I don't think the service is so much "tailscale for mullvad users" but the other way around, it's intended for existing tailscale users to get an "exit node" of sorts in their tailscale network without having to set it up themselves.

Tailscale's business model has never been anonymity, last I used them they even required either a Google or O365 account to even use the service.

You might want to look into Headscale[1] instead, it's a server-side implementation of Tailscale that you can self-host. It comes with its own drawbacks but from what I've seen it's worth it if you want more control over the network.

> It's not an unreasonable definition, if you are aware of Kolmogorov complexity and Solomonoff induction

I was already familiar with Kolmogorov Complexity, but not _Solomonoff's theory of inductive inference_ - I skimmed the Wikipedia article just now and I think/hope I get the general gist of it - so thank you for that.

> Intelligence is intimately connected to the ability to predict and model things

I agree with that statement - but I am unsure how this relates to other aspects of intelligence - or even other notions of intelligence entirely. If we're redefining exactly what the word "Intelligence" means aren't we just moving the goalposts?

...so I'm unsure if the word "Intelligence" in your post can/should be read as a layperson would understand it, or if it's a specific, well-defined term in this field? (Like how "complexity" in algorithms does not refer to how convoluted and unmaintainable a program is, which is what a layperson would think of when an SWE person says "this program has high computational complexity" to them).

> and it turns out that data compression is _also_ connected to the ability of predict and model things.

This is where I have difficulty following your argument:

As a preface: my academic understanding of data compression only covers things like algorithms in the LZ family, Entropy coding, and (lossy and lossless) domain-specific compression schemes (like JPEG/DCT, MP3/FLAC, etc). I am aware of very interesting results coming from present-day AI approaches, like using LLMs fed only on compressed data - but these are completely outside my scope of understanding (and LLMs are still very spooky to me).

Does it matter if a scheme is lossless or lossy? In a lossless system, surely a data compression system needs to be deterministic and mechanical? If so, what room is there for "intelligence" in a rigid, statically-defined, system?

Take entropy coding for example - or even simpler probability-based compression schemes like Morse Code (e.g. "E" has a high probability, so it has a very short symbol length). I just can't see the connection from things like entropy-encoding to "modelling": supposing I have a large file (CSV?) of meterological data for a specific region over time - if it's plaintext then I expect I can compress it better using gzip than by using a system that can (somehow!) identify some structure to the weather sensor data (the "model", right?) and then use that as the basis for a better domain-specific compression - but doing this means having to add additional metadata to the source data to describe the structure that the system identified, and then hope that this approach is better than a comparatively "dumb" approach like DEFLATE - and even then, assuming that employing that "model" really does result in smaller compressed output, how is that an example of the system having a general "intelligence"?
I'm not in any way excusing the bug, but what about routing? Even if the firewall is broken, if you have a wg0 interface and your only route is through that interface, wouldn't that also achieve the same goal?

There's nothing wrong with selling sets of plugins by the way. I don't really get why it must be different IDEs though.

Yeah, but it's just weird to me. Old architectures had logical limits. Most were because of things like memory addressing. Some were because you were writing C without any fancy modern helper libraries, and so if you wanted a hashtable you had to roll it yourself. A fixed size array for some things was just pragmatic. Graphics were 256 color because that was what the hardware supported.

This thing though is in C++ which does all the dynamic allocation you want. Nobody uses 256 color video modes anymore. The limits are all completely artificial.

They're not even particularly good limits because there was console hardware that had say, 4096 colors, or per-sprite palettes which doesn't quite match PC hardware in capabilities.
> Compressing that information into "it's raining every day this week" requires creating an abstraction around it. Finding a pattern. Producing more order from something more chaotic.

Is there any way to determine if that process of abstraction-finding and pattern-finding will always/actually/sometimes/never result in a more compressed output than simpler approaches though?
First, if you want to know more about the company behind the IMSAI, there's a long section in chapter 3 of Fire In The Valley [1] about IMSAIs founding through to its demise. It's an interesting lesson about what happens when salespeople run tech companies:

> Meanwhile, IMSAI had grown quickly and showed no signs of decelerating. The company already occupied two buildings on Wicks Boulevard in San Leandro; administration, sales, marketing, and engineering were located in one building, and production and support in the other. Millard had assembled a driven organization, a fact nowhere more apparent than among the sales team in Building One. Telephone salespeople like Bill Lohse came in promptly at 8 A.M. and, after a brief meeting, got on the phones and stayed there, logging every call until lunchtime. Lohse would take an hour off, during which time he compared notes with other sales representatives on how many thousands of dollars of equipment they had sold that morning. Then he’d jump back on the phones again, making calls until the end-of-the-day sales meeting. ...

> Building Two was where reality came in. Selling a million dollars’ worth of computers and building a million dollars’ worth of computers are two different things, and the production people had trouble keeping up with the orders. ...

Second, I highly recommend this playlist on YouTube from a guy who restored his IMSAI to working condition. I learned a ton about the basics of an Altair class machine - how it worked, what common boards were used, and how it connected to things like printers and displays, etc. [2]

If you'll grant that we're also able to replicate the study many times, we're left with errors that are not caught by Wikipedians or independent teams of experts. At that point I think we're looking at errors that have been written into history - the kind of error that originates in primary sources and can't be identified through fact checking. We could maybe estimate the size of that set by identifying widely-accepted misconceptions that were later overturned, but then we're back to my first suggestion and your objection to it.

