Comparing WEF specifically to ComicCon, like it's a harmless goofy diversion, is deceptively dismissive, and surely not an accident on your part.

At the very least you could compare it to an industry trade show, like an annual convention of trial attorneys or of insurance adjusters, which is a key vector for introducing and spreading new concepts and ideas in those industries.

Ah, OK. That makes sense as far as the chatbot count. That's quite unclear to me from the site, and the chatbot isn't any more helpful.

> What is the difference between pricing plans in terms of chatbots? What does that mean, exactly?

> SiteGPT offers different pricing plans based on the number of chatbots and web pages/documents that can be created. The Essential plan allows for the creation of one chatbot and up to 25 web pages/documents, while the Growth plan allows for the creation of two chatbots and up to 100 web pages/documents. The Pro plan is the most popular and allows for the creation of five chatbots and up to 500 web pages/documents. The Elite plan is the best value and allows for the creation of unlimited chatbots and up to 5000 web pages/documents. The pricing plans are designed to accommodate websites of all sizes and needs.

Congratulations, it "read the Powerpoint slide again." I had some college professors who did that. Ask for clarification, they'd read the slide again, as if I'd not understood the slide the first time.

Meh. Good luck.
They're not any more expensive than hotels in major US cities. But the original post was about Asia and South America, I just misunderstood.
Let me ask you, you live in one of the most beautiful regions on the planet, you work remote, why don't you get a place 2 hours away from the city or something like that? Nice quiet life, the beauty of the pacific northwest not even a bike ride away, cheaper to live, and you don't have to deal with the crackheads. What keeps you in the city?
Selection bias. Do you work in Silicon Valley, at startups, or ex-FAANG places? Are you a "Linux person" looking for work related to Linux technologies such as NGINX, MySQL, Postgres, Apache, etc...?

Here in Australia it's a rare thing for me to see a Linux server. They exist, sure, but are generally in the minority.

I have some self-selection biases as well, but I regularly work for large orgs with more than 10K staff and I've been to orgs with over 1K IT staff, and in all cases Linux servers were 30% of the fleet or less.

By some[1] metrics, Windows Server is about 50% of the worldwide server OS market[2]: https://www.t4.ai/industry/server-operating-system-market-sh...

[1] Market research related to server OS usage is notoriously unreliable, with idiotic things such as counting "NGINX" load balancers as a "Linux web server" even if it is one tiny load-balancer VM in front a whole fleet of Windows IIS servers running ASP.NET. There are also the "hyperscalers" that skew distributions. The FAANGS alone add hundreds of millions of Linux instances, but in huge farms of essentially identical clones. At a single medium-sized customer, they have over 1K distinct Window Server VMs or HA pairs, but they also have 1x HPC cluster with 1K Linux nodes. Do you count that as "1" Linux install, or "1000"?

[2] Again, is it just counting the "for money" market, or just the "list of all systems used for servers, including the unsupported free distros?" Microsoft doesn't publish a separate line-item for their Windows Server revenue, for example, making it hard to determine how much it's still being used.
As a society we increasingly focus on who is providing the input rather than what the output is for the society.

When Otis designed the elevator that would not do a free fall in case of a power failure—-he was looked from the lens of a charlatan rather than a significant output that helped society climb the tallest skyscrapers without effort.

Whether Sam is Dr Jekyll or Mr Hyde hardly matters, but can he concoct a potion that prevents the society from transforming into evil.

> You can't claim "wait times" as a positive of letting a bunch of people die or go bankrupt

i already covered that under 'access' . If you have access then USA has much lower wait times. Its postive to the people who have access. Your implication that wait times are just natural consequence of more access is also not right.

"Commonwealth Fund ranked Canada last among 11 countries surveyed on wait times for specialist care. the Commonwealth Fund’s survey results show that other universal health care systems (eg, the Netherlands, Switzerland, Germany, Australia, and France) have much shorter wait times than Canada does."

"Canada has 35% fewer acute care beds and per capita than the United States ... "

> Quality is just not true

If you want the most cutting edge medical care then USA is the no 1 destination for people all over the world.

"The United States ranks 4th in the World Index of Healthcare Innovation, with an overall score of 54.96, behind only Switzerland, Germany, and the Netherlands. Americans are usually the first to gain access to major new medical advances, advances often discovered at American universities and developed by American companies. As a result, the U.S. ranked first for both Choice (57.65) and Science & Technology (75.14)."

