Some of the ugliest episodes in human history were caused by people who believed their political positions were not political positions, but unarguable statements of the True and Good.
Some interconnects between separate organizations are jumbo but those tend to be PNI or secondary vlans.

The reason the Internet still runs exclusively on 1500 byte IP MTU is that any lower MTU in the path will effectively make the jumbo segments useless. This means any PMTU-D problems customers experience would have been unnecessary and avoidable by just using 1500 everywhere.

Many public IX's (peering exchanges) have a jumbo vlan but it's almost always separate from the standard one that only allows 1500 byte MTU.
They could use different models to test it. They could use common biases and test those.

I work of one of those “everything must be a stored procedure companies.” We are stuck with a single rdbms vendor and the company is perfectly ok with this.

Different developers have different skill levels and specialties but they know how to call stored procedures.

We have DB admins and a team of SQL specialists who optimize things and make sure everything meets standards.

Stored procedure code is source controlled just like other application code, just in different repos.

No there aren’t unit tests on this, but integration tests at the application level provide some coverage.

I realize there are downsides but they are generally acceptable. We aren’t really putting much if any domain logic in these stored procedures.
That is beside the point. My point is that detecting hallucinations seems like a very very hard problem.

The utility of it is there and has nothing to do with making up episodes instead of quoting the current one. Like you can ask it to write new episodes with specific settings and specific constraints. Hallucination is not the value add. Nobody is excited because it hallucinates. People are excited despite it since the other value add is too much.
> then Flow and TypeScript

Neither one is a different language. Both merely add type annotations to an otherwise pristine ECMAScript code base.

Typescript has some very few and minor and no longer needed things, like enums or namespaces, that need to be transpiled and are not part of ECMAScript. But again, those are minor and you no longer need them (since ES 2015 one can use modules instead of namespaces, and marked "as const" object literals instead of enums).

I know some people want to argue definitions, "different language" etc., but it's really just a completely optional tooling layer that you can just strip. It's also evaluated purely during development time, for type checks, the actual code that gets executed remains the ECMAScript part.

Whenever there are changes in a new Typescript version it's either purely within the type system, or they add type support for new ECMAScript features, those proposals that reached stage 3.

You could just imagine the type annotations in a different layer than the actual code, like in Photoshop. A layer used only by the IDE and code checking tools.

Microsoft added greatly to the confusion by putting the type checker, like eslint usable standalone or continuously queried through the IDE, and the type annotation files (.d.ts) generation and the completely optional .js file transformation AND .js file transpilation - backwards compatible JS code for earlier runtimes - into one tool. But all of those are different things. If your traget is "esnext" or you don't use JS features that your target runtime does not yet support transpilation is just removal of type annotations (except, enums, namespaces, which are no longer necessary and only exist for historical pre ES2015 reasons).
When cars were new, sometimes they shaped the front like a horse.

This feels like the same kind of thinking.

GPT4 beats most test takers in a wide variety of exams, so it's probably (I don't have access, just basing this on the reports) already better than most individual fresh graduates in those specific areas, just not at the "do literally everything by itself without supervision" level.

Constant testing is a must, it just doesn't look like the tests or education you'd give a human.

The simplicity is what I liked about taint mode - it didn’t purport to make anything safe for any particular context, you had to do that yourself. It just tracked strings that came in from outside Perl to make sure they didn’t get sent outside Perl again without being run through a regex. My main critique is that you don’t always want to use a regex to check safety, sometimes you want to try properly parsing a value before handing it off to another system. So in various places I’d end up untainting with a dot star regex.
It's truly an awesome project! The design is simple, yet beautiful and the illustrations are easy to understand.
I kinda like the way it looks the same on desktop and mobile. Nowadays we don't often see solutions like this, but the UX is great on both devices!
Why not both?

API Gateway + Lambda/OpenFaaS/Knative with rust handlers (low RAM/fast start), and typescript/react served via CDN.

with serverless platforms, it honestly matters not what language. Rust is just a convenience for compiling to arm for gravitron and low memory footprint. Languages that carry runtime bloat are less desired though for cloud functions.

We could use better documentation.

