May I ask: how sensitive?

Sensitive enough to, say, detect the movement of something moving at a known frequency on the other side of the planet?

Are we on the edge of gravitation based communication channels?
"The government should do it" is (almost?) never the answer.

If people are willing to pitch in a buck a year, just charge them for it. Either you can find enough people to support it voluntarily or you can't. If you can, you don't need government, and if you can't, it's not enough of a benefit to force people to pay for it.
There's no reason to make a new programming language for LLMs. In fact, we might see a decline in new programming languages, period, since we can have the LLM output any language we want.

At the end of the day, all code is compiled and only machine language that's burned into the chip is actually run. All the other languages, operating systems, etc, are just abstractions over that assembler/machine language code.

Which is how we got to LLM programming in the first place. So the ideal situation is to train LLMs on a large body of all the languages we like and use (which is what the AI companies have done). Then we can ask in human language for output in whatever programming language we want.

Fun fact, we could even ask for output in assembler if we trained on that. But we probably don't want that because it would be hard for humans to read and debug later. So, any programming language is really for humans and needs to be written as much for debugging (or expanding) as for its original intended purpose.

I can’t imagine putting a CPU as complicated as the M2 in between my eyeballs and the road. It is too big and complicated.

I guess we don’t really know what the R1 does. It is hypothetically possible that there’s a failsafe road-eyeball path just goes through that chip, maybe that could be made as reliable as various other critical computers…

I already use the .gitignore file to decide which files I should ignore. I should also add an option to add more files to the ignore list as well.
Have you been to reddit? Or other places where political conversations are had?

Also let me ask, is declaring "The US should have strong border security and limited immigration" being "decent" because I have seen people respond to that exact statement with claims that is hate speech...

What about "There are only 2 genders"
1. You simply can’t do this in many fields, including wide swathes of health research. It’s a non-starter.

2a. Even if you could, see the OP’s point about research design. You need to understand the methods.

2b. Even if you could part (b), the raw doesn’t help you with publication bias. Your selection of raw data is going to be heavily biased in favor of the data for the papers which managed to be published. It’s not going to contain the data for the results which never saw the light of day due to failure to reach statistical significance.
There are large scale "public" or non-profit web communities like Wikipedia. They come with a different set of challenges around governance.
I have to agree overall. I enjoyed my Meta Quest 2 but it's sat unused for a while now. There were a few games that really were awesome (Beat Saber, Walkabout Mini Golf, and Breakroom) but the last 2 really only shine with other friends and coordinating a time we can all play isn't the easiest. This doesn't even touch on the motion sickness aspect. The Q2 further hampered by the piss-poor UI/UX on the Q2, it really is astounding how bad it is. Once you are in a game it gets better but joining a party or joining an in-progress game is a roll of the dice. When it works it's almost magical but the failure rate is way too high.

The resolution on the Q2 is also just way too low for certain games, I think a MtG-type game would be super cool on the Q2 (and the games I tried in this vein had /massive/ potential that was thrown away completely due to blurry text). In the ends the Q2 has way too many downsides and not enough upsides to keep me using it. I will be getting a Vision Pro at launch though, the resolution alone almost would sell it for me but the emphasis on AR and productivity are the clincher.
Reddit makes a lot of decisions that tax-payer funded entity would never be able to do. It’s one of the unfortunate circumstances where publicly owned social aggregator would be severely lacking.

I’m not even talking about Reddit’s one of the most annoying current problems - AI bots disguised as real people. Make it publicly owned, people will have more skin in the game to make it worse. Sorry for the bot rant, but anything other than hyper-local subreddits are completely useless for getting any opinions at this point. The same points repeated every day to advance one or the other point of view, making it a hell hole. I feel bad for people who take in those opinions at face value thinking these are all real people.

Rather than revealing the laws of thermodynamics are wrong, The Conversation has demonstrated their definition of “myth” is: that which needs iterative and personalized calibration to provide the best results is equivalent to fallacy.
So you want a Reddit that gives intelligence agencies and law enforcement full access, is censored by the FCC or some similar three letter agency, and is infested with propaganda and psyops? Where you'll be required to present your real name and ID to have an account and you can be arrested by the mods?

If you want a "free" Reddit look at federated and distributed solutions. But "public" means "controlled by a government." No thank you. I prefer a Reddit where even a sitting President can be banned for breaking the rules.
I am not proposing that anyone "need" consent for any of this. I'm saying that engaging in it without consent just makes you an asshole, as is true with several of the examples you just provided.

Yep, painting a pornographic nude of someone you saw in the park is creepy, weird, disrespectful, and yes you should be called a weird, disrespectful creep for doing it. Should you go to jail? No. Is there a (blurry, hard to define) line between disrespectful nude depictions and respectful ones? Yep.

