It’s all relative. The tech is still in its infancy, perhaps like AI was a few decades ago. The current landscape of PoS, applied ZKP, rollup sequencers, stablecoins, and smart contracts are all significant improvements on what existed 10 years ago, and much more practical.
Well, my wife has. It is 19 years old now, and sells goth and punk clothing. It turns out that decent spreadsheets matter for her business a lot more than her website.
Yeah, what an embarrassing failure all around. It's hard to imagine what Spotify was even thinking with their strategy there. They paid all of this money for Reply All just to give it away for free, then made all of the tiny little shows exclusives? And started cancelling shows because they had no audience?
Please advise CBP of this, because that particular part of the executive branch (and the DoJ) have a more maximalist take on the issue, notwithstanding the tenuous legal foundations on which which their claims rest.

Similarly “wake me up in 12 minutes”. But you get alarms instead of “timers”
AI will not have the instinctual drives for domination or hunger that humans do.

It seems likely that the majority of AI projects will be reasonably well aligned by default, so I think 1000 AIs monitoring what the others are doing is a lot safer than a single global consortium megaproject that humans can likely only inadequately control.

The only reasonable defense against rogue AI is prosocial AI.
As a believer - thanks for the insight! Normative acceptance of bizarre claims must feel odd. I guess there is a passing familiarity with some of these stories in some of these communities that means they are either unexceptional or at least, not the “main game” as supernatural beliefs go — but that must have felt strange!

Most faith communities I’ve been part of have had some form of space for questions and encouraged discussion about stories they have heard. I’ve found probably 1 in 10 people would start a discussion about this and maybe half would engage with it, suggesting community is a big part of the draw but also that for a significant minority, community is centred on some of these “big if they were to happen today” events.

I do think wrestling with our reality to understand the nature of the world is a pretty powerful force for creating meaningful relationships! But this depth can also be uncomfortable or abstract at times.
Feature or liability depending on the market segment. To a ton of enterprise customers this is a nightmare.
This question alludes to thoughts about front-yard design space. As houses get closer together, residents still want both connection and privacy. A raised area (porch, patio, etc), frequently provides this. With a raised porch that goes right to the sidewalk, a resident could move their chair close to the edge to talk to pedestrians or move chair away from sidewalk toward house for less talking.

The playborhood people did a similar thing to GP: "Mike also made another simple-but-radical move: In a neighborhood in which front yards are for admiration only, Mike installed a picnic table, close to the sidewalk, where he and his family often sat, so that people walking by would have to talk to them." https://archive.is/uLa77#selection-749.0-749.254
Here's what I can say: It's an accessory for the caravaning/vanlife scene. Nothing obscene, nothing legally critical.
Sports. I still meet with friends from middle school for volleyball games, and another friend of mine hosts a weekly soccer game. We usually go out for tacos afterwards. It's a great time
> Moreover, I hope nobody after age 29 actually lives and breathes code, even if they really like programming

Why 29, that feels like a really arbitrary cutoff.

Are people in their 20s not allowed work-life balance?

I've got a similar situation here in Baltimore. The community I'm a part of here is like nothing I've ever experienced. We actually have a neighborhood telegram chat of ~70 people where we post about neighborhood events, parties, etc. My wife and I have a great circle of friends within this community and it led us to buy a house a few years back(before the market got all wild). We just had our first kid, and there's plenty of other newborns popping up so I'm looking forward to seeing them all grow up together!
Funny this is popping up today. I was just listening to his Nobel Prize acceptance speech [1] this morning. Beautiful text on the role and responsibilities of artists in our societies.

same, I'm a paying customer and liked it. I don't have 'production' level demands but was doing lots of prototyping and testing of ideas. Very easy to use and reliable enough to count on.

Stinky.
Hmm these all require command lines. The one I'm looking for is for "non-hackers" with a simple user interface.
> It should be required reading for anyone interested in how people (and states) respond to the outbreak of an epidemic (which today, includes everyone).

