Depends on whether you view humane business practices as a cost-center of a value-center though - in pure economic terms.

This is an unsolved question, because when you get down to it our businesses are still run by humans, and humans haven't changed much in the last 10,000 years from when we lived in tribes in Africa and were predated by large carnivores.

Look at the utterly insane culture which develops in places like LinkedIn and tell me that all executives are making calculated decisions with no ego, just efficiency. They're not - they're clearly not.

The fear of AI capitalism is the fear that it'll do to everyone what currently is done to the working class, given the opportunity. That's a realistic fear! But it's not guaranteed, because one of the significant arguments to stop abusing workers is that when you do, they're more efficient and more productive. Consider the delta between what the data says about WFH home and the complete conviction some managers have that despite this they've got to drag people back into the office (Blizzard Entertainment is a good example of manifestly creating problems because you won't let a bad idea go on this front).
Second. All of this about productivity gains too. One of the dumbest idea I've seen floated is a "robot tax". Because what's a robot? If a new kind of light bulb has an MTBF 10 to 100x better than incandescents, you've reduced the labor of replacing street lights by 90 to 99%. That's a far bigger hit than anything GPT is doing to me, but it won't get covered under a "robot" tax. What about telecom replacing horseback couriers? All technologies effect the nature and scope of labor. Compartmentalization only does one thing; let you fight over definitions to pick winners and losers.

And how would we make a tax that covers all the productivity gains indiscriminately, without pointless compartmentalization?

Well, it's a tax on corporate profits of course. Basic general taxes that we already have.

> Imagine people who love driving must always be forced to use exactly one tyre enforced by the manufacturer

Actually that is exactly what happens.

Ok, maybe not one tyre, but a small number.

The car manufacturers all certify their vehicles against a small set of tyres. That's a fact.

Its a necessity because choice of tyres touches almost every part of the certification process ranging from fuel economy figures to NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) specs and parameters and many many other things.

Look inside your fuel-cap flap, you'll typically find a label there showing you a list of tyre specifications, of which maybe only one or two are actually certified by the manufacturer for your exact car model. The should of course also normally be found in the owners manual too.

In addition, the higher up the car spectrum you go, the tighter the definitions become. For example, the likes of Porsche actually do name precise brand and model for tyres.

Sure you can go off-piste with your tyre selection. But the manufacturer will likely take great delight at voiding your warranty. And your insurance might have a thing or two to say too since you are going against manufacturers guidelines. Finally of course the on-board computer calibration will be all off too.

I suspect you have the common misconception about how hearing loss works. Impared hearing doesn't mean the volume is turned down and needs to be increased. Often times, impared hearing means you can hear some frequencies perfectly fine, but are deaf to some frequencies (usually higher frequencies)

If you are missing hair cells in your ear for a certain frequency, hearing aids can't make you hear them no matter how much they increase the volume for those frequencies. Best they can do is pitch shift them so you hear them at a different frequency.

I don't understand what you mean here. In what way do you consider Coinbase a brokerage? Users on Coinbase can trade directly on its exchange and pay trading fees. Restricting the exchange to only brokers would mean that the middlemen ("brokers") would now pay the trading fees and pass that cost onto their customers, plus some brokerage fee (which means a higher total fee for users). The broker-intermediated trades are necessarily more costly than the direct trades.

RF electronics, systems and control are normally considered as black arts in the electronics community due to the "distributed" nature of RF signal waves propagation. Most of the RF literatures even by the veteran experts are still working in the obsolete old school framework without regards for the other improvements in the field for example software-defined radio (SDR). For those who want to know modern approach to RF systems design please check these two books by Earl McCune and Huseyin Arslan [1][2].

However something very important is missing from many of these RF books including the books mentioned above. The most important thing is how to reliably and accurately detect, measure and control the impedance of RF signals. This topic is so pertinent that the terminology of "impedance mismatched" is even widely used outside of the RF domains or circles. The mechanism for detecting, measuring and controlling impedance mismatched is relatively unknown outside RF community that are called load-pull and source-pull. Coincidentally these happened to be part of my research study topics about 15 years back and it's a kind of solved problem now even for RF wideband signals that are common in modern RF system set up. Spoiler alert, to do it properly it cannot be done in analog domain but need to done in digital domain. Looking back on why the solution is not popular although it is being openly published is quite a mystery to me personally. Perhaps this what Dijkstra lamenting why his solutions to OS problems were oblivious to most OS implementors was perhaps because he is not from MIT.