The standards are split over about 40 documents, but the overall structure is “Clause 7 in document A is mostly normative except for changes described in Clause 3.4.2 in document B”. The thing is that if you don’t refer to the standards you’re going to refer to garbled and obsolete information compared to what is in the standards.
What did you do before? We’re you a developer?
It's quite clear that the lack of diverter/deluge was a misstep, and the effect was unanticipated. So many things were damaged - launch cameras, that car, a pad-side oxygen tank, likely several of the rocket motors. You can see enormous chunks of concrete flung into the air on the recording - it's a miracle the damage was not worse. The rocket could easily have been destroyed on the pad, along with the entire launch complex. Given the obvious problems at the business end of the rocket it very possibly even cost the mission.

It was just a bad decision.
Can this actually be done today, or would a lot things have to be implemented in that chain?

Yeah, same for my prokaryotic molecular biology class. The questions were 100 percent theoretical, and you were even allowed to take the test at home. After the first one, it made sense why — the questions are totally ungooglable, and working with anyone else would’ve immediately polluted my mind and been obvious.

This was unambiguously the right thing to do, if you refused to vaccinate you should not have been in public spaces at the height of the pandemic, period.
Not a single life was saved from the vaccines, even though deaths from COVID were almost exclusively amongst the unvaccinated once a majority of the population received their shots? That’s an interesting take.
Just because you have access to powerful hardware doesn't mean others have as well. They have perfectly fine and adequate computers, until we started wrapping everything in electron.

Now they have to spend their hard-earned money, and contribute to global electronic waste and resource consumption issues, just to be able to participate in society and save face.

It's exactly your attitude that is at the root of this crisis.
Most web devs are familiar with javascript and typescript and are currently easily able to create products and solve problems for companies. They are much easier to find and hire compared to rust developers.

So why should a company hinder its own productivity by trying to find rust developers because rust is technically safer in some ways? Or risk ruining the culture of its currently functional developers by forcing them to use rust?
>The US has lost three wars

Are we calling Iraq and Afghanistan losses? Sure would be great if we established a liberal democracy in Afghanistan, but it seems like after Osama was killed, Americans mentally declared victory and we were just burning money and lives.

Iraq had their leader overthrown and a new government established. Its really hard to call that a loss, even if it wasnt a perfect liberal democracy like we want.

With respect, you're speaking with an unwarranted degree of confidence about a topic you do not seem very well versed in.

The key problem is that you're confusing two very different kinds of police operations. If the police get a tip off about a dangerous meth lab in your basement, then yes, they will execute a dawn raid, in which they storm your house, guns drawn. In that moment you simply comply, and any police overreach is sorted out later in litigation.

But this is absolutely not how warrants work in high corporate contexts. The police will arrive at reception, politely identify themselves and ask to be shown in, ask everyone to step away from their keyboards, and then begin speaking calmly with whoever is in charge. Being involved in investigations is simply a part of life for any sufficiently large corporate entity. No one is running around, no guns are being pointed at anyone, no one is particularly phased. Most staff are sent out to go for a walk, a few are kept back to walk the police forensics techs through what data is (or isn't, in this case) kept on premises.

I applaud your zeal against police overreach, but most cases of police overreach happen on the streets and in people's homes, not in some glass tower under the watchful gaze of a team of hostile lawyers. That's why - to return to your post above - legal representation absolutely does matter, and anyone interacting with the police in any capacity without it is being inexcusably reckless. Here's a law lecture to make that point better than I can: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-7o9xYp7eE.

It's about brand confusion in the same vertical.

So naming collisions can happen as long as they are in separate domains.

If your brand is too close to another, are you causing confusion?

If you went to the store and saw on the shelf:

- NutriBlend (Parent Co NutriCo)

- NutriActive (Parent Co NutriCo)

- NutriSport (Parent Co Athletic Treats Inc)

Could you think that NutriSport was a product of NutriCo? If so, thats the part the governments care about. They want people to be able to trust in commerce, to maximize tax revenue.

well yes but ISIS is very much on the back foot and in survival mode. They aren't exactly in control of population centers or threatening to overrun countries.

In this case if Ukraine & Russia arrive at some kind of a truce, its likely a low level conflict (fought through online misinformation /cyber warfare /border shelling) will continue. But it also won't be this full scale war

Generative AI is often not a feature to sell or a new system to switch to. Its faster, cheaper drop in replacement to a existing system component.

That is much harder for incumbents to stop, as there is little change in the actual system (hence minimal resistance from customers) and the incumbents are fighting a low friction profit margin gain.

