Why just 1000? Why not 100M? From the war in Ukraine it seems that future wars will be fought by swarms of cheap drones. Most of them will never hit a target. Some of them though will do so. Ships, tanks, soldiers, jets, nothing stands a chance.

It seems to me that the country that develops the best supply chain of cheap drones will be the one that will be able to win any war.
Sorry man, I just don't trust you to correctly identify a nazi.
You have no idea what the reality is.

They are overworked and employed by mega corporations.

They are all miserable.

Talk to one.
Yeah, but how many amps? What really matters is what your total available wattage is. In the US, 240v@200A (48KVA) is not uncommon. My 1979 house and every other one on the block has that, and that was assuming fossile fuel heat.

That can easily support all the things you listed and do it for a 2500 sq ft house, based on the overly conservative and outdated US NEC lead calculations.
One thing they mention several times is the idea of open-source project runners being upfront about their direction and limitations: what they are and aren't willing to do for the broader community.

To this end, I love it when a project (of any size) has a written list of "goals" and "non-goals". Having the latter is important not just because they help set expectations, but because they set boundaries for the project.

This past decade, open source has enjoyed a glut of resources, and many projects saw massive growth (both organizationally and in lines-of-code) and they became these huge things that required hundreds of people to maintain. This raises questions about sustainability, and any fans of the "unix philosophy" haven't been happy campers this past decade either.

In the podcast they also mention the importance of extension interfaces and modules, so things that aren't part of a project's core concern can be externalized and swapped out by users as needed. Software should do one thing. Beware any large system where you can't tear along the dotted line and replace arbitrary parts of it with something else.

Proprietary software and companies have a cancerous (and ultimately self-destructive) tendency to want everything to become an all-consuming monolith that there is no escape from, but this dark impulse lurks in open source too.
Why bother, Phind uses GPT-4 (sometimes) without Microsoft's Edge restriction bullshit.
Look at slide 6, "Die Architecture" (https://www.servethehome.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/Inte...).

The diagram shows 8 gray boxes (in 2 columns of 4). Each gray box is a core.

Above that is a detailed view of what each core looks like. There's a middle section labeled "Crossbar", and above that are 3 boxes labeled STP, MTP, and MTP. Below that are another 3 identical boxes. So each core has 4x MTPs and 2x STP.

What are those? The text of the same slide says MTP is "Multi-Threaded Pipelines" with "16 threads per pipeline" and STP is "Single-Threaded Pipelines" with (self-evidently) 1 thread per pipeline.

And 4 * 16 + 2 * 1 = 66, so 66 threads per core.
I remember also that it was quite flaky. My recollection, probably wrong, was that DOS software that really pushed the system in certain ways wouldn't work right under Win95, especially audio stuff.

I used to work with Impulse Tracker and spend lots of time with the Demoscene and IIR there was a way to kill Win95 and drop back to pure DOS (or boot into DOS instead) and things worked fine there. Windows 95 in that sense still just felt like a very powerful shell over MS-DOS like Windows 3.1 and it wasn't until we got the NT derivatives (XP etc.) that I, and the demoscene, reluctantly gave up on DOS mode software.

It took the scene a very long time to bounce back from that transition, and in some ways it came out of it a very different scene.
Doubt it. The one thing doas is missing (from my POV) is caching the authorization. Sudo will allow you to cache the authorization on every(?) platform, but doas will only allow this on OpenBSD. If you're running "sudo bash" to avoid reentering your password a million times, doas (likely) won't help.

However if you're running "sudo bash", you should probably consider setting the root shell appropriately and just use "sudo -l".
But that was achieved by doing specific research (clinical trials, followup investigations and investigations into chemical mechanisms) which is totally unrelated to psychology.

If sitting and talking helps do it. If not move one to something that does.

Apple had been doing their own mobile processors for a decade. It was matter of time before they vertically integrated the desktop. They definitely did not leave Intel over the process tech.
He’s talking about violent groups who aren’t attempting to have discourse at all, and are attempting to use force to muscle their views on society.

Again you’ve selectively quoted and ignored that the people he says need to be suppressed are those who “begin by denouncing all argument; they may forbid their followers to listen to rational argument, because it is deceptive, and teach them to answer arguments by the use of their fists or pistols.” I.E. "intolerance" here should not be read in a vague sense but specifically means "people who won't tolerate hearing a contrary argument".

Popper's definition of "intolerance" is literally the thing that you’re doing: prima facie denunciation of all argument, and instinctively responding to undesired speech by trying to shut it down. He's literally saying "the only people we should silence by force are the people who refuse to argue and insist on silencing us by force" and somehow you’ve decided he's saying: "we should silence anyone who argues with us by force".

He goes into further detail over several hundred pages in a book nobody who parrots “the paradox of tolerance” has ever read.
Just popping in to say: me too! I feel like there needs to be a community or forum for people like us. I know at least one other person in my circle doing the same. Seems to be rare but more common than I realized...
Actually robocalls are a good example too where we don’t need to remove our privacy for less scam calls. Admittedly, allowing others to listen in to all calls is a solution, but what a trade off it is to allow that.

