There are unconscious parts of your mind screaming interrupts at you as your limbs extend and react about your environment using trained behaviours. Your organs groan and churn also using unconscious trained behaviours from your brain.

They form a feedback loop of input with your brain, the conscious side of which you are aware of, and the unconscious side oprating silently in the background.

What do you think will happen if you deprive your brain of these inputs? Yes your conscious mind might cope, but your unconscious mind might go berserk, and start spamming hidden error messages to your conscious which might manifest in many unpredictable ways.

AptX and its HD version (which is basically the same algorithm configured with a different set of parameters) are very simple compared to e.g. AAC. If I remember correctly, aptX was initially designed as a computationally efficient ADPCM-based telephony codec. It still is, but it's being marketed as "audiophile-grade" nowadays. As to why it's still popular: SBC was indeed suffering from unnecessarily low bitrates and noticeable low-pass filtering, so aptX did sound nicer than many SBC implementations. But I guess "sounds better than broken SBC" doesn't sell as much as "indistinguishable* from high resolution audio".

I'm asking because I picked up a hitchhiker way back when that was an ordinary thing to do, and he was a vocational school grad, but told me this whole thing about how the Wizard of Oz was a parable about the gold standard (follow the yellow bricks to the Emerald City) vs greenback dollar, with the cowardly lion (Dept of Defence) and the Tin Man (midwest industrial might) and Scarecrow (agriculture), pitting the witches of the North and South and East and West... you get the picture. It's a very tight theory, and I was shocked I hadn't learned this in my college track/college career.

and I believed it for the next decades till I found out: it wasn't true.

So I ask you again, is this something you know you know? I only have time left to believe one new thing and I need to be sure of it

Some in my uni (im graduating soon) will also complete their CS bachelors, but they have chosen very different specializations. Im in Germany, so its a University, and your mileage may vary in the US, as there are different freedoms in choosing classes there than here afaik.

I chose the "traditional" stuff, like operating systems, compilers, did my databases course with a lot of interest, embedded, and then wrote some software in my free time (beammp.com's server, which is a game server for a multiplayer game, lots of concurrency and network stuff), and other side projects, a lot of stuff from scratch, and a good lot of open source contrib.

A lot of my peers don't do their own side projects, and if they do, its a website or something ontop of layers of abstraction (like a CRUD app in TS).

A different subset of my peers chose specializations in which they barely need to know what a variable is, such as security related courses which are more law than CS (e.g. forensics), some who go for "fullstack" webdev almost exclusively (no interaction with hardware, DBs only through abstractions with no sql in sight, abstractions of abstractions and a lot of copy paste).

The few of my peers who are interested in CS to the degree that they enjoy learning the foundational things share my view, and I often talk to them about this topic.

I dont mean to be dismissive of those other disciplines - they are valid and the depth of knowledge that can be acquired about, say, TS, is not something im questioning.

To me, its just not that CS-y to write html, I feel that close to the hardware is where the programmers with the degrees should be. In my experience as a webdev you get outpriced by third world country developers very easily, and thats a tough spot. Not so much in, say, robotics.

I don't give Meta much of my empathy, but could imagine a company with the same goal needing most of their staff in office.

To put it short, it's the same way early Swift engineers were spending most of their time in C++. They had to to build the new language.

Same way I could see a metaverse company needing engineer physically present not just to get access to the newest hardware but also work around the limitations of their own products until it's actually ready to be used 24/7.

Now I'd still see whole classes of engineers not bound by those issues (e.g. backend engineers etc.).
Twitter users are routinely making new sub-accounts to manage persona and relationships, so social media account counts don't correspond to skull counts anyway. Hacked Mastodon instances may report entirely bogus numbers too.

Heck, even had one code challenge pre-interview a few years back at x2-x3 the salary I was aiming for at the time, for a C++ role, even though my total experience of C++ is half of one job that I only stayed in for about 15 months. Obviously I didn't get that interview let alone the job, but that's why they don't just rely on the contents of self-promotion documents we write and which they barely read.
> If it was just XML overhead, compression should mitigate most of it.