I think the whole "moving security tools on a vm that will eat up cpu cores" will be the issue to watch this year on Windows 11. There's a lot of these new crazy Windows features (that reveal why Microsoft set a hard line on the age of hardware that can be used going forward) that have the potential to be breaking points for various segments of the Windows userbase. But maybe I'm just blindly optimistic, and Microsoft has studied windows users enough to know how much they can abuse them.

I am always amazed at how election season news can make me hate "news" even more than I normally do. What does this matter? It doesn't matter, at least it shouldn't. Trump played the same stupid game that Clinton played in 2016, pandering to their party to affect "change" and blurring the line between politician and celebrity which I can not see as a good thing. Divide and conquer until the division is absolute and no one wins.

If only there was a system of government designed from first principles to reflect the will of the people...

This is just librarian tautology. It's not wrong, but any "citizen" organization you can imagine to implement whatever policy it is you want[1] is going to be isomorphic to a democratic government.

Which company, if you could share?

Please and thank you.
Just to clarify your point, it means that the opportunity for people who were the offspring of "historic" Swedish citizens and didn't not already own or inherit substantial wealth (most people) was subtracted due to the large movements of populations.

As a result, I don't see why someone would support such a policy.
Ah that makes more sense, I was thinking it was literally Nepalase citizens or dual citizens staffing most Indian restaurants in India...
Likely both. Rome had some control over the religious leadership as well. So this somewhat at least revolutionary annoyed ordinary Jews, the local Roman influenced religious leadership, and the local Roman authorities by being perceived as a kind of revolutionary at minimum in a religious sense but also in a actual sense regardless of the truth of these things.

The annoyed religious leadership referred him to the local Roman in charge of such things who had him executed.
Yeah, chatbot can only be as good as the content that is in the website. If the chatbot didn't answer it properly, that's because I did not have content on the website to answer this question.
People can live without eating animals (at least without seeking them out; getting small animals in your food is practically inevitable). However you’re right, it’s very difficult and impractical without modern agriculture. Apart from a good understanding of macros and vitamin B12, there’s not much else a vegan needs from modernity. B12 should be present in all foods too, but in modernity it’s simply too clean to get enough without supplementing. Even livestock are supplemented with it in feed lots where they aren’t exposed to much outdoor microbe-laden plant matter and water. I’m not sure how well a vegan would do if they just ate plants from a relatively “clean” field without washing the food too much; maybe they’d actually be just fine.

Bizarrely enough, even meat eaters can be somewhat low in B12 in the USA. It’s a vitamin that’s generally not in excess in a lot of diets, omnivore or otherwise.

This just goes to show what a mess this is.

Suppose you have a big piece of compute hardware (e.g. at a university) which is shared by multiple users. They all want to come in and play with these models. Each one is tens to hundreds of gigabytes. Is each user supposed to have their own copy in their home directory?

> Edit: Counterintuitively, high interest rates can help middle class people that don’t have homes. House prices drop, so you need less deposit.

At least in the USA you can buy a house with very little down nowadays because of lower interest rates.

In the end it’s always better to have lower interest rates as principal is always better than interest. Why make banks richer?

High interest rates favor cash buyers which in many markets are who you are competing with anyways.

I'd say the proof is in the product. I've read a lot of complaints over the last couple of days that the Mk4 isn't CoreXY, doesn't have an accelerometer, should be enclosed, should be _____. If the Mk4 can produce the same quality of print, does it matter how it gets there?

To use a metaphor, Prusa made the very best, reliable car you could buy. Then a bunch of similar cars, that were pretty good were released. And a few really amazing Sports cars were released. And Prusa showed up again with a really reliable, solid car. And people are mad because they thought they were going to be bringing out a flashy sports car.
What does that make C++?
As another interested party, there's almost enough CDC info out there to write a technical history - documents, interviews, software and even emulator(s). Sadly, the CDC generation is beginning to pass away, though.

It's a fascinating story, really. How CDC rose to dreaded IBM rival in only a few years, then spent the next two decades failing. Even after a single decade (1974ish) it was pretty obvious where it was going - if not for the peripherals business keeping them somewhat relevant for a while longer.

You can twist the supply demand imbalance only so much. Go farther than required for longer than required, and some cracks will eventually show up. Like they did for Silicon Valley bank.

So it is hard to say when those cracks appear since the global market is quite a big market and can sustain imbalances for a long time, but then the bigger the bubble the bigger the crash.

I find most of this stuff is an attempt to apply a mental model of the universe that is not logically consistent with the way the universe actually works.

