Actually the domain (handle) resolves to your DID which is you primary identifier and which contains your public key and without coresponding private key, nobody would be able to happily continue as you... See: https://atproto.com/guides/identity. It would be better though if the DID didn't contain the link back to the domain, so that you could continue with your identity under different domain...
Cultural pressure means political pressure and eventually that works its way through the system. It may be blunt and slow, but it gets there eventually.
This is amazing. Some types of industries should not operate under capitalism and research is probably one of those industries, at least for life-saving research.
Frankly I dislike the situation as well but I like to play devil's advocate for a bit.

In some sense attaching a high cost to a paper is a crude way of proving the quality of the paper. Putting all of the cost with the authors is clearly not ideal, because you'd only measure how much someone is willing to pay to get it published. By placing the cost with the people reading the article you ensure that the publisher must ensure their articles are actually worth reading.

The fact that getting incentives to align requires a random party to get large profits without actually doing much is a quirk of capitalism. If you ignore the concept of private property for a bit you'll see that the obvious solution is to simply burn up the excess money (capitalists would attempt to sustain the illusion that money is indelible and privately owned by viewing this as a tax).
Its also useful for the Quantum Computer.

So I'd say "serious" amounts of clicking is ~first few minutes, and then maybe for ~10 minute segment (and only ~30 seconds at a time at most).
> The Romans didn't kill off native peoples - they subjugated them, taxed them, and forced them to comply with some Roman norms.

That's painting with a bit of a broad brush. The Romans had no problems killing off large swaths of the population.

Depopulation was a tactic that was absolutely on the table. For example, during the conquest of Gaul, ~1/3 of the population was killed and another ~1/3 were sold off as slaves. The tactics you're talking about were used on the remaining 1/3.

Those tactics, admittedly, work quite well when you only have to deal with the friendliest 1/3 of a population.
Haha, fair enough. How about - typing out a "hello world" program using a keyboard layout pulled out of a hat :)
What? Humans get away with crap like this all the time. You’ve never had a friend promise to show up to something and then not show up? Or promise to return a tool after borrowing it and not do it?

Or a freelance contractor/handyman only do half a job?
Ah I should have been a bit more clear. I'm interested in how FHE actually works and the steps needed to transform general computation to its FHE equivalent.
This hit too close to home that I couldn't finish reading it in a sitting. I had to walk around my apartment a couple of times waiting to relax before coming back to my computer.

I have blanks in my memories too, where my dad told me he hit me (he apologized for it, like in OP). And I remember nothing after "the triggering incident", like in OP.

I also have very bad trust issues now, to the point where it is hard for me to make friends if they insist on having opinions on my life. Relationships have never worked for me, because it takes me forever to open up.

Childhood trauma sucks. Why people take their anger out on innocent kids just trying to understand how the world works in their own ways, is just beyond me.

There's SOO many more positive and healthy ways to raise a child. And realizing that now makes me genuinely teary eyed about all the neural pathways in my brain that were formed or not formed as a result of my parents decisions.

But I'm kind of glad to see so many of my friends being awesome parents, really caring for and listening to their kids. I'm lowkey excited for the next generation, who will be much more open about their thoughts and feelings, and probably more well adjusted as humans.

My pet hypothesis is this will also why the current/next generation is much more open about sexuality / gender / identity, and I expect this to get only more nuanced as science understands more and as people learn to express more. But that's just something I cooked up. Anyone else feel this way?

+1 this. I'm very much hoping they'll stick to the protocol because it seems very well thought out and designed as a social protocol. I see this as a Deno situation where the runtime is free and open and will always be that way, but they build products upon it. That way everyone benefits from a good thing.
This is a terrible take. Games everyone has forgotten were brought back to popular attention. This happens countless times in popular culture.

Remember when the CIA hacked the Senate? No?

https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/01/world/senate-intelligence...

I'm pretty sure a lot of lawmakers still take this shit seriously.
I feel like there are a lot of similar examples they just don’t get a lot of press. Naloxone was recently approved for OTC and they also recently approved allowing Mifepristone prescriptions by mail. They’re considering allowing a new birth control to be sold over the counter. Maybe a decade or so ago Plan B was prescription only but they allow that to be sold over the counter now, too.

