I have also heard that the Mac people (though possibly not Jobs specifically, as he left in 1985) didn't want the //gs to compete with it, and were unhappy with having a Mac-like GUI in color on the //gs when the original Mac was black and white. It also beat the Mac to the punch with better sound capabilities and ADB.

Jobs certainly had no interest in making the Mac compatible with the Lisa, and intentionally positioned it as a competitor - effectively killing the Lisa line. Sadly, preemptive multitasking didn't become standard in mainline Mac OS until OS X in 2001 - some 18 years after it appeared on the Lisa.

Apple also didn't want the Mac and Newton lines to compete with each other, much as they are currently trying to differentiate MacBooks and iPads. Kind of a shame since the eMate seems like it was an interesting system, and pen-based and palmtop Macs could have been interesting as well. Today iPadOS still has many limitations compared to macOS, in spite of running on the same silicon.

Not at all. My point was that while Einstein said (warned) that nukes are possible and while they were being built in Los Alamos, the lower key physicists,academics and apparently people like you were saying that nuclear explosion is impossible. It was the quite laughable. And it's exactly the situation now, Agis are being built and laymen are in denial.

> you're willfully misconstruing what I am saying and then calling me an idiot

No I am not, you put yourself in the group that makes x-risk sound ridiculous on purpose. If you do that yes. Can you make yourself a third person listening to someone saying: "important people said there is a chance everyone dies but I am laughing at them"? How psychopathic is this?

> If I believed you were operating in good faith

No, you are right. I have a back agenda, it's a dark one. It is about not everyone dying. Call me a backstabbing lying scam.

> why my life experience makes me suspicious of the personalities involved in pushing AI x-risk

Mistake no1: "pushing x-risk" makes no sense. Being afraid that we will die makes a lot of sense, humans are built this way. Some take action some laugh etc.
Mistake no2: Hinton, Bengio, Ilya Sutsekever that is the guys that built the technology you spent thousands of hours researching as you said. If you are suspicious of these guys, just get out of this field, it's not for you clearly. That would be insane, a physicist being suspicious of Feynman or Bohr.
The Lone Banana Problem in AI
In Germany, WhatsApp is ubiquitous, possibly because when it hit the app stores, a lot of people were still paying per SMS, but had adequate data plans, and offered easy-enough group chats early on that at least felt private.

Also, even a lot of Facebook skeptics have no idea they’re owned and run by the same company…

I think the shift to smartphone-based communication is part of a vicious cycle of people giving up personal use of “real” computers, making a letter-replacement email something more comfortable to conduct as a bunch of short texts, which also have the “benefit” of quicker feedback before having to reveal the next thought.

Even I spent awhile when I first got a smartphone (ca. 2010) feeling like what I typed into or read on the device in an app was more confidential than what I did on a full computer, even though I intellectually understood what an API was and that apps that communicated outside the phone were essentially very niche web browsers. These little devices that fit in our pockets, have cute cases that we picked out, and are cradled in our hands just feel less scary than a desktop or even laptop that can get viruses and throw up cryptic errors and chime accusingly at us when they don’t like something we did.

So now we all have these little tethers that started out being a lot cheaper than a new laptop (but now easily cost $500+)

Early motherhood is particularly good at providing compelling use cases for a smartphone. Baby spending 45 minutes every 2-3 hours leisurely feeding, frantically reaching out to more experienced friends (or your various moms’ groups) for help with a small but urgent problem - much easier to pick up the little device with your free hand than to break out the laptop.

So once the kid is in nursery school at 12-18 months, even if you used to be a laptop user at home, your communications habits have been thoroughly changed.

And since mothers are the main social organizers, their preferred means of communication will dominate. Absolutely no one was interested when I offered to set up a website for the nursery school Parents’ Council, and from the perspective of people mostly ok with Facebook and WhatsApp, I understand the many reasons why.
Or as mathematician Paul Halmos said: "Don't just read it; fight it! Ask your own questions, look for your own examples, discover your own proofs. Is the hypothesis necessary? Is the converse true?

Resume: https://bit.ly/3B3o65M (It links to my CV repo at Github, pinky promise. You can also visit github.com/<hnusername>.)

I'm not actively looking (hence why my resume link is obfuscated like that) but I'm at least interested in getting a feel for the market right now. That said, I'm willing to consider a position with a great fit for my skill set and career goals.

Here's my pitch: I have experience in a multitude of industries and positions. From improving legacy infra and processes in an established telco company to scaling a fast-moving startup from 200K to 2M users. In my free time, I love writing Code That Is Poetry but day-to-day I am not an idealist engineer who doesn't compromise. Well-engineered code is clean and correct but correct above all else.

Oh, also, I'm great at writing documentation. I consider myself introverted but apparently my communication skills are above average for Software Engineers. I also pride myself on my humility and modesty. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

I'd love to explore other technical positions in the games industry short of joining a AAA studio because (a) I don't want to crunch and (b) my skill set does not lay that way. I'm also interested in B2C businesses where the 'C' is software developers. I'd love to chat and network about opportunities but, to be honest, I'd like to emphasize that I am not currently actively looking so at the moment there might be a pretty high bar of what piques my interest.

Now Nauru is getting that money back via Australia's off-shore detention program! A bipartisan program by previous governments that spends hundreds of millions on private security companies to run private prisons for asylum seekers who tried to get to Australia by boat. (likely illegal under international law?)

https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2021/nov/07/cost-...

>By August 2021, the number of asylum seekers and refugees held on the island had fallen nearly tenfold, but the costs of running the offshore program remained broadly static. In that month, there were 107 refugees and asylum seekers on Nauru at a cost to taxpayers of $464,486 a month for each person, or more than $15,000 a day.

