Are there any economists that support your theory? Namely that (if I understand your point correctly) immigration is hurting the economy more than it’s helping? Everything I’ve seen claims the opposite - but I’m open to new information.

Also, what support do you have for the claim that the existence of temporary foreign workers suppress wages for working Canadians? My understanding is that they are performing jobs that Canadians just won’t do and thus, their presence shouldn’t affect Canadian working wages (or so the theory goes).
Gotta love the teams mute button that is unresponsive for 5-10 seconds if your disk is under high IO.
If we render stuff with the same technologies that websites use, it means performance improvements and bugs that affect the web affect the Firefox UI and vice versa.

It also means a UI that's noticeably slower than actual native UI. There's plenty of reasons why I use Firefox instead of other browsers, but the increased UI latency is definitely noticeable and one of the reasons why others might not want to switch to FF.

Iran was Sunni before the Safavids. Sunni Iranian holdouts took refuge in South Asia (hence why Sunni Islam in Punjab, Pakhtunkwa, Kashmir, and Sindh is heavily Persianized), South East Asia (hence why Islam in Malaysia and Aceh rely heavily on Persianate motifs as well), and Central Asia, where there was always a longstanding Persian Sunni community in Khorasan and Fergana.

That said, there was a decent amount of Shia polysterization as well in SEA that ended up getting mixed and merged into Sunni Islam due to political influence.

Oh, it was clear from the article that this is not a recommended configuration! I only meant confidence in Tailscale as a product and in its strategy. Wherever I've used Tailscale at work it has been Tailscale™, haha.

The article was fun and interesting and it has impressed Tailscale Funnel into my memory, which is a feature I'd not yet tried. :)

Sorry about your immigration system woes, by the way. Ordinary bureaucracies and formal processes and appointments are maddening enough. High stakes bureaucracies that affect where you can work and live? Ugh, ugh, ugh.

Most are. If you have certain heart conditions, you might not know you have them, and then die. That's why it's likely that they'd require an ECG (and maybe have an age limit and require generally reasonable health/fitness), but if you're a reasonably healthy adult, it should be fine.

Forces depend a lot of the specific vehicle. The space shuttle peaks at 3 G, I've seen numbers from 3.6 to 4.5 (again peak) for Crew Dragon on the way up, 3-5 on the way back. Soyuz seems to be 4 on a good day and 10 on a bad one, plus the momentary forces during landing.

Since we put anyone willing to pay a few bucks on carnival rides that sustain (!) up to 3 G for minutes, and the profile can likely be adjusted at the expense of reduced payload capacity, I don't expect this to be a big problem.

> If you have a logic bug for example, your program will correctly and consistently do the wrong thing.

Not correct. Bugs can occur differently in different architectures, even in high level languages. UB is just a kind of bug whose effect depends on how the compiler behaves, so you have to be careful to test your code on different compiler settings. This is nothing new on programming languages, it is only made explicit in the C standard. Suddenly people started to believe that pointing out the obvious source of bugs (UB) in the standard is equivalent to let programs misbehave.

Thank you, I try! I guess the lesson here is to turn the anxiety that comes from immigration stress into surrealism that turns into blogposts. I can't believe I got away with this, but I bet I could probably do it again in the future.
The Beatles worked hard, then got famous and rich with their "simple" pop songs allowing them to follow up with lots of experimentation. I put simple in quotes because compared to what is commercially successful now their simple songs were not simple.

The music landscape today is so radically different for better or worse. Better is everything being more accessible so learning and niche experimentation is available to all. Worse is that commercial music is so saturated that interesting things don't bubble up to mass consciousness. The Beatles couldn't exist today, but they couldn't have existed in the 70s, 80s or 90s either.
They're doing very well too, but the company was founded by people from OpenAI, so it'd seem they took a lot of know-how with them.
It’s hardly unreasonable. Android exists almost entirely within an ecosystem of its own. Maybe Stallman was right. It’s not Linux that people love, it’s GNU plus Linux.
Even people disagree with snap I look forward to it for this specific use case. I want parts of my system to be stable and LTS and others to be pulling the latest features.

MIT has a lot of great students, staff, and faculty. The MIT Open Courseware and other publicly shared instruction videos are of great benefit to the world. Boycotting any of that sounds silly.

What happened to Aaron Swartz is tragic. Afterwards, there was an internal push to investigate what happened, and the report was made public. I think you'll find a lot of MIT affiliates who share good qualities with Swartz.

