Fwiw, I didn't mean to imply that they don't know any language theory, just that the language doesn't seem to reflect it. I don't think this itself should be a controversial statement, by the way, Go aims to be a simple language, and the last thing it needs is monads.

Frankly, I'm just the type of person who doesn't understand why it is possible to silently drop error values in Go (even accidentally), see

f, err := os.Open("foo.txt")
g, err := os.Open("bar.txt")

if err != nil {
return
}

while the language is simultaneously very strict about eg. unused imports.

It seems like a pretty severe flaw for a language that takes pride in its explicit error handling, and a deep dive into why this flaw was acceptable to the creators would be really interesting.

For now though, instead of sum types we ended up with features such as named returns (???). I imagine some of the complexity here was about not wanting to introduce an explicit tuple-type, since a Result<S, E>-type doesn't compose with multiple returns. (I feel like there should be some workaround here. Maybe anonymous structs + some sort of struct/tuple unpacking, but I could see it getting gnarly.)

> I'm not entirely sure what you mean when you say that Go doesn't use interface types for its error handling, since the language-defined error type is in fact an interface type.

What I meant is that this specific usecase of sum-types (ie. error-unwrapping) is not something that interfaces in Go are used for. Error-handling in Go is done via multiple return values. This goes against the common claim that "sum types and interfaces are too similar/have the same uses", and should count for something, considering that explicit error handling is a big component of Go.

Agreed. TFA author either currently or previously worked for Ubuntu, so it makes sense to me that they are a big proponent of Snap. Personally, I would rather build from source than install a Snap.

I bought a Nissan this year. I paired my phone and granted access to contacts, but not messages. Every time I turn it on it shows a popup asking to grant access to my phone's messages. I decline each time, and each time it comes back. It's like they build these products with complete disregard for user choice. "We don't care that they decline, show it again until they submit". I've been a developer of products that do this, and it's never a bug, it's always intentional. You mention to the product manager how this is undesirable behavior, and sometimes even implement it in a choice respecting way, but are quickly overridden and asked to correct.
That's ridiculous. You're asking me to believe in sentient meat?

>I live in Mumbles, which is spelt "Mwmbwls" in Welsh.

Ah Welsh, the golden standard of phonetic spelling and easy pronunciation!

In other words, one needs a manual just to learn how to pronounce the name of that thing.

Off to a great start, aren't we?

>An explanation is at the very bottom of the github Readme

AKA the first place anyone visiting the website would look at. NOT.

Did writing "pronounced Mumble" on the landing page hurt puppies or something?

>"don't search, just mumble!"

I think half of the country is already doing that when it comes to fact-checking, and they certainly don't need a search engine for that.

And here I was thinking GIMP was a horrible name.

Many comments on the YouTube story suggested it was just YouTube deciding they didn’t want to be associated with Brand anymore, and he could always find another platform. I think this substantially changes this argument.

That would arguably still be better for the planet. Plant agriculture is lower-impact and poses far less threat to biodiversity and the human species via disease vectors.

Take for example that lettuce is a leading cause of food-born illness. It's actually because there's poop from animals on it, and it almost always comes from agricultural animals with the intent of it functioning as fertilizer. Without that factor, plants would be far safer.

There isn't much about animal ag that makes good sense apart from "it tastes good".

Points taken. I'll be trying to keep an open mind.
My whole point and I discussed this up thread is that things like restorative agriculture and agroforestry require a fuck-ton more human labor.

> The benefits would be enormous. And with 40-70% of jobs being bullshit jobs I'm not even afraid we would fill those positions. It's just a matter of regulation and preferences.

This is total nonsense. When most people worked on farms, food comprised more than 30% of peoples' budgets. The idea that we could have a modern society with 40-70% of people shifting to agricultural labor is on its face ridiculous. You're making a utopian argument here and hand waving away the real problems involved in sending so many people back to agriculture.

