I appreciate the response. I might just not be the target of your blog, in your given example:

>You're at the home center and see three power tool batteries on the shelf - all are 18V and rated at 3Ah, but they're different physical sizes. Which is better?

>With a bit of research on your phone,

Personally, myself nor anyone I know who uses power tools more than just buying a 12v drill once, would do this research on our phone in the aisle of Home Depot. If I see three batteries all rated the same, it would be a price decision or a form factor one ("bigger must be better"). That could be where my disconnect is - I've never once thought about what kind of internal battery cells are being used.

>With many more options available, I'm sure many users will pair cheaper brand name batteries with pro-level tools and expect everything to work well together.

This happens now across the consumer and business space. I have clients at work who buy a cheaper usb-c dock for their laptops, because why is the Dell official one $250? Some users might run into issues with it while others in their company don't. Some blame the dock, some blame their old laptop, some curse that their company didn't buy them Apple devices. The truth is always somewhere in the middle, sometimes it is the dock but sometimes it isn't. Dell doesn't care - they made $100B last year and they'll just tell you to buy the official Dell dock even if it is your old computer causing the issues.

But I, and everyone I know, would hate it if no one made those cheaper usb-c docks and just limited our choices to the $250 options.

The math behind the market of the batteries also doesn't interest anyone I know. We don't care how / why Milwaukee or Makita runs deals, we're just mad that we're spending so much. More options, and cheaper options, have never been a bad thing in a market.
For Paris, it poorly tells you where to enter stations. It gives exit as street names whereas Paris metro exits use numbers. It doesn’t tell you where you should stand in the train to easily grab the next train. It doesn’t show if there is an incident on the line it’s suggesting you take. It’s extremely annoying going back and forth between the solutions it’s suggesting.

Alchemists were doing research 600 years ago but they never shared their results with others and used arcane syntax to record those results which nobody else could understand. This didn't lead to much progress in the field of chemical knowledge, because it was just continual reinvention of the wheel.

The scientific (and then, industrial) revolution didn't begin until researchers started sharing their results in open literature form, or at conferences, or within bodies like Britain's Royal Institution. Dissemination of knowledge is absolutely part of science.

Similarly, a fundamental necessity in science is independent replication of results, and that's definitely not possible with closed secretive research done in the alchemical mode.

The food (or just literal "oil") sense came first, though; unctuous has always been a sensory texture word. It wasn't always a positive quality, mind you; it's just one of several normal words you could use to call something "oily" in Latin. From Etymonline:

> late 14c., "oily, having a greasy or soapy feeling when touched," from Old French unctueus, from Medieval Latin unctuosus "greasy," from Latin unctus "act of anointing," from past participle stem of unguere "to anoint" (see unguent).

> Figurative sense of "blandly ingratiating" is first recorded 1742, perhaps in part with a literal sense, but in part a sarcastic usage from unction in the meaning "deep spiritual feeling" (1690s), such as comes from having been anointed in the rite of unction. Related: Unctuously; unctuousness.

(Which is to say: there are probably Bible translations from before the sarcastic personality sense developed in the 1700s, that use the word "unctuous" as an adjective for the same effect that we'd today use the word "anointed.")

It's kind of fascinating that the word "unctuous" has acquired positive connotations with respect to food, from starting off as a relatively neutral descriptor. I think it's maybe a rare reversed example of the common connotative shift that happens over time, where if there's a "high [language]" word (usually a foreign import that sounds fancy and technical at the time of its introduction) and a "low [language]" word (usually a native or much older borrowed word) for something, then the "low [language]" word will acquire negative or rude connotations to speakers of that language. E.g. the difference in propriety in English between writing "I'm eating pork" vs "I'm eating pig"; or between writing "feces" vs "dung."

We are waking up to the fact that these AIs are really more like juicers- they extract the "good stuff" ie replicable patterns, after which the original data is no longer needed. All the free stuff we put onto the web is what make GPTs so smart. So of course the media titans will move to block the juicing of their sweet sweet IPs.

True, government is an ecosystem. If you kill the sparrow but spare the locust you may do more harm than good.
> Do you mean that improving documentation helped get customers?

It probably did, but no that's not what I mean, sorry :-). By "rewriting support" I mean adding features that allowed you to rewrite arbitrary network traffic, rather than just viewing it (as in the very first PoC).
I recently watched a talk by a Registered Nurse on a topic she calls "assertive empathy". It's a bit long at 41 minutes[0], but the real world examples were particularly interesting to me.

An example that runs throughout the talk involves a young man who is verbally abusive and physically threatening to the nursing staff. His behavior is causing them real difficulty in just doing their jobs of assisting with his recovery. The solution? Demonstrate empathy ("I understand that what you're going through is hard and we're here to help.") but be assertive and set boundaries ("But you must show us the same level of respect we show you. We won't tolerate abuse."). By holding that line while continuing to show care, she eventually catalyzed a change in his behavior toward them. This assertive empathy is seen as the height of respect by this patient who might not feel respected anywhere else in his life.

Having been hospitalized myself, I know just how amazing a good nurse can be. I think the world would be a better place if we all learned more about human interaction from experienced nurses.

Huh. On the face of it, the way Chopra defines these are fairly simple, yet powerful way to make sense of this.

… but, I am not sure it is complete.

For example, the way Chopra defined sympathy and empathy is the way psychologists define cognitive empathy and affective empathy. It implies that sympathy is something else all together. (The way I learned sympathy in the colloquial sense is more along the lines of virtue signaling, or at least a show of solidarity)

As for Chopra’s definition of compassion, I don’t think it adequately distinguishes it from pity. Furthermore, I have experienced compassion in a form that was not about relieving suffering (not exactly) … admittedly though, this is gettin to into the Buddhist view of things.

