I think that depends on how you use the tool. For example asking for answers vs asking probing questions while working something out. So it’s probably up to you as an individual. If you’re missing out on “all this” you might just be asking for answers.
What about this detailed criticism of Helion's entire reactor and long term plans:

yes - you can. this works "out of the box" for safari (ie - if you add facebook, you'll have to go through friction to reach facebook.com on safari without doing anything else.)

we just added support for chrome and other browsers by allowing you to associate domains with apps you've added. so associating facebok.com with your facebook app applies that same friction regardless of browser now.
>it seems it will eventually be captured by sociopaths / psychopaths.

This Is unfortunately generally true. It generally happens because well intentioned functioning people, allow the sociopaths to take over (because it's unpleasant to confront them) , even in tiny groups. I think this can be stalled by an ever vigilant group. People who are willing to take on the job of constant vigilance in addition to their regular tasks are few and far be in between. Consequently such groups are very few and probably are never even public, hence we never hear of them.
Currently do you use multiple processors though?
You can be optimistic when you’re just making an app to rent your room out or to find a dog walker. You can hustle and sell useless SaaS services long enough to get acquired for no real reason except managerial power plays in large companies. In the world of software you can kinda make almost any idea work with sweat and political maneuvering. You can literally see that they’re trying to play the same games here.

However when it comes to startups dealing with biology or physics you’re literally battling the laws of nature. You can’t just hustle out of it. I’ve been laughing at the type of biotech companies that get funded by SV (nano diamonds for cancer detection? Gut Micro biome sequencing?) and it’s looking like similar story with fusion.

In this case if you want real reasons why Helion looks suspect check out this good summary of all the issues with their approach and promise: https://youtu.be/3vUPhsFoniw

I won’t get my life against someone figuring out fusion in the next two decades but I wouldn’t bet money towards it either.
Dell's new monitor boasts 6K resolution and IPS Black display technology
The general attitude in my circles is none of those technologies have had any positive impact on our or our loved one’s lives. Don’t get me wrong, they’re all “cool and awesome”, but when you put it into perspective of “is life easier” or “has our happiness increased”, my answer would be a strong no.

This general skepticism leads to younger generation to be more cynical, especially when things that have been promised just don’t work out. I can’t really support it with any reliable data, as I mentioned, could just be my circles and nobody else.

Hopefully fusion will work out though! That I’m looking forward to.
We didn't write up our rollback plan, but here was the gist. Since we first had to remove the primary key from all children in order to add the conflicting composite primary key to the parent (that propagated to children), if we aborted the whole process, we'd then need to restore the single column PK on children again by creating the PKs we'd just removed.

In both cases, success or failure, before swapping a second time we needed to copy forward all the rows being inserted into the placeholder table.

Other disaster mitigations are capturing a dump of rows for the relevant partitions being modified with pg_dump. And having physical database backups with snapshots enabled and available if things really go wrong.

It functions because the premise, that interviews actually work as filters to choose the best candidates, is false.

It also works because finding the answers for a question is a skill, likely more valuable at work than memorizing a dozen of algorithm implementations.

The current interview culture is a joke.

Abusers are at their most dangerous when you try to leave them. They will be even more dangerous if you have to damage their public reputation with the ugly truth to try to escape.

No fault divorce makes it vastly easier to divorce for a lot of reasons and making it unnecessarily hard to leave can foster situations where it becomes abusive because they don't get along that well and can't just up and leave because they want to.
Well what's the fraction of success stories compared to the promises given? And: The success stories you're mentioning would have been there (even earlier in many cases) if they'd be consistently developed over time.

Tesla did not invent the e-car nor did SpaceX have the idea to go to space. Maybe it's just people being fed up with glossy techbro marketing whilst being fired because of "past overhiring"?
More people and companies (especially) should be willing to at least try to get the domain they want; I was surprised when I was able to get a work-related TLA on an original TLD for not much money at all, especially considering how much you spend to send even a single press release.
How do you propose that LLMs are paid for?
What about a tuned private LLM like Koala (or other small open LLMs)? Run it on a low-cost server and respond to spam accordingly. With email spam, even a phone's low token generation is not a problem because its just responding to spam. Thus any ChatGPT-powered spam will run up the spammer's costs instead.
Profit excludes salary, overhead, and expenses!

