I don’t even think it’s a forecasting issue at this point. It’s a lack of a plan B.

In this time they could have launched new products that make the most of available supply. They didn’t.

They could have recognised the hit that their b2b-first distribution model has had on their reputation and tried to make amends. They didn’t.

They could have coordinated with the alt-board suppliers to make “RPi approved” models for the Rock Pi, Orange Pi etc as a stop gap. They didn’t.

Hell, they could have bumped costs up a bit to spend on mitigating supply issues, reduce demand and burn scalpers. They didn’t.

So instead they just keep promising, just keep delaying, and we keep waiting. Even if their supply issues are through no fault of their own, it feels like they aren’t even trying.

Exactly. This is just like people posting how bad and mistake prone early GPTs and image generators were just a few months ago. It’s way too early to say how far agents can go. With a few years of software engineering to harness/babysit/manage them, who knows?
Not what I'm seeing from the linked map -- I see a 179 in the US and doubt the average is >180 in Europe? Eye-balling it, Europe looks about comparable to the East-Coast numbers, maybe +10.

Also, afaict that map shows recent, "live", up-to-date numbers, I assume seasons and day/night play a big role there.
I haven't seen it yet, but they've been working on a big project in BCI + VR, so I'm assuming that's mostly what it was about.

Our team used to work in metaverse tech, and now we work in BCI (for sleep), so I'm have some experience with both areas.
I agree the research doesn't conclusively show direction, but in my experience so many psychiatry correlates are chicken/egg. Depressed people tend to get less physical activity because of their depression symptoms, but too little activity can be quite bad for one's mood. Lots of bad cycles with positive (in a dynamical systems sense) feedback connections.

You didn't say anything entirely incorrect, I think! But the important bit when it comes to talking about sizes of infinity is that, while both irrationals and rationals are smaller than the reals in one sense (they're both proper subsets), they're very different in another sense: you actually can index the rationals by the natural numbers whereas you can't do the same with the irrationals. That's the much more interesting sense in which the rationals are smaller (or, alternatively, that reals are bigger). The rationals are smaller than the irrationals in this sense as well, despite not being a subset of them at all.
It does! But the only way this makes sense is if you treat the expense required to build it as a capital expenditure, which was my point.
Ah, that's fine then!

Furthermore, when you zoom in on girls, the relationships are not small: girls who spend more than 4 hours a day on social media have two to three times the rate of depression as girls who spend an hour or less. The common refrain “correlation does not prove causation” is certainly relevant here, but I showed that when you bring in the three other kinds of studies, the case for causation gets quite strong.

I know from long experience that saying "I got this far in the article and I can't be bothered to read the rest" is a good way to get hated on, but give me a freaking break. You have to first ask why those girls are spending more than four hours a day on social media.

The obvious inference is that the girls who spend less than an hour a day on social media have full lives and the ones spending so much time there it's like an unpaid part-time job have vacuous lives and they are trying to fill the void with something that can't do it.

Social media no doubt exacerbates their issues but, no, it doesn't cause them. Their lives are screwed up and excessive use of social media is more like a symptom.

A description of the unix file system but using tag vernacular instead of the more common forms.

a file is a generic unformed array of bytes, the application can store anything it wants in this array. files are selected via tags, a file can have any number of tags, however there is a limitation that each tag can only reference one file. tag prefixes are use to group and match common tags.

Honestly, this is the right answer. I have a HP ProDesk 300 G3 mini (the mini version of the server the OP is using) running home assistant, syncthing, a bunch of other random 24x7 stuff, and the "server", router, and PoE switch powering two Wifi APs is drawing a grand total of 9 watts*. It just doesn't seem worth the effort to try and make this more efficient.

I have, and that is how they wanted to communicate the needs of the application to the development team.

It was horrid. Getting non sequitur snippets of requirements without the big picture, in this weird almost English, but not, language that looked like it was desperately trying to copy the structure of test code, but without anything executable, losing the entire reason you might choose to accept the tradeoffs of documenting your requirements in code as promoted by actual BDD.

Not only did it not add value, it took away value.
> In sum, we conclude that:

> Google’s unauthorized digitizing of copyright-protected works, creation of a search functionality, and display of snippets from those works are non-infringing fair uses.

> The purpose of the copying is highly transformative, the public display of text is limited, and the revelations do not provide a significant market substitute for the protected aspects of the originals.

> Google’s commercial nature and profit motivation do not justify denial of fair use.
> Google’s provision of digitized copies to the libraries that supplied the books, on the understanding that the libraries will use the copies in a manner consistent with the copyright law, also does not constitute infringement.

> Nor, on this record, is Google a contributory infringer.

So does this apply to AI ? Does this main things like github copilot are fair use?
> But how does that make it not perfectionism? Having the wrong priorities is in no way inconsistent with perfectionism.

It's not perfectionism because you can't even succeed at making the perfect part without more of the whole defining what perfect even looks like. The requirements evolve/emerge as the whole does.

It's just misguided premature effort, but there's a very strong force driving this mistake - it's easier and more fun to trim the sails than build the rest of the ship.
The old, original version, of the Journey (into?) Imagination ride with Figment at EPCOT had the best explanation for creativity that I ever saw.

