stress adding a sample for each grade, if possible. It makes it easier for your prospective buyers/subscribers to imagine what starting this program might look like, since most will be looking, initially, at a single grade or a few grades, not the program as a whole, and 6th grade, say, can be a whole lot different from 2nd grade. Avoid making them try to guess how the form and content for a lesson for a grade they're not (currently) interested in will look for a grade they are interested in.

Super bonus points if you can record a couple of the lessons being delivered and post them on Youtube or whatever—the more you can convince prospects that they can use this and have it actually work, the better, I'd expect, and videos can help fill in gaps in imagination or confidence in turning written materials into a real lesson. Kinda like how sometimes a YouTube video of a board game with complex rules being played can make one more certain about how to run it, than reading the rules a couple times.
Your theory fails because northern European countries have significantly higher fertility rates than the US. See: https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/field/total-fertility...

It depends on the country. Sweden and Norway have a larger share of foreign-born population than the US and the UK. Netherlands is roughly on the same level as the US and the UK, while Denmark and Finland have fewer immigrants.

I am personally not a fan of Forgejo relicensing (to AGPL). Makes the "soft fork" aspect so much harder, because anything contributed to Forgejo cannot be easily cherry picked onto Gitea.
> None of that is standard though.

WebIDL is pretty much standard as for defining the ABI for the web APIs.
All browser engines use it as far as I'm aware.

I agree that there is no standard way to do it from any language other than JS, but from JS that's pretty much set. I wonder why do we need to recreate rather than reuse. It will be way simpler if Wasm simply adopts WebIDL and the languages bindings just adapt to it with slight modifications (such as DOMString or others)

It would probably be more practical to map the GPU into userspace, than to put the application in kernel space.
I'm getting ~ 180 MB/s on a Samsung SM8?? which hits around 3 GB/s on a desktop. I'm using a 5.1V 3.5A supply so that ought not be the issue (but I'll try another PSU now).

Alpaca is cool but it's also not technically allowed by OpenAI's TOS, and LLaMA is certainly not allowed to be used for non-commercial purposes. With that in mind, OpenAssistant is an Apache 2.0 licensed fully open source alternative that's pretty good (the model is OpenAssistant/oasst-sft-1-pythia-12b): https://huggingface.co/spaces/olivierdehaene/chat-llm-stream....

I've found OA to be better than Alpaca but I'll wait until the 65B 3-bit quantization efforts for Alpaca are underway to compare them.
Which might/should prompt a rethink...

You are correct, but I disagree with the premise. Javascript and the entire ecosystem is horrible and only came to rise because there was no other option.

For the first time ever we do a have shot of making something better and our goal is to adapt it to the lowest common denominator? We most certainly don't make it easy for ourselves...

What I got out of it is that mortgages are the main driver and that they see a correlation between welfare benefiting young people and higher debt. By contrast countries where the welfare is more focused on the elderly there is less household debt.

Someone might say: We need taxes to pay for X. Well, sure. I get that. We should get that money through other means, not through a system where people work their entire lives to pay off a mortgage only to discover they will have to keep paying to "own" that home for the rest of their lives. Perhaps the distinction should be your residence vs. investment/rental property. Not sure. Haven't through it through much deeper than that.

I think we should tax land, but not buildings. Land shouldn't be horded and should be distributed to folks who are best to make use of it for societal's benefit.

The idea of building enough nest egg for retirement doesn't make sense to me, especially if we take the long term perspective. It only make sense because we age over time and thus get weaker and frail. If we were always healthy as a horse, then we would have periods in which we work for our living, but not permanent retirement.
Increase minimum wage to $45/hr to match the loss in increased wages over the past 40 years. Then wives will have the choice whether to work or not because one person will be able to make enough for them, their spouse and children to live.

Go is garbage collected. It is significantly easier to write than Rust --- it's not just easier to learn, but easier for experts to write, because it's doing a bunch of work for the developer that Rust doesn't.

On the other hand, if you need manual memory management (for performance reasons, or because you're doing something bare-metal), you'll be fighting Go's garbage collector, and Rust has conveniences for manual memory management that Go doesn't.

