That person's argument is borderline insane to me - a severe lack of knowing what is unknown, a reverence of current best-models (regards modern science, including neurology - yet, open minded investigations beyond are also a requisite here.) And the pompousness is what truly boggles my mind ("Its silly to believe this, now.) A look in the mirror would suffice to say the least...

Anyway, thank you for a great answer and conversation throughout this thread.

Regards neural networks, parroting and the emulation of intelligence (or the difference between an emulation and the "real thing"):

Well, somewhat like you say, we cannot propose a valid comparison from one to the other without an understanding of one (consciousness) or both. It's fascinating that there are some open, valid and pressing questions about what / how the output of this new wave of software is concretized (from foundational, semi-statistical algorithms in this case.)

Yes, I do agree neurons have something to do with the "final output". But this is a subsection of the problem - organic neurons is-an/are order(s) of magnitude in complexity beyond what the tricky "parrot" is up to. Moreso, these components perform very different functionally - the known functions of the neuron compared to ANN, backprop etc. The entire stack.)

P.S: One interesting theory I like to simulate and/or entertain is that every organic cell in the body has something to do with the final output of consciousness.
Or you can help yourself in a few years when you forget you found an answer, and then you find a forum post that lays it all out and you read and think wow this sounds sort of familiar and then you look at the username and …oh, I wrote this! Such a fun little feeling, like time travel almost.

I implemented the Suricata rules and found some positive indicators outbound to 4 different Akamai hosted endpoints on port 80. I forwarded the information to Akamai.

104.113.24.20
23.38.164.37
23.63.214.115
23.64.100.151

However, the detection techniques on the host machine yielded no results (yara, volatility3) nor were any files found at the common locations on disk or in registry mentioned.

It does seem odd that virtually all of these are Akamai, leading me to believe it may be a false positive, which was stated as a possibility in the article. If it is and something suddenly stops working I'll report back here.
I am not. I treat it as I'd treat any smart human being.

> Does the reward only come after the racing? In the memory, accomplishment?

I started our ultra running because I wanted the achievements. That would never have sustained me doing it over the long term though. Eventually I learned to slow down a bit during the races so that it was less of a sufferfest and I could enjoy them more in the moment. Now just being "out there" is the reward.
> what exactly do you think that adds to the picture?

- Othernet is already a system out of local control that can be received with relatively trivial equipment.

- 2000bps feels perhaps a bit too slow, but with an order of magnitude more bandwidth, you could have a -lot- of textual communication. It could carry a big cross-section of what everyone is saying and allow people to choose what they see.

- An ideal system would support multiple transports; Othernet, intermittent wifi connectivity, sneakernet, etc. It would do the best with what it can to get data in or out, and allocate the scarce resources to the traffic which is most likely to be useful to others (this is tricky, with sybil attacks, etc... but I don't think it's necessarily intractable).

That is-- I love the interactive internet, but wouldn't it be cool if it gracefully degraded to still provide "postcards" and "broadcast radio" and a bit more as capacity went down, intermittency went up, and inability to return traffic was sometimes a factor?
It's a bit above mass media pay grade, but it'd be interesting to know if the average tenure in CA is declining . That is people are choosing to stay there for less time. the bay area (perhaps much of CA) has had the promise of come give us your youth in exchange for opportunity and great weather/lifestyle, and you can take away wealth elsewhere for purchasing power arbitrage.

I wonder if that gambit is remaining true, valuable, or viable?
Kind of difficult to argue it's a useless enthusiast network when there is 6 million gateways and 300 million end devices deployed worldwide. And no other technology that gives a better combination of low power use + high range.

IIRC the initial implementation of what became POSIX locks was cobbled together in a weekend just so that the author could submit something to the POSIX group but then apparently nobody else did, or bothered to read/argue, so it got standardized as-is, with all of its unfortunate implications.

