This seems to become this year’s biggest unanticipated second order effect of LLMs: UGC and organic human-generated content in general is suddenly valuable in a different way than before. This should totally accelerate the move of “quality content” behind paywalls or signup walls. Only commodity content, low quality content, and AI-generated content will remain on the open web.
The parent is technically correct, you're not deported for losing your job on a H1-B. Your permission to remain in the US ends, and presuming that you leave by the deadline, you are not deported.

Deportation is a different legal event. It's a forceful expulsion which occurs because you did something seriously negative like break the law. Deportations are a big deal and a bad thing to have on your record in any country when it comes to your future prospects with that country.

To use a super rough analogy it's kind of like an honorable vs dishonorable discharge from the military.

knowing 0 is where water freezes and 100 where it boils sounds like a pretty dang useful scale for humans in all sorts of applications from science to cooking to safety to weather.

0f is what -15? that really doesn't mean anything meaningfully different then -5c or -20c its all cold and frozen where 0 being where water freezes and you can expect ice means something, as does water boiling at 100.

there is a reason countries who still generally use lots of imperial units have fully switched over to metric temperatures.
Tesla Gives New UK Owners a ‘Reacher’ Stick to Deal with Left-Hand Drive Cars
My guess is that the self-driving cars are a bit safer against injury/death per mile (we don't have enough data to know either way), but make stupid mistakes that inconvenience emergency services a lot more.

But we don't know how to make human drivers any better, and self-driving cars are steadily improving (even if that's slowing down a little).
On the one hand the failure is legit, success foiled by rampant vendorization & byzantine inscrutable tooling pumping out forsaken impossible to introspect generated code.

But also CORBA was maybe as far as I can tell the first programming tech to ever get canceled. That everyone went Vampire Castle on & decided collectively to crap on & lambast. What before CORBA had such a loyal hate club, was so bandwagon to disdain? It was a boogeyman tale, one we collectively whispered ourselves away from, even though most people had little sense.

It'd be interesting to try to dig up some of the old GNOME 2 efforts that did have Corba stuff in various apps & systems. Try to find some authors to say how they felt at the time. Go look at the code & see how it was.

The idea of having objects that can connect acriss boundaries is indeed super interesting. I love webdev & it's great, but we have noticeably not gotten very far in 20 years. GraphQL was one would be normalizing upstart, and ideas like resolvers have some merit, but it's still chiefly a state transfer system (which also has real time. Subscribe mode). It's still not really a well paved way to connect systems.

Even if we don't have distributed objects, just expanding the range of normative things we can do with resources on the web feels like it hasn't greatly expanded. Our efforts are still artisinal, handcraft by each team. We need to start figuring out, even if not distributed objects per se, how to grow the capabilities of online/connected systems pervasively.

>The fact Reddit didn't allow bad moderators to be removed played into it, too

I tried to "play the tape through" on this, and imagine what it looks like. If Reddit had proactively tried to implement some kind of intervention system to remove abusive moderators from subreddits.

It puts Reddit as an organization in a tough position, because they have to mediate disputes. And it opens up a bunch of other questions. How big does a subreddit have to be before they qualify for this intervention system? Does one submit an organized case like filing a lawsuit? What if the accused moderator is the only moderator of the subreddit?

And what new rules does Reddit add to try to curb abusive moderators? There'd have to be some kind of ethical guidelines drawn up. So now unpaid moderators can be disbarred like lawyers?

Every thing I think of (admittedly not having spent a ton of time thinking about this) is open to potential abuse. Even if you set the trigger to be a 90% vote of "no confidence" by subscribed members of the subreddit, the subreddit would be vulnerable to "raids". If you gate it to "you have to have been subscribed for X amount of time" the time will either be too short and leave raiding or create a new "class" of "landed gentry" that have a disproportionate say in how the subreddit is run.

So I don't know if it's actually a failure. Some of the stuff Reddit did early on, things like vote fuzzing etc... show a willingness to experiment with using the platform itself to enforce better behavior. They might have been able to figure something out, eventually. But then I think of really simple stuff that even Hacker News has implemented (ex. you can't downvote a direct reply to one of your comments) and how Reddit doesn't have that.

I was a TA for the EE course that all the ME's had to take. They kept trying to understand Kirchhoff's laws and do circuit analysis using intuition, using water through pipe analogies, stuff like that. The problem is, electricity just isn't intuitive, the analogies are not perfect, nothing in the mechanical world that we understand is quite like it. In fact, we don't really even know why electricity works like it does. I finally told them to stop trying to understand and just do the math and then they had a much easier time.
> If it's meant to mean a person of right leaning ideologies I guess that's fine, but most of the time it means a poor person of low education who happens to be from flyover country.

