> Generating new code from whole-cloth seems like an easier task for GPT.

as I've been working on a similar tool of my own and I've found the opposite. The initial task I've been trying to have it complete is to build something like https://craigmbooth.com/projects/killer-sudoku-calculator/ but with my bespoke requirements. If I try to specify it up front and have it generate the whole thing it almost always fails in a number of ways at once, despite the requirements being relatively straightforward and clear.

However I have had success by walking it through the process step by step along the lines of "please create an index.html that references react from a cdn. It should draw a blank sudoku board" -> "Please add a button that says 'add a cage'. When the button is clicked a box labeled "Cage 1", "Cage 2", etc should be added to a list to the right of the board" -> "Please track the currently selected cage and set the background of the corresponding cage box to green", etc.

Likewise, I added the initial set of functions it could access ("Create a File", "Update a File", "Remove a File") manually, but then I had it add additional commands ("Add a directory", "Remove a directory", "Copy a file", etc) and it was able to do it correctly on the first try each time because the pattern already existed.

> I see people talking about video calls all the time in the USA when working remotely

I work in the US for a company that doesn't allow WFH.

All of our meetings are via video calls, even though we are all in the same place. This has been the norm in my experience for over a decade now.

The place I worked before my current employer did the same, but allowed people to keep the video off if they chose. Everyone chose to keep the cameras off, except most of the management.
Nostalgia sure, but also preservation. CRTs have visual characteristics that flat panel monitors can't fully emulate, which matters in that a lot of media was created for display on them and only look correct when viewed that way, mostly old video games. Current AR headsets can't fully replicate it either, that'd require 1000hz+ high contrast screens so the beam scanout could be emulated. But it'd do a better job than a flat panel, particularly with CRT's more physical attributes like the thick curved glass and the layers underneath it.

Or, I dunno, they could single-handedly port Half Life Alyx. But I feel like the virtual CRT thing is more manageable.
Im not sure I buy the benefits of your scenario.

Abrasive behavior has side effects, so it excludes both good contributors and abusives like your definition.

The alternative is more or less silent treatment, abusives dont get engagement with their “contribution” because no one has time to waste on it. This also discourages them, and it doesnt scare off helpful but emotionally sensitive contributors.

This isnt to say you dont prefer the abrasive community! I just doubt the efficacy of that approach to getting shit done.
Most advertisements are annoying or emotionally manipulative. It’s usually not the case that someone is just saying “a cool screwdriver with the follow specs exists.” Usually it’s an advertisement sort of implying that you agree with some social agenda, or else implying that women would be attracted to you if you could afford a BMW, or something else. It’s similar to a lot of what makes social media terrible.

And composite materials are basically threads embedded in glue. Threads can be extremely strong in tension. In compression, you have only the strength of the glue and the fiber/glue interface strength, which isn't a whole lot. Composite materials are in general poor in compression.
Crewed submersible hulls are always in compressive stress from the ocean outside. I can't fathom why somebody would choose a composite for a deep submersible hull. It's just asking for a buckling failure. Bad design choice, IMO.
This particular heuristic will — self evidently, based on the article — result in you both missing a lot of very high-quality tech content while also revealing yourself as more than a bit bigoted… but hey, more power to you.
> You are the one coming to with the race thing. If it was a race the children would be practicing for hours a day. Meanwhile they practice when they feel like it and have fun with sounds and music.

> Sure but idk how you came to the conclusion the author has a different view on it. She wanted to expose her children to sounds and music early to increase their chance of not being tone deaf and missing out on music because of it (her own experience). This worked, kids had fun, one of them practice for "max 30 minutes", the other doesn't as he doesn't feel like it. How is it race, fighting for headstart or anything like that?

There is a particular subtext in this piece that I'm pretty sure you haven't picked up on. I suggest re-reading it. I am certainly not the one who introduced the notion of giving kids a "leg up" at learning music.

It depends on your use-case. On a higher-level OpenMeter focuses on the data challenge to collecting usage data from infrastructure components on scale, and providing aggregated meters real-time.
The other platforms you mentioned focuses more on billing with some metering component. For example Lago looks like writes all events to a relational database first than aggregates usage at query time when they do billing. Metering with a database has some limitation when it comes to scale or when you need to monitor meteres real-time and trigger actions based on them. I can see for example some combining OpenMeter with other billing platforms to have a scalable usage-based billing.