The solution is not without its limitation because real-world RF signals have baseband, fundamental and several harmonics and the solution does cover the baseband due to the limitation of direct conversion transceiver being used. But now since companies like AD and TI have managed to manufactured fully digital high frequency ADC/DAC transceiver architecture that the limitation kind of disappeared for good.

Here in the UK, plant based milks are typically more expensive than cow’s milk, particularly if you go for the well-known brands (Alpro, Oatly, etc)

Typically in a corner shop you’re paying around £2 for 1 litre of plant milk, compared to £1.25 for 2 pints (1.13L) of cow’s milk.

That doesn’t seem to have dampened demand for plant milks, however!

Comp doesn't have to be high to be aligned. The reason it is so high is because of the massive risk and uncertainty of replacing a CEO. There are thousands of people at Google who would be perfectly fine CEOs and be willing to do it for small fraction of what Sundar Pichai costs, but how do you find them? Hiring is such an inexact process that there's a large chance that the guy you chose won't be one of those competent people. And a bad CEO at a company the size of Google can cost hundreds of billions of dollars. So this gives a competent CEO leverage to raise his comp to very high levels. When Pichai asks for $200 million, he knows that the board will give it to him because it just makes financial sense. They're not going to risk hundreds of billions of dollars on a potential bad CEO when they can pay their current CEO 0.1% of that to stay. Essentially CEOs are able to hold the board hostage.
Store procedures and functions are very good for many things. I am not claiming you should put all your business logic in the database, like old-time Oracle consultants wanted (for self-serving reasons), but some calculations are better handled in a single place, instead of being reimplemented in different parts of the stack, or stacks, given that it is common to write a project using one framework and language, and then migrate to another one.

The only reason to avoid SP is that you don't know any SQL and your ORM can't write the function calls, so you can't call them.

Which is a general complaint I have about modern software development: many things are done in convoluted ways because some developers don't know SQL and don't want to learn it.

It seems more clear to me that governments will struggle to get compliance for any such measures at scale, based on attitudes since.
> ... and get par back immediately rather than having to wait 30 years to collect

The hubris in Big Tech right now is truly pathetic and imho a sign of a real disconnect with a sense of meaning and purpose to human life.

Many people in the developed world, especially tech people are now living online and spend the majority of their lives looking at a screen, chatting to each other on slack and via forums like this and now comparing their intellectual abilities to that of super computers running a language model of extreme complexity, which is basically the sum total of all human technical and intellectual output. All popular LLMs exist because of this online universe we’ve created.

What the online life does is actually reduce one to an “autonomous agent”. You really become ChatGPT when you live this way. Go out for a night of dancing, practice martial arts, paint a real panting with oil on canvas, cook a nice meal, smell and taste it, or hike a mountain, then come back and try tell yourself you’re a LLM, it’s completely preposterous but it does make sense if you live an almost purely “intellectual and online existence”. Which is the world we’ve created in 2023. Science and religion are now merging and it is said science will bring us “immortality” soon through AI advancement and many would immediately upload their brain to a computer if given the chance.

It completely makes sense to forget what you actually are and it makes sense to reduce yourself to “software running on hardware”, or a statistical model, a person who clicks like and dislike on social media most of the day, you become a model trainer etc. Even if there is some truth to the former statements, it’s stupid to discount the rest of existence because you can’t instantly translate text into many languages or whatever “emergent property” is displayed in some complex system.

The intellect is something which should be consulted or used for survival or problem solving, to help one get back to enjoying life and that what’s most important.
Intellect is not something one should strive to actually become.

Correct, but the "more than 60%" is including all forms of rent control. My main point is someone can be paying $3500 a month for a one bedroom apartment and it be considered a rent controlled unit.

Edit - put another way, there's a sort of implication that if a unit is "rent controlled" then it is cheap, and this is not necessarily the case in the SF rental market.

And then you say you can pull the plug but some dictator of the Russia/China/N Korea types who already run state hacking operations will go for it and say here's the nuke codes, figure how I can rule the world. I think it's worth talking about this.