This service, for example, is clearly geared toward equipping weird, disrespectful creeps.
> I believe the economics term for this would be that photons are extremely deflationary relative to labor?

Maybe, but I think most economists would say that technology caused productivity to increase to previously unimaginable levels, so today's labor can create way more photons than in the past.
What about public grants and partnerships with Universities as well?

I really think having open source software that is deployed and actively used by the University can give students real experience in improving and fixing software.

Surely if we can have tenured Professors we should have something similar to tenure for Software maintainers.

For instance Plutarch and Livy described one of the campaigns he lead in Spain.

As much as I want to believe that the truth is out there. It seems highly improbable that every craft that has crashed ever has done so in the territory of the small number of countries with the motives, resources and strict governance to recover and hide these artifacts with zero shreds of physical evidence.

I’m certain there are plenty of countries and groups that would proudly parade around a crashed UFO if it came down on their soil. Maybe these craft spend 99% of their time hanging out over highly secure US military sites.

Sounds pretty boring to me to come all this way to observe ancient technology.

One big issue with Reddit is that it is mismanaged. With the revenue they are generating ($456 million USD), it should be more than enough to run a site like Reddit.

Over the last few years they've invested heavily in things that are very unrelated to the core features of the site, such as NFTs and other odd things that are barely visible, while firing people (Victoria & the death of r/IAMA, and snackexchange) that brought a lot of traffic to the site.

If a Reddit competitor were to surface that treated the company not as a facebook competitor // unicorn but rather than a company that is willing to reach a certain size and then stay there, none of this would be problems.

There are many reddit alternatives, there is even a subreddit for that [1] :p

The problem is not the tech, the problem is community, or even better, the network effect. It is the same discussion people were having when twitter musk downfall started.

> We all benefit from it

The users do. That represents a small fraction of "we".
I really liked Aether from a design and user interface standpoint, and even accepted it as a valid use of blockchain tech, but it was also the blockchain aspect that hampered it. Took too long to do things, and required a desktop client. Plus, of course, the network effect of no users. I hope those can be (or have been) solved some day.
> I think a compelling alternative to Reddit would be a non venture capital backed company that is small headcount wise (think 50 people) and very straightforward about how it earns a profit, is sustainable, and focused on direct pay. No blockchain, no fediverse, etc…

> That means no worrying about advertisers (or headcount associated with wooing them, managing them, etc…), creating a “subreddit” would cost a flat monthly fee and then being a user of the site might also incur a fee. Like $2 a month.

With a business model like .e.g King Arthur flour where the employees own the business.

I would be so down to try to make something like this.
Yes, this is feasible.

I have come up with a plan that might get a Reddit competitor up and running. I have also started to implement it.

Step 1. Create an alternative API for Reddit (I've created an MVP for this here: https://api.reddiw.com)

Step 2. Set up an alternative front-end for Reddit built on top of the alternative API (my plan is to host it at reddiw.com)

Step 3. Start implementing a custom back-end, with submissions showing up interspersed with existing Reddit content, perhaps on the very same alternative front-end to drive adoption or one on a separate URL.

How will I deal with costs/moderation? Same way as Reddit did at the beginning: text only. With images/videos hosted by imgur etc. and each thread linking directly to a separate host for images/videos.

While I do have step 1 complete and it has got some traction on Reddit I don't think any third-party app has adopted it yet. It would be nice to get that to show the demand is there. Otherwise I might not pursue the next steps.
Right, the point is that it isn't the same kind of games that you play on mobile that interests people on a "computer".

Continuing from that the mere _existence_ of this _porting toolkit_ is an indication that they do feel the lack of AAA as problem at Apple right now, otherwise they would've continued their "Metal is the future and all other API's are deprecated".

They want to tell the world that the M1/M2/etc family is the best chipset in the world (or at least in contention), showing games like Cyberpunk running well enough on a basically cold laptop would've been a coup, but games didn't support it because even larger developers didn't feel like putting in the effort.
Arguably the two most important features of RISC, for the modern era, were having regular instruction sizes leading to easier parallel decode and having at most one memory access per instruction making the combination of pipelining and precise exceptions much less of a pile of worms.

ARM's 32 bit ISA was very regular and it mostly had a single memory access per instruction, but there were some like store multiple which could potentially save every register to memory. By getting rid of that in A64 and replacing it with an instruction to concatenated two registers and stored them in a single memory access they ended up in a far RISCier place than A32.
Is there any context around the quote? As far as I can tell, it's just been the SEC filing here against Binance and the earlier charges against Lim.
In mathematics, Graph Theory is the study of graphs, which are mathematical structures used to model pairwise relations between objects. A graph in this context is made up of vertices (also called nodes or points) which are connected by edges (also called links or lines).