Well, then perhaps you need to reflect where your research failed, because it clearly did. Everyone is using Discord; from adult professionals to clueless kids who barely know how to connect to Wifi. So, if all these clueless kids are there, perhaps it is time for you to realize the interface perhaps is actually easy and you need to reconsider your conceptions of what makes a great UX.
> A file descriptor is a handle to a file, and anything you have an fd to is a file. This file carries a vfs implementation, such as that of pidfd, a device driver, or disk storage. The kernel does not distinguish between these.

Which is what I said. It's a "file" in name only.

> If not being able to write makes it not a file, then files stop existing when a disk is full, and means that /dev/zero and /dev/null are not files - despite being at the heart of the whole "everything is a file" paradigm.

Great example that showcases the idiocy of Everything Is A File. /dev/null and /dev/zero are basic parts of the Unix API, so the basic OS API is broken-by-default at boot until one mounts a file system that had these dummy "device" nodes at a specific path that's hardcoded everywhere.

Instead of providing a sensible API like memfd_create or timerfd_create, for example.

> A streaming socket is exactly like a normal file. You read, write and poll.

That doesn't make it a file, that makes it an object that shares common traits with file objects. Datagram sockets do not read/write because they're not bound to a fixed remote address. And that's perfectly fine. They're not files.

> The only thing that is special is how to create it, but that is a design decision, not a technical limitation

And it's a good design decision. The socket API is pretty decent except for the dumb "file" nodes it creates when listening on standard unix sockets.

> see the plan9 file based API for making TCP sockets, which is trivially implementable in Linux.

But thank God it's not implemented in Linux.

> ioctls are not themselves bad design. In fact, scoping kernel functionality onto file handles is a great design

Agreed, the only bad part is that too much was shoehorned into the same syscall. It's certainly better than magic "files" that pretend to be "files" by having you read and write structs from, but you're only allowed to read and write whole structs per syscall, which has no resemblance whatsoever to how reading from and writing to a file work. (Maybe Plan9 doesn't have this limitation and tries harder to keep up the charade, I wouldn't know.)

So by your logic, if I order a human driven taxi, and the driver does something illegal, I should be arrested along with him? Obviously assumming I didn't threaten and/or bribe him to do that illegal action.
No, it should not be banned. The drug itself isn't the issue. If a person took precautions to ensure they couldn't harm others while using the drug (consenting trip sitter who can physically handle them, proper set and setting) then they should be able to do that.

However they must also bear the cost of any harm done in that state. The problem isn't that someone took a drug, it's that they did X thing to hurt others. Punish X thing, not the drug use.

I acknowledge that this has serious problems because not everyone acts responsibly. But the alternative is to implement a system which removes the basic freedom to control what goes into your own body... and still have people acting irresponsibly anyway.
Took a long time for my partner to either understand or just give up on policing my chores. She didn’t understand why I would occasionally clean under the fridge or clear cobwebs if the kitchen or the floors were dirty.

I’m not going to ever get to the bottom of my task list. You know it, I know it, my seventh grade French teacher knows it. But if I don’t randomly do something from the bottom, then it will be five years and nobody has every dusted the blinds or vacuumed out the car or cleaned the cupboard doors because I sweep and mop the same floors that will be dirty again in ten minutes and call it a day.

I won’t clean the car again until the blinds are clear and the freezer has been defrosted, but at least it gets done once in a while.
Bard is much less capable than GPT4, if you're only using the free tier.

What I notice about Bard is that it hallucinates almost anytime I ask it anything. "Compare and contrast <two things that don't exist>" is a good one.

Prohibition in the US really did dramatically cut down on alcohol consumption. It also was a terrible policy with all kinds of negative effects.

So I think the takeaway is that 1. Yes, reducing alcohol consumption does make sense as a public health goal and 2. strict prohibition is a terrible way to go at this.

Is it correct that WASM probably won't affect most CRUD apps, since most don't need significant client-side compute or graphics resources?

But that WASM might enable intensive applications (e.g. cutting edge games, or 3D rendering software like an architect might use) to run in the browser, rather than on the OS, thus enabling developers of that software to make much more frequent updates (just like any web application)?

Straw man. If you tell investors you'll grow at 30% YoY for the foreseeable future, and raise money on that premise, you can't turn around after failing to deliver and blame "the modern economy." Plenty of businesses–most of our economy–run on low-growth or steady-state business models.

