Even many (larger) dogs aren't good pets: just like chimps, they'll viciously attack you (or your child) on a whim. I'm not sure why anyone wants a "pet" capable of such destructive power. Even cats can turn violent, but they're so small that they can't hurt people much if they go berserk. Same goes for the "toy" size dogs.
And to be clear I don't have a problem with helping drug addicts leave drugs, the difference is they should never be allowed to be left using them without any intervention.

So the police gets them, and gets the dealer then they either get treated or prisoned depending if its their first time or they are actually addicted.

Partially. But obviously lots of other factors are important.

Pumped hydro isn’t any cheaper fundamentally per kWh than lithium cells. Tesla currently sells Megapacks with a high profit margin, but the bulk supplier cell level lithium iron phosphate cells are about half the price per kWh as a finished pumped hydro station (which is to say that the fundamental technology is cheap, even if demand is so high right now that pumped hydro might be cheaper than Megapacks).
Actually I reached out to you asking for a comment which I could add to the article, not for your technical support.

There is no such thing as "a safe supply of drugs". Whether the street drugs are produced in a quality-controlled way or not, it is well-known that use of the substances has negative outcomes in health and occupational functioning.

Direct sale of street narcotics would only be another harm reduction practice, similar to "safe use sites". But no harm reduction practice makes the harm "safe".

The political double-speak around this is very similar to "clean coal"; it implies a strong position ("coal is clean") while offering an escape hatch if challenged ("coal pollution mitigation, otherwise known as clean coal, reduces greenhouse emissions when coal is used as a fuel"). Similarly as there is no "clean coal" in reality, there is no "safe supply of drugs".

When we take deceiving loaded words like "safe" out of the equation, it becomes harder to argue against substance control, even if seen as prohibition. While it is evident that street drug crisis in the US has been mishandled, if restricting the access of these substances (or "prohibition") was done correctly, it would benefit society. Particularly, the prohibition would benefit society more if it was not mainly enforced through criminalization of street drugs, but instead through teaching, rehabilitation, and prevention.

In contrast, "safe" drug harm is an oxymoron. And it's very ineffective to even discuss anything on a double-speak premise. We should instead focus on fixing the root problem of drug use, rather than be distracted by harm reduction, especially when it's been politicized so much.
In free wheeling evolutionary processes, seeing that a process works is enough, but when some level of intentionality can be applied, I feel the group that explains /why/ a process works can offer more to the community for improvement, or realize when all the gains have been found and new avenues must be pursued.

Cheap enough!

According to https://harmreductionjournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1... mass spec machines are between $5000 and $1m, and commercial labs offer services for between $5 and $100 per sample. Presumably the capital investment of buying a mass spec machine and hiring a technician drop the cost per sample drop lower than $5, as it seems businesses are able to stay profitable charging that amount.

According to Wikipedia, the budget for the safe injection site in the article is $1.2m initial investment and $500k/year operating cost to handle 175k injections per year. Even at $5 a sample that’s $875k a year. So mass spec is actually completely plausible, in both capital investment and operating cost, for the budget of a single injection site at the volume that injection site handles. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insite

That the conservative estimates and some upper bounds for gold standard mass spec are within the actual budgets of individual injection sites is, I feel, justification enough for my glib “cheap enough!” quip above. Of course, we may not need the gold standard. For the limited scope of identifying pharmaceutical chemicals in small doses, there may be cheaper processes that function just as effectively.
This seems like two users talking past each other.

How about reframing it :

Companies can not 'care' about anything because companies are legal vehicles that do not have agency.

The individual people that make up the company obviously care about these things to varying extents. I highly doubt it's literally zero for any company >100 employees.

Although it's theoretically possible for all the 'care' to perfectly cancel each other out (e.g. half the employees for and half against something) it seems unlikely in Apple's case.

In a word, deregulation. If you live in one of the 35 states that separated generation, transmission and retail distribution, your bill is about $40 a month more.

The idea was to create competition for power generation to lower prices. What actually happened was surge pricing and higher prices.

"Average retail electricity costs in the 35 states that have partly or entirely broken apart the generation, transmission and retail distribution of energy into separate businesses have risen faster than rates in the 15 states that have not deregulated..."