This particular example shows a graph of financial tickers with links that represent the statistical correlation of their daily closing prices over a period of a year. Where the correlation number is between 1 and -1, with 0 being no correlation in either direction.

Every symbol in Morse? Easy. Every symbol in ASCII? Easy. Add accents, and now you need to ask: are these (1) unique letters with their own sort order, or (2) modifiers that go "on top of" other letters? Answers may vary by language. Add ligatures, and now you're also forced to care about character length even if you would rather not, e.g. ﷽ (U+FDFD). Emoji? Simple ones are fine… but the general case has ways to combine characters to make different icons, making them a systematic synthlang in the same style as Chinese and Japanese[0].

What even is the right sort order of "4", "四", and "៤"? Or "a" vs. "A"?

What about writing directions? LTR, RTL, the ancient Greek thing whose name I forget with alternating directions on each line, the Egyptian hieroglyphics where it can be either depending on which way the heads face, or vertical?

What about alphabets like Arabic where glyphs are not in general separate, and where they can take different forms depending on if they're the first in a word, the last in a word, in the middle of a word, or isolated?

What about archaic letter forms? e.g. ſ, þ, and ð in old English.

[0] where I will probably embarrass myself by suggesting 犭(dog) + 瓜 (melon) = 狐 (fox), which, though cute, feels like as much a false etymology as suggesting that in English "congress" is the opposite of "progress". Or perhaps Japanese foxes really are melon dogs — I don't know, I can barely count to 4 in that specific writing system.

I have the same thinking you do. I think it's extremely unlikely anyone would invest seriously in a Reddit competitor for one simple reason - Reddit users will try and flee at any attempt to make a profit. The fact everyone knows this means a competitor is unlike and fleeing is unlikely since there would be nowhere to flee to.

Companies want to use AI tracking to make you better at your job
Reddit used to have pretty low overhead. You couldn't upload/host videos directly on Reddit, you could only share links or create self-posts. They didn't have all these superfluous features that they have now like live chat, push notifications, cryptocurrency wallets, first-party mobile apps, etc. A "classical" version of Reddit would be a fraction of the development and hosting cost compared to modern Reddit, especially if you can continue to keep moderation the responsibility of individual subreddits.

How exactly is Reddit a "porn filled shit hole"? I don't see any porn in the vast majority of subreddits. Nobody forces you to visit the rest, and they are typically even marked adult-only.

Besides, are porn and racism really the only questionable things in social media? What about extreme violence, videos where real people get shot or blown up? Somehow messed up American society thinks that violence is quite okay thing for people to see, but nudity and porn are not.
> people normally respond with an implicit assumption that the technology is not good enough

Because it's not good enough and there's no real plausible means by which it will be good enough.

I mean this was a core argument in the Matrix, and many agreed that it wasn't worth doing even when the virtual reality was absolutely flawless and a land of limitless bounty.

And there's no tech in progress that has a path to that kind of immersive experience. Even if that kind of thing is possible which I have doubts about my great-grand-children will be long dead by the time it shows up.

That is the often cited copout that has no meaning.

"I feel that you can say what you like, just not in my living room" is a pointless axiom that provides nothing of value to the conversation.

The debate becomes infinitely more complex when you step 1 inch outside of the "living room" context and start talking about Public and Private companies operating platforms on a global scale all under a infinitely complex set of regulations, subsidies, and other factors

" I feel that you can say what you like, just not in my living room" seems to me then you want to translate that into "Reddit, twitter, etc can choose what people say in their living room", the problem is they do not have a living room, and attempting to make that analog is ridiculous

Put it in a low speed centrifugal?
While soldered LPDDR or graphic DRAM can go to higher speeds, currently there exists no CPU with official support for up to 6400 MT/s in socketed memory.

The maximum is attained by Intel Raptor Lake and AMD Phoenix CPUs, which support DDR5-5600.

So 6400 MT/s is already beyond the specifications of the current CPUs. Perhaps Intel Meteor Lake and Raptor Lake Refresh CPUs will support DDR5-6400.

I assume that when CPUs supporting faster memories will appear, the CAMM specification will also be upgraded.

The claims for CAMM are that in the future it will be possible to increase the memory throughput beyond what is achievable with DIMMs, but faster CPUs and memories than the current models are needed to take advantage of this.

Just wanted to share I think you're a superstar engineer.

Also from the links you shared it looked like some users on 4chan decided to go out and harass you. If they didn't know you are a trans woman, I'm sure they would've defaulted to calling you a n***** f***** instead. But they were going to harass you nonetheless.

It was very sad to see how things developed over a small issue. I'm sure this could've gotten resolved civilly since I believe you and everyone else involved in the project had good intentions and were doing everything out of love.