It should not. I think a more modern writer would do a much better job of capturing the essence of Covid and probably future epidemics. Exile and deprivation were much less of a concern in a world with the internet.
20 year olds should maybe get advice from more grounded 25 year olds. This particular one appears to be vain, shallow, and incurious.
I'm in Germany. Not sure about the whole legal thing, I think even talking to a lawyer would probably be more expensive than just moving on. Which is kind of "giving up", but yeah...
They’ve helped in some cases but in others it’s entirely confusing (or nonexistent).
Not very good at the google are we.

Also remember much of my time was in defense thinktanks. Not everything that gets written gets published.

For example a good deal of my input on the UK RCDS “Global Cyber Game” report didn’t make it into the unclass version. Likewise a lot of my work for the US office of the secretary of defense is not particularly well known.

I’ve been places. I’ve done things. The fact you don’t seem to understand how to read the runes is your limitation, not my track record.
For anyone else frustrated, a quick workaround is to do Ctrl+FK instead of Ctrl+K on offending websites. Focuses the browser UI's search input which then makes the Ctrl+K bubble up from the browser UI instead of the website's document tree.
Entering the US illegally is not a crime unless you were previously subject to US jurisdiction; technically it's an administrative violation.

The difference is vast and somewhat irritating to those with GPT-4 access today, but it’s also besides the point. The only people who deserve to cringe at the conflation are OpenAI’s marketing team, but even they may take solace in the sheer cut-through of column inches their cloven brand obtains, no doubt anticipating a future retirement of GPT-3.
> eliminating sectors of emissions will make room in the ETS system for more essential uses

I'm worried it might make room for less essential uses. Each buyer removed from the market, lowers the market price. So it will bring back the buyers that were previously priced out.

Yes, this does presume that the maximum price a buyer is willing to pay, corresponds to how "essential" their use is. But I guess that's the premise of ETS.
Generative Algorithms perhaps?
I'm not a passionate developer either, but I am a passionate problem solver, and I happen to have an expertise in solving problems with code.

That doesn't mean, however, I prefer to solve problems with code, just that it's the skill I've developed the most. My joy comes from seeing someone who had a pain no longer have that pain.

I'm of the opinion that if more developers thought of themselves this way, we'd sidestep a lot of the angst and consternation around the actual development process. No longer would it be about The Best Code, instead the team would focus on The Best Solution, and the new question would be, "How can we build something that can be worked with over time?"
The average "technology professional" in the US made about $104,566 in 2021. Certainly not bad, but not "save half your money" good, if you have... like, a life, and a family. Maybe if you're single and don't do much, and live in a low COL area.

People in the SV/fintech sphere tend to have a really skewed idea of what typical salaries are for people "working in tech". What they really mean is "FAANG(-alike) and fintech", not "tech". They're in the third hump of the trimodal distribution of developer salaries, and may have some inaccurate ideas about the rest of the market, as a result.

(BLS gives me a median of ~$97k in 2021, if you're wondering if there's a big difference between the average and the median)
I think that being a "cool person" aligns with not wearing things that others would find offensive.

Unless you know the target audience well enough that it would be well received. Carry on then.
Did you really expect ChatGPT to be a full blown dungeon master?
thanks! looks like it's also open source as well.
AI may be. But current neural nets are simply an advanced template generators, unable to "solve" any unsolved problem. I guess this would be featured on his list of "50 things I've learned the hard way before 50" :)

Overall the list reads exactly how I would expect an ambitious 25 year old would write. A little bit of generic health advice, a little bit of latest hyped tech (5 years ago he would have wrote decentralized finance, or DAOs I guess), a little bit of bragging (here I'm founding companies at 25 and teach people to do so properly). This is a like every intro to a self help books or modern biographies.
> There are surely cases in life in which you know for sure that crime is being committed

These are the cases of having evidence, right? Which should be reported.

> I should be able to run my business according to those ethical choices. My company isn't sending someone to jail. They are just refusing to accept a payment. There is no need for due criminal process to refuse a payment.

And if two or three large businesses cover 99% of a given market (payment market), how about some anti-monopolistic legal protections? Them colluding to stop the meat industry, continuing your example, would be a monopolistic practice.
Engagement is not always easy. You've had other public figures, but they want to be public figures. There could be a myriad of reasons for her turning you down from not caring, being busy, not liking you personally, not wanting to be more public than she already is. That she has posted something about the topic is not a compelling argument that she must take it further. I think you posting about it and posting the email was disrespectful. Although it has given us some insight into your mind.
Once you learn that parables may exist and are never literal, but can still impart wisdom, it makes more sense.
In a typical evening, how many neighbors walk by?