Marvin Minsky sadly died in 2016. People interested in the big picture and history of AI might do well to read some of his writings.

There are many valid criticisms, concerns, and opinions about MIT. But MIT is a big place, which attracts people from around the world, for various reasons. If you boycott people due to association with MIT, you're depriving yourself, and also depriving the world of the benefit of collaborations/synergies.
Thanks - I'll look into this.
> if we added up all of the wages of everyone on the planet and redistributed them equally, the first worlder would be much much poorer than where they started off

This point of 'most people only want what benefits them' is very shallow.

You've set up the question for failure. You limited comparison to income, and to income just among labour class. If you actually setup the question correctly, you might find the results to be different.

Are we going to re-destribute capital gains? Most people in developed world earn zero from capital gains.

Are we going to re-distribute ownership of assets, shares, and land? Most people in developed world own zero land. Many have net worth of roughly zero.

Are we going to re-distribute taxation? Taxes in the first world are paid almost entirely by the middle class.

What about right to pollute, currently wealthy individuals have unlimited right to pollute, some take helicopter rides and jets to cut travel time by <1 hour or to avoid traffic.

> what capitalism has been doing for the past century

Capitalism has been dumping toxic waste from the west in developing nations, like used electronic and plastics. It has brought Opium addiction to China, British American Tabacco is selling to children in South America right now, Nestle has admitted to slavery in Thailand.

Western companies have bribed local officials, and hired death squads to kill local union leaders and environmental activists.

The leading countries to rise in the last 30 years, China and Singapore, have active, competent and interventionist governments.
> It's untenable without a government-enforced wealth-redistributing tax to offset that.

I find it interesting that you point the problem (this is not capitalism but rather the lack of it) and then suggest that the government (which made this whole system possible) somehow fixes this. The government is the problem and a top down approach doesn't work (it didn't work for the soviets and it's not going to work now).

The solution is capitalism, and liberalization of the markets. In other words, letting people and capital build houses and live in them.
> Informative here meaning that you can deduce something about a plant's condition from faint sounds emitted by it. It's not implying that the plants use those sounds for the purpose of transmitting information.

We already know that plants transmit information to each other through the air by emitting chemicals. It doesn't seem hugely significant whether or not they also do it by emitting sounds.
You do want to blow up (not deliberately though) this thing once though. If no prototype ever blows up before you start going into production, you never know some pieces of information you’d gave gotten from monitoring the failure process.

> I remember this book being fun to read. It was the time when acolytes of Stallman ran amok and Windows was doomed to perish leaving Linux to inherit the world.

Maybe I was more pessimistic, but I remember that era as waiting for the hammer to fall: Microsoft was becoming more powerful, bringing more and more hardware under its effective sway, with Linux drivers being either nonexistent or only working on a subset of what was out there. It was an era of Winmodems ("modems" that were crappy sound cards that hooked up to a phone line, with all of the modem functionality being done in the Windows-only driver) and "Linux on Laptops" being more theory than practice. Heck, a common way to get WiFi was NDISWrapper, which ran a Windows driver in a "container" of some kind because it wasn't feasible to reverse-engineer the hardware and do it right.

And later there was Palladium, and the spectrum of boot signing locking out all non-Windows OSes forever, on pains of legal prosecution.

It's much better now, even in the x86 world.

This seems to be an announcement that Prusa is abandoning open-source hardware; they're only going to release the "electronic plans" of MK4 under a license that prohibits "the production of nearly exact 1:1 clones for commercial purposes" and also does not permit the production of "parts that can be considered consumables"¹, which clearly cannot be open source, and they plan to move all their products to such a license.

They also seem to be announcing that they are going to lie about it by falsely claiming that it is open source.

Hopefully this is an April Fool's joke.

¹ They say it would permit the production of such parts "after the verification by the licensor", which is to say that it would permit the production of such parts at the licensor's pleasure. This is similar to the situation with copyright, where you can make copies of the work if the copyright owner approves of it, but it is not at all clear that heater blocks and printing plates are subject to copyright.
Adding "metrics" just for yourself is pretty sad. But if this isn't just a poorly named variable, this is genuinely dystopian.
I think you two peeps discussion illustrates the root problem with the whole issue to taxation and wealth. We start out with ideas for solving it, but quickly the scale of the mess that is the ‘wealth system’ quickly busts pretty much any solution. Trying to appreciate the true scale of the problem and any solutions becoming quickly impossible. And I think this is by design. It protects the system for the wealthiest…

> They have blood on their hands and history of silencing and oppressing dissidents such as Aaron Schwartz.

