When I started using CL 20 years ago, libraries were stored on cliki and any malicious user could put malware there. Any source you asdf-installed was generally GPG signed and the installer automatically checked signatures against your personal trust-chain.

If I were the semi benevolent dictator of the world, I'd make a law that said: all middle managers up to the CEO must spend 20% of their time doing entry level work in the company. Same with politicians.

If you are insulated from what your company does, or constituents do, you can't effectively wield the power granted to you.

Which leads me to an even more unpopular "authoritarian" opinion: the richest people are the furthest out of touch and thus least qualified to wield so much power. There should be a cap on personal wealth. And generational wealth should be prevented from creating dynasties. There should be no billionaires.

While I mostly agree with your point, I want to point out that on a financial level Wikipedia is really not that well handled. They keep increasing expenses into project that are not core to the experience, or that will never see the light of day (like when they had two different teams working on two different new text editor for the site).

I have a belief that they're caught in a very bureaucratic "we need to use your budget otherwise it would be put into question", but it also means when I give 1 euro to them it goes less and less to their core mission I want to sustain.

From the Racket documentation:

https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/compiler.html

"18.7.1.2 CS Compilation Modes

The CS implementation of Racket supports several compilation modes: machine code, machine-independent, interpreted, and JIT. Machine code is the primary mode, and the machine-independent mode is the same as for BC."

CS is the new implementation of Racket on top of the Chez Scheme runtime. Chez Scheme is known for its excellent machine code compiler.

Mixed Boolean Arithmetic refers to expressions which include boolean, and arithmetic operations (AND, OR, XOR, PLUS, MINUS, MULTIPLY..). Let an expression be something like A + B. My tool applies some transformations to re-write this expression in more complex terms (such as ((A & B) + (A | B))).

The Wikipedia article links to https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rituelle_Gewalt as the German "equivalent" to the Satanic Panic article, and mentions this more recent debate there in more detail.

It also in my eyes cites in a more balanced way how there is a difference between "satanic ritualistic abuse" and "child abuse using pseudo-religious cult structures" (where the primary purpose is the abuse, not some spiritual beliefs), which does exist.
I'd be fine with SO turning into the place where effectively useful AI based answers get posted, where humans have worked together with AI to obtain a valid result, proven to be correct. In that case I wouldn't care if someone posts an AI answer, as long as it is guaranteed to be valid.

That's the place which SO can take in a world with AI assistants.

SO should not use AI to generate content, but to organize it and make it searchable.

It could shift towards the analysis of existing and generation of new content when AI is really ready for it, but I don't see it happen within the next couple of years. And at that point a LLM would probably be smart enough as to not have its user require the use of SO.

Maybe limiting the posting of commented AI results to the top 5% or so, because from the content I've seen new users posting (specially the questions), the quality has degraded strongly over the last 10 years. There's close to zero effort in crafting good questions from many of them.

That doesn’t mean it can’t be assisted by technology. A large part of medicine is ordering tests, interpreting results, analyzing imagery, proposing medicine courses, records, pathology, etc. Anesthesiologists are crucial care but basically do their jobs by monitoring signals and adjusting dosing accordingly. That’s like ideal machine skills and no one has a relationship with their anesthesiologist- they’re asleep.

I agree the direct interface to a lot of medicine needs to be a human as we need human assurance when we are sick and scared. Bed side manner can’t be replace to devalued. But we suffer from critical shortages of medical workers, many of whom can be augmented powerfully with knowledge machines.

My understanding is the real barrier is providers themselves find the user interfaces counter intuitive, aren’t afforded time to train on new systems, and are under so much pressure to produce with such a limited staff they can’t spend the time and energy to work these tools into their workflows. Add on to that the regulatory hurdles to innovation, general risk aversion in the development field, complexities of selling unproven tech into unsophisticated hospital network administration, etc, it’s no wonder it’s a slow slog. It’ll take someone like Kaiser really committing material capital, time, resources, and mandating adoption with a significant training program to see any success.

I've watched Louis Rossmann's video on Jitsi a couple weeks ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nzt0tzsaWDE

He provides a nice piece of anecdata there: for one-on-one meetings, you can just send people a link and usually they just join. Even if they've sent a link to Zoom or Meet or whatever, you still can say “hey, join this instead” and it will work. I haven't tried this yet, but sounds plausible to me.

>Next you can find out what optimizing compilers do to avoid it, where possible or where wanted.

But compilers I am an expert in and what you're implying is impossible - either you have dynamic linkage, which means symbol resolution is deferred until call (and possibly guarded) or you have the equivalent of RTLD_NOW ie early/eager binding. There is no "optimization" possible here because the symbol is not Schrodinger's cat - it is either resolved statically or at runtime - prefetching symbols with some lookahead or cabinet is the same thing as resolving at calltime/runtime because you still need a guard.

