My dad pretty much went from "doing well" to "dropping it and getting different job while selling land to development" within the span of my childhood and teenage years.

Small farming was viable few decades ago, now you'd have to make some speciality fancy food there to be profitable, not anything mass market.

Small vinery? Sure you might have some chance. Potatoes and wheat ? Good fucking luck.

> It's one of the reasons I LOL hard whenever I hear tech people saying they will "retire and become farmers", these people have no idea what it is like to work on a farm for real.

Clarkson's farm is essentially a documentary about that lmao. Rich man invests a lot and with ton of help earns less than a thousand a year from quite a lot of land.
Helps if people actually exist to buy them though…
From the little testing I did, XMage supports commander and there were no unsupported cards in the 5 or 6 decks Ive tried. You do have to use the beta release though, the stable release is like 3 years old.

It's still a little clunky, but handling priority is generally a nightmare in a 4 person game. I think that's part of why Arena doesn't even bother trying. Waiting for 4 people to pass priority is annoyingly long when it happens like 12 times per turn. Games would take all day to complete.
Well over 50% of workers report being satisfied with their job. Automation eliminating jobs people are satisfied or happy with is almost certainly a loss the workers, even if it is an improvement overall.

I say this as someone who knows he has been directly responsible for eliminating dozens of jobs through automation. Not all the people affected had lives were improved by the job elimination, even if I truly believe our solution made far more peoples lives better and was a win overall.

I prefer to eat meat. Staying away from common grains more and more over the past five years has really improved my overall health. My inflammation is reduced and all of my blood tests that I run twice+ a year are great. Lab grown meat seems like it might work some day, but the real thing seems to beat out any kind of vegan/vegetarian option for my own personal health outcomes.

> AGI will claim the novelty of ‘innovation’ from humans too

One, sure, we can expand the hypothetical envelope to infinity. That wasn't the question.

Two, I'm not sure. Human preferences need not be rational. Given the choice, many would choose the flawed work of a human versus the synthesized product of an AGI.

Three, if we have an AGI that can do everything humans can do we've rendered the question irrelevant. There is no "economy" anymore because everything can be centrally measured, produced and dispatched. By the AGI. (Or it can destroy us.) Either way, we return to production and consumption of non-AI work products being purely voluntary.

> writing closing tags is cumbersome

Personally I've come to appreciate that many closing tags are unnecessary in HTML. Makes many constructs much more concise. Especially with tables:

<table>
<caption>Some letters and numbers
<thead> <tr> <th>Letters <th>Numbers
<tbody>
<tr> <td>A <td>1
<tr> <td>B <td>2
<tr> <td>C <td>3
</table>
This sounds somewhat similar to the concept of channels in Teams, wherein channels are subjects, and you create new topics and the discussion is canalized on those channels. You can also have email recaps of the conversations in your channels.

On paper it's a good idea, in practice I found it cumbersome. It requires for people to think a little about how to structure their conversation, and thinking is hard, too hard when you can just send a disorganized group chat.

Yes. Once a civil lawsuit is underway, parties have the ability to compel other parties (even, sometimes, non-parties to the litigation) to answer questions, produce documents, and do all kinds of other things they might not want to do. There are various justifications but none probably would appeal to you right now based on how annoying it is to get a letter like that. Rule 34 of the various states’ (or federal) Rules of Civil Procedure is a good place to start learning about this.

Good luck, this sounds like an interesting situation.

You wait 3 days and ship 15000 on a single livestock carrier. The trip will take a while but will be "cheap" and efficient.
For example Italy had about 126k immigrants last year so one big ship every month could have solved the issue.
For immigrants who refuse to provide documentation/identificatiin you can just dump them on an isle like Australia is doing. After all nobody is forcing them to conceal their identity. I'm pretty sure that after a while less and less people will be willing to spend their money and resources knowing they will be deported back. At least the economic immigrants.
The less are deported the more will come.
Architecturally, the decoupling works as follows:

Event -> Bus -> UI Subscriber -> Dialog (table)
Event -> Bus -> Log Subscriber -> Console (text)
Event -> Bus -> D-Bus Subscriber -> Relay -> D-Bus -> Publish (TCP/IP)

With D-Bus, published messages are versioned, allowing for API changes without breaking third-party consumers. The D-Bus Subscriber provides a layer of isolation between the application and the published messages so that the two can vary independently.

but OES is not masonry, or is it? if it is, then it should also be allowed to use that name.

i am not against male only groups, i just don't like male (or female) only groups claiming a domain for themselves. if there are male only masonry groups, there should also be female or mixed masonry groups. just like we have male and female and mixed soccer groups or other sports. nobody should be saying that women are not allowed to do something as such an activity is reserved for men. (and the reverse)

boy scouts and girl scouts are explicitly recognizing each other as two different forms of the same activity. saying that girl scouts are not recognized as boy scouts makes no sense. both are scouts (even in countries where the girls call themselves guides)

but you said above that mixed lodges are not recognized. that makes no sense to me, unless they deviate from the ideal of masonry in other ways than just gender. unrecognized scout groups do exist too, for various reasons. the gender of their members is not one of them.
I disagree that charging for usage is guaranteed to kill Twitter.