I learned recently about SnorCall [1] which is IMO a pretty ingenious solution to the problem. The idea is to have a bunch a phone numbers allocated to listening on incoming calls. They record what they listen to and an algorithm will do some speech to text translation then another categorises the call as spam or not. These calls have a huge amount of variation and anyway the incoming number can be spoofed so that number is not interesting. The ingenious part is that often scams will have a call to action and then will give a number to call back. And that number is not spoofed since a real person must answer. And the tests show that a lot of scams actually use the same call back number, making it it easier on law enforcements to act upon those registering that phone number.

Anyway, my point is just that we should try to think outside the box before accepting to decrease our privacy. We usually have a very hard time to get it back.

Narrowly focusing on the potential complications of childbirth is missing the bigger picture. Taking pregnancy out of the human experience significantly changes the human experience. Such a change is not without consequences and shouldn't be done lightly, and certainly not due to "burdens and risks".
This is so cool.

Particularly enjoyed:

In Fomos, an app is really just a function. There is nothing else ! This is a huge claim. An executable for a Unix or Windows OS is extremely complex compared to a freestanding function.

I can't even begin to imagine how cool a kernel would be written this way.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think this is how smalltalk/squeak works?

I hope the author continues with this project. File system, task manager, safe memory stacks, nice resource sharing, ...

You may want to apply a license to the project, otherwise it often wouldn't be considered open source since you're not providing any rights to use/modify/distribute the code.
If you want to argue that internet infrastructure providers should be blocking access to areas of the internet due to bad consequences and "being able to sleep at night", then there many more obvious and larger targets.

The amount of attention KiwiFarms gets is ridiculously outsized for what it is: a fairly small forum with a bunch of mean-spirited people telling mean-spirited "jokes". It's a very odd target for all these free speech issues.
US distribution transformers are around 50 kVA, in the EU they are more like 300-1000 kVA, so they can power 10-20x more homes per transformer.

Instead of those little pole-mounted transformers that are common in the US, we have one of these buildings with a large transformer for each neighborhood https://dms-cf-08.dimu.org/image/032ykUus1ixX?dimension=1200...

The one thing Rust is getting right that I hope Carbon et. al take from it is using the type system to manage memory.

not having to explicitly remember `free` in safe Rust code is amazing. Knowing that if my types are sound that memory will be managed reasonably is great.

I also think that immutable by default, mutable by explicit declaration is pretty great.

I do think there is a lot of room to add better ergonomics on these ideas however
Would be interested to hear the plans for security in more detail.

But in general I think these types of experiments show that operating systems could be improved with greenfield designs.

You're right; I don't believe in it as a categorical virtue. I believe in it as an extremely useful feature of a system of government as a check against the failure mode of the leadership becoming so disconnected from the public that they fall to corruption. In short, "It's not okay for the government to turn the public square into an echo chamber."

Private people, groups, companies though? Not only may they curtail speech more or less arbitrarily in places they own, I believe quite firmly that they may respond to the exercise of freedom of speech by exercising their freedom of association and refraining from further commerce with the speaker because of the information the speaker has revealed. And with very few, narrow, specific cut-outs, American law agrees with that premise.
Yep. Regarding workflows with chains of Map and Reduce operations, the Hadoop ecosystem had a similar improvement with the introduction of Hadoop 2 where YARN as a container resource manager and MapReduce (MapReduce2) were introduced, separating the workflow constraints in original Hadoop/MapReduce. This led to Hadoop projects, such as Tez as an alternate execution engine, replacing MapReduce2, on YARN with the same types of flow optimizations for chained operations and reducing the number of shuffles/writes to disk (i.e. overall much better pipeline performance for typical jobs) -- This was particularly relevant for things like Hive, where Tez could be plugged in as the execution engine when running on a Hadoop 2 cluster.

Yes they are, and when other websites get taken down this gives leverage to authoritarian groups to target them even more.

It directly increases the amount of requires and pressure that is put on them, even though, yes, pressure is already on these groups.

The pressure increases every time a provider caves to demands.
This is quite harsh for a repo explicitly created to experiment with non-Unix OS ideas. It is an experiment, it doesn't have to e useful.

As a victim that has been doxxed and attacked in real life, over a rumor that some idiots spread about me on the other side of the planet (that I am trans?!?), I wholeheartedly disagree and I now know what all the feminist movement is talking about when they write or talk about that they don't feel safe, be it online or offline (due to the technological "upper hand" being on the side of the doxxers).

This incident changed my life, and I changed my pacifistic views because I cannot stand by and do nothing anymore.

Why is it that people have the right to decide what their standpoint is over this, especially in regards to legal actions...but victims don't even have the right to change their names in order to feel safe again?

I thought long whether or not I should write about this, because honestly, I'm in Europe and I don't give a damn about your shit-smearing American radicalization tactics in political campaigns. But I realized that it's over here nowadays, too, and it's a lot bigger than anyone not involved might assume.

