Now it looks like it’s never going to get better but it will. Just in your current state you can’t see it. I really hope you get the strength and resources to overcome your depression.

I think a psychiatrist/psychologist or other expert has the knowledge and tools to help you but you mentioned several times it doesn’t work. I hope you can find a better one that can really help you.

Your friends and family are the ones that are going to suffer the most about losing you, so go and talk with them about this situation. I really hope you can help each other.

Finally, I read people changing their environment can help. If you can afford it going for a vacation for a week and see if you feel better? The farther the better (i.e. if you’re in US go to Spain).

There are no simple, magical solutions but at least try something small(i.e. taking vacations, or some days off), gain confidence, and go step by step. No matter where you are, we all start somewhere. Your life is precious.

I really wish you find all the patience, love, and solutions/changes to your problems.

> We don't care too much about work or a career. And most of us don't want to do more, we want to get a decent salary for our boring work.

Yikes. Productive work is not just a way to earn a living but also a way to achieve personal fulfillment and happiness. It's a means of creating value and contributing to society. A person who works just for the salary and does not find any meaning in his work is not living up to his full potential.
It wouldn't surprise me if something like this already exists in Japan.

I can get behind a story of starting with cargo, trying to improve by adding sccache, and when that's not enough switching to Bazel. I believe 99% of projects/organisations are best served with the first two of these steps, but it's nice to have the option of going to Bazel for the other 1% of cases (like when you have a lot of inhouse C++ in the mix).

I really don’t want my productivity to increase.

Worst case scenario is that it gets SO good at writing code that software engineering teams are severely downsized or are made obsolete altogether, and I find myself out of a job. I’m not expecting UBI to start falling out of the sky any time soon, especially while there are still manual labor jobs that robots can’t do.

Alternative scenario is that individual developers get somewhere around a 2x-5x productivity increase, but why would I want that? That doesn’t give me more free time - that just means I’ll be expected to do more work. Non-technical management already expects ridiculous delivery timelines; now I’ll have to deal with them asking “why can’t you have the whole project done by tomorrow? Why can’t you just have the robot do it?”

It’s a lose-lose situation and none of us asked for this.
If there was never a need for humans to understand code, are higher level languages really the most efficient?
No it isn’t and this isn’t a funny joke. If you can’t write optimal algorithms and come up with data structures that allow for mapping out problems you aren’t solving anything and your job has always been one innovation away from disappearing.

> I’ve continued to tell them that simple UIs and CRUd interfaces to dbs are solved problems we should not be fighting with.

Maybe we shouldn't be, but it's still a problem that regularly needs to be solved.
Personally I'm excited whenever an opportunity to wholesale replace a part of my job comes up. I got in to technology because I wanted to make people's lives better, and in theory removing demands on their time does that.

The only problem is that we live in a system that directs the gains upward and any costs downwards, and in so doing creates perverse incentives against people welcoming their redundancy.
> Now you don’t need to hire junior devs and can just build the product of your dreams with very limited capital.

And so-called "senior engineer" salaries will now be brought down and deflated since they were inflated and unjustifiably high in the first place and are the main reason why these tech startups run themselves into the ground with little to no path to profitability.

I guarantee you that so far, the only winner in this is OpenAI. Not the 'senior engineers' building on top of someone else's AI API.

In fact, why hire 3 over-priced seniors when one junior with ChatGPT is significantly much cheaper? I quite find it funny that somehow, all hope is instantly lost because of a "AI" spitting out code will replace them. It just shows that the majority of these tech startups were just good at losing money and being solely dependent on VC cash.

I don't understand how initializing cryptographic keys from an HSM at boot time is an untenable proposition. The quorum would be for accessing the key by human means. You can have a separate, approved path for pre-authorized machines to access cryptographic primitives across an isolated network.
What you see online is very unrepresentative. Both of people's views (which often breaks along party lines) and the actual dangerousness of USA cops (which varies wildly depending on location and department).
Exactly. Going after the folks that are basically helping improve your credibility is plain stupid.

[As an aside, is the GPT feedback functionality correct? For example, if the secret word is "peals" and the user's guess is "apple" the feedback is going to be "a?p?p?l+e?". However, I would expect the feedback to be "a?p?_l+e?". Because the first 'p' exists in the secret but is in the wrong place and the second 'p' does not exist in the secret word.]
Ah how boring (and clever).