Charging is a non-starter for a newcomer due to the chicken & egg problem (nobody would pay for a platform with no users, thus it never gains any users), but it's not clear what will happen if an established platform with significant influence starts charging. It's worth a shot.

It could very well be that charging a reasonable amount for access ends up being sustainable and actually improves the platform, both in terms of fighting against unauthorized spam (bots, etc) but also "authorized" spam aka ads and other dark patterns since user-hostile features no longer make sense if it's those same users who now pay for it.

When it comes to monetizing social media without ads, one solution could be to get businesses/commercial entities to subsidize everyone else - using the network for personal use is free but no commercial content is allowed; for that a paid "business" account is required which in turn subsidizes free users.
Leaving aside the convenient assumption that AI will take every job except CEO…this sounds insanely competitive and most people don’t have it in them to do this.
Is it disingenuous? I'd say perhaps hyperbolic or satirical. I remember a time when cars came with DVD players that wouldn't play if the car wasn't in park. People didn't like that so they worked around it. The lockout systems that you describe sound like the impetus for a market of bypasses. I would argue that if such restrictions are necessary then we should reconsider if the screen which necessitates them is necessary.

We seem hard-pressed to consolidate all of a car's functionality into a touch screen, but the UX is often much worse than a physical input whose position never changes and can be felt with your fingers in the dark or in situations where you cannot look at it. This consolidation also seems like it creates a single point of failure: what happens if your screen breaks?

It all seems like tech for tech's sake, things to justify charging more and more for new vehicles while providing manufacturers with a means of pushing updates, displaying ads, and selling services to extract more incremental value from consumers.

I'd like to see a car w/ a screen for a map. That's it. You input your destination on your phone, it shows the map on the screen. The screen is for display only and it's decoupled from all other controls in the car.
I think spending 30+% of income on food is perfectly sensible, while spending more than 10% on shelter is complete madness. A house is built and stays there for decades without any extra work to speak of, yet even the most primitive house in industrialized nations is more expensive than an extremely advanced motorcycle that can go 200mph without breaking apart. Anybody can build a house by himself with primitive tools, trees and stones, given some time. Almost nobody can build a motorcycle by himself, even with advanced precision tools and all instructions given. Not to mention computers, cars and cell phones, which are tremendously advanced.

Considering the labour and resources needed to grow food, compared to the labour and resources needed to build houses, food should be much more of our expenses while housing should be much less.

No offense but that seems like most expensive way to farm it. I mean I get it, you want something that looks nice and works, and not is just an old bucket filled with dirt (which is perfectly fine way to recycle broken bucket, just ugly one), but if you just want tomatoes you don't need to spend all that much so that cost is a bit overcalculated imo.

But still, yeah, at that scale its not much more than a hobby, certainly not a way to save any actual money.

> Hopefully I can amortize the upstart costs over the years and achieve a break even on a long enough timescale :)

Forgive this for being slightly off-topic.

But I've wondered for awhile now, if a MTG-style card game might not be an ideal application for blockchain technology. The anti-counterfeiting concept means that limited numbers of rare (virtual) cards could be issued. A mechanism could surely be developed where the company or group in charge could periodically release new cards (perhaps after the mechanics had been voted on by participants), and issued once or twice a year. And of course, players could transfer cards to each other whenever they liked, either trading them or selling for an agreed upon price.

It just seems like a natural fit. Wonder why no one's doing it.

> So cars are roughly 10 times safer than riding horses?

Well, all of that refers to injury -- which may be serious, but may also be very mild. A sprained ankle is an injury. Horseback riding is a lot like a contact sport; it's very easy to pick up musculoskeletal injuries from getting pulled or thrown (or kicked, which has also happened to me once,) but only a very small proportion of those lead to serious and lasting disability.

If we look solely at fatalities, a different picture might emerge. Automobile injuries are, I surmise, more likely to be very serious or fatal. And, of course, motorcycles are in a different plane of existence entirely.

Frankly I found the whole thing to be shallow and pedantic.
The shape is there. postscript(and I assume PDF) has an arc primitive. however it is rasterized(drawn) in the reference implementation using bezier curves.