> Plant-based diets are an innovation

Nowhere am I arguing against plant-based diets. You're arguing against a straw man. I'm also not anywhere here or at any point saying that the status quo of human calorie composition is ideal. I said that as it stands, our best effort to date to feed 8+ billion people has AT PRESENT negative externalities. I agree that problems are worth addressing, and you seem to be dead set on having an argument with me about something I'm not saying.
Nice work! Always fun to see something I wrote long ago reverse engineered. The packet format was indeed inspired by ESP over UDP, and I named it XSP. After system link shipped with the original launch of the console, I also worked on Xbox Live networking, including the client/server interactions and the design and implementation of the front-end Security Gateways that all Xboxes would talk to, first to authenticate themselves to the service, and then to maintain a heartbeat connection to the service (to keep NAT ports open during idle time), and to facilitate NAT traversal.
The accept button is a one time deal. You click it and never hear about it again. Deny on the other hand causes the same question to come up again and again. They want you either to get fed up and accept it or accidentally accept it.
That would be a good use of AI. I'm just affraid that this would directly need to Skynet or something if we slapnoir smart devices too often.

Indeed, they will need to check your story, and that's a whole lot easier when they know your identity (otherwise they have to verify your identity in other ways, which will certainly take more time...).
Feature Team A is working on New Functionality 1, Feature Team B is working on New Functionality 2, but no Feature Team wants to be responsible for all these weird interactions like pop-ups. That doesn't get you promoted.
It's tricky for some cars. Things like non-standard sizes for the opening. Important functionality baked into the head unit (Volvo, for example, has paths to configure some safety options, trip/mpg display, etc). Integration for steering wheel controls, rear displays, backup cameras. And more that I'm missing off the top of my head.

For some vehicles, some of the above have options to tie in with a 3rd party setup, others don't.
I've been playing Magic for 22 years. I think this is a good idea, but I'm not as confident as you are about the timing. I think this would've been a much better idea pre-MTGA.

As you mention, MTG represents all of Hasbro's profits. I don't feel that there is a way for them to escape the allure of watering down the MTG market in pursuit of more money. I feel they will kill the golden goose. At some point the physical printing process has to become a liability, right?

I don't know what percent of MTG newcomers play paper-only. Perhaps it is a lot, but my gut says that MTGA is the on-ramp for newcomers. With the digital cards not being able to be traded - newcomers aren't building the expectations that your tool is appealing to. Your tool is more useful to those who are already entrenched in the physical game space.

A counterpoint to what I'm saying is that Flesh & Blood has been doing well enough and Disney just entered into the space with their own, paper only, card game. So perhaps I'm wildly off base and the physical market is experiencing a resurgence?
In previous discussions about how shitty touchscreen car interfaces are, people have been mentioning that new cars must provide a backup camera. I'd like to have just the camera, but why would manufacturers stop there when they can ship spyware as well? The screen is the expensive part.
Qualia is how to discuss the problem of consciousness without a pointless discussion about if this is the opposite of unconscious, the opposite of subconscious, something that needs a soul, or any of the other things that go wrong if you don't taboo the "c" word.

We don't know the answers (nor, I assert, the correct questions), though "what even is this?" and "what has it?" were already relevant to animal rights questions (qualia might have started with humans, but there's no reason to assume that) well before current AI, and even if we find a convenient proof that current AI definitely can't and that's fine… some of us want to advance the AI to at least as far as brain uploading where the qualia is the goal, though virtual hells like in the novel Surface Detail seem to me to be an extremely plausible dystopian outcome if uploads ever actually happen.
You appear to be making an unfounded assumption that regardless of how many owners it has, any given vehicle will remain on the road the exact same number of years.

If an owner decides to keep and maintain their car longer than they would have in the past, that car will stay out of the junkyard longer and therefore reduce the need to produce new cars. They will use some of the money they would have spent on a new car to keep the old one going longer, and still pocket the rest of it as savings.

> true AGI

What is that? Most humans have general intelligence, but do other apes? Do dogs? A quick google search suggests that the answer is yes.

If that’s the case, then this approach may indeed yield an AGI but maybe it’s not going to be much better than a golden retriever. Truly excellent at some things, intensely loyal (I hope), but goofy at most other things.

Or maybe just as dogs will never understand calculus, maybe our future AGI will understand things that we will not be able to. It seems to me that there’s a good chance that AGI (and intelligence in general) is a spectrum.
You did miss a bubble but the 1993/94 stuff is still crazy valuable.
> Imagine being able to both see the road AND quickly sketch out an idea with a co-worker on the windshield during your commute

This is quite a disingenuous take on the screens in a car though. They usually only allow limited interactions while the vehicle is in motion, so that example of sketching out an idea with a coworker already isn't supposed to be happening with the current systems while the vehicle is in motion.