It is quite amazing how you in a single sentence manage to say it is fine to slur people with 'right-leaning ideologies' while also using the coastal term 'flyover country' for those areas which the coastal elites assume to be good for nothing more than growing the food they eat but nothing else and certainly not worth visiting - your coastal elite colours are shining through but in contrast to Cindy Lauper's song they are not beautiful.

Believe it or not but there is a lot to be learned and gained from those 'right-leaning ideologies', especially for those coastal elites who use terms like 'flyover country'. Society works best when conservatives (or 'right-wing ideologies') and progressives (or 'left-wing ideologies') keep each other in check to avoid excessive Californication or dogmatic stagnation.

You're inverting cause and effect.

> make stupid mistakes that inconvenience emergency services a lot more

Maybe. But human drivers already do this way more than I would expect. I’ve seen emergency vehicles stopped and blocked by human drivers who are either paralyzed with uncertainty of what to do or selfishness (no way of knowing what’s going through their minds).
The page you link gives a surface-level description on the area and common techniques. Any remotely detailed explanations on specific topics demand mathematical foundations to be established, which is the approach most respectable cryptography _books_ adopt.

If you allow me to substitute “ring” with “field,” the phrase immediately appears in technique-specific pages (see elliptic curve cryptography: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elliptic-curve_cryptography)

Undergraduate/graduate cryptography courses don’t teach from Wikipedia articles for a reason. It would be a disservice to those learning cryptography to discount the pivotal role of mathematics in the field.

these aren't random numbers at all.

0 F is the lowest temperature a saturated mixture of water and ammonium chloride salt freezes at. Adding salts to water depresses the freezing point until you can't absorb any more salt.

100 F was an estimate of human body temperature.

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

in agreement with the parent comment, F (1724) is no more or less arbitrary than C (1742). Pick the temperature of two things and divide into 100 parts. Liking one or the other better doesn't make it more or less arbitrary.

there's a lot to recommend SI units of course, it's a very neat system and wonderful how it fits together. but C was invented 50 years before the metric system was proposed and, while convenient, is simply an arbitrary choice, albeit convenient.

The german lands east of the river Elbe have been different from the western parts of Germany for more than a 1000 years. In the historical record you see a pretty sharp change in marriage patterns,land ownership and political structure when crossing the Elbe.

The enlightenment was less influential in the rural estates of the ultra conservative east elbian Junkernklasse than it was in the more densely populated Rhineland regions. Fukuyama has a nice chapter on the matter in “The Origins of Political Order”.

On top of that you have the separation, and the dislike of the GDR to foster critical thinking and the economic collapse of the east after reunification that lead to a lot of brain drain.

I took one of these in Phoenix, and realized how easy it would be to rob/kidnap/assault someone in a SDC. If you simply surround the car on all four sides, the car will refuse to move.

All it would take is 4 thugs to surround the vehicle and you would have to give up all your belongings. In the current world, you’d just run one of them over but that’s not an option in SDC’s.

This combined with the fact that the cars are easily identifiable and trackable via the app seems like a disaster waiting to happen. I'm not sure what you could do other than arming vehicles.
They're both guesses based on incomplete data. But it sure looks like self-driving cars are still a fair bit worse on the second. The whole "fail safe" thing is great for overall safety but bad for doing something reasonable in these edge situations.
Driverless cars won't ever road rage / deliberately drive close to bikers to freak them out at least.
Wonder if "barriers to entry" are knowledge contexts, multiple Chesterton's fences¹ for learning, that convenience would only serve to endanger:

* Hardware: how things fit together
* OS: partition, install, user accounts
* Static route: personal address to world
* Firewall: importance of default deny
* Domain Name: registrar, recurring cost
* DNS: finding other sites
* SSH: using keys, externalizing the self
* Software packages: dependencies
* Security patching: or else
* Backup discipline: also or else

The latter two surface themselves almost last in the list but could be the most critical and ought to be considered up-front.

What was previously thought as "haughty knowledge gatekeeping" turns out to be "a real concern" that smoothening out these friction points could lead to oblivious compromise.

I don't think this delivers the intuition in a simple manner. It's also not fully correct. People explain entropy in over complicated ways and even in this thread many people explaining it don't get it. There is a simple way to think about this and I guarantee if you read my explanation you'll understand it more.

In essence what you need to realize is that entropy is just a label for an aspect of probability.

Things tend to become disordered over time because disordered states are more probable then ordered states. Entropy is thus simply phenomenon of probability... of things moving from a low probability state to a high probability state. That's it.

That's really all there is to it. That's all you need to digest, all the complicated math and explanations are all just surrounding the above concept.

Entropy is just a high level abstraction of probability. It just allows you to explain things without the intuition of probability bogging you down. For example, explaining life in terms of probability is harder to grasp as it's akin to rolling 10 dice and having all the dice roll a 6.