Now the postscript to servo control program(g-code?) interpreter might use the same bezier curve approximation, but it might not. I think if it were a formal complaint they would have to positively assert that their machined circles are following an inferior profile rather than just assume they are.

g-code sort of sucks as a language. It is very primitive. I always thought it would be cool to have a postscript dialect that supported more than two axis to use as a low level language on computer driven machine tools.

> a moderate cost of food prepared at home for a family of four (with, say, a 16 year old daughter and 14 year old son) is $1,378.90/mo

I’m not sure how they calculate that (and the page they link to with information is down), but that really doesn’t make sense. For my five person household - five adults - we spend about $800-1000/month on groceries. According to that document, we’d be spending about $1400 on their low-cost plan or $1750 on their moderate-cost plan. But we’re not low-cost: that’s our costs shopping at a fairly upscale grocery store (not Whole Foods, but above average on price) and buying pretty fancy food. Maybe the costs assume no bulk purchases split between multiple members of the household?

I think it is definitely a learning curve thing: when teaching/learning Observables it can help to use a name like EventStreams or PushStreams. (An RxJS "competitor" is named XStream for this among other reasons.) Observable is a simple English word and the meaning of the English word is complicatedly "shadowed" by what the tech means by it.

On the other hand, on the other side of the learning curve, Observable is a great name. It's a simple English word that you can say and write a million times (and you will need to when working with them) without extra PascalCase or things like that. Also, when you look at the overall "family" that Observables fit into, it is a name that fits the family: Iterable/AsyncIterable ("PullStreams") versus Observable ("PushStreams"). (In .NET LINQ the family uses Enumerable/AsyncEnumerable and also extends to Queryable and the strangely named but makes sense in context Qbservable. [QueryableObservable; often pronounced like "cube-servable".]) As a family of tools that all generally work well together and are essentially related in a "four quadrant" way, it helps that they all have a nice -able names that sound related.
Fair point :) And yes, some PDFs use weird ways to represent the spacing between words.
> Poverty didn't start yesterday, nor did the exploitation of natural resources. How is that country so poor and others such as Qatar aren't?

Well because Uranium just isn't gas or petrol, there's no way around it. There's a very limited amount of buyers and most of the actual value is in the power plant.

We don't know how AGI will shake out or, especially, what it will even look like. What does out-competing AGI even mean? One of the most positive outcomes I can think of is AGI being aligned with human interests broadly, but it is doing so much that no one knows wtf is going on. A BCI can bridge that understanding gap to at least keep humans in the know and capable of steering the ship. If the competition is AGI wants to kill us, then we're probably hosed anyway.

That's why I said we need open source and open hardware alternatives. But there's no world where that kind of tech comes first. Companies are going to develop the cutting edge first, when has that not been the case?

I'm really, really happy to see that there's healthy competition in the space. Especially, ironically, from Meta who has just been so great on the open-source front for quite a while.
At the place I played as a kid someone had pinned a black lotus to a notice board with a dart. I was too young so I don't remember the full story, but I remember it was funny because the card would've been worth over a hundred dollars if it hadn't been destroyed. I bet now someone would pay hundreds for the novelty of owning a destroyed black lotus.
It's worth mentioning these screens are not crash tested and can become shards of glass in an accident.

Best one I found is Normalized Mutual Information at 95%. It's a little more complex, but you could still compute it relatively quickly on binarized images.

NMI skimage: ~30 seconds, 95% accuracy
NMI numba *: ~0.6 seconds, 95% accuracy

Here's the code, courtesy of ChatGPT:

@njit(cache=True)
def compute_joint(img1, img2):
stacked = 2 * img1.ravel() + img2.ravel()
return np.bincount(stacked, minlength=4).reshape(2, 2)

@njit(cache=True)
def entropy(counts, total):
# Convert counts to probabilities
p = counts / total
# Only calculate for non-zero entries to avoid log(0)
return -np.sum(p[p > 0] * np.log2(p[p > 0]))

@njit(cache=True)
def normalized_mutual_information(img1, img2):
joint_counts = compute_joint(img1, img2)
total_pixels = 28*28

# Marginal counts
c1 = np.sum(joint_counts, axis=1)
c2 = np.sum(joint_counts, axis=0)

# Compute entropies directly from counts
h1 = entropy(c1, total_pixels)
h2 = entropy(c2, total_pixels)
joint_entropy = entropy(joint_counts.flatten(), total_pixels)

mutual_info = h1 + h2 - joint_entropy
return 2 * mutual_info / (h1 + h2)
Not just touch but proprioception. Robots in human environments will have to be better at proprioception than 98% of humans. If I bump into you it’s typically anything from annoying to a meetcute.