Your rant is a redundant "but not all" truism.

It doesn't invalidate the easily observable phenomenon of widespread cheating in low trust society like India. This is also a huge problem for universities around that accept students of wealthy parents from these countries which cause grade inflation. Multiple articles have been written around this in mainstream publications.

It’s not.

No it doesn’t. You’ve been conned. Look at what they’re trying to get your consent for, and you will find that you would almost always prefer that they not do it.
The headline doesn't accurately represent the content of the blog post.

It should be "GitHub's New Code Search is Bad for Finding __New__ Code". GitHub's new code search is great at finding code (a vast improvement over the old one), and as it is optimized for finding code independent of temporal aspects, it's not good at finding _new_ code.

Sounds like a good tradeoff to me, as there conceptually aren't any reliable/unambigous indicators of "when" attached to a piece of code (same as for authorship). Should it count when the commit was authored? Should it count when the commit was pushed to GitHub? Should it count when the commit was merged to the default branch of the repo?
Maybe we just grew up? There is still plenty we are enthusiastic and positive about here, but discussion sure has become more nuanced.
In my city a couple of miles from me is a new housing community with $1M houses; only a few different models are available, featuring minimal paint color options, all on zero lot line spaces, any closer together they would be one giant condo. A friend toured the model and reported how cheaply it was built. Yet they sold out. The average price of a house nearby is closer to $400k. I bet the developer made a fortune.
The best way to learn is by doing. Start a side project or contribute to an existing open-source project. Make sure it's completely out of your wheelhouse to learn the most. At the end of the day hopefully you have a cool thing to show off on your blog or GitHub page.
The word 'pants' doesn't appear in the article, nor does the word 'dress' for that matter. I think the headline is bullshit. I really doubt they are requiring pants. It would be a senseless invitation for lawsuits.
No, it is an attack on much of the trans community.

"The LGBT community" is in and of itself a part of this weird usage of group terminology to muddy the waters. It's pretty much a political device invented for that purpose - if you don't support all you support none, which is clearly ridiculous.

For example, trans women not being permitted to compete in women's sports has exactly zero bearing on the life of gay men, and is actually in the interest of gay women.
Hi hi! Nice work :)

Thinking over some of the other conversation here, about the difficulties in the devx what with the templates being invalid python -

Could you pull some shenanigans with https://docs.python.org/2/library/inspect.html#inspect.getso... and siblings?

I'm thinking - at least in some places - you might be able to have lists of functions/modules/etc to get copied, rather than lists of templates to get rendered. Might even be able to do some code-as-strings manipulation during the copy.

The entire point would be so that the code from Pegasus that ends up in the generated project is valid Python code from the get-go, rather than only one it's rendered.
Before clicking that link I wondered what I would recommend to people who were feeling cynical about the world. It's a book by Hans Rosling - Factfulness, and it turns out that's the guy in your video.
> There are Reference Based Pricing plans available in the commercial medical insurance world now.

> So yes you can "pay what medicare pays" be prepared to have some pissed off doctors and balance billing.

You're not wrong but your description is conflating two different things.

What you're describing - "pay what Medicare pays" is more or less how private insurance typically works for in-network providers. The provider gets paid X% of the Medicare Allowable Rate (where X > 100), and that comes either from the patient or the insurer (depending on any applicable deductible, copay, OOP max, etc.)

Reference-based pricing applies that to all providers, including out-of-network providers. However, except for care received in the emergency room, the provider is allowed to bill the patient for the difference between what the insurer allows and what the provider charges. Some plans will actually allow in-network providers to bill patients for the balance. In that case, everyone wins except the patient: the insurer/employer has a fixed cap on their costs per service, and the hospital/provider doesn't have to settle for a lower rate.
That will always be an issue and, moreover, always has been an issue — not only with code one obtains from other humans through forums, stack overflow, and blog posts — but also with code written entirely by oneself.

