Evolution. Operating systems, and more specifically, security have been constantly evolving.

Bad actors have exploited vulnerabilities and because of that there has been a bigger emphasis on security, even down to the hardware level.

One could argue that the sandbox model used in iOS and other operating systems is a response to that era of malware. And we’re more secure because of it.

Definitely not the case everywhere.
Strong disagree. If a long-running program opens a lot of files, has no references to them and they are not closed, those files will stay open, using system resources. There's no way for the Go code to close them. Yes, it's a bug to open a file and lose all references before closing it, but the runtime is doing the right thing by closing them for the program.
Thank you for answering, in a way it's a good answer since I looked for a book but none of them really looked like they'd fit what I wanted so at least I didn't miss an obvious one.

>I don't see any reason why thing must be different this time.

The difference is that AGI isn't a static tool. If some constraint is a limiting factor to economic activity, inventing a tool to eliminate the constraint uncorks new kinds of economic potential and the real economy expands to exploit new opportunities. But such tools historically were narrowly focused and so the new space of economic opportunity is left for human labor to engage with. AGI breaks this trend. Any knowledge work can in principle be captured by AGI. There is nothing "beyond" the function of AGI for human labor en mass to engage productively with.

To be clear, my point in the parent was from extrapolating current trends to a near-term (10-20 years) proto AGI. LLMs as they currently stand certainly won't put 90% of people out of work. But it is severely short-sighted to refuse to consider the trends and where the increasing sophistication of generalist AIs (not necessarily AGI) are taking society.

That is not true. To sideload an app a free Apple Developer is required. A 7 day limit is placed on that app before it has to be refreshed. If you pay for Apple's Developer subscription then that limit is increased to 1 year.

Alternatively you can use Altstore [0] and avoid paying for an Apple Developer subscription.

Disagreed, for VR/AR there are many issues that can make the experience uncomfortable or even sickening. The hardware and software are key to making a better device that is actually nice to use. Just putting on a Quest 2 headset is a tiring experience, if the battery is not drained again. Even small details like font rendering can cause headaches.
A lot of what those investors do (especially VCs on commission and VPs in big corps) is no different than gambling: they look at the founders, listen to their pitch and make a bet. Once big investors realise that GPT4 makes better bets, all those gamblers will have to follow that green Exit sign.
May you have more luck than me! If you figure it out, I'd love to read about it. The official documentation... leaves something to be desired.
Maybe because protobufs are specified in a language that’s different from everything else and needs its own parser and codegen? Also, there’s often more of an impedance mismatch with the basic datatypes of scripting languages. For example, people using protobufs will often specify int64 by default, when you don’t actually need 64 bits but need more than 32.

JSON support is often in a language’s standard library, or close, and its ambiguity around what numbers you can actually use can be seen as a worse-is-better approach.

(There are similar tradeoffs with not specifying a max length of a string. It’s awkward, nit-picky, and error-prone to pick a maximum, but there are practical reasons you don’t want to allow unlimited lengths in a UI.)
Those are cool.

Oh definitely, and I think part of the pushback is framing it as "writing summaries". That sounds like homework. :)

But I would just call it engaging with the ideas after you read. So talking with a friend about a book is just as good, and even better.

And writing a comment on a forum can be just as good, as it's an active thing too. I sometimes write comments and then link them from my wiki.

I've had a GoodReads account in the past, but somehow it seems a bit shallow and artificial ... almost a bit like homework. It's better if the topics naturally come up, but if they don't, I still find writing notes to myself to enhance the reading experience.

I mean you may spend 1 week or 8 weeks reading a book. I don't see why spending 5 to 30 minutes writing notes a few days after can be viewed as bad.

I totally agree with the author in that those 5 or 30 minutes is way better spent writing about what you read, rather than 5 or 30 minutes reading something new that you may or may not retain.

And again I'm focusing on reading non-fiction for retention, not literature. (For better or worse, I read WAY more non-fiction than literature)
I wouldn't count on that. It's anecdotal, but I used to occasionally visit Oakland and now I avoid it entirely. I see way too many violent crimes in the news and it's just not worth it. There's nothing in Oakland I can't do somewhere else and feel safer.
Hello (author here), I found the OpenAI tool (https://platform.openai.com/tokenizer
) for visualising tokens really useful when working on token optimisation strategies (and other token related tasks). But unfortunately that site doesn't support the tokeniser that GPT4 uses (currently).