> Frontline did an episode a while back were dentists were performing unnecessary major dental work on poor people when the government had a program to pay the dentists for such work

I haven't seen this episode and so don't know what qualifies as "major dental work." However, as someone who has had government dental insurance, I wanted to chime in with a possibly irrelevant anecdote.

This dental insurance covered few things, one of which was having teeth pulled. When I was having major pain and other issues with a molar, the only covered treatment was to have the tooth pulled. Anything else would have to be paid 100% out of my own pocket. So the only viable option for most people in my situation would have been to have the tooth pulled, which certainly seems like "unnecessary major dental work on poor people", through no fault of the dentist.
Why don't you suggest an example we can run and see what it's capable of (compared to what I, or other humans, are capable of)?
Then we would have a horrible culture of polyfills and transpilers. We would have code that gets shipped unmiminized and with comments that weren’t removed. Eventually, that language will get repurposed for other tasks such as server-side applications or even mobile-applications (imagine shipping a separate runtime for extra language in mobile apps, ugh) due to the growth of the web and the rise in the number of web developers.

That sounds like a horrible idea. I hope it never comes to fruition.

Are you trying to imply that there was no legal action taken against The Wire? Didn't BJP got The Wire office raided by police after that news report? [1]

BTW, mention of "The Wire" does not answer parent's question. "Why would Indian media be anti Hindu when the almost all of the 1. Electorate, 2. Government, 3. Corporations, 4. Media houses, 5. Rich are Hindu?"

Others have mentioned the ways that DOS was good enough or even better for some applications. One of the main strengths of a GUI wasn't being graphical, it was that every program had a similar interface. If your work just uses one program, DOS wasn't bad.

But remember that the people who use computers aren't the people buying those computers. They're purchased by the boss, and the boss isn't going to spend a single dollar for a better user experience, much less the hundreds or thousands it would have cost. This still applies today to enterprise software.

Andy Lutomirski described some concerns of his own:

> I consider the ability to use CLONE_NEWUSER to acquire CAP_NET_ADMIN over /any/ network namespace and to thus access the network configuration API to be a huge risk. For example, unprivileged users can program iptables. I'll eat my hat if there are no privilege escalations in there.
That’s because competition/antitrust law, be it UK, EU or US, doesn’t care about whether an entity is a “monopoly” or not. It cares about whether a company is engaging in anticompetitive practices or not. The market share is a red herring.
Totally agree. My forced time off has clarified that all I really want is the health to get outside each day and stay healthy. Anything else is a bonus.
Who's going to make seL4 perform comparably to Linux?
this is wonderful, thanks for sharing!
I love it. I previously used Sylpheed (and Claws, a fork of Sylpheed), but eventually got to the point where I had to reply to HTML e-mail and that moved me back to Evolution. In addition, its Exchange backend is excellent, which is good because I can't convince O365 to send me calendar invites over IMAP.
You've basically reinvented communism.

Yes, that's how we get "from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs"
I never used 1-2-3 in the old days, my first computer had Excel 95, but particularly what is attractive about 1-2-3 and similar software interfaces is that they can be controlled entirely by the keyboard and their input is buffered, so people can develop muscle memory and operate extremely fast, even faster than the feedback from the user interface (you don't have to look).

Since it is ported to Linux, you could run it remotely over ssh over slow and high latency connections with no issue. It also opens and operates instantly on any computer you can find.

The nostalgia is mostly about seeing what was possible withing limited hardware, and realizing we could do better with less.
OK, you have a point. But, if you replace "GPT-4" with "an average human" in your response - it still makes sense.
https://askhn.ai/meta_profiles?search=NGINX&order_by=experti...
dragonwriter and others here are both right. In terms of language, the terms are the same, in that you are a criminal if you violate the law. However, in many countries and regions "criminal" can be a way to discern that certain crimes come with specific punishments, like jail time or personal fines.

For example, in the US there's criminal and civil cases. You can't be incarcerated for losing a civil suit, unless you don't pay whatever judgement the court discerns (which is considered criminal contempt of court).