If Reinforcement Learning is anything to go by, then a naive implementation of learning from past models will overfit to the previous model and start performing worse than even earlier models.

There was a paper by someone @ Microsoft who tried to train a boardgame playing AI like this. The "best" models started losing to beginner level players from some point onwards.
> DPI scaling hackery

Under X11 with KDE, or under Windows, that's no problem whatsoever. 144dpi isn't any more hacky than 96dpi or 192dpi.

It's only macOS, Gnome and Wayland that require 1x or 2x scaling (which is absolutely mind-bogglingly ridiculous, and anyone that contributed to that or encouraged that should be banned from ever touching UI code again).
If you use DNSSEC (cue inevitable rant from Thomas) this just works. If you have DoH (and why wouldn't you?) and your trusted resolver uses DNSSEC (which popular ones do), you get the same benefits.

> OpenAI made the extraordinary and IMO under-discussed decision to use an open API specification format, where every API provider hosts a text file on their website saying how to use their API. This means even this plugin ecosystem isn’t a walled garden that only the first mover controls. I don’t fully understand why they went this way, but I’m grateful they did.

Why is this extraodinary? What would be the advantage of going through all the effort of defining a new format just to create busywork for people trying to integrate with you?

It's not like there would be anything stopping Bard/Alpaca/etc. from reading the same format as OpenAI.
I have personal experience doing something similar for the past 2 years.

My opinion is that in the phrase "CS Teacher" the more important part is "teacher", and not "CS" :)

The first task is to raise the aspiration level of the students' to high levels; much higher than what has been done previously, to excite them that there's potential for raising capabilities. Humans tend not to come pre-loaded with civilisational aspirations (merely biological impulses and all sorts of mediocre influences), hence raising aspirations is an uphill battle. You can get some excitement initially, but keeping it going while working for it day to day is tough.

The second task is to teach how to accept unpleasantness in the process. There is a natural energy saving tendency in humans, unless they are highly trained against such tendencies. Scholars are people who have trained themselves to acquire knowledge and skills, overcoming the biological human tendency to avoid exertion. One must set personal example, in tackling hard problems, and also use books, media, examples, and speeches to fire up the capacity to exert oneself. The most important quote here is: "There is no royal road to mathematics (or subject X)". Also, something I've found is that examples from sports psychology/training can help in learning better.

The third task is about installing a belief in the power of consistency. So building up a system where everyone works together in a consistent and systematic way helps with the knowledge acquisition process. It is about continuous followup. Not a single thing gets done, or assimilated properly without continuous followup. So build systems to keep people continuously engaged, to raise the quality of their understanding through quantitative and qualitative methods.

Which industry would you recommend? I hate studying and I especially hate everything software development related with a passion.

In any case, I need to refute your argument, in my work as software engineer spanning more than a decade, I have noticed zero deprecation of my skills (Java, SQL, HTML/JS/CSS) (while keeping them up to date!) until now and only had to learn a few new complementing skills (cloud, docker, SPA, Kubernetes). The only skill that got replaced might have been "Java application server management" since that got replaced by whatever docker runtime is en vogue at the moment. I have worked for the government and met PL1/Cobol mainframe programmers that refused to learn Java and still got paid generously for their long term expertise.

It showed up too late. We did our integration 2016-2017. We were held to far more unrealistic standards at the time.
This just kicks the can down the road to DNS.

I'd guess that most systems aren't using DoH/DoT or end-to-end DNSSEC yet. Some browsers do, but that doesn't help tooling frequently used on the command line.

I suppose you could just accept X.509 certificates for some large/enterprise git domains, but that pokes up the hornet's nest that is CA auditing (the browser vendors are having a lot of fun with that, I'm happy that the OpenSSH devs don't have to, yet).

And where do you maintain the list that decides which hosts get to use TOFU and which ones are allowed to provide public keys? Another question very ill-fitted for the OpenSSH dev team.
Similarly, I’d like to see an HHKB layout option. It’s the layout I use most on desktop boards and it’s always been a bummer I can’t have it on laptops.

> Police and Law Enforcement salivate at the data and control Social Media/Tech companies have.

Of course they do, but the core point remains: the kind of power wielded is not the same. Pinterest can’t show up at your door with guns based on the things you pin. The reason police salivate is because of the possibilities unlocked by having such data while also being “the law”.