Imagine getting paid $15,000 per day... I guess Nauru is getting its P money back.

At the end of the prompt I tell it to judge its results against my requirements because I was afraid it would use real words, since it usually shouldn’t be making words up as part of its output - let alone making the whole output nonsense - so this is a tough task for it.

If you tell it to judge itself it is less likely to do the wrong thing. (It doesn’t like to end up printing “I disobeyed all the instructions since I used real words” - it’ll rework its output to be more correct. It’s like a cook, if you ask for a chicken pie and then to tell you if what it just cooked is a chicken pie it won’t bake you an apple pie instead. Unlike a real cook, it doesn’t have enough awareness to judge itself if you don’t ask it to.)

It still used the term isotopes. The original didn’t include any real words like that. So it didn’t really meet ALL of my requirements which said “don’t use any real technical words”. It should have changed it to isotrypes or something.

It is still a very impressive result. ChatGPT truly understands the prompt and can really think, as evidenced by its summary at the end, even though I didn’t mention that my request was for comedic effect.
Now compare the memory and cpu Word back then and a modern browser use.

The article fails to discuss WHO MEASURES the "productivity". Is it the company, or the worker?

Let's say you work 8 hours a day from home and you write 10 lines of code per hour. Your productivity is 100 lines of code / 8 hours.

But if you spend 8 hours in the office and 2 hours in the traffic that means you do 100 lines of code / 10 hours. From your perspective you are less productive (per hour) than when working from home.

But from the company's perspective your productivity is still 100 lines of code per 8 hours (which you now must spend in the office).

I built a tool that lets you chat with 375k user software reviews and ask about user pain points.

I put in a version of your question:

What should I build for restaurant owners to help them ease some of their operations?

And here is the first part of the answer it gave back:

1. One of the major pain points that restaurant owners face is the difficulty in managing and tracking orders from multiple delivery platforms. A software solution that consolidates orders from various platforms like DoorDash, UberEats, Grubhub, and ChowNow into a single dashboard would be highly beneficial. This would allow restaurant owners to manage their orders more efficiently and reduce the chances of errors or missed orders.

Learning needs effort, and that's pretty clear, but not many folks truly understand this. Particularly when it comes to reading, some individuals only focus on the quantity of books they consume rather than the insights they can gain from them. Personally, I prefer using my Kindle to read, where I highlight noteworthy points and then transcribe those highlights into Notion. I'm not sure if writting down the highlights is better than speaking them out, but I find it to be quite effective.

The concept of a "learning box" sounds interesting, and it would be great if there were an extension for it.

No there aren't. There's like ~150 cases of exit bans of "foreigners" in PRC in the last 20 years. Vast majority of exit bans are ex Chinese (primarily financial) criminals who thought western passport would protect them only to be coerced back into PRC to face justice. Or established expats who gets dragged into legal issues, especially with local interests. Some of which might be sus. Just about the only westerners rounded up and severely punished in PRC during travel are drug smugglers. Statistically, a westerner (not ex Chinese national) has less chance of being thoroughly fucked with in PRC than an ethnically Chinese scientist in the US via China Initiative.

On the two Michaels', of course they were spies, with the customary NGO cover. Useful idiots who lap up western propaganda love to think PRC... a surveillance state with extremely competent state security organ that completely dismantled CIA spy network this decade somehow needs to capture innocent westerners when they could just snatch up legitimate spies. There's a reason CSIS, Canadian CIA, publically celebrated their release on twitter [0]. Not to mention this tidbit:

>Edith Terry: Michael Kovrig is a friend, and I am very conscious of the privations he has endured. And while his background is complex and possibly included intelligence gathering for the Canadian government during his diplomatic career, he was very open about his research interests and contacts.

The other Michael ran NKorean pertaining NGO out of PRC. Connect the dots.

Like it's not hard to stay out of severe trouble in PRC as a foreigner. Don't traffic drugs, don't spy i.e. don't take pictures of military. Almost all the other small shit you get to drink tea with cops and sign some paperwork which is basically kid glove treament. The only real exception is journalism, hence most foreign media has left the country.
The benefit of 1:1 teaching and private tutoring isn't just "saving time" or a way to get notes for something, it's prime for understanding how to connect what you know and then how to apply it (synthesis and application). Also helps you know what your known knowns and unknown knowns are (and often revising something with your mentor will enlighten you to something that used to be an unknown unknown)

As quoted by Bloom: "the average tutored student was above 98% of the students in the control class".[1]: 4 Additionally, the variation of the students' achievement changed: "about 90% of the tutored students ... attained the level of summative achievement reached by only the highest 20%" of the control class.[1]:

Installing Oracle Developer Studio 12.6 on OpenIndiana: a tale of lies
Venn diagrams are a terrible way to describe join types (and, tbh, I don’t understand why Wikipedia has these) because it makes it look like applying an 1:1 relationship. In a M:N relationship „artefacts“ (for lack of better words) of both tables would appear multiple times, and the venn diagram obscures this fact
Is that like, meant to be a benefit?

This project feels a lot like “we could do things with blockchain because…we can do things with blockchain”

As mentioned elsewhere, there’s already PKI stuff for Wikipedia, there doesn’t seem to be a lot of point, or benefit? Just because there’s some sort-of-convenient infra in ETH land doesn’t automatically make that inherently useful to anywhere else, and honestly comes across more like a veiled attempt to pump MAU’s on blockchains/meta mask.
Threads isn't even a new app from them. It was discontinued just a few years ago. This is a relaunch with a more Twitter like experience.