Code we get from an LLM, or someone else's fallible wetware, or our own fallible wetware, all need thoughtful consideration prior to committing.
The guy at the store filmed my running, pointed out that (according to him) my feet bend inwards when running and recommended some Adidas shoes that (again, according to him) would "fix" the bending and make it fully vertical. I got instead terrible knee pain, to the point of barely being able to go up the stairs.

The second doctor told me to rip the insoles and replace them with some orthopedic, custom-made ones (my insurance covers a pair or two a year) and also prescribed me some knee pads with metal rods on the sides that I must wear whenever I run. He also sent me to physiotherapy for a month where I learned exercises to strengthen the knee and core muscles. Whenever my knees start to hurt (typically after not exercising for a while) these exercises make it go away.
Great work! Thanks for sharing.
Yeah, this is my takeaway whenever someone uses “McMansion” in a disparaging way - it’s mostly to sneer at some “lower class”.

>it seems that running an anticheat is greater priority than a linux client

Yes. Unless you have a better way of mitigating the cheaters, you'll find this to be the preferred choice by almost everyone. In this bubble, people are going to decry the loss of control. But in their market, the problem has gotten so bad, that not doing so would rapidly evaporate their entire product.
No need to know about electrons to understand electricity.
I wonder if there's already a paper, or a fictional book, about what happens if someone invents something that makes fossil fuels obsolete within, say, a year. The OPEC countries would suddenly be faced with losing one of their biggest income streams. It would be interesting to speculate...

Of course there are different levels of obsolence, all the petrol cars won't disappear, unless someone invents a magic liquid to replace petrol/diesel with something that works identically but without the pollution.

The forces aren't distributed equally around the spokes. There's barely any change in force to the spokes above the hub, and the majority of the change in force when putting a load on a wheel is in the three or so spokes below the hub.

For the hub to be considered hanging from the rim, then there should be a significant change in the tension of the upper spokes when the wheel is loaded, but that does not happen. It may sound funny, but the reality is that there is only a significant change in tension in the bottom spokes.
Possibly. But if that's the case, the best thing that can happen is for bullshiters to fill up all of the positions there and drive the company down fast as possible.

I have lots of sympathy for people that lose time discarding cheaters from their hiring processes, or that hire people just to immediately fire them due to cheating. But if they are promoting those cheaters, then they are the fraudulent ones.
All jobs are artificially kept, as would UBI be. They are all artifacts of the law.

Money is a way to allocate resources, and technological progress depends on people having incentives to contribute.

Do you think LLMs are a natural phenomenon?
There was also another one written in Java which was (supposedly) very compatible too and had a full working IDE, etc, but it was abandoned long ago and has been lost in the mists of time. Actually there was a much older project that was compatible with VB4 (i think) and IIRC it was made when Microsoft still worked on classic VB, but again, abandoned and lost.

None of these were open source, like the two you mentioned, which if history is any indication it means that they will be eventually lost too.
> It doesn't invalidate the easily observable phenomenon of widespread cheating in low trust society like India.

Agreed. I am very carefully saying that I stand by my own observations as well. The point is that, while these behaviors may be commonplace in a particular society, it does not mean any given individual person from that society engages in these behaviors. We should always be careful of the heuristics we apply to people and work to treat every individual as an individual.

Not being careful here can actually create a form of category error. It's similar to the expectations of visitors to the US that everyone is walking around openly carrying guns and shooting each other constantly due to what's in the news or the statistical probability of a shooting occurring compared to other countries in the world. If you have a 4x higher chance of being involved in a shooting per capita in the US vs a random Western European country, both numbers could be minuscule chances (and are). Just because this type of dishonest behavior is more commonplace in low trust societies, and in this case in India in particular, the population is so large that it still represents a small fraction of the total number of people and you have to be careful not to indict everyone within the society on the basis of the behavior of a few. 15% of the Indian population would be the same as half or more of the US population, but there's a very big difference in categorization between something that is the behavior of a minority of a population vs half or more of the population.

That's all I'm saying. Treat individuals as individuals.

It's pretty easy to find comments of people complaining about cynicism 11+ years ago.
That doesn't mean shorter is always better. When you take away necessary detail to make things shorter, you wind up with a shorter, less perfect law.