Team Jorge, AIMS, Killnet/Xaknet/Legion's psyops, troll factories with fake education foundations as a cover story, etc. if you want to know more about it. Aleph from the occrp if you want to do more research on the legal structures and how their money flows.

The right-wing ("alt rights") are the fools of modern warfare, and they don't even know who it is that is playing them because they are blind of hatred and despair. And that's what's wrong with our society.

Autocracies on the planet realized that the weakness of democracy is that it tries to find a compromise. "Divide and conquer" is literally what they're doing, and we are too busy discussing our moral stand points over this while they infect our societies with hatred to make it impossible to govern.

I've seen that in Rails projects too. They're often way more complicated than they need to be.

My rule of thumb is for a medium or large project that one probably shouldn't mess with the dynamic and meta bits of Ruby unless writing a framework and maybe not even then.
I think Julia has a hard uphill battle against the "Python is the second best language for anything" effect. Julia looks pretty cool to me, but I already know Python. I'll probably learn more about it in my spare time, but I'm also never going to be able to convince my coworkers to try it out, because they also know Python and that's good enough for them. And thus Python's dominance continues.

the butchered coverage was in local newspapers, also owned by gannett.

which begs the question, why doesn’t the headline just, you know, name gannett?

edit: anyone downvoting care to indicate why? it seems rather pertinent to name the owner, given the scale, and the potential impact of using such technology at scale.

It could also be, at least in part, that Covid killed a some people that could have killed themselves.

For example, a lot of people are probably living way beyond their healthspan. In some cases, they might be living lives that involve a lot of suffering from chronic illnesses. So they are both more likely to die and less likely to mind that.

People also outlive their good economic lives quite often. A strong social safety net can reduce the difference between the number of economically good years one might live and their lifespan. But in the US, it is not great. Sometimes life in poverty just involves a lot of suffering, but also puts one at more risk of dying from Covid.

A good portion of people probably live the last decade or two of their lives outside of their healthspan or economical viability. It’s hard to find readily available data though — it has only recently become a popular topic.

Sam Harris did a podcast on lifespan and healthspan (and longevity) a couple of weeks ago. Deutsche Welle spoke about Shit Life Syndrome in their recent documentary about poverty in the UK (though its region blocked on YouTube in the UK). I think there’s a lot more interest recently in this part of our lives where we fall out of economic prosperity and health, and how it both leads to self-harm, and higher mortality.

Lifespan isn’t everything. I think we’re looking at suicide too much through the lens of lifespan reduction. Suicide might not reduce the span of a quality life much when someone has outlived their healthspan or economically viable lives. It could be purely a lifespan reduction of individuals that no longer oppose having their life spans reduced. This should be looked at — not necessarily to accept suicide trends, but also to understand them.

I heard a doctor quoting their patient a while back — “Dying does not worry me, staying alive does.” Or something along these lines, I wish I wrote it down. In short — I don’t think that patient was a very extreme example these days.
Breweries, farms, spas? To fill empty offices, downtowns get creative
This is sadly the standard license for work produced at Facebook AI Research (FAIR) going back at least three or so years. Most researchers are not deeply invested into the details of licensing, so many of them simply assume it is properly open when they see Creative Commons and move on to do more research. This of course ignores the obvious problems with non-commercial licenses, such as the fact that the definition of a commercial entity might very well involve large chunks of the academic world.

Thus, the choice of whatever bloodsu^Wlawyers inside Facebook that pushed this through as the default has had very nasty consequences. However, researchers inside FAIR can apply internally to have an actually open license applied to their work and I have never heard of it being denied. It is not fun (paperwork), but once you sit down and calmly explain the problems with non-commercial licensing and how it likely limits the uptake of their work, many will start pushing for it. My advice is thus just to try to stay positive and talk to the researchers about this rather than try to shame them (not that I have seen this in this thread).

It should also be stated that although this licensing is not "good enough", it is still better than "Open"AI, DeepMind, and many others that gladly just sit on all but a miniscule amount of the code, data, and models they produce.

Wow, that issue thread basically shows everything that's wrong with Google when it comes to dealing with business customers, though I do give them credit that it seems to have slightly improved near the end there: at least a Google PM was giving status updates and engaging with the commenters - before that for years it was just crickets.

Here is my similar (though not as long) example - point-in-time-recovery on postgres: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/78448400. Interestingly, it had the same problem with 0 communication from a Google PM until early 2020, so maybe they hired someone at that time who convinced them you can't treat business customers the same way you do consumers.
A salient point no doubt. There is ample evidence that some are silenced by a range of methods. I’m simply not going to support codifying that sort of thing in law.

I would argue if we have people in positions of power who would make decisions like that then it is our duty to our progeny to relieve those in question.

Congrats on the release! Having built several LLM apps in the past months and embarking on a couple new ones, I’m excited to take a look at Langfuse.

Are there any alternatives you’d also suggest evaluating, and any particular strengths/weaknesses we should consider?

I’m also curious about doing quality metrics, benchmarking, regression testing, and skew measurement. I’ll dig further into Langfuse documentation (just watched the video so far) but I’d love any additional recommendations base on that.