One of the many reasons I decided to move out of California was because of these thinly veiled cash grabs in the guise of benefit to the consumer.
The other key thing is SAs power use is far smaller than NSW, Victoria and Queensland. So while they can shutdown their coal stations and import if there is a shortfall, those bigger states can't.

For example as I type this Queensland is generating about 4300MW of solar, SA is generating about 1300MW of solar, but SA gets all the plaudits for being green.

My experience suggests that building a software business often involves re-producing time-consuming things that others have built in a simpler way. Oftentimes, you do less thinking about the problem/solution than writing the code.

So, for some software "I write software" can be better than type 1 and type 2. What if that were the case for the majority of software that would make money?

However, I propose that this doesn't matter, since another type of engineer is higher than these 3 types.

Type 4 - Principal Engineer - I write software and I have Virtue: I get to speak words; maybe you can speak too but I won't listen, but I'll make sure you don't think negatively (enough) of me to try to reduce my Virtue. For example, I'll spend time carefully listening and explain truthfully how things are complicated until our time to chat is up.

> The world always makes sense. But it can be confusing.

I just don't agree with this at all. I think its folly to assume the world will always make sense. As humans we seek to make sense of things, but not everything fits into our cognitive little boxes.
Just a heads up: "crypto Jew" is also an antisemitic buzz word, which is why I suspect the linked article says "hidden" instead.

> The article states that to update SWR `cache-control` headers you need to use the `headers` property of `vercel.json`[3]. This is for changing the headers of static assets, not Vercel Function responses (Serverless or Edge Functions).

Then why does [3] say "This example configures custom response headers for static files, Serverless Functions, and a wildcard that matches all routes.", if it isn't for changing the headers on Serverless Functions? (EDIT: my bet would've been that its adding the headers outgoing from the CDN, not from the function, but your claim above contradicts that too)
I've been reading this paper with pseudocode for various transformers and finding it helfpul: https://arxiv.org/abs/2207.09238

"This document aims to be a self-contained, mathematically precise overview of transformer architectures and algorithms (not results). It covers what transformers are, how they are trained, what they are used for, their key architectural components, and a preview of the most prominent models."
Basically. I would expect a system where this happens over time would be more palatable though.

You would though. It's physics.

Like if Mars is reachable by travel though space in one minute, that reachable Mars is inextricably in the past of the Earth that you start from.

If you don't travel through space, then you literally have the ability to jump between points in space-time and are sort of obviously traveling through time.
> This is all volunteer labor. Anyone can be a volunteer if they'd like. Wikipedia encourages mistakes (or "boldness") and assumes that due to a network of volunteers and the density of interest, an article will eventually become better.

The accuracy of an article depends on the effort (or ability) for contributors to check facts more than its "density of interest". In other words, experts find this easier than amateurs, and for most topics I think many would rather see no article than a crap one. Also worth a conjecture that the interest in writing cannot possibly always be equal to the interest in reading for all topics. If true this is perhaps the ugliest aspect of Wikipedia.

> Programming docs in open source often have errors. Do the volunteers not deserve the "privilege" of offering their time for free?

This is a non sequitur and I don't think I can answer it. What I will say is that the code review process for a pull request usually includes making sure docs are updated accordingly. Much of that documentation might even be automatically generated from structured comments and validated by passing tests such as in API docs. Humans still of course review after that which mistakes even less likely especially since everyone involved is writing about their own work.

1st, there's no true definition of what intelligence is. Right now it's a moving target. Moving targets are hard to hit. Defining intelligence will take time. How can we create what we can't define?

2, we are getting close to processing speed limits and the amount of easy to process data. Yet, AGI is nowhere near. LLM's are remarkable but it's data processing at scale. It's no smarter than my word processor. It's useful but it's not AIG.

3, there's no defining theory that will get us to AGI.We don't know how to get there. What we have is wishful thinking that says we'll be there soon. In any project the early percentage towards our task is relatively easy. The last X% is hard. I think we are underestimating how much time and effort it takes to complete the project of AIG. We have only scratched the surface of it. The 80/20 rule is real.

AIG reminds me of the search for ETs. We feel we are close to meeting an ET. Some even believe we have encountered them. But we have 0 evidence that they exist. It's been burned in to our culture by fiction writers but nothing in our real life experience says they exist. Similarly we feel we will meet AIG soon. We might get to AIG but I think we are kidding ourselves that it will be here soon.