I used to live in a suburb with literally 10x the density, and the only time I ever saw my immediate neighbors was if we both happened to be walking from our front doors to our cars at the same time.
> current landscape of PoS, applied ZKP, rollup sequencers, stablecoins, and smart contracts are all significant improvements on what existed 10 years ago, and much more practical.

To what practical end?

I think exploration should continue. But in the academic, not product, space. Crypto has the potential to be toxic. Licensing regimes for potentially-toxic products is highly precedented.
I don't see that quote on the cover of either 1st or 2nd edition of MechWarrior unfortunately. It does sound like something that would have been on some BT book however.
> lets say you have a cellphone sized device that runs on battery power for 24 hours that can support a general intelligence

I can accept that it would be hard to turn off. What I find difficult to accept is that it could exist. What makes you think it could?
Cool project for desktop! Can you export the results?
> The part you're making might have some legal issues?

Well, then they should tell me and we can figure that out. Or come to the conclusion that this part should not be sold on Etsy. That would be fine for me, too.

But this generic "we won't tell you, but we'll keep your money, now fuck off" attitude really sucks.
Then just wave and move on, GP and his wife will not sequestrate you to make you mingle.
I find the hooks so much easier to use than e.g. Google's ViewModel solution in Jetpack. They are just a joy to use.
When this has happened to me, it's been about ensuring the device can turn on at all, they don't investigate what's on it.
I'm passionate about the end product, but a lot of the work is

R E A L L Y , R E A L L Y B O R I N G .

That's as it should be.

Shipping a product (as opposed to "writing code"), has a lot of repetitive, silly stuff.

I just spent the last half-hour, making one-pixel tweaks on the presentation of table headers in my app, to accommodate the designer's wishes. He's come up with an excellent aesthetic, and the app will be great.

I’d be interested to know if NakedJSX works for you. I released it about 6 hours ago and I'm looking for feedback. It allows you to use JSX (without React) to generate static HTML, and also to create DOM nodes in client JavaScript, and without any of the client side ‘framework’ stuff of React. You have full control over what happens when.

EDIT: clarity
This is interesting. At the beginning of the document, we read that Susan Varghese, representing the estate of George Varghese, "appeals the district court's dismissal of her wrongful death claim". However, in the "Factual background" section, we read about someone named Anish Varghese who is alleging a breach of contract due to being denied boarding on a flight and having to purchase another ticket.
> It's also hard to explain it to people who lack imagination.

Be careful about assuming that people who disagree with your predictions do so because they lack imagination.
Could try selling on eBay and Facebook Marketplace, and find places to spread the word about the listings. There are vanlife Facebook groups that are specifically for sharing things you are selling.
As commented somewhere else: Not sure if this would be worth it at all.
It is weird to hight this as feedback. Choosing very common names for a product intended for a global audience. How is that weird?
> So while none of us can rule out data corruption due to cosmic rays and similar causes, the chance of that happening appears extremely remote

I don't buy that.

- a process opaque to us.

- seems to be not failing at scale enough to make it to press.

- therefore the chance of [random data corruption] is remote

versus ex. [in 2016](https://physicsworld.com/a/cosmic-challenge-protecting-super...), couple UK PhDs laboriously chart 55,000 bit flip errors on a 100 node cluster.
One feature they have that Jira does not: the ability for a customer to avoid multi-week outages. Jira went down for some customers and took weeks to restore. A customer could avoid this possibility by hosting locally, but I hear Jira is phasing out local hosting while Plane lists it as a feature.

Another feature Plane probably has: not being horribly laggy. You could make a ticket in Jira with a bunch of links or whatever the hell it is that makes Jira load so slowly, and make an identical ticket in Plane, and compare the loading times. From my Jira experiences it shouldn't be hard to be 10x faster.

You really need to spell it out anyway. If you get back on Etsy it won't be long before you have copycats to compete with regardless of what you say here, and avoiding being specific doesn't help anyone here help you.

