This does imply some innovation is needed in how taxation happens. That is also something Sam Altman agreed with in his piece. This is an easy and simple problem to solve and all the leadership at that level has agreed on the spirit of the query as far as I've seen in their commentaries. I highly recommend it if you haven't read it yet, it's really good:

I think once tens of millions of jobs are going away and everyone needs to retrain into the types of work that are still available, we'll pretty seamlessly be able to transition into a UBI model where everyone affected becomes a college student or learns a trade or craft again, with UBI making it a graceful and exciting Great Reset without anyone falling by the wayside. Because at that point, the real economic efficiency gains still exist except at a marginal cost of effectively 0. This means that with automation you can just print what you need and everyone's standard of living skyrockets.

This is because commodities are plentiful on a big planet like this one and others.

I think the "BS jobs" concept is missing the mark a little. Those aren't BS jobs. They're just the jobs that have been most visibly automated the fastest. They may still retain, say, 25% of the useful and necessary functions that those roles require. But because of how culture and legislation lag behind technology in rate of adoption, people still feel the need to put up with appearances of working a specific amount of time or quota in order to placate someone who only counts the beans so to speak.

Tens of millions of people enjoying a Great Reset is a beautiful and achievable outcome if we do it properly.

When everyone is affected, we will just work on art, music, self-improvement, learning for joy, and spending time with loved ones. And making more loved ones. This will happen.
You might doubt it, but companies are doing it, and they're facing the consequences. Uncompetitiveness. Companies are led by irrational people who learned how to manage in the 90s and care more about keeping things the same than actually making their place of work succeed.

Terra wasn't one of the tokens you mentioned, and in any case —while fatally flawed in its design— was substantially less obvious in its shortcomings than so many of the projects that successfuly raised capital in 2016.

As for Gemini, it did traditional lending. Coinbase Lend used Compound to do algorithmically enforced loans that are over-collateralized. Compound, along with every other well-regarded DeFi app, survived the crash with all loans paid back.

In any case, if you're looking for anecdotes negating my point, you can find them. The point I'm making is that a much higher proportion of large token sales were baseless in 2016 than in 2018. I observed rapid improvement. I did not say that by 2018, every investor was sophisticated, and every project that raised capital was well-run, or responsible with the investment capital they received.
AI and the Frontier Paradox
Aside from drugs and mental issues, it seems like letting people live in the streets invites others to the lifestyle. Locally we had a man build a home on the sidewalk and brag about what a great job he had done. He thought that the public sidewalk was a place where he could build as he pleased. Some people believe that it's ok to do whatever they want in the common areas of out cities. There's also the constant problems that are associated with sharing a space with others. We, as a society, have made it unpopular for large families to live in one place. So, the less one lives with others the less likely you will ever want to live with someone in general. It's much better to live on your own even if it means living on the street for some.

It's next to impossible to give everyone their own home in large cities so we have to think about building homes in the outskirts of cities and ban people from living in the common areas of our cities.

Los Angeles is spending millions to house people in hotels. Spending that much tax money can't continue forever not to mention the fact that it's not fixing the problem. Living alone in your own home where ever you want is not something the taxpayers can or will fund forever. We need to make some hard decisions and it's not providing a forever home for everyone that wants to live alone.
That's one of the most jargon-dense sentences I've ever read
The desktop app is the biggest missing piece IMO. Hosting updates from various government agencies (weather services, transit agencies, etc), is the thing that Twitter is (was?) really good at.

Without a desktop app, though, no agency would ever consider posting updates to it; the app means it exists in a weird silo.
Leaks also happen accidentally, e.g. by employees copy-pasting sensitive data or code into ChatGPT or using Copilot. Although that may not result in a breach, it certainly opens up legal and IP concerns for Google.
We're very much in agreement.

The whole 'null pointer style strings' makes no sense, I think they want to say 'nul terminated'. But fine.

Your examples are excellent, let me add a few more:

Big endian? Little endian? Do we count characters or bytes? Who owns the bloody thing? Can they be modified in place? Are they in ROM or RAM? Automatic? Static? Can they be transmitted over a network 'as is' or do they need to be sent via some serialization mechanism? What about storing them on disk? And can they then be retrieved on different architectures?

The problem really is that C more or less requires you to really know what you're doing with your data and that's impossible in a networked world because your toy library ends up integrated into something else and then that something else gets connected to the internet and suddenly all those negative test cases that you never thought of are potential security issues. So any simplistic view of string handling will end up with a broken implementation regardless of how well it worked in its initial target environment.

C's solution is simple: take the simplest possible representation and use that, pass responsibility back to the programmer for dealing with all of the edge cases. The problem is that nobody does and even those that try tend to get it subtly wrong several times across a codebase of any magnitude.

It's a nasty little problem and it will result in security issues for decades to come. There are plenty of managed languages, I had some hope (as a seasoned C programmer) that instead of this Cambrian explosion of programming languages that we'd have some kind of convergence so that it becomes easier, not harder to pick a winner and establish some best practices. But it seems as though cooperation is rare, much more common is the mode where a defect in one language or eco system results in a completely new language that solves that one problem in some way (sometimes quite convoluted) at the expense of introducing a whole raft of new problems. Besides the fractioning of mindshare.
Fritz Haber is on this list. That's insane!

The Haber-Bosch process enabled WW1 and WW2. It would have been simply impossible for Germany or any country to build enough explosives for a world war without the ability to synthesize ammonium nitrate. By 1915 about half of the explosives used were ammonium nitrate-based. One of its many uses was enhance and pad out dynamite which could not be produced fast enough.