Seriously? Replacement Theory?
Parents want what’s best for their own kids. A large population of impoverished non-English speaking refugees takes massive amounts of attention and resources from the school to cater to. That takes away attention and resources from the kids who are already there.

Also, studies confirm that kids are highly influenced by their peers. Rich Americans are highly skeptical of what values and behaviors their kids will pick up from poor people. In my country this is so well accepted that we don’t even bother to hide it. But I think rich Americans basically act consistent with that premise even if it’s taboo to say it out loud. It’s an important part of why people move to exclusive suburbs.

Interesting note. I wonder where's the cutoff - when exactly does "opening connections" become "abusing the network" - two connections? Two dozen? A thousand?

I always assumed network data is network data. I don't see the difference between sending millions of packets of data to stream a video and to scan a network. The only difference is the intention - does that mean the act of learning someone's open ports is what's considered abuse? Or is it consent - the fact that you're learning about open ports that the server owner doesn't want you to know about?

New legal lessons from the age of AI. I wonder if we will start with the judges ruling that AI originated music can be copyrighted or not and whether AI trained on copyrighted music has to attribute its creations (to what?).
It depends :-). If it's Android (like a Fire stick) then in some cases, but all the Android caveats apply, e.g. you'll need root access to access traffic from apps that don't opt-in to debugging. For testing your own apps that's fine, but for reverse engineering HTTPS traffic you'll generally need a rooted device. In practice, if you don't already have a rooted phone on hand it's usually best to use an Android emulator on your computer, since most of those provide root access out of the box.

Even with root, certificate pinning can cause problems (as the sibling comment points out) but you can usually defeat that fairly easily: https://httptoolkit.com/blog/frida-certificate-pinning/.

For non-Android, HTTP Toolkit can't set it up for you automatically, but you can absolutely intercept _anything_ manually if you can configure it with your own HTTP proxy setting (fairly common) and add a trusted CA certificate (less common).
I have no words to describe how brutal it is. But my advice to finding opportunities at the moment especially in tech is seek more validation through oneself rather than through online validation, e.g. taking numerous advice from say random people on linkedin leads to a kind of survivorship bias effect. What works for others might not work for you, you have to discover within yourself before people discover you I have found in such a brutal market.
I only go to authorized distributors, where the brand themselves has approved the vendor to resell the cards. For game keys, I haven't done anything in bulk, but the best route is going directly to the publisher and getting permission, but this requires large order commitments and game prices fluctuate too much and can be super risky.

My real biggest risk though is when I open up my own store is chargebacks. Digital goods have a very very high chargeback risk, and I need to be clever on how I mitigate that!

The surface has been slowly bombarded long after the moons creation. So surface mining could have a very different elemental mix than subsurface mining.

> Italy has 58 million inhabitants. At 280k/year, together with the 8% of immigrants already there, such a policy would reduce native Italians to just 62% of their own country in a mere century. However, that ignores their sub-replacement fertility, which would probably see them become a minority in this time, in what used to be their country.

> Italians themselves evidently don't want their grandchildren to lose claim over the only country they can call home. But because their food doesn't pass some ridiculous purity test, the author believes their desire not to share Italy with the whole world is illegitimate?

This assumes that the migrants for that 100 years go live in decoupled ghettos and never integrate with the native population. Otherwise, what do you call someone born in Italy, to parents born in Italy, and their grandparents were born in Italy, Italy, Nigeria and Ukraine? I think most people, including in Italy, would happily call them Italian.
I can maybe try. What are the qualities we would want and not want in a neighbor?

A top priority I would think is we don't want someone who makes us feel unsafe, so there should be a penalty for such things as getting into fights and crime, perhaps petty crime especially.

On the other hand we do want someone that is friendly and helps take care of the commons, someone that helps clean up the street from litter and someone that arranges block parties to help people get to know each other.

There are also factors where people have strong preferences and compatibility is important, stuff like loud late night parties (it's reasonable to have neighborhoods both with and without) and communities where you have to have a perfectly manicured lawn (compare HOA).

I do personally think p2p is absolutely key to unlocking a future where users are not so beholden. It creates a much more connected web, versus the ultra-federalized model.

You’re right. I did a singular literature review myself during my masters degree, and much of what I learned in that period has been really beneficial, especislly the nuances.

But having an extensive summary or table of contents generated for you to begin your review? Priceless and would have saved me so much time especially on the junk papers. There was a demo recently at work where they built a pipeline to do literature reviews (topic was not scientific, more data analysis) and generate a report. It was genuinely incredible.
Prediction: regulation will require AI companies to have copyright licenses granted for training data. There will be legal models trained on datasets that have copyright granted, and illegal black market models trained on copyrighted materials. However, it will be really difficult to enforce and prove what data was used for training in each.
I don't buy the argument that "public" science is the only real science. You can define it that way, but I don't see any reason to.

"Public" science is just a special case of "restricted" science, such that the set of people the knowledge is restricted to is equal to the set of all humans.

I would suggest instead, if one really is interested in the topic of networking and port scanning, to set up a lab environment, either virtually, or physically.

Stuff like this is why I'm so allergic to law.

Imagine how much human resource is spent trying to preserve profits. Imagine your job is to be a lawyer that slows human progress for short term corporate profits.

Imagine you are a lawmaker and instead of fixing US medical, you are getting lunch with a lobbyist trying to make some variant of AI illegal.

All of those people have an existence that is bad for society. I imagine if you prioritize personal profits, its easy to do the job. Its much harder if your world view involves doing good things for society.
It's more about the fact that dot matrix / impact printers can print on duplicate/triplicate paper. There is carbon in the paper that leaves a mark on the layer underneath it.

You can't do that with a laser or inkjet printer unless you request multiple copies, and then you can't be sure all copies get made.
