The universal server may or may not return anything. It just executes whatever is passed to it. In Erlang there are two ways of "calling" (in quotes for a reason). There's conventional function calling which is the regular synchronous style that we all know and love:

f(10).

This will produce a result and return it to its caller. The other isn't really a call, it's "sending":

Pid ! 10.

Some process id has been sent the value 10. It may be on this same node, it may be on another node, I don't have to care (sometimes I do though). This is asynchronous. Once a send is done the sending process will continue on (perhaps even terminating). At the other end of the send is a receive (hopefully, otherwise somebody's queue is getting filled up...):

receive
N -> ... % do something with this value
end.

In the case of `universal_server` we don't know what it will become, it's just going to execute whatever 0-ary function is passed. That function may or may not include a "return" (sending a value back to the origin). It could also just terminate the universal server. Or it could temporarily convert the universal server into something else and then become a universal server again.
Are the only people qualified to speak on the mental experience of being human neuroscientists and psychiatrists? Seems like you’re completely missing GP’s point.
Yes, I'm the author. I didn't know anything about this before seeing those 2.5 secs in the video, going, hold on, what is this? So I went on to find out, and thought it may be interesting to share. (Because, well, as I have now found out, what would be the point in sitting on this piece of information? :-) )
I’m sure this is well intentioned, but the precedent of schools hiding things from parents is ripe for abuse: https://www.politico.com/news/2020/10/15/sexual-violence-rep....

This is also an illustration of how individualism increases reliance on the State. Children are necessarily dependent—their brains are incomplete. If you seek to free them from their parents, you need to substitute the guardianship of the State. Someone has to help kids develop their gender identity—and it’s not just the fraction of a percent of kids with gender dysphoria, but all kids struggling with their body image-the court here simply determined that overworked teachers and administrators are better positioned to do that than parents.
Just for fun, I will defend it.

Let’s break it down into common sense thoughts.

* Dopamine hits feel good.

* Anything that makes you feel good produces diminishing returns when repeated too frequently.

* For many people this can trigger addiction.

* If you get internally hostile to suggestions that you should try quitting such behavior: you’re an addict. Standard example: no one will get angry if it’s suggested that they stop eating cauliflower, but many will get angry if it’s suggested they stop consuming sugary products or drinking alcohol.

Therefore, an experiment where you quit the controversial item is harmless and will tell you more about yourself and just about anything else.
Protected from what? This a legal action being brought by X, not by the ADL. X is not the defendant so it's not really about X's protection.

The ADL hasn't taken any legal action against X; it's just made some statements and maybe, if you believe Musk, lobbied advertisers. Which really doesn't have anything to do with section 230.
> but capitalism is entirely a system engineered for distributing power for the benefit of a particular class.

A previous commenter postulated a hypothetical world where capital only has value when labour is utilizing it. It in no way violated capitalism, but clearly labour holds the power in that world. After all, labour could just not use the capital and then take it from the dumpster after it gets thrown away for being worthless.

It is possible other worlds could see capital that is not dependent on labour and use that to take power, perhaps, but that's beyond the topic of capitalism. Nothing in capitalism says that there must be capital that is utilizable without labour.

> Capitalism implements (not describes) one particular way of organizing

Huh? Words can't implement anything. Only people can implement something.
Thank you! Yes, and I agree, here be dragons. But I'm drawn to the topic like a moth to a flame....

> A blockchain doesn't have to allow anyone to participate.

A blockchain with authoritative access has marginal use: it can reduce trust (but not realistically defend against economic attacks) - it certainly pales in comparison to the societal application of a network which is robust while allowing arbitrary participation in consensus.

People, skeptics included, get stuck on the word blockchain and build arguments stating that any data structure which is a cryptographic chain of hashes is the true subject of interest. Blockchain doesn't offer the compelling parts of "crypto" anymore than a care without an engine offers the ability to drive.

Economic (or game theoretic, if you like) defense against converging power is the primary draw. It is why technologically minded people so often don't truly grok it - because the cryptography is (important) implementation details. It is the incentives which emerges from those schemes that is primarily important.
Even if he was a trained psychologist I'd be skeptical. The guy who wrote Why We Sleep is, if I recall correctly both a neuroscientist and psychologist and turns out the work was riddled with factual errors to the point of being virtually useless.

There's a lot of sounds sort of correct but has no scientific basis type stuff being published in the public intellectual / life advice genre, probably not surprisingly. Especially all the 'dopamine detox' lingo should set alarm bells off as it is essentially modern day bloodletting.
9 out 10 times new legislation will be in favor of rich and corps who put money in lobbying and supporting politicians. They may wrap it into some cool language like Protection of Citizen Rights Act 2024.

> you're not making the case for it being impossible and you're pointing to something that literally exists now. If it's hard, cool, I'm not afraid of difficult challenges, I honestly believe most people aren't afraid either.