In the US the difference also comes into play in terms of who can bring certain charges against you. If you were to sue someone, you can't sue them for assault and battery or homicide, because these are considered criminal charges and only the District Attorney / the government can bring these charges against someone. In this case, there are typically parallel civil remedies you can sue for, such as "wrongful death" and "emotional distress" which is strictly to recuperate financial loss.
Thunderbird $4 million in revenue. Of which probably a percentage of that is not recurring? That's the number that actually matters.
Probably not.

I'm not sure that pointing out that LLMs are as useful for parsing legal code as the average human is something to brag about though.
> Brain damage by physical trauma, disease, oxygen deprivation, etc. has dramatic and often permanent effects on the mind.

That's not a completely watertight argument.

Consider a traditional FM/AM radio. You can modify it, damage it, and get notable changes to its behaviour...

> Of note is anesthesia which can reliably and reversibly stop internal experience in the mind

...turn it off and on again...

> For a non-physical soul to hold our mind we would expect significant divergence from the above.

... yet concluding that all the noises produced from the radio are purely internal, mechanical and physical would be the wrong conclusion.

(I'm not arguing that the human brain/mind is anything like analogous to a radio, just pointing out the limits of this approach.)
Thank you for pointing this out. I'd love to hear their explanation of how any given algorithm is "racist".

3-4 typical incomes necessary to support a household

This makes no sense. It sounds like you are talking about California. No, it doesn't take 3-4 incomes to live a middle class life in California. Yes, it takes two.
I use bower (fed with isync) in addition to Evolution (because near-instant searching of 15 years of e-mails is rather handy). My coworkers always send email that is readable in a terminal, but apparently customers have this thing called "money" which means they get to dictate whether or not I use HTML e-mail...

Just a random text I had handy:

起初我見到一碟芽菜同西芹，以為佢上錯菜，用刀叉掘咗幾下，終於見到埋咗響底嘅叉燒。

Nobody writes it like this:

起初我見到一碟芽菜同西芹以為佢上錯菜用刀叉掘咗幾下終於見到埋咗響底嘅叉燒。

Can people parse the latter (with some difficulty)? Sure. The commas are not required to the extent that you can butcher the sentence even more without losing its essential meaning, but why stop there? You can remove even more stuff from it and still retain most of the meaning:

初我見碟芽菜同西芹以為上錯用刀叉掘幾下終見埋底嘅叉燒

But that's not how people write.
Because no such track can be "good" and listeners are wrong to enjoy them?

Caveats...

If you have no users or no sales or have not figured out a repeatable sales process... you are wasting your money on tools or databases like this. These will not solve your sales and revenue issues. These are for growing, not starting out.

Go out and talk to users for free instead. Go find them where they are. You have a lot to learn from them if you have not gone the free route. You should be able to generate interest and sales without these databases. If not, you need to revisit your hypotheses and product offering.
>That seems to be what it amounts to in practice though.

In some cases it is. So what? Even that form of practice is valuable.

One can't expect the permaculture people to also stage an overnight revolution and reform society. The social changes I describe are needed badly, but they are outside the scope of permaculture itself.

Permaculture is is an important aspect of a much larger goal around sustainability.
Read about cardio zones, understand and internalize them. Then, do all of your training in zone 2. If you have to breathe through your mouth, you’re going too fast and need to slow down.

Be strict about not going anaerobic. Try to get 8-10 hours of cardio a week, with 25%-50% of that on a weekend hike, and ideally one other day that’s 90 minutes or so. Also do some strength training.

But volume is king. If you try to go too fast you’ll only train your anaerobic ability, which you can’t sustain in a hike. You want to be extremely good at going fast at a low level of exertion.

I’m nowhere near 4 mph at 15% incline. More like 2 right now. But I’m gradually getting there with all this volume, and I only started training two weeks ago for this season (before this I was trying to only focus on weights). I also plan on adding a lot of low intensity stair climbing soon.