So I threw together a stackblitz that uses the js-tiktoken to do the same thing.

Hopefully it will be useful for someone else too!

> Would it learn the fundamentals of music theory?

No, but you might convince yourself it did.

It would map the patterns that exist in its training set. It would then follow those patterns. The result would look like a human understanding music theory, but it would not be that.

It would be stumbling around exactly the domain we gave it: impressive because that domain is not noise, it's good data. It still wouldn't be able to find its way around, only stumble.
Reading the LWN post about why they chose GnuCash was a great reminder to me of why I chose beancount--all the other financial solutions out there did about 80-90% of what I wanted, but never 100%, and no way to get them to 100% either.

I'm not a programmer, so I had to install and learn a lot of tools along the way, but now there's literally nothing I want to do with my financial data that I can't. It's all just text files, python, git, csv, and json. I haven't encountered a single problem that I wasn't able to solve with just a bit of time and searching through stackoverflow or github.

I disagree. TOML is an INI replacement. They both suck at nested structures but are good if you just have a load of top level sections containing simple key-values.

YAML on the other hand is just as good at any nesting depth. I mean it's pretty awful at all depths, but the act of nesting doesn't make it any more awful.

> I did have two treatments

> Weeks after the second treatment ... I stopped getting treatments

This sounds like an unusual, very sparse schedule. Most ketamine treatment routines have many more than two doses, and nothing resembling multi-week intervals between doses at the start.

My wife has undergone ketamine treatment, and as part of it, I read up on the literature. Typical ramp-up schedules (like hers was) would be one or twice per week for one or two months, and then less frequently until you stop or go into "as-needed" maintenance dosing.

I'm glad you found other things that worked for you, but what you describe doesn't sound like a normal course of ketamine treatment.
I can’t tell if you are trolling me, but obviously “we made this single-threaded thing multithreaded” implies new algorithms that need new test runs
Naming it "Obvious" doesn't actually make it true unfortunately. JSON is still by far the most obvious format, and JSON5 fixes all the big issues with using it as a configuration format. I wish it had wider support. It's just so obviously better than TOML and YAML.

The original Feynman Lectures Website was feynmanlectures.info, which went online in 2006. The online edition of The Feynman Lectures on Physics was published there in 2013, and also mirrored at a new Caltech website, feynmanlectures.caltech.edu. Some years later (I forget exactly when) feynmanlectures.info was shut down and its contents was moved to feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/info.

I think we can just disagree here. But I have to assume you haven't done any significant development in Rust, or at least haven't experienced the freedom it gives once you get over the initial awkwardness. I find Rust is easier to reason about than C, partially because it's more explicit. And that its compiler is better than a good C developer. I've mentored many veteran embedded C developers who scoffed at Rust with a similar attitude. Within a month or two though, they all changed their tune and came to prefer it.
Spewing weird and disturbing DNS queries. I only noticed because it was configured for NextDNS. Shodan tells me it was 53/udp dnsmasq, recursive.
I think Google especially does it way too often. But I think to maybe make my argument more precise - I think it's fine if apps do iterative improvement of the interface. But what I see way too much of is "we've rolled out the new version of our interface, enjoy!" and they completely changed the theme, button positioning, names of functions, half of the old stuff is missing.....and that's just it, you have no recourse, no way to roll back other than installing dodgy APKs from somewhere. To give a simple example - TP-Link had a very well designed Kasa app for their smart devices, one day a new interface rolled out, breaking my presets, the interface is dog poop, some functionalty is actually missing - I sent them a long email explaining all of this, they just said "thanks, we'll think about it" and nothing happened.

So yes, in that case I'd rather that this app literally never ever changed - there was nothing wrong with it, but of course some designer somewhere has to justify their continious employment so they roll out these interface changes to basically have a job. I'm sick of it.

Reminds me of a story: My father's parents were Lithuanian, so I have their surname, but I am American. In 2011 I had a Russian visa for a short trip to Moscow. They transliterated my name in a way that I don't think a Lithuanian travelling to Russia would have. Notably, Š was С and not Ш because the diacritic obviously won't appear on my US passport. I think they also had И where I might have put Й.

Funny since their GitHub has more Go and C++ than rust, yet they get no credit when cloudflare is boasted as a rust shop by loud rustaceans.