For instance, if the law was "No driving over 70mph on I-75", shortening the law to "No driving" isn't an improvement. And even if we maintain the detail and shorten to "No 70+mph driving @ I-75" it doesn't improve things.

Concise is good. shortness for shortness sake is not. We don't need to be playing code golf with laws.
No, I don't believe that works.
Does that page apply to employer based plans? It's not clear that it's not just discussing marketplace plans.

Your computer can't do any useful crypto mining if you're the one paying for electricity, but if you're freely using other people's computers then it can definitely be profitable.
The cynicism is an op, or something - because I don’t have the evidence to say it’s definitively an “op” - as the kids say.

But legitimately, there is a strong cynical bubble in the zeitgeist now, and it’s dangerous.

There are a few things this cynicism says.

1. “People suck and are terrible.”
2. “People are stupid.”
3. “We can’t change anything.”
4. “Great calamity is going to happen and we are powerless to stop it.”

This is a lie. The world doesn’t suck, it’s much better than it used to be, people aren’t terrible - if people were more bad than good on average we’d still be hitting each other with clubs and going Conan on people. We aren’t stupid - it’s just that the stupid people are louder. And while the possibilities for great calamity exist, they are not guaranteed.

This may be more emergent than anything else, but trust your neighbors, treat people nicely, and you - yes individually each of you - need to start trying to make the world better.

Nobody is going to do it for us. I know what it’s like to feel bleak, trust me I do - but that’s just a call to action. It’s not “techno optimism” we need - it’s optimism, there are radical solutions that don’t use a single transistor.
I'd use Ruby more if it would work better in a notebook environment. It appears that iruby is in maintenance mode and falling behind Julia in usability.
Thanks great video describing the neutron production issues and the cross-section issues of their fuel choice.
You can literally just do an atomic swap on some memory location. Three lines of assembly, like.

mov rax, 1 ; load the value to exchange into rax
acquire_lock:
; attempt to acquire the lock
xchg byte [ADDR_LOCK], al ; atomically swap the lock value with rax
test al, al ; test if the original lock value was 0 (unlocked)
jnz acquire_lock ; if it was not, loop until we can acquire the lock

The downside is you want a backoff to sleep the thread so it doesn't go into a loop. But the actual lock code is simple. You can easily have this be your function "AcquireLock()" and then do

while(!AcquireLock())
{
//pause thread execution.
}

And I think this is where they get the syscall being needed, since this will normally require a syscall to pause the thread from the scheduler.
Given the token count limits on input and output, I've been wondering how folks work on these long-running projects? Is it just not a problem, or are there some tactics? I find in trying to build up lengthy outputs that it starts truncating or leaving out things from way before.

>Feel free to downvote me or call me a moron…

You are actually being very astute. One of the reasons (there are of course more reasons) that America does so well is that most common citizens are relatively honest. Consequently in many third world countries corruption is rife, not only is it tolerated it is often encouraged.
Getting older is no excuse for cynicism.
Here's one with an impact: one of my relatives was diagnosed seven years ago with stage 4 melanoma, which a couple decades ago was a one-year death sentence. She got three doses of immunotherapy, her tumors shrank, and last year her oncologist said don't even bother coming in for scans anymore, you're fine.
I've been trying to do it to some extent but I can't say it's been enjoyable (granted most of it has been GPT-3). It's more like a tutor that never calls out your mistakes and gaps. Anything you ask, it comes up with an affirmative answer, I try the answer and it ends up being a hallucination.

At this point, i am in a place where GPT gives me good solutions that might not work vs having to go through all the noise Googling stuff to find a working solution.

But it is great just to learn different concepts at a high level. Helps me clear my mind when coming up with designs
Those languages are all pretty widely used

From what I understand, history students are advised to focus closely on one area.
In addition there is likely specific and aggregate stop loss coverage carried by a reinsurance carrier, such as AXA, Lloyds or even Cigna papers reinsurance often on their self funded plans.
A half-baked idea I had while reading the article was to use bloom filters:

User visits the site. On the backend, check if their IP+UA is in the bloom filter or not. If not, increase the unique visitor counter and add them to the filter.

Perhaps the filter would need to be preseeded with dummy data to protect the privacy of the first few visitors.