My passenger can't type something while the vehicle is moving, and if they scroll through lists too fast it'll go into a timeout mode for a few seconds because it assumes the driver is paying too much attention to the screen. Coupled with driver attention tracking systems on current Euro cars (and it sounds like future US cars as well) it can really enforce that a driver doesn't pay too much attention directly to the screen or other things in the car.
I wonder if giving cars a sense of touch is what will ultimately be the key to enable full autonomous driving

Are there any cars out there that have something like a sense of touch and with it can sense the road or things that they crash into?
Assuming you use credit cards and debit cards over cash.

An E-wallet offers no more control over you than standard debit and credit cards. If this nebulous WEF really wanted to screw you over and had control over these E-wallets what makes you think they wouldn't have control over payment processors or credit card companies? The vast majority of transactions are already digital, all this initiative does really is allow to you handle it via your phone instead of reaching for you wallet.

It might make tracking you more easy, but the technology already exists and is employed to track you. Credit Card companies and payment processors keep track of your transactions and it is trivial for them to trace it to a single individual.

"AI-first infrastructure companies like Coreweave, Lambda Labs, Foundry, Replicate and Modal are unbundling the public clouds and providing what AI companies need most: plentiful GPUs at a reasonable cost, available on-demand and highly scalable, with a nice PaaS developer experience."

> (for those who don't know too, percentages are reversible so at 10% you double your money every 7 years...)

That is not true at all. "Percentages are reversible" means that 30% of 50 is the same as 50% of 30, so 15. It does not mean that anywhere you see a percent related to another number, you can just switch them around.

Easy counterexamples:

At 100% annual interest, you double your money every 1 year. At 1% annual interest, you double your money every 70 years.

At 41% annual interest, you double your money every 2 years. At 2% annual interest, you double your money every 35 years.
Several times in my life, years of difficult and inexplicable behavior by someone important to me (or myself), has benefited from an awareness of a neurotype, learning style, thinking practice, personality disorder, trauma pattern, etc.

It's important not to "diagnose" people. But these patterns are real and shed light on logics we operate with.

A little understanding goes a long way.

It makes sense that our brain, like any device class, has common patterns of high/low performance and failure.

I don't know where in education exposure to practical psychology makes sense. But a formal psychology class is too late, too narrow, too short, and too segregated a context: as the article points out.

We don't want to interrupt children's development with psychological concepts they are not ready for. But it would be nice to understand each other better, earlier.

That is an interesting education problem.

A related thought. There are so many areas of vitally useful knowledge, but turning each area into a formal subject isn't possible or necessary.

All that is needed for many great ideas is exposure.

Many geniuses' benefited as children from frequent informal discussions with knowledgable curious persons.

Perhaps a daily open discussion lunch hour could provide that exposure. Where all manner of subjects are discussed, and all kinds of questions are welcome.

It could be the easiest most impactful class of the day.
No idea what you are talking about with Threads.

The reason people stopped using it was because after the initial install they realised it was missing basic features like a web app, search, chronological feed etc.

Yeah that's the usual argument and I don't agree.

It's true that 99.9% of production log errors are NoMethodError exceptions.

annnnnd 99.9% of those NoMethodErrors are just code not handling nils/nulls correctly

annnnnd 99.9% of those unhandled runtime nils/nulls are from external data (user inputs, database data, etc)

So strong typing doesn't help you there at runtime, it just blows up differently.

The satellite imagery will either be too expensive or too out of date. Also lawn care is just one aspect. These drone platforms will have real time data, Amazon will sell it - there's little doubt about that unless there's a regulatory reason. Insurance, live police monitoring, product purchase/usage, snapshots of the inside of your house through the window. All of that, and more, is on the table.

Delivery drones (which is part of the topic at hand) will absolutely fly by my window, otherwise how will they deliver the packages? Flying above my house still means I see the drones from my window.

Ads? Just beam images down or in the sky. Airplanes do this now during big sporting events and such. Buy a car! So and so are getting married! Etc.

Oh I can see it now. Coordinated drone ads where they'll fly over the sky and let me know it's Black Friday Only at Wal-Mart or I can get the best deal on a new Samsung OLED Smart TV now by scanning the drone QR code with my mobile phone!

The people who run the software have the same "equal rights" as humans. If you're allowed to download one of those images and look at it, they're allowed to download it and train their software with it.

You're trying to invent new intellectual property rights out of thin air. No thanks, we already have more than enough of that lunacy.