I’m in no way claiming that this power is not dangerous for other reasons in the hands of tech companies, but tech having this data means something entirely different than LEO having this data.

The implications and failure modes are quite different and worthy of examination.

I think you are missing the point. The fact the US is considering a ban is OK in my book, even tho I find it a bit amusing to finally see the US do exactly what he blames China for.

> Basically we need to equate "safety" in LLMs to mean "being open-source".

I think open source is a reasonable component to safety, but I wouldn't want to make them equal. Open source may be necessary for safety, but I wouldn't call it sufficient.

For example, assume the source code, the model, the training data, and all the model weights are open source. How do you know that the model was actually trained using that training data? Very few organizations have the capacity to train models at this scale themselves.

Because the UI for the first party apps have to be approved by MBA types who have different goals than 'make it good for users'.

And my point was that the major issue with the MRSA outbreaks 15 years ago or so were because people weren't using them correctly. They even started looking into new types of sanitizers because they knew the people using them were using them incorrectly. So sure, it theory it can, but in practice it generally didn't. Hence the part of my initial comment about at least not at typical concentrations etc.

>Who would you have been hundreds or thousands of years ago?

I'll just use this opportunity to recommend the video game "Ancestors: The Humankind Odyssey". It's a game where you start as an early hominid and have to gradually discover how to make and use rudimentary tools in order to take control of your environment, literally evolving in the process. It's weird and unforgiving, and it made me really think.
That was more or less my first thought, but most likely the result would be that it would never happen, because it is not so difficult for someone with a warrant to search your house, to "find" something there. Right now, there's no motive, but if you knew that coming up empty would be, not embarrassing, but legally dangerous, the temptation to make sure you always bring backup evidence to be "found", would be large. I think it would make things worse, not better.

I think if we have the "final software" there won't be a need for a website to sell you products or another for renting a place for your vacation or the one that processes your payments. All is done in one software with one interface. I don't see a need for most of the current founders, especially for solo ones. Also consolidating this capability in a few big tech companies means whatever happened to other industries after industrial age, will happend to ours. Compare the current software industry to other industries with big players (chemical, aviation, power, etc.) where the barrier to entry is higher. Sure there are startups, but not as many as in software scene and even then, many of the are digitalizing those industries.

Kubecon (Europe) Program Schedule
Spacing is heavily underrated in current laptop keyboard design. Consider another part of the keyboard: the function key row. On traditional keyboards, it was grouped with gaps between the groups: Esc, F1–F4, F5–F8, F9–F12. (Laptop keyboards will commonly have an extra key or two at the right end, such as Delete and Insert, which historically were part of other clusters.) This grouping is excellent for spatial memory, whether visual or blind. If anything, it’s more valuable than it used to be, with the other functionality of the keys (e.g. brightness and volume adjustments). But somewhere along the way, this gap has been removed from most laptops, in favour of an unproductive uniformity.

(I have an ASUS ROG Zephyrus G15, 2021 model, GA503QM. It has a larger-than-necessary gap between Esc and F1, slightly-smaller-than-ideal gaps between F4 and F5 and F8 and F9, and sadly no gap between F12 and Delete. It also has another row of four keys higher still: XF86AudioRaiseVolume, XF86AudioLowerVolume, XF86AudioMicMute and XF86Launch1. Kinda funny how XF86AudioMute is relegated to Fn+F1. I’m really not looking forward to whenever I switch to a laptop without a dedicated mic mute button, it’s wonderful. I honestly wish they’d added another couple of buttons on this top row.)

> If you are a software engineer, this will output your productivity ten fold on the upcoming years.

Is this really true? I may be missing something (I probably am), but I didn't find much use for AI tools in my itsec/programming work. It's a nice tool to have, but I don't write that much boilerplate. I've tried to use it as a better Google, but it kept replying with made up nonsense (things I have problem with are usually niche technologies OpenAI is not good at - I expect it will get better in the future). So I find it dubious it will "10x my productivity" in the "upcoming years". Decades, maybe.

But maybe the future really is now, and I'm just being an old-timer who can't adapt.
> Basically we need to equate "safety" in LLMs to mean "being open-source".

Another way to put it is to make it more accessible to everyone, right?

The opposite of that is happening to nuclear power. They're actually trying to stop any more countries to have the technology at their disposal. So no, make it "open source" doesn't make it safe by any stretch of imagination.
