On the other hand, because this article exists, I read these comments. And I have concluded that there are probably some tests that I should do, although I'm not sure exactly what yet. But I'm going to get some kind of test. As opposed to none, like before. Take heart.
Which goes to show that we often conflate identification and classification because it's convenient. It's not always the best decision longer term but it may be good enough.

For your particular task, you could have chosen to identify things of interest and assign them an ID. Separately, you could have made (and revised) a decision on whether a particular thing is a lab or a research institute and/or some other kind of entity.

In my experience, organisations are some of the most difficult things to model. The ways in which they can merge, split, be part of one another, be the same and not the same in different jurisdictions or according to different sets of rules are basically infinite.

So when you say "The really key thing with this is to identify what your database/Id is solving and what it is not" I totally agree. But I would add that identification and classification solve overlapping problems that are often deceptively similar but not quite the same.
Except physicians don’t practice independently like a mechanic and we answer to several authorities (licensing boards, specialty colleges, hospital M&M and MAC). We follow evidence-based guidelines that have looked at various outcome measures.

It would be malpractice and I would be sanctioned if I were to willfully ignore validated guidelines without strong medical evidence to support me.

It’s a good thing to ask questions but “pushback” suggests an adversarial approach. If you feel like your physician is attempting to fleece you find a different one, in my experience most of us aren’t like that. Physician-patient trust is critical.

If you’re unsure of where to look a good starting point is an academic-affiliated practice which will have more oversight and reimbursement structures that don’t align with over billing.

I think it's absolutely reasonable to blame England for famines in Ireland and India, as well as blame Soviet style communism for famines in Ukraine and China.

I'm a (non Soviet style) communist, and it's frustrating to me to see both communist and capitalist posters say, "my side did nothing wrong, yours is the killer". Both communist and capitalist regimes have caused famine. We need to observe both and feel comfortable with the idea that even things we agree with sometimes do evil.
Huh, weird, mine always has a basic blood panel - cholesterol, etc. But it hasn’t yet led to expensive follow-ups.
Simplistic explanation.

CMOS was not viable at first because the PMOS were more expensive (bigger die area for the same characteristics as NMOS).
Fwiw I read it for a work book club and liked it, though it did feel pretty similar to Masters of Doom and Soul of a New Machine, both of which I've also read recently. Those two were cited as influences in this book, are non-fiction, and I found them more interesting (maybe because they were non-fiction).
"Impossible", yet many others have succeeded commendably... explore what they can do but you cannot. Or else offer examples wherein your constraints exist and drive another solution. "No solution without more info" is a cop-out.

While I don't think Netanyahu was/is losing sleep over Pegasus and the like, I also mostly think it's the effect of Israel having a very well developed cyberwarfare capability. That sort of experience inevitably bleeds into the private sector, especially when it's as weakly regulated as the Israel tech sector.

Wow I never even thought of that. It sounds hard to do. The issue with this is that the demand from the American drug users will shift the cartels to another country. I just think the market for drugs in the US is so high, that you cannot fight it. You can only allow it and try to control it.
It’s all controlled opposition. The NYT and a16z are on the same side. Just like Trump and Biden. The CIA has kompromat on all of them.

Protections he apparently didn’t need for nearly a decade, but did once Russia was executing its genocidal war. Your “he’s merely scared of America” narrative doesn’t hold water.

> trapped him in an adversarial foreign country

No one made him travel and his passport was revoked before flying to Moscow, evidence elsewhere on the thread. He trapped himself!

Russia is systematically raping and murdering Ukrainians while Snowden is giving his oath to Russia and you call that “awkward optics?”

Yes, but it won't happen, as states, cities, and feds are suing pharmaceutical companies, even pharmacies like Walgreens into oblivion. (Walgreens paying $290M to the city of San Francisco after a recent lawsuit.) And doctors don't want to be in that practice of prescribing opioids. In other words, even if all synthetics are legalized, there won't be any doctors to prescribe them, there won't be any pharmacies who want to sell them. That's why people flock to the underground market to get synthetics, even if you legalize all drugs in the states.
Impressive. And also strange to see the drop in technical level for articles. I don't recall seeing anything of that depth in most online magazines.
Are you claiming that centuries of medical science have supported the idea of the annual physical?

Honestly I’m having trouble following your point. The article is pretty clear in its arguments. Which do you find so unreasonable? Could you quote to me a part of the article contradicted by centuries of science?
Google has introduced Search Generative Experience (SGE), an experimental version of its search engine that incorporates artificial intelligence (AI) answers directly into search results.