> For example, if a course already exists on OCW, the value of having another course from another university seems very low. Why would someone pay for another archive of a course at another university?

This is where you are sadly mistaken. There is no canonical course out there! Every course is different; every teacher is different. Just because a course on, say, "Data Structures" exists, does not mean that every person who's interested in Data Structures can just watch that and find it equally informative. Many people may not understand the teachers accent; many may not like their teaching style (speed, delivery, stress, etc.). There are so many variables!

Not quite true. Some LLMs are surprisingly good at predicting their confidence in answers (where a series of 80% confidence output should end up being right 80% of the time.)

Thanks for the explanation. To address this:

> I don't understand the people who don't understand Discord's value proposition.

As somebody who doesn't really understand Discord's value proposition, it sounds like it heavily relates to the needs of collaborative online gamers. I spend zero time on that kind of game, so my experience of it is mainly as an ok chat for open-source projects, but often used where I want something other than chat.
The whole world needs to slow down and take a breath.
I have taught machine learning in Java using Weka for a long time, and when we moved over to sklearn this also annoyed me. It made a good teaching point with, for example, decision trees having a dozen separate different classes for different algorithms in Weka and sklearn having one configurable one. I guess just design preference in the end. With aeon we are leaning more towards the one class per algorithm or algorithm family, but its not a hard and fast rule. One issue is when does a change in algorithm mean a change in class? So, for example, we have separate transformers for ROCKET, MINROCKET and MULTIROCKET (convolution transforms), but a single configurable RocketClassifier. UltimatelyI think it comes down to how comprehensible it is to a new user.
Tech is culturally obsessed with those Moneyball edge cases where the metrics totally contradict intuition, where someone is objectively brilliant but overlooked. And with their complements, incompetent but charismatic frauds. Those cases are certainly interesting, but I think it kind of elides the much more boring reality: relationships and reputations are earned, the most common way to be respected is to actually be good, and the vouching of other professionals who’ve seen your competence and character in a variety of situations over time is a much stronger signal than a few hours of systematized interviewing or testing.

> Shouldn't OceanGate have recorded the exact coordinates where it was released and then been able to localize its possible location to a small area around that by modeling ocean currents or something?

Modelling and knowing surface currents is one thing, but this submersible was thousands of meters deep. Deep ocean currents can be very fast, change often, and we have way less data on them.
Hardly the last hope. So far the only successful headset is the Oculus Quest and it was made by Meta, not Apple. It had multiple new features: internal processor, inside-out tracking, camera passthrough, very low price. The Quest headsets have sold 20 million units. In terms of features, the Vision is basically an ultra expensive premium Quest, combined with a heavier software focus on AR and finger tracking instead of controllers.

It is clear that Meta tries to conquer the market from the low price end, which seems to work, as there hasn't been an expensive headset (like the Valve Index) which sold anywhere as many units as the Quest. Now Apple doubles down on the high price end route. It will be interesting to see which price approach proves successful in the long run, or whether they both converge at some sort of compromise. I wouldn't say Apple's approach has an obvious advantage.
Do you have documentation of that? Can you prove that it was non-consensual? Was there a prosecution of human trafficking that followed on?

I ask because I'm not surprised at all that there's slavery among BDSM aficionados, but it is supposed to be consensual, and Larry himself asserts that every slave relationship is consensual in the communities he belonged to, as of 2017: https://www.garfieldtech.com/blog/tmi-outing

So forgive me if I've misread your implication that any of this was non-consensual or forced. You didn't say so, but you seem to be implying that.

> I seriously doubt the victims knew how risky this trip was

I'm quite curious about this, too. I'm not so sure. I think even if you are not an engineer, it should be quite easy to understand how under-tested this vehicle is compared to, say, a commercial jet airliner, and how much more difficult the application is at the same time. These were business men running companies of some size. It should come with basic work experience to reason about how proven processes or articles are.

I think it's more likely that the threshold for "you know what? let's take our chances" works differently for different people.

For example: I would never get LASIK eye surgery, safety statistic be damned, because the consequences in the unlikely event of failure are too large for me. And yet many other people know the data just as well and make a different call.
Language servers are slow. Nobody could have predicted this since on paper json for process to process communication seems like a very sound choice, if the geniuses at microsoft could not solve such a difficult problem then surely this was the best option out of all the potential bad ones.

That disrespects the other people's time. The rational thing for them to do is to disengage and let the lazy people fend for themselves.