Sort of. The publishers have always hated the concept. They simply never chose to file any lawsuit until the National Emergency Library came about. The trouble with lawsuits is they might be ruled the other way, providing explicit precedent that something is allowed (such as in 2013 when the Supreme Court ruled that importing and selling international editions of textbooks is legal). Sometimes the threat of litigation has a stronger chilling effect than actual litigation. But not here—IA saw an opportunity to push the boundaries, and took it. And the publishers probably think uncontrolled digital lending is an easier battle to win than controlled digital lending.

My personal point was just to document my exploration of using prompts to generate new prompts, and more specifically the case where the prompts contain state and each recursively generated prompt updates that state to be closer to an end goal (which in this case I compared to the concept of a base case in recursion).

For whatever reason Patrick H. Winston's MIT OCW lecture on Cognitive Architectures always stuck with me, and in particular his summary of the historical system from CMU called General Problem Solver (GPS) in which they try to identify a goal and then have the AI evaluate the difference between the current state and the goal and try take steps to bridge the gap.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PimSbFGrwXM&t=189s

The ability for LLMs to break down problem into sub-steps (a la "Let's think step by step" [1]) reminded me of this part of Winston's lecture. And so I wanted to try making a prompt that (1) contains state and (2) can be used to generate another prompt which has updated state.

With respect to the latter, no. They’re less levered. And they’re principals. Investment banks are levered, mostly sell-side beasts with highly-specialised, highly-compensated (and similarly lucrative) staff with a penchant for blowing up.

> > So often when people launch their startups here

That's the main problem. There is nothing special about this place in terms of consumers. Most people in here dread consuming because it subtracts from FIRE goals.

If you are a startup and hope to come in here to make sales or to get the ball rolling, then it's possibly the hardest place to do so.

So given that the sales angle is a waste of time what's left is recruiting. People are hostile to passions and ideas, much like the immune system is to a virus. Because people in here know full well that founders are trying to infect potential employees with passions and ideas because it means being able to pay less, or pay with stock options which essentially amounts to a grand total of nothing with startups given that they mostly go to zero.
As much as we can blame elites for a lot of these issues - Sheer physical depletion of energy and resource per-capita is one of the big driving forces behind a lot of these things nowadays.

Don't get me wrong, the elites are definitely making things a LOT worse but it is not entirely on them.

If everyone in this world lived like the middle classes, we would strip the planet bare in no time. The middle class is probably going to be remembered as just a weird moment in time thanks to the great blow off of the petroleum age.

The best thing those in power can do is try to organise for a society that doesn't require as much consumption.
Deadlines don't matter - if you're in a startup you're trying to test the market fit and iterateing to corner the market. Worrying about micro optimizing infra cost and talking about scaling in this context in my opinion is premature optimization - root of all evil.
I wasn't, no. You're right, that might make a difference. Thanks for the article, it's very useful, I've been curious about the system prompt!
What on earth are you talking about. Why would anyone want to inefficiency simulate stackfull co-routines using system threads? And what does underlying engine design have to do with the JavaScript spec? Additionally why do you think anyone is advocating for the use of a single system thread per co-routine in a discussion about Java virtual threads, a technology does the literal opposite?

There’s nothing preventing anyone from creating a JavaScript engine that simulates async JavaScript using stackful cooperative co-routines, all operating in a single shared system thread. Perfectly upholding the existing JS thread model, but substantially reducing the bookkeeping needed to produce useful stack traces.
It took Open Source a few days to do what people though would tak 8 yrs. How long before we have a truly "open data" LLM?

(American POV):

Here in most places it is because supply is suppressed by government policy and the planning and approval process. Want to add a room to your house? That could be 10's of thousands in planning fees if it is even allowed and it still could be denied. Want to turn your laundromat into an apartment complex? Denied: the proposal will cast shadows across a lot where the city is thinking of building a playground for a local school[0].

Overall its very much in the interests of those who own property to keep more from being built and they naturally act for those interests.

[0]Not hyperbole - this is an actual example.

In wealthy countries, I think it would make sense to raise taxes quite a bit but include huge tax deductions for kids. Like $20k/kid and keep AMT for very high (over 400k) incomes.

This would incentivize people to have kids and free up money to buy homes and keep a parent at home to raise the kids. Single people would pay very high taxes but I would imagine the rents in places they like to live would decrease.
Humans manage to reason just fine with neither of these.
