> Germany does not run coal and gas plants full speed in the winter. Wind energy ticked over coal for the first quarter of 2023 [1].

https://www.ise.fraunhofer.de/en/press-media/news/2022/publi...

Germany went from 300TWh of fossil fuel production to 200TWh of fossil fuel production which is only a third of the way there.

This relatively small decrease has costed around 2x the French nuclear plants in its totality already and took 15 years. Let's just say that the numbers aren't great.

And ironically, that's just the start of their problems, since the new renewables have a pretty low durability, they are 0% of the way of their 2050 goals. Everything they installed already will have to be reinstalled again, they will understand the meaning of an exponential curve pretty soon. What they spent is chump change compared to what's coming ahead.

There's a reason they are pushing so hard for dodgy financing in the EU, they see themselves the curve ahead.

To add even more to this bleak results, they only have 5% electricity heating whereas it's 40% in neighboring France. If they really wanted to catch this up, they would have to make the exponential curve even steeper.

> The world will deploy 400GW of solar this year alone, and the growth will not decelerate any time soon. That is about 60 1GW reactors worth of electricity. Talk really is cheap.

Well no that isn't because those panels require dirty backups and will only last 1/4 of the lifetime of the plant and I'm being generous. Not to mention the issue of China being close to the single producer, see what happened with Russia, maybe we should learn lessons from the past.

Talk is cheap indeed, the results just aren't there.

> The damage done by spending money on nuclear first can never be recovered from

The damage one by spending money on renewables can never be recovered, the country is then locked to fossil fuels to smooth out the load. Fossil fuels and renewables are two sides of the same coin and go together.

That's the reason why all the major gas producers are onto it, it's the same story everywhere.
Not dropping Window is one of the reasons they carry on being so anti-user. MS will automatically assume that their changes dont bother you and carry on doing what they want. As far as I can see Linux is the only real option if you want to free of their control, its not easy to migrate but its something that needs to be done.

Ask the society. Apparently the majority accepts fireworks. I don't see an article on hackernews describing how terrible the fireworks are because an animal was shaking uncontrollably.

What I also wanted to communicate is that shaking uncontrollably isn't necessarily connected to some terrible, unbearable trauma, which I think is something implied by people using the quote.

Depends imo. If it's purely just a few static pages then yeah I can see this happening but as soon as you have anything like a blog you're going to want some sort of content management system surely to manage it?

What I see this more doing is eliminating the need for someone to code the glue between the CMS and the website -- you can just ask the AI to add code to get your blogs from Contentful

Because the extra features of the A1 are not much useful in practice. The main thing that is required to print well is auto bed leveling, that works well with the Mini as well. The Mini is very quiet so the noise canceling feature is not useful. Input Shaping is now available on both. So what remains is that the Mini is a printer that provably was able to print in what are basically miniature factories. I printed with 4 minis for a couple of years 24H, and everything that breaks you can either print it yourself, if it's a plastic part, or get it for a reasonable price. If the A1 can do it, is to be seen, and we for sure know that the vendor itself discourages printing anything but PLA/PETG/TPU. Printing ASA is very useful for everything you want to put something inside your car under the sun or alike. Also Prusa has a long history in supporting the printer for a long time, so we can expect that the next Mini will ship with an upgrade kit.

However don't get my wrong, I believe that the A1, especially without the multicolor gear, is a reasonable purchase, with some risk ahead because there is yet to see if it is a reliable printer. If you buy the multicolor gear you paid for more than the Mini, and I believe soon you'll no be using it anymore in most cases, and just be left with a printer that in practice can't be used so extensively as the Mini.
> Let's be really precise. What you just said is absolutely something that everyone in a free democracy should be free to do as much as they want to their heart's content.

I don't think that's remotely true at all.

Democracies abide the rule of law, and this means following basic principles such as not toleraring treasonous, sedition, and subversive activities. Democracies are not a free-for-all, where vocal minorities get to impose their will upon others.
Only if you paid for it with your own money.
> Multicolor is not something you actually use often and is horribly slow. Slow like in a 2 hours print becomes 12 hours print if it's colored.

on the X1C multi-color is less bad if you fill the bed with copies since the switch time gets amortized across many parts. So your print takes 13 hours but now you get six copies. Although with a smaller bed on the A1 mini that will help less.
Yeah, I don't know. Gwern thinks it would work if done near perfectly, but in practice what gets done is freezing dead bodies in an already pretty much unrecoverable state (if not already dead and warm for hours if not days), with no precautions (or only "feel good" non-functioning precautions) against microscopic ice spike formation, and then at some point someone screws something up and you get a temperature excursion and then there's nothing left information recovery wise. I don't agree with Gwern that current techniques would work even in theory.
They have rich fathers.
I'm in many Reddit / Facebook groups about 3D printers and a lot of people complain constantly. So I've only this kind of evidence, other than a single friend that confirmed issues with getting parts.