Despite how much time I’m spending, my body feels great. It’s not like running, which beats you up.
It's less than 8kLoC, including what seems to be a bunch of tests at the end, although much of the actual crypto appears to be done using the native advapi32/crypt32/ncrypt libraries. (For those used to OpenSSL, I suppose this could be compared to the libssl part of it.)
JMAP doesn’t seem to have wider provider support (Fastmail, which created JMAP, seems to be the only one supporting it). It also has some pieces (IIRC, calendar, contacts) that are still being defined. Thunderbird supporting JMAP isn’t going to do much for Thunderbird.

On the other hand, if Thunderbird supported Microsoft Exchange natively (without extensions) for mails and calendars using EWS (deprecated) or MS Graph, that could increase its use in the enterprise manifold. From what I’ve seen, companies using Microsoft365 have been turning off IMAP (and POP), pushing employees to Outlook as the only option.
No, it absolutely is not.

From GP: " they may largely consist of performances of public domain compositions."

My entire point is that the composition being PD does not mean RECORDINGS of it are PD.
There is nothing in the behavior of cells that is reflective of human intelligence.

Cells are "amino acid robots."

They string the 26 programmed amino acids into exotic plastics/proteins to execute their programmed functions.

There is no relation to human behavior in cellular behavior.

At the end of an infection, most immune cells trigger "apoptosis" (controlled cellular "suicide").

At the end of a riot, police obviously do not do this.

You might find this Kurzgesagt introduction to immune system behavior interesting. There are several videos in this sequence, and Kurzgesagt ultimately published a book that is worth reading.

Hatred against Muslims?

Top BJP Subramaniyam swami was quoted saying "Muslims are not equals, so they don't need equal rights".

Ofcourse, because your propaganda says so? I've met Pakistanis in real life in the US, and none of them want to hate me or kill me even the older generation ones.
Also doesn't RSS, VHP, Bajarang dal do the same in India?

Both governments failed us. We're fighting because they say so, tell me on a personal level what you hate about them?

Most, I think Debian has patch to be disabled at runtime via sysctl. The reason is that most containers or sandboxing techniques are root only unless you mix it with user namescapes. So most container or sandbox software use suid(firejail) , root daemon(docker) or user namescapes (podman and flatpak). Looking at the cves, user namespaces is probably the safer option
Not necessarily. iMessage & FaceTime AFAIK are cryptographically locked onto Apple HW. I could be wrong, but my understanding is that each piece of Apple HW ships with a burned in unique private key that Apple records the public key of in it's internal database. That private key would be missing in a VM context.

It's possible my data is out of date though because iMessage spam is real & I'm not sure how that's done if it needs a valid private key that Apple can ban.

I decided to watch the episode on the Bronze Age Collapse there and... I can't say I enjoy the "Grand Narrative" style of presentation all that much. With regards to that one episode in particular, the final segment on the effects of the H3 eruption of Hekla struggles with the chronology just not working correctly. The presenter gives the eruption a date of around 1100 BC, which seems to already be on the early side of dates (mid-late 1000s BC looks more reasonable), but if you're paying attention to the chronology, it's well after the Sea Peoples start showing up and the Bronze Age Collapse has occurred (~1200-1150BC), so its putative role in inducing the Sea Peoples to start their raiding would require a time machine of some sort.
You’re conflating FU money with financial freedom.

FU money is being able to quit without worrying about expenses before finding another means of living.

Financial freedom is reaching retirement threshold (financial escape velocity): having enough money to not work anymore based on your desired expenses. That means having enough money invested in index funds such that you could withdraw the annualized return each year and live on that for the rest of your life (typically 4%).
> I might be cynical but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a ploy to get more people into buying more of their devices.

What really sucks is that members of society like you think that a government nitpicking on immigration laws to justify fascist harassment of a specific group of people is actually fine.