On that topic, go (which is of similar age to rust) is the backbone of docker and kubernetes. C++ is the backbone of unreal engine, Google search, HFT, nvidia, etc. For everything that rust is used, there are a dozen others written in languages with less annoying fans, languages that don’t force you to do [manual name mangling](https://docs.rs/serde/latest/serde/trait.Deserializer.html) or [copy pasting](https://github.com/nautechsystems/nautilus_trader/blob/maste...) and macro nonsense to compensate for poor ergonomics. Turns out “rewrite it you’re doing it wrong” and “<convenient feature from other language> is an antipattern” is not a good solution when real money is on the line. Perhaps rustaceans should stick to what they’re good at (GitHub surveys and spamming threads discussing unrelated topics).

I haven't used ledger-cli much; I ruled it out pretty quickly when I was testing PTA software. For me, I loved the reporting and hledger-add for entering transactions manually. As I learned to automate my input, I started to appreciate beancount's automatic strict enforcement, BQL, and fava web front-end. Then I learned some pandas and was able to replicate most of the hledger reporting I liked with my beancount data and some python scripts.

If I were in your shoes, my only question would be: am I happy with the output? If you are, I'd stick with ledger. If you're not, fava is pretty cool.

It was not easy to convince the publisher (Basic Books) who licenses the exclusive publication rights for The Feynman Lectures on Physics (including the recordings) to allow us to publish them online for free listening.

I stopped writing anything like rust because rust its ecosystem is mostly complete enough , expressive, and rapid to prototype and use. To save my cognitive load I shelved my python, Bourne, JavaScript, etc, and just write rust now. It’s not a decision for everyone and I’m not here to convince anyone of anything. But my life is simpler, my scripts more general and faster, and I don’t particularly ever miss the interpreted languages. It took a while to build that level of facility in rust for simple tasks, and of getting over the mental wall of “python is for X and compiled is for Y.” But I’m generally glad I did. Except when it comes to coding interviews and none of the graders know rust and my Python is getting rusty (harhar) after a few years of leaving it aside.

It's crazy how slow it is to get anything done with Quickbooks Online. The site is slow to respond, it has very limited keyboard shortcuts, if you open it in multiple tabs to cross reference information, it's constantly logging you out of the other tab, and they discontinued the desktop electron wrapper that let you have more than one tab open.

Historically, a huge strength of Intuit was the huge population of bookkeepers and accountants who would recommend QuickBooks to clients, but I don't see how anyone would recommend it at this point.

> And yet here we are, with DTrace (CDDL) shipping in macOS, ZFS having shipped in OS X for several releases, and FreeBSD shipping both. Even Windows (on the "insider" builds) has DTrace [1] _shipped by Microsoft_.

That's why I personally strongly prefer BSD systems (OpenBSD in particular) and permissively-licensed software.

> That makes any argument that you can't use any of this stuff unless using Solaris looking rather... wrong

The intent was to lock out Linux specifically, otherwise they would've used a more restrictive license.

> [...] and the idea that Sun lawyers would have overlooked [...]

You're not violating the CDDL by linking it with GPL-licensed software, you're violating the GPL. Which goes to show just how devious that move was: even if Sun went belly up with no lawyers left to lift a finger, relicensing Linux with a CDDL linking exception would still be a massive clusterfuck. So Ubuntu & whoever else is shipping zfs.ko is risking getting sued by any of the half a million people who have their code in the kernel.

> In the case of CDDL specifically, even RMS [2] refers to it as a "free software license", though not one which is GPL-compatible.

You can also license your software even more permissively, but hold a patent on it, and not grant a patent license to your users. It would technically be free, but still released with an intent of restricting the freedom of certain users.

Always keep in mind that one of the harshest limits on PC design is the number of pins on the CPU.

I really doubt we will see GPIO pins available directly from the CPU, and if they don't come directly from there, there isn't much difference from using a PCIe or USB adapter.

Or, in other words, what you want can already be done about as well as it will ever get. The hype for adding FPGAs into PCs is for using them as co-processors, completely inaccessible for any other hardware.
I am not really sure if ledger-cli has any capacity to create compound units, so that if you say log that you have eaten one potato in ledger-cli, you would also have to manually log the calories and macro-nutrients of that potato unless you had kept a template for that potato's nutritional profile you could copy paste somewhere right? I suppose you might be able to make a "potato" ledger file with its associated nutrient profiles and just load it from a code block every time you eat one. Idk.