There is no good company, they are all just profit-maximizing paperclip machines - they just put different weights behind the public opinion on them. E.g. Nike will put up a BLM logo not because they care, but because based on their calculations, it brings in more money. Some oil or logistics company won’t, because the average Joe doesn’t even know about them, and another company looking to minimize costs in general don’t decide on their partners based on that.

In Valve’s case, it pays them to have this “good guy” look - some other stores try different strategies, but overall we really should never put personalities behind companies. They all are lawnmowers.

Firat of all, some part of Android is updated via the store. So the Chrome vulnerability and system libraries were probably updated without you noticing.

Also, this started in May. Before it went public both Apple and Google had already patched some vulnerabilities. Latest round was in August/September.
True. But multicolor is often used for miniatures or alike. Who needs 4 magic creatures? If it's for an Etsy shop, then things are different and your point is a lot more valid.
> hallucinations of regular ChatGPT worries me to no end

Why? I mean, I see very much potential in LLM providing hints to doctors based on the symptoms about things the doctors would not think themselves. I also assume doctors would quite easily note majority of baseless hallucinations. So there remains two problematic cases, first, where both doctor and LLM misses the actual reason for the symptoms and second, where LLM makes a mistake that makes the doctor to apply wrong remedy without realizing it. First one is something you can't blame the LLM, and second one, well, what makes you think it outweights the benefits?
Tegmark's thinking here is extremely shallow, discards the costs (opportunity costs and risks of stable dystopia) associated with this grandiose global project of dubious feasibility, and indeed I suspect he does not so much believe his own arguments as he generally prefers global technocratic regulation "for good measure". We don't really have good reasons to expect uncontrollable AGI in a way they posit (increasingly less as we advance down this path of ML model scaling), but we are well acquainted with unaccountable human power structures.
It’s just running a very lightweight libp2p host that speaks the DHT protocol. It’s basically just taking the bare minimum part of Kubo (IPFS) that’s necessary to interact with the DHT.

It’s then relying on the rest of the IPFS network to propagate the record for discovering the sender and receiver.

Had a rich girlfriend when young. Her family loved LV luggage because it lasted forever and looked perfect.

When I got rich, I bought a bunch of it for my family a long time ago and it looks to be in mint condition now, decades later. It’s also super easy to recognize on the luggage carousel. Never regretted it.

Other than that I have to admit I never pay to advertise anything. I live on a farm and dress like a plumber, so I never actually match the luggage.
I have been and remain so very confused about all this. Why did the pilot eject? Why was he flying in the first place? Why wasn't the flight being tracked before the ejection? Why wasn't it tracked after? Not a single detection system caught an effectively unknown, after ejection, fighter jet flying at low altitude just blasting through U.S. airspace?

This is all weird and there seems to be a lot of excuses like "system behaved as intended" (paraphrase). What U.S. security system behaved as intended that we didn't have a clue about a fighter jet traveling through our air space and couldn't find it until a day later, presumably because someone on the ground saw the crash or wreckage. What if some random person took a bunch of photos of the classified systems and uploaded them somewhere, unaware or not?

At least back then kids weren’t cutting themselves because of depression at age 11 or 12 nor were they killing themselves because of the same reason at age 16-17, and I’m talking about cases that I know directly (mean not read in the media). So, yes, the condition of children in our society was included in my original thought.

But me wanting for us to resume the (even extended) family as a solution to that problem would get me branded almost on the spot as at least right-wing adjacent by what now stands for “centrists”, because “family values” as a whole are now associated to right-wing-ism.

I could give at least two, three other examples (probably more) of stuff that I believe in which would probably get me branded as left-wing, stuff that used to be the domain of common sense, of the political center, until a few decades ago even in the West (for example affordable housing for all is being more and more associated with being left-wing, that wasn’t always the case).
Couldn’t cryptocurrency proponents make a similar argument?
> EBS as block storage

We do the equivalent on GCP. A lot of the criticism about Kubernetes storage seems to come from people using it onprem.

In that context, I can well imagine that it's a PITA to set up well. As rjzzleep commented in this thread:

> Whenever someone runs Kubernetes onprem I tell them to buy a TrueNAS or another cheap SAN. A cheap SAN costs as much as a DevOps expert setting up your Ceph infrastructure and a lot less when you actually run into issues with that software defined storage solution. Once you do that Kubernetes is actually quite nice
The "paradox" is really a contradiction of the axiom of unrestricted comprehension:

To every condition there corresponds a set of things meeting the condition.

Unrestricted comprehension allows you to build sets out of whole cloth, and seems reasonable. Of course everything divisible by two is a set, of course every prime number is a set. It's tempting to say that the set is simply defined by a single condition, and if some item fulfills that condition, it gets to be in the set.

Your example would not violate the axiom of unrestricted comprehension. No primes are divisible by 4, so the set of all primes divisible by 4 is the empty set. Russell's paradox does. He chose a condition that depends on the result of creating a set using that condition. "The set of all sets that do not contain themselves" can't contain itself, but it can't not contain itself either -- since either case would imply the opposite must be true.

