I think it is because the novel has entered the subconscious of spy fiction and so many things have been inspired by it intentionally or not that it doesn't seem as fresh as it once did. But at the time, the notion that intelligence work is a dirty game and that everybody follows basically the same rulebook was pretty novel and even shocking. These days this is just generally accepted as true -- even the recent James Bond movies have this cynical view.

I like this sort of idea for typifying dynamic languages (like JS)

What if instead of TS, you had plain JS as-is (no compiler needed!) then just add comment like:

/* x is an integer, x > 0 ... */
function add(x, y) { ...

Sorry the example ain't great but the point is that you can be precise with refinement types. I think refinement types (less all the mathy explanations) are more intuitive. They would be like assertions or C# code contracts. The content of those types would look "business-ey" rather than "category theory-ish".

Nooks (https://nooks.ai) | Software Engineers (full-stack & backend/ML infra) | Full-time | SF or Remote
Hi, I’m one of the founders of Nooks — we’re trying to re-invent how sales teams work with real-time collaboration and AI.

Nooks is: - A virtual office: you can work from anywhere in the world, but still work with your team and get feedback and coaching like you’re sitting side-by-side. - and an AI co-pilot. We learn how your team works, identify “winning” strategies behaviors, then share them with the whole team during and after calls!

We’re working on fun engineering challenges including complex distributed systems, low-latency algorithms & infrastructure, and modeling sales calls with large language models. You'll also have the chance to make a huge impact on our customers (sales reps who spend 80% of their work day on Nooks.)

Right now we’re a small team (22 ppl) growing super quickly - doubling revenue every quarter, and recently hit $1.9MM ARR!

Looking for experienced engineers who love tackling difficult product questions and working closely with customers. Excitement about language models, few-shot learning and other recent AI advances is also a plus :)

I’d love to chat: reach me at nikhil [at] nooks.in or apply at the link below: https://nooks.breezy.hr/p/bbc06c1a1bb4-software-engineer
> Twice as many people attend Disney World each day as go to burning man. Deaths are so rare (even from heart attack) there is a wikipedia of incidents.

Burning Man or Disney World?

There's self-selection at both (and at sporting events), but also other factors: folks leave WDW or a football game after X hours and go home, or can easily leave WDW or a football game if they're feeling unwell. Not as true at Burning Man.

So, how many folks die on the same day they go to a football game? What is the rate of death of attendees of football games? Obviously, there will be factors other than "attended football game", but if we're going to compare deaths _at_ sporting events or _at_ a theme part, we should try our best to make it apples to apples.

Or rather, how many people die 1/ 7/ 30 days after attending Burning Man, compared to their age cohort?
Yeah, that's not a thing. It's been suggested that the USPS revive postal banking, which would merely make it another player in the banking system, not the sole banking entity in the U.S.
You are very wrong on your analysis of the travis afb land purchase. You would be correct if someone could easily get into their entire land position they need for their project all at once but it never happens that way, you are always legging into positions and run the risk of massive extortion if what you are doing is known because holdouts can capture excess payouts due to their monopoly power. Secrecy is required to get a deal done otherwise no deals get done due to landowner greed.
Amen. I've never understood why people fear speculated Chinese and Russian spying, while they never seem to recall the US spying that is well documented and confirmed.

But when designing a standard, if you ignore the needs of implementers you can accidentally write yourself into a place where it becomes impossible for new implementers to completely implement the spec, so we're locked to our existing implementations.

The creator of Fruit Ninja released a fantastic video about the origins of the game:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=St5v2uI-Nis

I highly recommend it, it's a fantastic post mortem (they shipped the original game, from prototype to 1.0, in just 6 weeks!)

Similarly, he was just an employee at the game studio, and never made significant money from it (which he mentions led to confusion when seeking funding as he started his own company later - people kept asking "why don't you just use your Fruit Ninja money?").

Big fan of Keita, played all of his games (including the weird ps3/iphone nobynobyboy/girl), had the pleasure of meeting him in SF when he was working on Wattam, writing this from a laptop with a katamari sticker on it. One of my favorite designers.
> I’ve moved as far away from drug users as I could and it was the best decision to increase my productivity, lower my stress, and increase my physical safety I’ve ever made.

i'm honestly unaware of places without drug users, so honest question : did you move away from drug users, or did you move away from users of a specific drug?

The only way I can fathom that someone may be truly away from drug users is that they're also totally away from populations of any kind.

Maybe creators of worlds to share must also craft novel protocols for their custom apps. They invest in alternate forms of HTTP on purpose: the friction as part of the investment.

We must acknowledge the overhead in debugging things, in the belief that knowledge of these layers above and below results in a richer product somehow, some meta-narrative of supporting not only a work or works, but a life.

I'm a very happy NFS customer. I give them money, and they host stuff for me. If I run out of money in my NFS account, they stop hosting stuff for me. Simple, fair, low-risk. (There are alarms, "suspended mode", etc., so they don't just pull the plug, either.)