And a lot of other drugs have made the jump in my adult memory: allergy drugs like Claritin and Flonase used to be prescription only as did just about every major antacid like Prilosec and Nexium. There’s a new topical NSAID for arthritis that recently made the switch to OTC too, I think.
Is there a blog post or something on this?
I don't agree. They may not be conscious of it but the target here is people who didn't have the "right" education letting them know to avoid this phrase.
In a sense, isn't AI trained by "frequency of the majority?"

Then exceptions may need to be even more so, and it may be harder to discuss outliers.

Anyway, once they get through, even if the model is retrained, maybe there are not enough exceptions in the world to convince it otherwise.

AI that does not have a "stop, something is anomalous about this" has no conscience, and perhaps thus has no duty in determining moral decisions.

Plus, how does AI evolve without novelty; everyone will be stamped with the "collection of statistical weights."

Is that how you feel as well?
Another thought and I can't edit now!

Try to avoid learning to push in the 'mango' style; planted foot on the back of the board.

Like a Dodge Viper, there's a lot of nose - it's hard to steer/keep under control.

Planting your foot near the front of the board is better for keeping control and powering through rough terrain. Near the back, it'll wander/bounce like crazy

There's no one good spot, but roughly on/just behind the front trucks is a good place to plant for pushing
That seems backwards. There is an optimisation system of independent actors, and money is emergent from that. You could get rid of money, but you just end up with another measure.

> we as a society have chosen that the goal of Money is actually the most important thing to us

I disagree. We enact laws as constraints because our society says that many other things are more important than money. Often legal constraints cost corporations money.

Here are a few solutions I have heard proposed:

1: stop progress. Opinion: infeasible.

2: revert progress back to a point in the past. Opinion: infeasible.

3: kill a large population. Opinion: evil and probably self-destructive.

4: revolution - completely replace our systems with different systems. Opinion: seen this option fail plenty and hard to find modern examples of success. Getting rid of money would definitely be wholesale revolution.

5: progress - hope that through gradual improvements we can fix our mistakes and change our systems to achieve better outcomes and (on topic) hopefully avoid catastrophic failures. Opinion: this is the default action of our current systems.

6: political change - modify political systems to make them effective. Opinion: seen failures in other countries, but in New Zealand and we have had some so-far successful political reforms. I would like the US to change its voting system (maybe STV) because the current bipartisan system seems to be preventing necessary legislation - we all need better checks and balances against the excesses of capitalism. I don’t even get a vote in the USA, so my options to effect change in the USA are more limited. In New Zealand we have an MMP voting system: that helped to somewhat fix the bipartisan problem, but unfortunately MMP gave us unelected (list) politicians which is arse. The biggest strength of democracy is voting those we don’t like out (every powerful leader or group wants to stay in power).

7: world war - one group vying for power to enlighten the other group. Opinion: if it happens I hope me and those I love are okay, but I would expect us all to be fucked badly even in the comparatively safe and out-of-the-way New Zealand.
When Microsoft originally published a short page with their justification of the advantages of UEFI and GPT drive layout, everything touted as an advantage was false.

As this was foisted and users became accustomed to the migration away from more well-proven traditional operation, the page was edited into oblivion as it could be seen users would have better recognized the falsehood by then after having some direct experience.

So many "influencers" were already carrying the flag on their own that the page was eventually removed.

TPM came next.
So far it seems to be Mastodon, with some tweaks, and the improvement that while it's federated in theory, right now there's only one server. This addresses the critical flaw people point out with Mastodon, which is that because it requires you to choose a server it's too confusing. The requirement to choose a hosting provider is why email famously never took off.
> Intelligence isn’t going to be defined, understood, and created by statisticians and computer scientists.