Strong enough compression should mitigate most of it, but DEFLATE (and consequently zip and gzip) is not a strong enough algorithm.

For example, let's imagine that a particular format is available both in JSON and in a binary format and is entirely composed of objects, arrays and ASCII strings, so binary doesn't benefit much from a compact encoding. Now consider a JSON `[{"field1":...,"field2":...,...},...]` with lots of `fieldN` strings duplicated. DEFLATE will be able to figure out that `","fieldN":"` fragments frequently occur and can be shortened into a backreference, but that backreference still takes at least two bits and normally a lot more bits (because you have to distinguish different `","fieldN":"` fragments), so they will translate to pure overhead compared to compressed binary.

Modern compression algorithms mainly deal this pattern with two ways, possibly both. The backreference can be encoded to fractional number of bits, implying the use of arithmetic/range/ANS coding (cf. Zstandard). Or you can recognize different token distributions for different contexts (cf. Brotli). They do come with non-negligible computational overhead though and became only practical recently with newer techniques.

It is very hard to answer your question without knowing what college you are interviewing students from.

I know they're half-European now, but I've finished MComp in the UK and you could totally do the post-batchelor stuff with next to no programming.
There is a huge divide between Europe and the US on this front. Because degrees are so expensive in the US the expectation is that you are going to pay for that with the shiny job you get as a result of the degree.

In Europe where third level is far cheaper, it's more looked upon as continuing education. The way in the US people look at high school. Sure you'd like to get a job after, but it's really just a stepping stone to your career and not a huge financial investment that needs to be repayed.

I would even argue most progressives are seeing flaws and don’t accept them and push for change but you don’t need to be “radical”(as in further from the status quo) in your views to do that and it doesn’t make you less of a progressive - you are just trying to push to a different spot on the manifold.

> The Robot needs the artist to train.

It doesn’t, though. The models that are transforming the markets now would continue to do so, in much the same way, if no additional art from working “traditional” artists was used to train either base models or fine tunes.

Sure, if this existed before the models – which it couldn’t, since it incorporates one of them directly – and had been applied to all existing (including public domain) art and it was completely effective and had no immediate countermeasure, it could have obstructed or delayed things, but now its trying to unring the bell, and it can’t, even if it worked flawlessly on a technical level.

> The robot can't train on its own output because it doesn't understand what it's supposed to be drawing.

Actually, a very significant source of training data for new training of models is…output of existing models curated by the trainer. The robot can be trained on its own output.

Ironic statement, given that they do even to use Glaze, which incorporates exactly the tool they are blaming to do its work.

> Their vaccine (sinovac) didn’t work very well… there was no point mandating it.

Okay…? How does this address my question about alternative vaccines? Including the fact that the PRC had a local company with an mRNA vaccine license? Was there scientific reasons for this? Lack of industrial ability and know-how? National pride?

Again, I do not have answers for these questions. But I keep being told that the government in Beijing is competent and that its actions were inevitable. To me, it stinks to high heaven and I believe mistakes were made (just like most governments did during the pandemic, like Boris Johnson stating that the NHS was well prepared in January 2020), but that there is an unwillingness to admit this and we get platitudes like “they had no choice”.

> Despite what you may have read Sweden also limited people’s movement and gathering and did localised lockdowns.

And were any of these actions even remotely like what we saw in the PRC? A cat and a lion both qualify as “cats” (felidae), but if you tell me I will share my room with a cat and I end up with a lion I think you will agree that I have both a right to complain and be somewhat surprised. Sweden to the best of my knowledge had government recommendations issued (at least I know that this was the case in Japan), with no criminal prosecution in the case of breaches. Are you really in good faith arguing that what we saw in the PRC was in any way comparable?