It didn't so much say that creativity as most think of it is a myth, but I'm convinced that and ride wear / decay combined killed the ride and pressure from executives never let the message it did say get said the same way ever again.

Creativity is just the result of all the environmental exposure, all of the ideas, influences, muses, and necessity needs combining through the analog supercomputer that is the human mind to result in an output that it finds either a solution or interesting enough to share with others. That's all creativity is. The same thing that we're trying to approach today with giant info-network models, curated data, and a loose prompt.

At 63, I have seen it and heard it all before. Tenants paying rent way in excess of a mortgage, indeed paying someone else's mortgage, has, continues and until this is changed will continue to be the major factor which impoverishes renters here and in other free market economies. The refrain 30 - 40 years ago was investing in a property to provide your pension income, the idea being that you took your pension pot and purchased a property outright to let and live off that income. This has morphed into scraping together 20- 30 % of the purchase price and tenants paying rents are your oysters, but unlike the oyster, tenants have no protection against the new parasite class of investor/ landlord. Probably it will be the same 30 - 40 years hence.

> Amortized software development costs (we discourage capitalizing these costs in the first place)

Emphasis mine. They're saying if you amortize your other software dev as R&E (stuff that isn't ops/infra/etc. and thus considered COGS) then it doesn't count towards your COGS. But then what they're pretty clearly saying in the parenthetical is that they don't recommend doing that in the first place, which implies that you have a choice.

> Income taxes are also punishingly high - the top rate of tax (52%) kicks in under 100k

Wow -- got to make up for that famously lax corporate income tax, I guess! Which provides an interesting window into transnational company exploits. Ireland's decided to place more tax burden on individuals vs companies (which could have good reasons and could in theory even be net-neutral domestically, just shifting tax burden around between companies and their shareholders.) Now a giant tech company decides to domicile as much of itself as possible in Ireland, while themselves remaining US citizens and residents, since our tax code taxes individuals far more lightly than Ireland.

"This is a perfectly balanced game!"
Consider it from a measure theory point of view, at least colloquially. If you could assign a mass of 1 (lb/kg/g/whatever) to the reals and separate them into two piles: rational and irrational then weigh again. The irrational pile would weigh 1 and the rationals, 0. So yes you took something out, but also in some sense, it doesn't matter.

The problem with all this is that performance optimization is nothing without measurement. How many items are in your list / map in the regular case? Do you know? And if the number is small, how fast does Map go compared to a list with that many elements?

Oh this function is slow? How often is it called? If it’s only called once, maybe it’s fine.

Performance optimization work should be guided by real data, and knowledge of your users. What features matter the most? Are your users on network constrained devices? Are they running out of disk space? Are GC pauses a problem? What is the normal / maximum size of the input to your software?

Without knowing this stuff, you can’t focus your attention on the right things re: performance. You’ll end up spending time and energy making the wrong things fast with marginal benefit.

That sounds nice, but you’re really just engaging in the life long human tradition of death denialism. Avoiding the finitude of your life may seem like a nice philosophy, but it may ultimately be giving you reasons to not make the most of this life.

In existentialism, we embrace the knowledge that our lives have no extrinsic meaning, and acknowledge that the only meaning that can be found is by living a worthwhile life. Meaning is subjective. The universe does not give a shit about your craving for meaning or purpose.

OK, the phrase about the exhausting the capacity of the land had that vibe. Because there’s literally no evidence that this is what happened.

Setting the criteria at the block level is an absurd strawman argument, guaranteed to yield the intended result.

A block of people better mowing their lawns and painting their houses obviousl costs something and does add a bit of value, but almost nothing is purchased at that level.

For example, the strong conservation, good services, open space preservation, etc. I cited above are all made at the town level. Town A doesn't invest in those, saves the costs, and Town B does invest and costs more, and creates more value. But because it isn't the block, he puts it on the "public" side of his ledger.

That's proof of nothing but George's willingness to paint the picture he and you want.

Plus, if you really want to create value on land, you do development. Zoning maximum density REDUCES the value of the properties. I could make enough to retire if I could take down my house and put up a condo unit. But it is 2-acre zoning, and I can't, and it was cheaper to buy.

I'm also a heluva lot less concerned once zoning density is high enough that there is effectively no ecosystem, it's just suburban hardscape, so maybe under quarter-acre zoning, it won't have much environmental effect as the flora & fauna are already pretty much gone, so development has much less impact beyond the heat island effect. But I don't know as much about the mix of buying/building/taxes/investment in those or city zones.
Yes to all of it. pg decided years ago that if it was permissible to upvote for any reason, it was permissible to downvote for any reason. All that matters is that signal gets separated from noise - by any definition of noise - as aggressively as possible.

Also downvoting is preferred to replying because replies tend to either lead to arguments or else pollute the thread with uninteresting tangents.

In my experience, if you manage to get more than two downvotes and it persists, or you've been flagged, it's obvious why. Everything else tends to either be corrected or else settle at 0.
"What do y'all think about these types of exploits, will LLM's always be vulnerable to this sort of attack?"

They release patches around this. GPT-4 has been about half as vulnerable to it. Downvoting helps to train it, and they do have an internal team specialised towards breaking it.

Part of the reason there is a very public release is to gather up all these exploits as well.