What is an example of a task that demonstrates either intelligence, sentience, or learning, and which you don't think computer scientists will be able to get a computer to do within, say... the next 10 years?
I suspect they are referring to modern English translations of Shakespear's plays like the ones on this website:

Or perhaps exactly those. Maybe the article author means that's how Shakespear is read by everyone today?

> As for games, lots of people play games and want good anticheat

Great, let's install a backdoor in every computer so that some people can play games and watch movies. No. Computer is a thing for computing numbers not a replacement for a TV.
Back in 90-s your only realistic choice for batteries was nickel-metalhydride chemistry. And that's around 50 Wh/kg of energy density for the assembled battery pack, compared to 150 Wh/kg for Li-Ion.

With a huge number of issues: you can't fast-charge NiMh batteries, and the self-discharge rate is horrendous.

Then there is the question of the control circuitry. The first truly reliable high-voltage IGBTs started appearing only in mid 90-s. Before that, you in practice had been limited to synchronous permanent-magnet DC motors.

So I think that EVs really started happening almost immediately after all the enabling technology got there in the early 2000-s. The first Tesla Roadster was released in 2008, so perhaps you could have shaved 3-4 years from that, but not much more.
>People don’t care about the anticheat on their computer, they want it foisted on everyone else who plays, which is a sucky proposition for privacy and security minded people.

No they want games without hackers. Which kernel based anticheats helps with. Can it also impact privacy and security? Yes no doubt but so can any program running on the computer even in userspace. Remember we are talking about kernel anticheats on windows lol.

If you are really worried about it you could dual boot like many people. Either way this whole argument seems silly to me.
What’s the alternative that you’re proposing? From what Google has published, YT barely makes money even at the current 55/45 cut. Consider what they’re doing —- hosting billions of hours of video, at global scale, 365 days a year, for free. Nobody wants this business because it’s a terrible business.

Despite all the above, YT is still the primary platform, along with Instagram, to which content creators and influencers flock. People that “make it” on TikTok launch YT channels, for example.

Not making a living on YT is not because of YT’s monopolistic status; YT video creation is the best of a bad bunch. The same way most actors go to Hollywood and end up in poverty, most aspiring YouTubers end up with time spent and not much earns.

All the truly big creators make, from what I recall, roughly a third to half the money on Adsense, with the rest coming from other sources (embedded ads, merch, Patreon, donations, etc).
Is the National Review publishing Babylon Bee style satire now? That's a very weird article.
I'm not sure why you couldn't associate a new key with whatever services you use, like changing a password, or even having multiple keys associated to one account.

Also I am not sure that I would consider not being able to access private key material from a enclave vendor lock in, since that's the entire purpose of the device.

I guess the same people arguing that passkey is a conspiracy are the same ones that think secure boot and TPM is a Microsofts conspiracy to prevent you from installing Linux.
Tbh I'm getting tired of these "you must never do x" or "you've been doing y wrong" articles, they're always such overblown statements for mostly trivial things
1. It doesn't actually work.

2. All it actually does is keep users trapped in Windows. God forbid anyone actually use Linux, or even a VM!

The only actually effective anti-cheat is the original: moderation.

Now that users aren't able to host their own servers, they can't do moderation. Game studios don't want to do moderation themselves, so they keep trying (and failing) to replace it with automated anticheat systems.

What do you mean? Previous trials of ketamine for depression didn't involve anaesthesia. They uses low doses of ketamine:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26578082/

Also, they didn't use any anaesthetic known to have antidepressant properties:

"Anesthesiologists were asked to minimize use of nitrous oxide (N2O), which has reported antidepressant effects22. Agents used for anesthetic maintenance included intravenous propofol and inhaled sevoflurane or isoflurane"

Make every player pay a deposit which is confiscated when they get caught cheating. Make servers with different deposit levels, so that people who really care about cheating pay over $1000 for example.

TBH I haven't paid much attention to it, but as somebody who was already using Mastodon as their primary social network for years before Musk took over, I'm not sure I understand what niche BlueSky is even supposed to fill that ActivityPub/Fediverse doesn't already fill. It just seems like a bunch of guys who got ousted from their jobs trying to invent a new commercial social network.