I guess what you have in mind is that Aaron Swartz was arrested by the MIT Campus Police (together with a Secret Service agent). This is not oppression by MIT. The MIT Campus Police received the arrest warrant from a federal prosecutor (Carmen Ortiz) and they needed to carry out the arrest. They did not have a choice in the matter.

If anything MIT was the opposite of what you portray them to be. They had an open campus policy at the time (they stopped that during Covid). Anyone could wander inside the campus and walk through the MIT buildings, and in some cases could access computers, which Aaron Swartz did in order to download articles. Actually, MIT helped Aaron in carrying out his mission.

As for MIT helping the US military, yes, they did and they do that. I'm proud of it. If you think the military is bad, you haven't been paying attention lately, especially in the last one year and a bit.

Exploiting Passwords for MFA
There are three modes to Bing Chat, and at least two models involved. AFAIK only the "creative" mode uses GPT-4 (the other two some flavors of GPT-3.5).
As far as I can see Bing/Creative is no different to ChatGPT+ (the non-free version) which is also GPT-4 based.
Looking at a typical site, a reasonable user might want to accept one (or perhaps a couple) of many dozens of cookies a site attempts to set. Choosing it manually per site per cookie is difficult but perhaps theoretically possible, however even that still requires cooperation from the site to honestly identify that this one is the cookie which is functionally required, and these fifty are for ad tracking, and ensuring that cooperation still requires legal means and can't be done with purely technical ones.

Furthermore, there is the important distinction about multiple uses of the same data. There are uniquely identifiable cookies that are functionally required for one purpose but the site may want to use it for other purposes as well (e.g. share that data with heir "trusted partners" for targeted advertising) for which user may reasonably want to refuse permission, so a browser accepting a cookie doesn't imply such permission and something extra is required.
The goal is to make the system more fair, not eliminate one of the parties involved. Taking such an extreme position in an argument also doesn't help the situation.

Yet it seems to me at least, that you are taking the extreme position. People are arguing for nuanced improvement, and discussing what issues may arise.

You're essentially saying "Enough talk, do random things". In fact, you're saying "do almost anything", which is quite extreme.

The point I made in the other sub-thread, is that many many other countries did that very thing. Whether by revolution, or elected and then massive change, these countries ended up with utter devastation, and in some cases 100% poverty.

I get you're frustrated. Fair enough. But waving away how difficult these issues are, just isn't workable.

To that end, I see people criticize:

* low interest rates

* high interest rates

* 0 interest rates

* quantitative easing

* methods to prevent bank collapses

* methods to reduce the depth of a recession

* methods to slow economic growth (reign in inflation)

Quite literally, no matter what anyone does, people are yelling "Idiots!" at the result. Meanwhile, the results compared to other nations aren't horrible.

I 100% agree that we need to look at ways to reverse the trend of wealth equity. But to say it's just simple and easy, just snap your fingers and try stuff?

No way.

And the wrong results can be utterly disastrous.

This would mean you’d have to insert a check every time you add two signed integers together, because signed overflow is UB. You’d also have to wrap every memory access with bounds checks, because OOB memory access is UB.

There are also tons and tons of loop optimizations compilers do for side-effect free loops which would have to be removed completely. This is because infinite loops without side effects are UB. So if you wanted these optimizations you’d have to prove to the compiler — at compile time — that your loop is guaranteed to terminate since it is not allowed to assume that it will. Without these loop optimizations, numerical C code (such as numpy) would be back in the stone ages of performance.

Edit: I just wanted to point out that one of the new features in C23 is a standard library header called <stdckdint.h> that includes functions for checked integer arithmetic. This allows you to safely write code for adding, subtracting, and multiplying two unknown signed integers and getting an error code which indicates success or failure. This will be the standard preferred way of doing overflow-safe math.

So, you're saying that when interest rates first dropped mega-low, people could afford a house?

But... that's what caused the current problem, some say. Rates too low, for a decade, causing a housing bubble. It sounds to me like what you recall, was an aberration.

EDIT: Don't get me wrong. I think the bar to home ownership should be lower. But at the same time, I think it hasn't been low, for 50+ years.