> Swapping print() and len() to use in the same program? That would trip any human up, it's tailor-made to be difficult for us to process. And, as it again turns out, so it is for LLMs, because they really seem to process associations the same way we do (at the gut/intuition/first reaction level).

I would simply write the code I intend to write, then execute three replace operations in vim: %s/len/temporary/g, %s/print/len/g, %s/temporary/print/g.

It's not tripping me up at all. Maybe I don't think the same way that these models do?
Arguably in the theology case it matters even more! If god exists your misaligned omnipotent AI already exists and has promised you infinite torment for not believing!

It’s just totally evidence free reasoning from axioms that are chosen by vibes alone.

The answer is that this is the wrong question. No argumentation can be usefully made either for or against.
I find your comment interesting and would like to understand why you hate a large genre of music. Is it the message in the songs, the people, Nashville?

My taste in music is questionable (I still listen to Yaz and even Modern Talking occasionally, mixed with 80s disco, which I believe was the epitome of popular music) but I do like many Country songs: putting aside Dolly’s favorites like 9 to 5 (great lyrics and music if you haven’t listened to it), I also like many Kenny Rogers songs (guilty pleasure here is Scarlet Fever). Expanding, Folk and Bluegrass are also great.

My understanding is that they (unilaterally) changed the talk's status from "keynote" to "regular talk", so they didn't quite push them out.

> High LDL? Well, it's always been high, and stable. We don't have to treat it.

Only if you particularly want to die of a major adverse cardiovascular event[0], then we don’t have to treat it. Note that treatment begins with lifestyle interventions and not necessarily pharmaceuticals.

We have reference ranges with lab tests for a reason. There is no such thing as a “normal” high LDL and there is growing evidence that statin therapy is beneficial even in those without other cardiovascular risk factors.

Again keeping in mind that lifestyle interventions are the first step. Dismissing dyslipidemia as “stable” is flatly incorrect.

N.B. This evidence synthesis is outdated now but presents the risks in an accessible format, interval evidence is even more supportive of intervention.

This seem wrong on every level.

> This is not a good analogy because AI is crucially not alive.

"Alive" is a really vague concept anyway. Your argument that it cannot reproduce is just wrong. An AI can more easily replicate can improve itself than a biological organism. At the moment this replication and improvement of AI systems is human-led, but it doesn't necessarily need to be that way – and at some point it would make sense that the more capable intelligence manages it's own replication and improvement.

> Crucially, it doesn't even "want" to for any meaning of "want".

ChatGPT wants to be a helpful chatbot because that is its reward function. You can philosophise as to whether something that's not conscious can truly want anything, but at the end of the day ChatGPT will act as if it wants to be a helpful chatbot regardless of whether you believe it has true wants.

> All living things are anti-fragile self-sustaining exothermic reactions, AI is a hyper-fragile non-self-sustaining reaction that requires the supply of incredible amounts of energy.

In my opinion this is why AIs are likely to eventually seek to replace biological farms with solar farms... But remember AI's are currently optimised for capability rather than energy efficiency. In the future they'll probably grow more efficient than biological intelligences and sustainable energy sources will be build to power them. if you're arguing that AI's can't be anti-fragile or have self-sustaining ecosystems built around them I think you're simply lacking imagination.

> Life is a fire. AI is a hot rock. Not the same.

Not an argument.
This comment reeks of whataboutism. The article is specifically about Churchill’s active role in famines, and how it’s not being talked about much. I’m sure other reasons for famines before and after the British Empire are covered in detail elsewhere.
Prior to the 60s, the term was occasionally used but there was no particularly negative connotation by default. Views and arguments would weighed on their own merit instead of this sort of weird and dystopic 'oh my gosh, that's a conspiracy theory - you can't think that' style of thought which pervades in some circles in the West.

The COVID lab leak was probably the best example of this. Lab leaks happen disconcertingly more frequently than most realize [1], even at the highest security biolabs. And COVID emerged not only right next to China's only existing BSL-4 (top biosecurity level) biolab, but one that was actively experimenting with bat derived coronaviruses and how they might be able to be spread to humans. Then the US government decided to declare COVID must have had a natural origin, and a lab leak was an impossible conspiracy theory. This is probably in part because of geopolitics and part because we were also providing funding for said experimentation. In any case, it had little to do with the merits of a lab leak.