And one of the things that needs to be emphasized that a lot of people seem to have forgotten is that twitter was already terrible a *long* time before Musk bought it. Jack and his cronies aren't actually any better than Musk is, they're just smart enough not to make an ass of themselves in front of the entire world. I don't trust them.
We will never know. That’s ineffable and subjective.

We can only trust that it’s telling us the truth.

Just like you can only trust someone else that they are telling you the truth about their own experience.

Our language is essentially just and LLM hallucinating words to try to explain our non-symbolic experience.

In other words, all experience is non-symbolic, but we are trying to symbolize it all the time.

I subscribe to panpsychism, everything is conscious/ness. Consciousness is part of the fabric of reality/universe.

Some things need to be over-regulated, like food (making sure companies don't put bad things in it or lie about what they're selling), or anything common for the matter. Some things ehh...like experimental drugs, which some argue need to be well-tested, but the alternative for some is dying or living in constant pain (personally, I think people should be able to sign up for anything as long as its, beyond doubt, under their own choice and they're fully aware of potential consequences)

I just don't see the reason to regulate hearing aids. It's not like they'll blow up in your ear or translate people's everyday conversations into conspiracy theories, and hearing aids which don't work well are better than none at all.
Ok. Now someone fine tune llama on this and then you’ll be able to understand how you’ll have a custom social user agent that shields you from toxic people and moderates on your behalf.
While this is generally true, systems like Rails have so much magic going on that "best practices" are actually closer to being part of a specification. Whether that's noteworthy enough for a dedicated post, and why it can't just be part of Rails documentation, is a separate question - but there's nothing trivial about this kind of advice.

there are plenty of studies in which ketamine has been given without masking, so we have a lot of evidence it does help. You’re tacitly assuming that it does, which in the absence of blinding the patients to the use of ketamine there is no evidence for.
No, I'm saying that I deserve the same vote as you because we are both adult citizens. You're arguing that certain special knowledge, or even worse, theoretical incentive to gain said special knowledge, gives one voter the right to a greater say than another, so I demonstrated that your assumption of my knowledge was drastically incomplete.

> You are happy to let people who have done neither have a vote, too? How does that make sense?

Given statistics on down-ballot voting, a fair chunk of people who have nothing riding on a particular office, or don't have knowledge about it, opt themselves out. This is the democratic way of handling the situation. No other party except the voter themself can genuinely discover whether the voter is "informed enough" to cast a vote. There are plenty of hyper-informed hyper-partisans who let their ideology overrule their knowledge. Who say "my kids matter, but I don't give a damn about yours, and will vote to that effect". Do you believe that in your system those who homeschool or send their kids to private school should vote on the public schools? I do, but it seems like you wouldn't.

> But I get the same number of votes as you?

Yes.

> You won't be an expert in everything that you need to make decisions about, but you will have an incentive to inform yourself.

Sure. And in a democracy yours will hopefully be the most informative, and hopefully convincing, voice. And your voice will convince many of the other voters that you are correct, and they will vote in the way you recommend.
The Romanian for "to use" is "a utiliza." Bilingual speakers might find "utilize" more familiar and choose it as such. The same might be true of other languages, and a possible explanation for its popularity.

In every other respect, "use" is indeed better.

I lost my mom in my late teens. My parents were wonderful. Definitely well above average. I owe them so much.

Something that I’ve been discovering is that I have two sections of blanks in my memory: the anguish of her being so sick for years, and the times she lost her cool with me.

Both sets of memories have been trickling back decades later. I’m not sure what to share about it in particular, but in general it has been a fascinating and oftentimes horrible sensation. To suddenly have a memory activate for no apparent reason.

I’m incredibly thankful that my wife is the person she is. I’ll randomly come into the room holding back tears and she immediately knows what it is and what to do.

I think it’s important to speak these things aloud to help further normalize our talking about them.

That's not playing devil's advocate, that is playing clueless. It's the institutions paying for paper access, and not on a "per paper" basis; no ones incentives are being aligned, no one is actually paying $50 to read a paper.