But more importantly we probably won't catch that sort of error by introducing fabrications, either. Fabrications might replicate a class of error we're interested in, but if we just throw it onto Wikipedia, it's not going to be a longstanding misunderstanding which is immune to fact checking (at least without giving it a lot of time to develop into a citogenesis event, but that's exactly the kind of externality we're trying to avoid).

(Of course, "how many times do we need to replicate it?" remains unanswered. I think maybe after we have several replications and have data on false negatives by our teams of experts, we could come up with an estimate.)
You got a lot of flak for what is clearly a take from someone that isn't versed in compression techniques. But as one might to a student; you're on the right track! This idea is similar in form to "arithmetic coding" which is what people are using to chip away at this. Namely, finding smaller encodings which can be used to predict common parts (maybe a recognisable word, more likely a sequence of bits or characters) of the full encoding, then cycling through storing "hints" for each part it would get wrong until it can predict the exact desired output

I would say most of the 100s of patients I have seen w cfs or fibro haven’t given pacing a good try - either they do t have the common sense you mention, or they do, but are unable to make the changes required to actually pace. Ie making boundaries with family, leaving an abusive partner, taking time off a cherished job etc. And then, it is very rare for a person to, once they have removed these more external sources of stress, start to work on pacing their internally generated stress (ie “free floating anxiety” etc) through dedicated mindfulness and appropriate psychotherapy.
I am sure plenty of expert analysts have been working on scenarios of what would happen if Putin was toppled or/and if Russia was totally humiliated in Ukraine. Maybe those in charge do not like the most likely ones.

> Stuff like this makes me happy I left the JetBrains ecosystem years ago.

Trouble is it depends what you program.

For example if you're a Go coder, then JetBrains GoLand has no competition.

Sure you might try VSCode with various extensions, but its not the same. GoLand enables you to be much more productive because of its first-class integration with Go.

The only reason some people use VSCode instead of GoLand for Go coding is because its free. There's no real reason to use it otherwise.

There are a lot of contextual questions raised by that though - are the people who interact with the project the community? How many people are being interacted with? What are the goals of said community?

2-3 people can seem like a huge crowd and a complete consensus in the right context. It is still a handful of people. And the fact is that Discord (and Slack) is long-term-toxic to building up knowledge in a community. There isn't an available body of records to figure out what the history of the community is and what topics have been considered in the past. It is completely unsuitable for recording Q&A. It isn't terrible as a support forum, but even then anything that can be crawled by a search engine has some serious advantages if the community cares about people who are in the silent majority.

Couldn't agree more, negative feedback loops tend to reproduce the same outcomes. Maybe I'm pessimistic but seems like most folks aren't reading much at all beyond the headlines and tend to just regurgitate the negative prose on topics they haven't bothered to do basic research on, or repeat whats trending. Things change, economies shift, were all a part of the whole no matter how disconnected we think we are. The social reinforcement of gloom and doom becomes the market of consumption. It's time we put our heads together to produce solutions, focus on what we can do now, be proud of what we did today. Yesterday already happened, tomorrow will be the result of what we do with the time we have.

MSIX can be made to work in that context. We've done it, although it required writing our own installer EXE stub that invokes the package management API rather than using Microsoft's own "App Installer" app, and doing lots of remote diagnosis to solve the mysterious bugs you were hitting. I would indeed not recommend anyone try to use it with Microsoft's own tooling.

Still, when you finally make it work you get a lot of benefits. MSI is clearly dead end tech which is why so many MSIs are just installer EXEs wrapped in the file format. It doesn't have any clear path to modern essentials like online updates, keeping the OS clean, sandboxing and so on. If you were on the Windows team, what would you say the future was?

For enterprise environments it's actually somewhat the opposite: MSIX packages can be installed without admin privileges due to their declarative nature, and it's very easy for admins to provision MSIXs to Active Directory groups because they don't have to do any repackaging work. Yes, some admins have hacked Windows to stop it working because when MS launched the Store they didn't provide any way for admins to opt out, but these days they have the knobs they need. Also, because they're just zips you can always just unzip them into your home directory to get at the app inside. It won't auto update that way, but as long as EXEs can run from the home dir it can work.

Products like Office and Visual Studio have entire teams devoted to nothing but their installers, which is clearly going too far in the opposite direction. Most products won't want to do that.
Funny, I had the opposite experience. Typescript has perfect language server support, the vs code api docs are very good and you can always just look at the source. Plus debugging vs code extensions is easy.

Porting the same extension to sublime text was a nightmare. Python has poor language support in all ides, the docs were lacking, there was no good debugger and I couldn't just check the code.

Moreover, I reckon it'd be impossible to generalize as every instance would be different. The only thing one could say in the absence of data would be that EM effects would build up over time to a tipping point and then quickky release like a sawtooth waveform but if you want more accurate info then ask the experts.

The point I was making was that because of stresses on rock forces build up and produce EM waves before the tipping point occurs. It's detecting the build-up before its release that has the potential to save people.

I've lost track of those original papers that influenced me. If anyone comes across them I'd like the references.

Not OP, but I think the beef is that the act of applying a filter requires a reload of anything at all ("hey, server, please send me the list of only 16GB pairs this time"), when it's perfectly possible to just send the full list of items to the client initially and then have filtering apply instantly, client-side, on that already loaded list.

At least that's the beef I have, and was reminded of when reading the parent comment.