In particular, both WW1 and WW2 would have ended very quickly for Germany without the Haber-Bosch process because of the naval blockade. "Master Mind: The Rise and Fall of Fritz Haber" by Daniel Charles makes the argument that WW1 could never have lasted more than a year or so without Haber's work.

He also personally had a role in starting WW1, albeit a small one, by helping with and signing a manifesto of intellectuals in Germany that supported the idea of war.

Never mind that Haber invented gas warfare (ironically and sadly, he was Jewish and his work would lead to the gas chambers). He was also an ardent supporter of chemical and gas warfare. He would give speeches about how good gas warfare is because there aren't many wounded soldiers left to care for, just the dead.

Between WW1 and WW2 something like 100 million people died. Haber is not a figure that should appear on this list.

In many ways he was also a tragic figure. From a hardcore nationalist, he was cast aside because he was Jewish. His wife committed suicide because of gas warfare during the battle of Ypres. His daughter committed suicide when her research on an antidote for gas warfare was cancelled. Many in his extended family were killed by the country he was such an ardent supporter of.

I thought it was that Go is to C what Rust is to C++?
This seems like another animal altogether.
Rust's lifetimes have a steep (un)learning curve, but once you know what you're doing, they're fine. Really. IMHO Rust has ergonomic problems around effects or generic numeric code, but not memory management.

AFAIK no silver bullet has been discovered yet that would be an improvement over Rust that doesn't have some other trade-off. Val's mutable value semantics is more local and limited. It "solves" the problem of ugly lifetime annotations by not supporting complex zero-cost lifetimes at all. That doesn't mean Val can't be successful — it can be easier to use by supporting simpler constructs and focusing less on zero-cost abstractions, like Swift, but its ideas aren't stop-the-presses for Rust.

We're already overdue for having a more modern, practical replacement for C. Waiting for a hypothetical better-than-Rust language will only mean staying with C for even longer.

The most relevant statistic to Noah is the race of the students because the most relevant statistic to the implementors of the new math framework was the race of the students; when you see the word 'equity' being brought up in American politics, it always, always, always means addressing an observed disparity between black and white populations. Find any article about the math framework written by its proponents and you will see that race takes up the entire page. You are right that it is stupid; Noah is not saying 'I think this is important myself', he is saying 'the framework does the exact opposite of what its proponents want, down to the last detail'.
There is a world of difference between a selling point and the actual thing, but I would be delighted to be proven that there are movies where the viewership requires hard science to understand the plot.

> that does not make them anti-intellectual

Math is old, and therefore, a vital aspect of human culture. By purposefully producing something that “does better” by excluding math, we are effectively doing our darn best to push math out of our collective thought. If doesn’t matter if we call that “anti-intellectual” or “junk-food-for-the-mind.”

Yeah Japanese sub is too much omitted. It's designed to just understand meaning quickly. People understand emotions from original actors' voice (though I doubt is it precise). Movie on theater can't be paused, so very long annotation like anime fansub isn't possible. Drama translation is done by same culture.

Over the half of people (including many non movie enthusiasts) prefer dub, but sub is very popular in the internet because such people is verbose. I like sub for English (that I can understand a bit and good for learning), dub for the rest.

Of course not, but drones substitute for more than just delivery drivers, and delivery drivers do run over people regularly. Searching for terms like "fedex driver crash" gets you plenty of crashes and a decent number of deaths.[1] The most common casualties seem to be the drivers themselves and dogs. Most deaths are ruled accidental, but around once a year a delivery driver is charged with homicide for killing people with their truck.[2][3] In cases where an unsupervised child is killed, the blame is usually placed on the parents rather than the driver.[4]

If you're worried about delivery drones flying over neighborhoods, you should be even more worried about multi-ton delivery trucks barreling through places where kids play.

I looked at several radio microphones, which were used in different bars in a building with local sound systems. Some of the microphones had been mixed up between rooms and some were entirely lost.

There is some software called Spektrum which I found handy for looking at the full range up to 1GHz to see roughly where the microphones where transmitting then zooming in.

Writing down a list of the microphone frequencies and the frequencies on the labels on the receivers let me figure out what was going on with less running around.

Board members are generally large shareholders in the company and have fiduciary responsibility in their role. They shouldn’t need to be compensated on top of the stake they already have in the success of the company.

It makes Teslas defense that it used the stock options to ensure the incentives of directors were aligned with the goals of investors. [1] kind of ridiculous. That’s literally their job and their fiduciary responsibility as a board member.

I do have to note that a “fiduciary” has a distinct meaning here.

Lots of potential reasons Nvidia doesn't want to be selling a public cloud. For one, they want to sell shovels to the gold rush, not pan for themselves.

Two, they'd be directly competing with their major datacenter customers. They already do this in other markets, but there's a balancing act with how much you can push the big cloud players and how much they'll spend trying to replace you. Nvidia is already struggling to keep them in line (controlling customers is in their DNA) and every new market segment they enter makes antitrust regulators wary.

Having an investment also doesn't tie them to the fate of any particular company. If it goes bankrupt tomorrow, Nvidia doesn't have to sit there and fire the employees/unwind the company.

Lots of others too, like not wanting to get involved with future cloud legislation.

Over the last few years I've seen many examples of LLMs being used for the same kind of problems as in this paper. While it's undeniably impressive for an LLM to do these things, it seems that often the fact that NLP existed well before LLMs is completely forgotten.