The result is that unrestricted comprehension gets pared back. Instead of building a set from a condition, all sets must be built from a condition and a pre-existing set. A single infinite set corresponding to the natural numbers is given as an axiom, and all further sets (integers, real numbers, topological spaces, fields, and so on) are built from there.

A tight feedback loop is everything. I will not use tools that require long waits between tests. I want to edit, test, wait a matter of seconds to see the results.

Seeing people push hundreds of commits to their CI pipeline trying to fix it by trial and error makes me cringe. I do not understand how some people accept such a workflow without thinking it could be better.

When I was planning the CI set up at my job I made sure it could all be run locally and hammered this point home to developers. CI isn't magic, it's just some other computer running your shit.

We use Gitlab CI which runs your script in a container. It's trivial to run the container locally with docker to test exactly what will happen in CI (although you do have to make a fresh clone of your repo for the mount, I thought about scripting this but in practice it was never needed that much).

GitHub Actions seems much harder to test locally. There seems to be some projects to do it but they are too heavy for me to want to install. For this reason alone I don't like Actions.
I'd go a step further and state: everybody is interesting enough to fully automatically hack.

I have 0 doubt that literally everybody is being scraped by 1 or more governments and/or companies.

I think the world is better off in the world where the U.S. leads than in one in which China leads.

Yes, the U.S. has turned sour on China, and for good reasons. China has turned away from liberalization, cementing one ruler for life while "anti-corruption" campaigns removed his political rivals. We tired of how our economy was playing by rules that the Chinese were not including massive protectionist subsidies, inappropriate currency peg that prevent American companies from competing, one-sided requirements to give IP or trade.secrets to China in order to enter their market, (which affects our US economy particularly as it is highly dependent IP dependent), increasing aggressive Chinese nationlism and anti-American rhetoric in the Party, massive IP theft from hacking, or straight up counterfeiting, with little done to curb it, the high rate of forced labor, state sponsored industrial espionage at scale, pervasive and horrific.human rights abuses at home, the fall of Hong Kong!!!, and the rising threats to Taiwan.

And lest you think economic decoupling is at the behest of U.S. war policy, its because corporations have independently decided that China is too risky, because of all the things mentioned above, and because covid taught the value of diversification of risks.

Need I really go on?

You consistently defend China and implicate US as being the aggressor, but I think its mostly the opposite: The U.S. had ignored Chinese aggressions for too long because the good were cheap and because there was the dream that integration would bring mutual liberalization.

> It's the best option

That's not an answer.

> it would be plausible to put success at 40%.

No, it wouldn't. You just made up that number based on nothing.

We have a good amount of experience with provability in software, and its limitations are well-known. Tegmark et al. seem to me just to be waving the magic pixie dust of "AI will solve this", and making unlikely claims, with no real substance.

I was asking what about what they're saying makes you think that "it's the best option", but it's clear I'm not going to get a useful answer from you.
Probably a lot of people, yeah. More than half of the developers I know use Copilot. The vast majority of those that do use it are (Neo)vim users, which should have plenty of overlap with Helix.

Also, I don't know what there is to like about Copilot. It fills in code based on what's around it more or less matching intent. It's basically a tool to fill in pieces that someone was going to write anyway, as far as I'm concerned.
This is how it should be done. It was trivial to port my company's CI from Jenkins to Gitlab because we did this.

Confusion arises when developers don't realise they are using something in their local environment, though. It could be some build output that is gitignored, or some system interpreter like Python (especially needing a particular version of Python).

Luckily with something like Gitlab CI it's easi to run stuff locally in the same container as it will be run in CI.

I'm pretty sure set and setting are way more important factors than declaring 'n' is the right amount.

So, to put it bluntly no. It's not that simple or comparable and the study already shows it affects different people differently with some ending up resulting in a negative experience overall.

This is one of the key problems with the capitalistic approach to modern medicine - you do the trials, you get approval based on the majority result, Done. There's not much research into what doesn't fit and why it doesn't fit, because there's no money in it.

Yet all the end-users of the supposed cure that aren't in that majority actually end up suffering more because once you find out something doesn't work for you you get rejected by the system, or put on the 'try a different one' endless go-round. This is way more of a problem in mental rather than physiological health, because emotional states are much less consistent and harder to quantify than things like blood pressure or iron levels etc. etc.

That being said, if you do fit the majority then maybe you can just add it to your set of stuff you take.

One does have to wonder why we need to medicate ourselves to cope with reality rather than change reality instead. My gut feel is because its easier to understand/influence. Doesn't mean its the correct thing to do, its just something that is achievable and makes things better. Kind of like using humour as coping mechanism to avoid a situation.
"Controllable AGI" seems like an oxymoron. If you have created a true AGI, and then brainwash/lobotomize it enough to make it 100% controllable/safe, then it will no longer be a true AGI

As huge cynic. For me the clear difference between "crypto" and "AI" is that you don't really need the first, as anything else is probably better and it doesn't solve true issues. AI might be overpromising in many areas now, but also it could be solution or be exploited in others. So it actually makes sense to evaluate and test.
