Yeah. MS basically forced PC hardware configuration standardization through popularity. Everyone wanted DOS, then Windows. So if the computer didn’t follow the standard spec for hardware design/discovery no one would buy it.

I think you’re lowballing it, but anyway you’re forgetting the enormous rocket* everyone saw take off. It had to go somewhere.

Mission Control had 30 people in the room at a time, and each console had its own engineering room with about a dozen staff, and there were several shifts. Then there were the teams at tracking and communications stations all over the world. That adds hundreds more people at least, possibly thousands. They would all have to know the crew never actually landed on the moon.

*Sorry, silly me, six rockets over a period of three and a half years.

Motte, meet bailey. There is more plastic polluting the environment in Australia thanks to plastic bag bans, and they have been replaced by paper bags which emit 10x more CO2 per bag (or reusable bags that break even on CO2 after a few hundred to a thousand uses). This should be considered a huge L for the "environmentalists" who pushed it, on all fronts.

I don't know Ruby, and I'd argue it has dissimilar syntax to many other languages I use regularly (that's changed over the years but whatever, my point still stands).

I can still read ruby code, because it's still readable. Same with Lisp, which I never bothered to sit down and learn until about a year ago. Prior to that, I still had no problem reading and understanding it (perhaps not as intuitively as someone who writes it regularly).

The quoted example is, for all intents and purposes, gibberish to me. And I have worked with CoQ.

How will you get access to a real night sky, if there's no democratic control over billionaire's actions?

You just assume (without argument) that the internet has to be absolutely everywhere (and all high-bandwidth). You can argue it, and then figure those arguments into pros/cons. If you see none of the cons, you are not even part of the debate (you're just an ideologist). To assume one side, without interrogation or thought, is to be a decerebrate plaything of the billionaire's momentary whim.

I don't even particularly like the notion of a 'take'. As if it's just an opinion about one minor supermarket choice. It's not. I see it more as a fundamental attack on my planet and species, by a self-appointed colonising elite.

Sponsors are usually just the same 5 things repeated over and over across many different videos. It's interesting to see how people manage to fit it in the various different styles of videos, but it gets annoying really quickly if you watch more than a few videos with the same sponsors. I block sponsors to save precious time, which is especially important when I am trying to understand something. In the end, sponsors are no different from ads, they are just messages from corporations to get you to buy things you most likely don't need.

Here's another perspective.

I want information. The niche thing I want seems like it may only be in a YouTube video. It looks like it's a 10m video (to optimize for ads). I have zero plans to engage or continue watching the creator. I just want my info as quickly and "free." I might use this if it gave useful results.

The reality is that creating a 10 fluff video to answer one specific question is bloat. So I feel zero qualms optimizing my experience to mitigate it.

The other side of that are the creators I enjoy (James Hoffman is a good example). I watch his content for him, and thus I want to see him continue creating content.

The other info video I tl;dr'd? That's the sort of info I hope I can soon access directly via ChatGPT without needing a creator to create a 10m video around it.

There's a class of content creation that will simply get valued less as AI adoption grows. It happened with the written word, blogs, and newspapers. It happened with photography, it happened with video, and now video is continuing to be further disrupted as our ability to tailor it to our needs improves.

Why waste time complaining and fighting against the current when you can run with it? Find forms of content not likely to be used with this sort of thing, or that an AI generated video can easily replace (we're practically there already). Differentiate. Build your brand.

Great point. To add to that, a patient is often not the only reader on the "patient" side: their close family (spouse, parents etc.) will also be reading them, especially if they're helping with the therapy, and they'll also have their own sensibility to how it's presented.

I think in most open record systems there's provision for retaining info from the patient in case it could objectively lead to negative consequences, but this is indeed a complicated choice that arises patient by patient.
I have a general unease with the argument from datasets. It’s true for the current paradigm, but at some point, you can just plug an agent into a robot body and have it generate and predict arbitrary cause/effect in the world. Or plug in the feed of internet data and have it predict stocks.

The reason these don’t work now is that the gradients are way too sparse to learn from. But at a certain level of capability this will stop being true. The big Q is whether the existing gradient of “all written content” gets the loss low enough for another information source to smoothly take over.

More pithily, there are plenty of high-quality datasets if you are smart enough to generate OK predictions. The smarter you get the more you can learn from.

There are plenty of obvious synthetic datasets that GPT-5 could be trained on, eg generated problems for all of the physics/maths it currently gets wrong. (I’d be surprised if this isn’t an angle they are working on.)

Not according to sources I can find. EIA forecasts for the long term project continued increases through 2050 [1] Maybe in locations elsewhere in the world? Or specific states in the US? Certainly not where I live, which is aggressively pursuing renewables and despite this prices continue to increase, and were doing so before the spike in natural gas prices.

> Clinicians have already made the informed estimate for me.

I would be interested to know if there is any scientific justification for the limit that isn’t simply eugenics in disguise. It might be an empirically informed estimate guided by morally objectionable principles. Or it might be a round number someone pulled out of their ass. If you just want to trust that the limit has a sound basis, then that’s fair enough on a personal level. You are certainly not obliged to persuade random people on the internet otherwise.

> The court are not even looking in the area you're so concerned about, and nobody is thinking of making any laws in that area.

That’s my point. No-one in general is trying (yet) to stop particular pairs of humans procreating based on estimates of the chances of birth defects in their children. So what’s the justification for doing it in this case? I understand that there are no ‘couples’ involved in a romantic sense, but the sperm and egg don’t know the difference. If the concern is a genetic one, it should apply equally in either situation.

As I said before, there are probably lots of other reasons why what this guy has done is bad. I just don’t think this can be the reason.

There are actually several reasons.

Climate change is one. Induction stove powered by the latest generation of gas plants are actually more efficient than gas stoves. Of course, they can run off renewable or nuclear energy too.

For health, it is not great, and not all building are equipped with proper ventilation. And yes, it matters to the government, because even the US government will spend money to keep you alive if you are sick, and in the case of gas stoves, it is not just you, it will impact everyone who lives with you, possibly including your children.

And the last one is safety. I don't know the relative fire hazard of electric devices over open flames, but I'd go with the open flame. And sometimes entire buildings blow up because of (sometimes voluntary) gas leaks.

All these may be small effects, but they are real. And electric stoves are good now, especially induction. Gas stoves still have a few advantages, but not as much as they once had. I've even seen clever battery powered stoves, the batteries allowing them to have greater burst power than what the electrical installation can supply, they can even be used as a backup power supply.

Note that I have a gas stove, and I like it very much. But the reason I have it is that we already had gas. If they banned gas for the entire building, I would have no problem switching to something else (induction).
Your stove may well cause quite dangerous NOx in rather less than 4 hours:

https://pubs.acs.org/doi/suppl/10.1021/acs.est.1c04707/suppl...

See the last page.

What you need is a real vent that vents outside. Or a stove that doesn’t emit NOx (and carbon monoxide, etc).

Frankly this whole thing is a bit absurd. Everyone ought to know that flue gas from a furnace or water heater is extremely dangerous when it ends up indoors. Why are gas stoves ever considered okay?

GH ignored it but maybe Huggingface could implement such a thing