My favorite feature of this way of doing things is that I never need to wonder how much they're going to bill me, because I've already pre-paid the maximum I'm willing to lose in one go should I fat-finger something. Compare this to the unlimited liability involved in using AWS et al., which should be a terrifying prospect for most individuals.

Enjoyed the story and it reminded me of another bridge over I-225 that I wondered about and drive under occasionally in the Denver area. The bridge is much wider than a typical pedestrian bridge and there is really "nothing" on either side. I don't know if it's true, but the story I eventually found is that when I-225 was being built in the 70's it cut a farmer's field in half so he got a personal bridge that he could drive across in his tractor! Of course now, the farmer and his fields are long gone. https://www.google.com/maps/@39.6415158,-104.8783965,87a,35y...

My primary take on it is that the local government was overwhelmed and out of their depth and their naivete was exploited with promises of jobs and funding. At one point they declared people's homes uninhabitable to force them out. It's a pretty sad story on the local level.

The promise of autonomous vehicles DOES tend to prevent "fixing transit". It reinforces the narrative of individual car ownership. In American society, you are seen as a bit lesser if you don't have an individual vehicle.

Autonomous vehicles promise to expand individual car ownership to some groups that would normally be forced to rely on public transit (people disabled in a way that prevents them from driving, or repeat drunk drivers, for example). For the able-bodied, they promise the relaxed luxury of "someone/thing else is driving and I can work/read/relax" that public transport offers, without having to actually build public transport.

This means the people with the strongest vested interests in public transit are already relatively outcast and underclass, and it will only get worse.

Make the rich and powerful have to take a bus, and suddenly it will become a significant political concern that the schedule is a loose suggestion at best, and that nobody has cleaned the bus since George VI was on the throne.

It would be interesting to expand on your last point-- an AV fleet that compliments public transit as a last-mile offering-- but it doesn't seem to be the model we're seeing sold right now. It's the same old vehicle designs clearly intended for single-family use, long trip times, and low duty cycle. I would imagine an AV system built as a "compliment" might involve small, slow vehicles, almost glorified bumper cars, with like 25km battery range, since the target application is to drive from the train station to a home/office, then return to the station for a battery swap and service. While each trip is a light task, a single vehicle might go on dozens of trips per day and as a result get a completely different wear pattern than your typical Hyundai.

"But Takahashi ended his involvement with the franchise and its publisher, Bandai Namco, long ago.

He was a full-time employee of Namco at the according to another part of the article. Do game producers get royalties for IP they come up with in a large company? I'm guessing no.

I'll leave "true" up to someone else, but in my opinion "not true" is all the stuff that's just a gimmick. Someone might think of the nail puller on the side of a Craftsman hammer to be "an innovation", but to me it's just a gimmick. It's useless compared to anything actually designed to pull nails, and it was added for the sole purpose of making people go "I don't have one of those, I need to buy one".

I think a good 50% of "innovations" under capitalism fall into this category. They're only thought of as "innovations" because the parasites who make a profit from it are the ones in charge of headlines.

LLMs are a drunk guy at a party. A context machine, or a really good spell checker, maybe like a really outgoing, kinda drunk guy at a party. He can just walk right up to any group, hear someone say the words, "...thats why we never go on vacations anymore..." and he will just jump right in, "Me and the wife just got back from a great VACATION, we love going to Cabo, its out favorit vacation spot, last year we went..."

The guy has NO IDEA what the group was actually talking about but it doesn't matter anyway. You can give him more context but all he can do id further tailor his story to try and fit in better with the group discussion.

I think people get confused about what LLMs are doing because you CAN ask the drunk guy questions and he CAN kind of answer, or ask him to do a party trick and he can kinda do it, but all he is doing is continuing the context you give him, he IMMEDIATELY forgets anything you told him so he can't do the same exact thing twice.

"I would say our identity becomes what we are appreciated for."

I think there's a lot of truth in this, and it's not something I've ever seen stated before.

I guess it's a bit of a feedback loop. We want to feel good about our self, so our self becomes increasingly about the things people appreciate and respond positively to. There are a lot of aspects to my life, but the ones that are core to me aren't necessarily the ones I do most or get paid best for, but are things for which others are most complimentary.
To what end? You'd have to host them externally to your mastodon account, which means you'd have to link out to any old post you wanted to share. People scrolling through your mastodon profile wouldn't see anything you didn't explicitly repost. Most won't click through to your archive website, almost no one would ever see your archive.

If you just want to archive them for your own purposes, you already have the archive download.

This can be solved with automated tools that review your code for copyright violations.

But to be honest, this is a non-issue. Copilot (and co) rarely outputs copyrighted code verbatim and when it does, it's usually too small or too trivial to fall under copyright protection. I made a prediction last year that no one will get sued from using Copilot generated code and I believe it has held so far[0].
