Yes it's funny I came across that one only a couple weeks ago -- I may have had wind of it before but it didn't sink in -- and it's basically what I'm doing (well at least the first part of what I'm doing)... but in Haskell. It looks like the author got pretty far along, too. But no new commits in some time.

If I'd seen that a year ago, I'm not sure I would have started. Hard to say.

I admire Haskell, but I could never really grok it.
Well I'm one person running several reactive services for fastcomments right now and I have no issues... so in my case the ram is more expensive :p but I am looking forward to benchmarks.

A faster terminal feels better. It is the kind of things that are hard to point out but enough to feel the difference side by side.

I definitely noticed it when I switched from terminator to kitty.

Now the race of which one will cat a large file the fastest is a bit pointless, but it should be fast enough not to add more than a frame of latency for regular use.
The docker containers can have shell scripts inside. The host machine doesn't have a shell. You can bring a docker container with a shell, and run it privileged, to have a shell on the host machine.
I think live performance music is still one of the few things in this hyper capitalist world directed by the performers. I base this absolutely no information expect the interviews I've seen, but it's my impression that performers are heavily involved with everything in a live performance, including the price setting.

That is to say. I think the artist just like the idea of the tickets being affordable to allow their younger and less well off fans access.

I think any argument here has to acknowledge the artists rights in this. Charging more might alleviate the issue, but if private ownership of the performance is to have any meaning, it must include the right to set a price below the market rate. If the artist wants to be "economically inefficient" we as a society must protect that right.

Ignoring how Ticketmaster is complicit in all this... it makes me really sad for humanity that people choose a "job" that is 100% about exploiting people. And that's it entirely legal and "normal" for the most part.

A decade ago or so I went on a first date with a woman who was a professional scalper. Unfortunately I didn't have the balls to ask her about the ethics of what she does. (I expect it would have been something like, "if I don't do it, someone else will".) But it really grossed me out; I just can't respect someone who does something like that.
I'm late to the party, but I wrote my masters thesis on the Frege-Russell distinction, and ambiguity in formal and natural language.

I think this problem is much more complicated than most people realize. Humans are regularly fooled by ambiguity in the "is"-operator, and it is the source of punchlines in many jokes for exactly this reason.

In general, the operator can be broken down into 4 categories:

Identity: Clark Kent is Superman (what this is talking about)

Accident (or Quality): The whale is blue.

Subsumption (or class inclusion): The whale is a mammal.

Existence: The whale is.

The distinction isn't arbitrary, but is isn't impossibly ambiguous, and can be easily understood (the vast majority of the time) by both humans and machines if the underlying qualities of the nouns is understood. This obviously presents a problem for LLM's as they are, essentially, concept free.

I dunno, the wars are good bookends/shorthands for eras in NYC.

"Pre-war" is a term of art in real estate, meaning post-WW1/pre-WW2, when the first big apartment buildings went up. Many of these buildings were the work of craft and are desirable residences today.

"Post-war" is also a term of art- post WW2- and generally means ugly/junky, in real estate terms.

Many of the brownstone/single family townhouse/rowhouse neighborhoods were built before and around the WW 1 time frame, 1890s to 1920s.

The need to refer to it is infrequent, but "antebellum"- literally also "pre-war"- is recognizable for pre- but proximate to the Civil War. The Civil War was so momentous, it deserves its own latin reference, lol. In real estate terms few structures remain of course, but it is helpful in terms of history to distinguish from the Revolutionary period (1760s to 1790s) and the immediate post-Revolutionary period, when tons of things happened. 1810 in Manhattan was when the grid plan was laid down and that period through the 1840s saw a huge population boom and the initial transition of NYC real estate from home/workshop of artisans to predominantly income production.

You'd still be complaining in that case that "he got an attitude and refused to play the song".

And perhaps he cared to not hurt them by not playing it at all, but was hurt himself and pissed that they cared for the "hits" and didn't appreciate his performance. How about that?

The thing is, it's his concert. The artist choses the songlist. Would they pull the same shit on Miles Davis, or do they think because it's rock, the singer is their performing monkey?

Elon keeps regressing Twitter, and Threads keeps progressing.

It ceased to be a matter of "if", and it's now a "when".

Also, Threads is still not available in some countries.
For the record. I get like this when I'm really geeking out over something. I also know that I can be exhausting to listen to when I'm like this, and try to tone it down depending on my audience. Though, if I was a youtube personality I would probably try to lean into it slightly.
Normally, a studio apartment is not an endgame but a stepping stone: once you have it and paid out mortgage, you can sell it and buy a 2-3 bedroom unit. Are these actually not available?

It's a reasonable hypothesis that happens to be politically inconvenient, as if it turns out to be the one that best explains the available data, this is another nail in the coffin of an ideology that is already severely weakened by significant challenges in many areas, despite so many of its acolytes having already gone all-in.

Learning is the mostly blind accumulation of knowledge that will hopefully be beneficial (and not detrimental to the excess of that benefit, which is not a given) in the future. Targeted study is the exception, even for humans.

This is also a somewhat better description of evolution than yours because benefit in excess of detriment is not a guarantee and the process is not blind (because animals breed selectively).

>Without the performing part you're not really a performing artist anymore.

Performing is not the same as entertaining.

Performing just means putting up a performance, that is playing in front of an audience. It could be a "top hits meddley crowd pleaser"or it could be an expression of things you want to explore as an artist, or anything in between.