Aside from what your parent said (which is 100% accurate), we can't give you any suggestions on what might've flagged the algorithm if we don't know the contents of your listings.
Not related, as politics are a disagreement about forms of reality. Religion necessitates you believe in something beyond reality.

Mandatory Certification Regarding Generative Artificial Intelligence
> In all my jobs, I could not tell the difference between the "passionate" devs and the "9-5" devs. Both produced quality work (when they were quality people). Best dev I've worked with went home at 5 without his laptop and didn't keep up with any news unless it would solve a problem we had a work.

How did you know if they were "passionate" or not? I don't think being "9-5" is a good litmus test. Maybe an indicator, but far away from a certain one.

For example, I can be very passionate about things, but I've also learned to timebox and not burn myself out over the years. (Or at least to recognize the signs, and take the proper steps when applicable, along with some precautions like counteracting when I work too long or hard on something.)

Other than that, I don't know if people who are passionate about something necessarily let on how passionate they are, especially to any random coworker. It's much more obvious with hobbies, since you chose to sink a portion of your time into it.

Most scenes I'm aware of have some kind of real-life community.

Board Games has PAX. Anime conventions (ie: Cosplay accessories) have Anime Expo, Otakon, etc. etc. There's more conventions than I can keep up with these days. Almost every single one has an "Artist Ally" or other small shop where you can hawk unique goods to people.

It really depends on your niche. Maybe a state fair (farmers?) is where you set up shop. Etc. etc. I'd honestly try to setup at those places first these days to test out a product idea.

I'd say yes in some ways, no in others.

The yes is that yes, judges generally have pretty wide discretion in applying any given rule, and they apply their own sense of what's reasonable given the circumstances. They're more likely to go out of their way to help a pro se litigant who's making a good effort and bend the rules to make things move along fairly.

The no is that judges are allowed to impose their own 'local rules' about little things like how many holes should be punched in the filings submitted to them. If you fuck these up they are generally sticklers for them and get unreasonably (From our perspective as lawyers) upset about this.

The other call out is the sentencing guidelines in criminal law. You can google it, but there's been some controversy and history about how much judges can 'deviate' from the sentencing guidelines when giving convicted criminals their jail time.

I’m not so sure that anybody is going to go out their way to compete with you on this
I feel like we are in the 40s when everyone was talking about the “atomic age”, or the late 90s with internet. Fission technology did change the world, but not the way people expected, and not to the extent they were hoping in the areas they thought about most (energy prices). Internet has honestly lived up to expectations and more, but it took longer than people expected, and at least right now it’s way more centralized than anybody had ever guessed it would become.

Personally I think AI is going, over decades, to lead to huge changes on par with the invention of the computer and Internet, but like the computer and internet, it will be more gradual than we think. It’s already happening and we aren’t at the beginning, we’re just near some kind of dotcom-style inflection point IMO. Don’t get too caught up in the hype!

Anyway, the problem I have with posts like these is they simplify and confidently state things that take asymmetrically large amounts of text to refute or refine, because there are several other points (like blanket suggesting 2meals/day) I take issue with, and others I really like (renting/going carless) but are presented without the context or reasoning to justify them. Most of these points would require their own post to do them justice IMO
Yes, let's compare crypto to the Internet.

Bitcoin (i.e. crypto ubiquity) is 14 years old.

Equivalent Internet ubiquity was circa 1996, so let's say its 14-year equivalent is 2010.

Does crypto of today look like the Internet did in 2010, in terms of adoption, support, platform, infrastructure?

No.

The reality is that crypto is a neat value instrument. Nothing more.

P.S. in my years of trying to persuade people in a discussion, I have found that overwhelming them with information only serves to make me appear insecure, ultimately weakening my argument. In my experience.
Etsy went down the enshittification path a long time ago. The real sad thing is the formerly good competition they once had they relentlessly bought up and enshittified it too, like Reverb.

It seems that you don't know what you don't know, really.

There's no way to definitively know what properties ChatGPT has. It does seem to reason to some extent and it does often say that some information isn't known/there's no data. And it almost obnoxiously often tells you that it's simplifying a complex and multifaceted situation.