Basically, what I'm saying is if the universe can live without strict ordering of events as a distributed system, chances are whatever thing you are designing can also live without ordered events.

For some reason people always point to financial transactions yet, there's absolutely no ordering to financial transaction events. eg. If I buy something on the weekend usually my statement says I bought it on Monday, and sometimes a day later the transaction might be visible, but might also say it occurred on Monday even though it's Sunday.

Instead banks have a better solution, if your bank account goes below zero, they charge you extra money to go extra below zero.

Oh god, I will never forget that ride. I was at a carnival when I was around 13 or 14 and rode that ride, and midway through it had a malfunction. They stopped it to address the issue, and then decided to give us an extra long ride to compensate for the problem. When it was finally over and I was about ready to stagger off of it, the operator got on the mic and said, “who wants more?!?” Seemingly everyone but me screamed for more. At that point I was too sick to make any sounds at all.

That night, hours later, as I lay on the floor of my friend’s bedroom (it was a sleepover), trying to fall asleep, I still remember feeling like the room was spinning. I never went back on that ride.
They also want to ban "nearly exact 1:1 clones", which I feel is going to be impossible to define. How many changes is going to be enough to no longer be near?

The WEF itself would starkly disagree.

The interesting thing is nobody is held to account for how the sinks cost so much. It's just "eh". Seattle has done other things like buying port-a-potties for $250,000 each, and spending $12 million to paint bike stripes on a mile of street.

Simply nobody cares about it.
Lyft exec shift after staff unrest over market loss and stock decline
Hmm, so let's say you are hiring a guy to build you a fence. One guy keeps talking about all the potential designs and tradeoffs and can show you what he did with each one before, and the other guy is like, whatever man, it's a fence, I'm licensed - you are only hiring the first guy because he's "easier to exploit"?
Please, we both know that users are not here for the code nor can or have the time to read through it, you shouldn't be kidding yourself about this fact and we know that you don't read the code of all the crypto smart contracts you interact with.

This is why what your saying about 'open source' and 'reed the code' is irrelevant.

> You can’t get scammed by an open source project...If you actually get scammed by a proprietary and centralized entity like FTX, then go after FTX and not me.

Wormhole got exploited for $320M even though it was an open source DeFi project, this hack is the 2nd biggest of all time for a DeFi project.

PolyNetwork got exploited for $620M even though it was an open source DeFi project, the biggest of all time.

Where were those reading the code there to stop it?

So when your wallet gets drained are you going to 'reed the code' to reassure yourself that you're not going to get your money back?

> ...then go after FTX and not me. Stop defending the redistribution of consequences, my money is not your basic human right.

It's already happening that FTX is being brought to the law, privacy coins will follow and will be outlawed as they already are from governments around the world.

The law is doing all the work and the precedent for crypto will be set from there.

You can have a tantrum all you want. But you wanted regulation and regulatory clarity, it's coming and it will affect the crypto prices negatively and will tread on your wallet.
Here's a suggestion: you'll have more luck creating something new in reference to an old things, if you don't make the entire premise about attacking the old thing. Lots of people clearly enjoy April Fool's day. Let them enjoy it, there's no need to label them as cringe.

Instead, why not put this on a new day, say April 2nd? I would get behind that. April 1st is for joking around and having fun, April 2nd is for being good and kind to each other. Both sides of humanity are important.

The Netherlands has a variation of this for newly built properties. The prices for new properties are controlled, but the prices for second hand properties are not. If you win the lottery, you get to buy a newly built house for like €250k, which will them immediately jump in price to €450k, because that’s the price you can now sell it for.

It’s completely bonkers…
Copying isn't theft, it's why it's a different word.

And it's especially not theft when the products are made and sold in a western country that has a much more sane patent system than the US: if your product isn't registered in Germany, any German person can legally create their own copy for the German market, as rightly they should. And then the US can put an import ban in place for those products because if they were sold in the US they would be infringing on the patent holder's right to market. Again, as rightly they should.

And lo and behold, thus it came to pass, and no markets were actually impacted.

(and as fun, related trivia: look up the Samwer brothers. Because there is no such thing as international patent law, there is only "you get to register in every jurisdiction you want your brand protected in" and if you don't, then anyone is free to clone your product, because you gave them permission to do so. Whether you like that or not.)

I would also require that the credibility of actually carrying out the task of preventing aging and curing all diseases is actually not some sort of trick and is going to happen in a reasonable way. Probably somewhere pretty close to P(1-epsilon) would be required.