If hospitals and fox news could replace their expensive doctors and journalists (or more realistically augment them so they don't need to hire as many), you can bet your bum they would.
I don't think the expectation that you are going to write DDL statements that will work in all SQL databases is reasonable. Which is why I never do this. My take is: it isn't going to be easy so don't even bother.

I have separate DDLs for different databases. And while I've heard a lot of people theorize that this is a maintenance nightmare, it has never been that in my experience.

You are going to spend a lot more time being frustrated if you try to make one DDL work for all databases. Especially if a new database is added to the mix (which might not even be an SQL database).

I have written perhaps half a dozen applications in the past 3-4 years that supports more than one database. Typically for schemas somewhere in the region of 5 to 15 tables. It rarely takes me more than 5-10 minutes to take the SQLite DDL and adapt it to, say PostgreSQL, including rewriting the SQL statements in the storage API layer. And you can design with this in mind.

(I often start with SQLite as it is the least feature rich database. Anything I can express for SQLite is easy to express for other SQL databases, and possibly NoSQL stores. And I can make do with "lowest common denominator" because any fancy stuff tends to just make life harder, so I tend to avoid it unless I have very, very specific needs)

Granted, it is a bit annoying to do schema updates across several DDLs, but so far, I've spent far less effort than a colleague of mine who always tries to maintain a single DDL and a single storage API layer implementation that is supposed to work across 2-3 SQL databases.

Also granted that it isn't elegant to maintain different DDL and store API implementations, but it turns out to not be as much work as people tend to claim.
At expense of browsers complexity rivaling operating systems.

And now there is essentially one browser who can afford such complexity. Until Google discontinues it.
The OPs point is that it’s likely impossible to do what is claimed here in general. Imagine the LLM says something like Fermat’s Last Theorem. To verify it, you’d have to either 1) have a proof assistant powerful enough to construct a proof 2) use a second ML model to guess truthfulness. The former is technically challenging and the latter is another model, with its own biases and factual inconsistencies.

Then replace "you" in my statement with "your son" and "someone else's son," and the same applies.

It's not just rhetoric. The underlying truth is that there have been wars in history that were worth fighting, and for which people did head to their nearest Army office and sign up to fight. And if a war doesn't reach that standard, then it begs the question why it's worth fighting at all.
As a recovered Haskell enthusiast, a can say that typescript is downright luxurious to work with for web development in a way that I think is hard to compete with in rust, because of how it types objects (like composable / decomposable sets), and the generic language to work with types really complements JavaScript instead of forcing you to do things differently.
Manipulative Consent Requests
I was using the phrase sort of idiomatically, but fair enough!
I think Ukraine will ultimately lose because it's not in the West's strategic interest, while it is in Russias. Russia's history is also pretty dark and they are paranoid of invasion. It makes no difference to our lives who governs Ukraine. It's horrible what has happened to the Ukraine and the Ukrainian people are fighting valiantly.

An invasion of Taiwan on the other hand would have a huge and immediate effect on our lives. We could in an instant be cut off from Semiconductors and would likely respond with a trade embargo with China who makes everything.

In the authors defense, I read it as referring to Kenyans because of the nature of the article which talks about them, not specifically about Kenyans not having anything interesting to write about or the skills to do so (having spend a good amount of time in Nairobi I know this is not the case!)

Interesting thoughts. They mirror my own in many respects.
Everything every Kenyan ever writes is boring? Don't equate being (comparatively) poor with being stupid.
If there was a superset of Rust where everything was transparently reference counted, every data structure could hold mixed types easily, and closures were dead simple, then maybe.

These are things that are, IMO, just too engrained as being possible in JS/TS for people to give up easily, especially in terms of UI programming.

I've used both quite a bit - I am pulling for Rust to become more ergonomic for this use case where it makes sense because it has lots of other advantages.

But when the rubber hits the road and you start writing, I think Rust gets in the way too much for UI programming. For a small project it may be OK, but in most orgs you have sweeping design changes occurring (probably too) often. Rust is best when things have stopped churning and stabilize.

UI code often churns like a relentless beast, so something extremely approachable/flexible but strongly typed is best I think. This is why TypeScript is winning in this arena.

I'm optimistic headway will be made, but Rust currently feels a lot better to write for back-end and systems. It's not a surprise since that's what it was designed for.

Besides all this, I'm totally unsure where the size of the distributable comes in. In JS things can be chunked per page easily which keeps load times small. With WASM you get the whole thing by default, correct? That could be problematic.