The real danger is the misuse of the AI we have by people. That really scares me.
Yes, $21 a month is cheap given how much I use it.
Slightly related: Netlify has/had an even bigger problem around caching, and not just caching.

I set `cache-control: public,max-age=2592000,immutable` on my SPAs' assets as they're hashed and should be immutable.

But Netlify somehow doesn't atomically swap in a new version: say my index.html referenced /assets/index.12345678.js before and is updated to reference /assets/index.87654321.js instead, there's a split second where Netlify could serve the new index.html referencing /assets/index.87654321.js, while /assets/index.87654321.js returns 404! So users accessing the site in that split second may get a broken site. Worse still, the assets directory is covered by the _headers rule adding the immutable, 30-day cache-control header, and Netlify will even add it to the 404 response... The result is user's page is broken indefinitely until I push out a new build (possibly bricking another set of users) or they clear the cache, which isn't something the average joe should be expected to do.

I ended up having to write a generator program to manually expand /assets/* in _headers to one rule for each file after every build. And users still get a broken page from time to time, but at least they can refresh to fix it. It really sucks.

It's always sad to see dialects die, however unless you're trying to decrease migration between neighboring countries (such as Israel speaking Hebrew) it seems like a good thing. In the case of New Mexico, it's a US state and I don't see an advantage in keeping it around.
You don't just land in a place like that with SWE skills and suddenly affect change. Ordinary SWEs don't have enough leadership or management skills to understand the problems and coordinate the process of building a solution.

A single person has only 8h a day (usually) to do anything, a great leader has many more hours than that. I'd say even FAANG employees who are top at their field aren't necessarily good with this skillset.

Drew Pavlou, an anti CCP student activist from Queensland had this stunt pulled on him in London, and wound up on the Met's bad books back in July '22. The police seem to think a precautionary principle here is to pull in the swatted individual, one hopes over time their name gets flagged as being targeted, not perpetrating.

He'd previously been in legal strife for organising anti CCP protests at uni. Chinese state funding of tertiary education in Australia and the influx of fee paying Chinese students is a significantly important economic and political/strategic issue in Oz.

Vercel scares the hell out of me - their previous handling of that runaway bill of 6k was atrociuos. They basically blamed the user and only handled it after it gained traction on social media.

Beyond that, they do a lot of things with web, while having very little moat as a company. By that I mean they're involved in a lot of front-end libraries, articles, projects, etc. a lot of which they incorporate into their platform. Which is why everyone praises them for their ease-of-use, but anybody should know that there's a reckoning that comes after the honeymoon period when all this has to be maintained. And that stuff gets to be very expensive.

Which would be fine if they were Google with a really wide moat but they're not. They're a thin layer above the big three cloud providers. It's too easy for a dev to just pack up and move to AWS where they're not paying for the overhead once the project becomes serious. It also doesn't help that they're not seen as a serious solution because of things like their poor customer service.
Should it be a refund (instead of a tax break)?

I'm leaning towards the refund since it effectively gives everyone the "same final price"
Sigh. As someone who’s had success in 12-step recovery since 1998, I find these sorts of “debunkings” incredibly disappointing. Firstly the measurement of success rate entirely misses the point. The 12-step view is that there isn’t a “once and done” cure. If I were to use an analogy it’s more like having lifelong diabetes. You gotta keep taking that insulin. It’s the continuity that forestalls the disease/ keeps you in remission.

Yes, 12-step programs have issues, and a big one is the whole “higher power”/god thing. Maybe this is more of an issue in the USA which is far more religious than other countries. But even that is addressable for atheist 12-steppers. I should know - I am one.

I agree with your disagree.

The very idea of "making sense" is a human construct. The universe doesn't care about making sense - to us or otherwise, except to the extent that we are part of it, and some of us care. There's no magical rule that says "the world" should, will, or even can "make sense".

The board that he shows at 0:41 is the 4th prototype, aka the board that is now shipping to developers and backers.

The board he shows later in the video is the older prototype, which does have a different layout. I'm not sure why he uses this older prototype through most of the video, but I suspect that it's because he already had this footage and didn't want to (or need to) shoot that section over again, just to show a board with a few pieces in a different place.