"Driving is a privilege" is a slogan created by authoritarians. The word "driving" doesn't appear in the constitution one way or the other. Travel is a right.
In the Netherlands, elementary, primary and secondary schools are all in walking or cycling distance (and we have good cycling infrastructure), that is, elementary schools are in <5 km radius from residential areas, secondary schools <10 kilometers, which is doable in about half an hour of cycling.

For follow-up education - and this is generally from age 16 onwards - you often need to head to a near city or provincial capital, but the government offers a free public transit scheme if you need to travel for that.

Personally, my preschool was literally around the corner (a five minute walk, although I had tiny legs), primary school was a 500 meter walk, secondary school was a kilometer, tertiary education one (associate's degree) was in the next town over (5 kilometer bike ride), tertiary education two (bachelor's degree) was in the province capital (25 kilometer bus ride).

IMO this is how towns and communities should be designed.

From my understanding a smart contract is like a web backend, with completely transparent business logic and data, so anyone can interact with it without any intermediary. If you can deploy your program (smart contract) on the ethereum blockchain or any of the L2 chains, then all the costs of interacting with it and maintaining its data layer are borne by the market participants.

Because of these properties you can create entirely open market infrastructure that anyone can use, which means reduced compliance costs (measured in opportunity and not money) and regulations for the participants.

On the flip side, the issue is that most people are stupid, don't know shit about what they are doing, and the tech itself is vulnerable to all sorts of race conditions because of flaws in Solidity language and the EVM itself which can enable hacks.

I am personally very sympathetic to the crypto efforts and not as sympathetic with the skeptics, because I find the centralisation of the web by some American players to be more dangerous than some individuals losing their life savings playing on web3.

Has stackoverflow ever had a bootstrappy phase of profitability or has it been a VC bonfire ever since inception? If the latter is closer to the truth, I find it a little too easy to talk down the person in charge of keeping investors happy for showing signs of desperation instead of continuing rose-tinted visions from the early days.

But it seems to miss the point that capitalism requires cheap resources and also markets, and the European countries got these resources at huge concessions from the colonies which also provided a market for them. For example the British used Indian tax to buy cotton with tax collected from India, send it to the industrialised production centres (while deliberately destroying the traditional ones in India), and then sell it back to the Indians.

An easier way to understand it is imagine if the US got a 5% discount on Chinese imports -- would that help the US economy? British got close to a 90% discount (by force) on imports from India.
Game dev is a different beast and in most platforms the development/tools are the same or close enough, also when building a game you rely only in low level API (Vulkan, Metal, OpenGL, etc) from the main platform you are targeting. But when you are building an app then you use the hight level API, that means you don't need to deal with font rendering, etc. You could obviously build an app with Unity, but it will not feel native, also IIRC Unity is awful when you need to input text in your game (in iOS at least, not sure how's Android side), it appears a input element above your keyboard while when using the native UI the UX is different.

It's pretty easy to stick it back on the government here.

License plates were originally sold in a time before mass surveillance, when they didn't constitute a de facto tracking device. Now they do constitute a tracking device, but you're still required by law to carry one wherever you go.

And that's the thing we need to fix, because nobody should have this data. Not corporations, not the government, and not the criminals and foreign governments who are going to violate whatever law you propose to solve this in some way other than removing the legal requirement to carry a tracking device.
Controversial opinion but I still deeply believe that any building tools offering a “latest” option in its build configuration file and not as an option to update said file is doing something deeply wrong and just poorly designed. Everything pooled from outside should be using a checksum.

People want and need the ability to pin their environment. If you want to avoid silly surprises when going to production or through your CI system, you need everything to be identical: same versions, same configuration. Tooling should help you do that not introduce new way to shoot you in the foot.

>I'm glad to hear you can hook opcodes like that, then you really can do anything

Just in case someone comes around calls me a liar: the way to do this is to spread the bytecodes out one per line and set a line trace. Then when your bytecode of choice pops up, do what you want (including manipulate the stack) and advance the line number (cpython let's you advance the manipulate the line number).
I just hope they understand the core value proposition of SO is that answers come from people. That is their product.

If you want answers from a computer, you can get them from chat GPT. The best SO is going to do with that is spend a lot of money to repackage it into a feature people probably weren’t looking for on SO to begin with.

I agree there are other indirect applications of ML models than just generating answers. And I hope ML can help to soften some of the “edges” in UX. A lot of that can be done with BERT or even more primitive statistical methods though.