I'm not making the case for it being impossible not because I believe it to be possible but because I'm coming from a place of humility that I may be wrong about it being impossible, because I honestly don't know all the relevant factors. But certainly I'm not familiar with any cases where it worked.

> I certainly don't think it's less important that someone is a Janitor as opposed to a Lawyer or something

Rationally, I agree with you here...

> The reason people "Don't" want to be Janitors right now is less to do with 'the job' and whatever stereotypes you have in your head but because it's one of the jobs that doesn't pay enough for someone to live comfortably.

... but here I disagree. Cleaning up after strangers is demeaning work, and not because of suicidal moirés but on an evolutionary level. You spread your shit to mark your territory, because the smell of shit told people to go away. Being forced to hold your nose and clean it up is not what marks a leader, it is what marks someone who has no other choice.
I have a few I love!

NextDraft https://nextdraft.com is written by Dave Pell. Dave is from the 90’s-era “digerati,” folks like Kevin Kelly and Louis Rossetto. He signs each newsletter “Editor, Internet.” He surfaces the news of the day and provides hilarious and sometimes poignant commentary on it. He has a decidedly “San Francisco left-wing” viewpoint. If that’s your jam, his newsletter is an absolute treat. I truly love that man.

I also love Pirate Wares https://piratewares.com, Mike Solana’s newsletter. Mike has neither really a left or right viewpoint. He’s more of the type to sit above left or right and point out there are multiple other dimensions and forces at work. Covers tech, news, finance, science.

I also really like Bloomberg’s Open and Close newsletters, and I LOVE Matt Levine’s Bloomberg Money Stuff newsletter, though it isn’t so much focused on general news as it is on finance. But again, what an absolute treat it is to read him. Love him.
That is an incredibly cool discovery. Another weird body hack in Northern Australia Hymenoptera is the honey pot ant. Their replete caste are passive food storage containers.
The Jan 6 rioters injured 114 law enforcement officers (leading to one death) in a few hours. The leaders expressed a desire to overturn the government unlawfully and their followers proved they were willing to use violence to do so.

The fatal Seattle shootings happened more than three weeks after the CHAZ/CHOP zone was established, and when most of the protesters had gone home. The organizers were using their illegal occupation to push for political reforms through the local government.

Those are substantively different situations.

P.S. It’s clear that the CHAZ/CHOP organizers lacked the skill to maintain security for such a large area. Whether they bear criminal liability is up for the courts to decide. (Just like it is for the Jan 6 rioters.)
Depression can play direct role in developing type 2 diabetes, says study
Okay it’s not Ebert’s but I have to say that “O.K., let's slowly lower in the grant money” from that first link is nearly Gary Larson-tier humor, IMO.
On quick inspection, his experiments seem to be fairly well controlled. I will venture a guess that they are a little better than average, and we know that only half of studies can be replicated.

Assuming that his data is fairly clean, I don’t see why it’s out of the realm of possibility that he could be contributing substantially to neuroscience no matter what is academic background. The results should speak for themselves.

IMHO academia is incredibly broken anyway, and the tenure system has had the opposite effect of it as was intended. Professors are now so desperate to keep tebure they do nothing to challenge the orthodoxy and everything to crush those who do.
Also you don't write code that your processor executes and, at best, you use a layer of complexity known as assembly language. That's a shame!
Ouch. No, go read the thread again.

You can turn methane into water in theory. And you can technically do it in a lab (even though the easiest way by far to do it uses a lot of water). You can't do it on your backpack.
I like how it requires sending all the data up to the server, where I guess it gets discarded, returns a static HTML page that converts that same data on the client into a web page.

Has the advantages of being centralized (site can be shut down, nuking all URLS) and decentralized (requires tech skills to set up, site cannot be updated without changing URL, etc.). Adding tinyurl to this as suggested in another comment takes it to the next level!
> There is a case to be made that Trump being president for 4 years caused predictable actual harm to some people.

How many presidents are there for whom this wouldn't be true? Are there any? You could probably expand this to most positions of any significant power.
My biggest issue as an IoT developer is many systems want to exist in a internet DISCONNECTED state. That is, a local ad-hoc mesh of devices. They are secure because they are air-barriered to the internet, and often are set up miles away from a point where they could connect to the internet.

The problem is, due to security rules imposed by browsers and apple, these devices must be constantly given new certificates to keep them operating. Without these certificates, no ssl, no secure web-sockets. This effectively makes it so that every-single-device has to be internet facing. These security measures were intended to help, yet everyone always asks "Why did my light switch even have a connection to the internet?" and this is why.

What I hear from your proposal is even more of the same, more internet traffic from every little trinket, more apps needed to activate simple devices. And making it even harder to have a devices simply communicate over a protected lan.