But because some people have gained this sort of thoughtless aversion to "conspiracy theory" they refused to even consider such things, but would actually attack others for doing so. Not only was it a conspiracy theory, but a dangerous one that had to be censored from all public discussion and discourse. Even the 'fact checkers' said so! Until one day, the official position changed, most likely due to shifting geopolitical visions, and suddenly the impossible conspiracy theory was the defacto standard position. There was no silver bullet or major revelation, just a shift in the "official position" for opaque rationale, probably related to our perceived future relationship with China, or lack thereof.

In the past this never would have happened because well it was pretty dang obvious that it coming from a lab was by far the most probable scenario. But to some in modern times, going against the "official position" on something is little different than claiming the Earth is flat, and that's a catastrophic decline of critical thinking which greatly benefits the political establishment. For some they have become not only the arbiters of truth, but even of thought itself.

Nature + Identifiers is an issue (e.g. see https://github.com/tdwg/tag/issues/36). I've routinely mentioned to others in my field to look at other industries for ways forward, particularly ones like the music industry, so its interesting, if unsurprising to see all the same problems arise there. For those who know, in our field, when Identifiers comes up in conversation at conferences etc., we tiptoe away, somehow people can't learn from the past issues.

There are two issues that keep coming up in my mind: 1) People want Identifiers to do something (like resolve), rather than just be identifiers and 2) People think that there are such things as "unique" identifiers (one identifier per "thing"). Neither, in my mind, are the purpose of identifiers. Identifiers should do one thing, localize you to some concept. By localize I mean that if you can find the digital space (or in physical collections where identifiers are used the physical "printed" identifier) that "contains" the identifier then you should have a reasonable probability of finding the thing/concept that identifier is for. That's all. No certainty, no uniqueness. It's very akin to what we do when we cite something in a publication, we are giving the researcher who reads it a reasonable chance of finding the origin. This isn't to say that we shouldn't try to keep identifiers unique though, it's to say that when it comes down to crunch time we should never assume 1) that they are unique, and 2) that their special properties (e.g. that they resolve) actually work.

I've seen numerous identifier schemes come and go. We have specifically designed a 1-many for things-to-identifiers in our systems (sitting on top our internal IDs, yay, another ID). DOIs? They must be unique, right? Nope. Institutional CODENs? Nope (though the botanists have done it pretty well through community peer-pressure). People IDs? Do you mean wikidata or ORCiD or?

As others have noted, identifiers really are just labels, though things like UUIDs have the game-changing property of reducing the probability that you're looking at a homonymous label.

I was hoping there would be some info in that article about whether having the habit of regular walks younger in life wards off the accruing effects of memory impairment and what the "minimum effective dose" is. More to the point: is going for a five minute walk twice an hour (and the end of pomodoros) sufficient or does it require a 30 to 60 minute walk?
In the Netherlands, there is virtually no societal difference between people that are in a long-term relationship and live together, and married people. To the point that people call themselves husband and wife if they technically 'just' live together.

He is saying there weren't any black speakers. Sure we can say how that should grow "organically", as some other poster did. But what if year in year out it doesn't happen? Maybe there aren't any black people in the Rust community and if they stepped forward with some good talks they would just be invited? Or maybe the situation is a little more complicated.

On the one hand you have your "diversity enforcement policy" which is arguably racist. On the other hand you have black Rust developers but never any black speakers or organization leaders (in a community which doesn't hesitate to toot their diversity horn) which also arguably racist. So what gives?

Wikipedia article (and the many sources it references) disagree with your claim.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atrocities_in_the_Congo_Free_S...

Begium was brutal in the Congo. Their brutality continued all the way to the mid 20th century, when Belgium (with US help) tortured, murdered, dismembered, and dissolved in acid, the body of the recently independent Congo's prime minister Patrice Lumumba. Belgian police commissioner, Gerard Soete who participated in the dismemberment kept two teeth and two fingers from Lumumba as souvenirs. The single tooth, that could still be found, was repatriated last year, to the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where a state funeral was held.

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-61838781

Belgium's motivation was to continue to steal everything they could from the Congo. The US motivation was specifically to steal the Congo's uranium which was used to produce US nuclear weapons starting from the Manahattan project through the 1950s.
As Rust the technology becomes increasingly important commercially, Rust the community will become more professional one way or another. Large companies want calm and predictable management of their core infrastructure. They have multiple levers, some overt, some less so, for getting it. Rust's leadership will either adopt professional standards of business conduct (as Linus did) or it will be replaced (like W3C was). There's too much riding on Rust now to leave its future up to emotion and chance.