I did, quite instinctively, yes. My father apprenticed me in the natural sciences, so by 16, I definitely knew a quack when I saw him, and I could tell what is junk science just fine. Unfortunately, people who support the establishment have vested interest in propping up both quacks and pseudoscientific woo.
That last point is so true. I know here in the state of Washington athletic directors, make by far the most money.

Feel free to contact me via my phone number in my profile if you would like to bounce ideas off of me. (Nothing to sell, but when I worked for other people it was also a bad economy and I had a bunch of working strategies to find jobs quickly.)
> - Not enough log retention in the corp environment to track a 2 year old infiltration.

It didn't say that Microsoft couldn't identify that infiltration had occurred just that they didn't retain the logs to prove to exfiltration. That makes a lot of sense, maintaining access logs is one thing but to retain the detailed logging of every file action by every user on a 100k+ user corporate network long-term would be a massive amount of storage, of fairly limited value.

Even in this case, it might be nice to have but it wouldn't change any of the major findings you care about if you are Microsoft: that a bug allowed a key to be written to a dump file, that the scanning tools didn't detect the key in the dump file, and that the authentication process didn't properly check the keys.
Once I figured out being online for more than 15 mins at a time was preferable I got a dedicated phone line around the same time in late 98.

Lightroom regularly breaks plugin compatibility, increases resource consumption and processing time, or simply stops working.

From what I've read (which admittedly limited to media available to an American), there is an urban/rural differentiating system whereby rural folks can be identified by their identification card (I think by number) and need to apply for low-paid migrant labor work in urban centers.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mingong

The distinction between this and implicit systems of caste found in Western countries (like US racial inequality), in my mind, is that it is a caste system that's embedded into and enforced by their legal system.

It's disappointing to me, too. If there's one noteworthy plus-side to any communist system, it should be an unyielding commitment by the communist party NOT to allow a legal system that enforces a class system. It's like the one thing they should be good at, even if nothing else.
What's funny about it though is as an English speaker who knows no Japanese but often enjoys reading subtitles, I'd much rather see the weird literal translation so I know "oh, this is some cool idiom in Japanese" rather than translating it to boring English idioms. Like I get much more out of the meaning when I see the raw original idiom literally translated, and I prefer that.

I think we take for granted that idioms from other cultures/languages are incomprehensible... often they make a lot of sense when literally translated even if they aren't a "thing" in the language to which they are being translated.

> Huh? Words can’t implement anything.

If we were talking about the word “capitalism”, it would be in quotes; that’s how you make use/mention distinctions in English. “Capitalism” is a word, the thing it describes is capitalism, which is a system, which implements a design that people have made.

The species co-evolved? I am assuming the early "I am a termite" mimicry wasn't very good, but neither was the termites 'not a termite' detection logic and so each incremental step of the way over 100,000+ years of evolution, they co-evolved to believe this mimicry, at a high level.

Neither party can entirely "win" in this model. At best, they get some marginal benefit in a predator/prey/host model which alters the cyclical swings of which species is higher or lower in the equipoised outcome. Over the next 1000 years, it swings the other way.

Oh and let's be clear - Chase is an absolute trash bank. I have no idea why anyone would waste time with their retail deposit or savings products.

However Chase does offer some of the best travel Credit Card products in the US, the only one directly competing with them is Amex and they are not a great worldwide traveling card, Capitol One is close but not quite. Chases' customer service is a mixed bag, but it's on par or better than most of the competition (say, Citi, ugh).

Thank you. I wasn’t able to come up with the right mix but other posts along with yours are telling me I should re-double my research.
I agree with your points. Cal Newport's content comes up a lot when people are searching for ways to improve productivity by reducing distractions from the web, and people looking for it are more interested in an easy to grasp solution that sounds scientific enough than more complex answers from scientific studies. By definition the target audience that cannot do deep work also cannot comprehend more elaborate studies anyway.

I followed the advice (sometimes attributed to him) to eliminate social media and it works (for obvious reasons), but it is as good as an advice of not going outside on the rain in order to not get wet. We might as well use some dedicated tool to minimize getting wet while still being able to go outside in the rain.

The value in the perspective comes from realising what you're actually aiming for. Generally speaking, I don't think there's much evidence in that "healthy" foods are strictly better for you than processed food, beyond the idea you don't get as many calories from them so it's harder to overeat.

It's nontrivial to simply "eat less", I agree, but knowing that's the core goal (or more accurately, reducing caloric intake) has value when you're trying to decide how to resolve an obesity problem.
I've only seen it work poorly.

In my experience, the new top guy brings in his old lackeys because they complemented him, and made him look good, in the context of the top guy's previous company.

Hence they often turn out to be one dimensional, rather than rounded contributors - e.g great at bringing in projects on time even though everyone hates working with them, or great at technical due diligence/sniffing out skunk projects even though the new company's best work is in skunk projects.