>Performing artists are free to alienate their audiences if they wish, but the consequences aren't necessarily positive for anyone.

That's for the artist to decide. Some artists could not give less fucks about the consequences, and if they did they'd be in boy bands.
Scalping is legal in most jurisdictions, sometimes with restrictions (“no selling within 1000ft of the venue for more than 20% over face”.

Lately I've been thinking more about the craft of creating than the outcome of what people want.

This separation from creation to outcome is a nice feeling, and I think has let me be a bit more creative (though that has never been a big problem for me).
Which side cares about them? Those who are stigmatizing a population with high suicide rates? Or those who have successfully spearheaded a societal shift which has led more people to identify as trans, while trans people collectively still claim high rates of suicidal ideation.

I don’t see any evidence that mental health in the transgender or general population has actually improved, I’ve seen numbers suggesting societal wide mental health is on the decline, and I have seen a pretty large increase in the absolute numbers of people who say their gender dysphoria makes them suicidal. I can find research that suggests transgender people who receive more medical treatment and societal acceptance are less suicidal than those who do not, but that doesn’t actually demonstrate that trans acceptance will lead to less suicidality and better mental health at the societal level. Or even really at the individual level, since correlation is not causation.

On top of all that, most past research of this sort is potentially non-reproducible at this point because the trans population has expanded so rapidly. Three times as many trans men started visiting clinics in the course of a decade. So the research will have to be done all over again to discount this possibility but this has not been done.

So I don’t know, I’m with Hossenfelder and her radical centrism because I think nobody is actually acting scientifically re: trans people and they’re just playing it by ear. What I detest is the unwarranted certainty and lack of scepticism people have on this topic; People are just guessing and are acting like they are not.
It's a risky investment strategy to put so much emphasis on AI startups. Not only do you have the already volatile nature of early-stage software companies (which YC is of course used to), but this is a bet on whether machine learning, chiefly LLMs, are going to continue to outperform other technologies and become sustainable to run.

There's no question in my mind that 'Open'AI is subsidizing the vast majority of LLM research and use today. If the efficacy of LLaMA and its derivatives actually start to approach GPT4+ in any meaningful way, there is quickly going to be a shortage of suitable compute that will completely dwarf the now-subsided Bitcoin mining craze. Plus, untainted training data is going to be harder to find amongst the text contaminated with mountains of early LLM drivel.

As a technology expert, I couldn't in all honesty say that I would want to have money in the YC fund right now. But if it pays off, it could be the biggest software windfall since social networking took off at the beginning of the 2010s.

Try just reading the intro. It gives you 3 very simple exercises that work surprisingly fast and are pretty easy to do

No shit.

I don’t think you understand what I’m talking about. Powershell isn’t just a shell with some rudimentary flow control, like every Unix shell since thr 1960s. Powershell can hook together apps with a rich IPC objects, not just the old stream of bytes that kicked off this thread. In fact, I specifically mentioned its rich IPC as its nifty feature, and a feature that I did not understand how it worked, especially since it works in a backwards compatible fashion. THAT’S the thing that moves it beyond a stream of random bytes, to something with semantics. Maybe you didn’t know that, but it does. In fact, when it came out that was its marquee feature. That’s why I’m talking about IPC, and and the fucking programs. No one give a shit about a janky ass .sh file. It’s the thing that go in it. If the programs being connected together don’t understand the rich IPC channel, you’re stuck in the 1960s, like every other shell and scripting language, and so Powershell’s benefits are nonexistent.

This thread went from interesting to absolutely infuriating because you keep smuggly chiming in about things you apparently don’t understand.
My impractical solution: no resale of tickets, and check of ID at the door. It’ll slow things down for check in, and people sick will miss out, but it will collectively bring prices down and increase seat availability.
Just like the job of every sports league president isn’t to keep the fans (or the players) happy. It’s to distract anger from the team owners.
Maybe it depends on the equipment. My stove can heat soup much faster than my microwave. Not to mention in the microwave you have to constantly stir to make sure it’s not still cold in the middle, because a microwave doesn’t heat evenly.
But you still don't even get to see the band, because if they sell the tickets below the market clearing price they sell out before you can get one and then aren't available at any price.

I like your take on it compared to pyp at first glance because it uses a clearer API (xargs instead of just wildcard pipe) and a more appropriate name (pypyp is nonsense) even if it has fewer features.

This has been the same scam for decades, there's always motivation, financially, for people to subvert the rules, and ticketmaster wins either way. After stubhub/ebay basically legitimized scalping, it was all over.

Know how I dealt with ticket scalping? I stopped going to shows like that in the 90's, then stopped buying cd's, and eventually stopped supporting the music industry (and media cartels in general).

This seems like a huge effort and a pretty well rounded language. Could even succeed Python in some spaces. I like the syntax being unobtrusive as well.

I’d love to see it being used to write modules usable from Python code. This could provide a smooth migration path to apps that benefit less from Python’s dynamic nature and more from C-like speeds.
I think the point is that under this proposed anti-scalper system, you get 1 ticket per ID. Otherwise it's gameable.

> State has to be owned by a process - who owns the state of the world? ... Keep in mind, when data is passed "between" processes it is deep copied.

The Erlang runtime has other stateful things besides processes, and manipulating data within these and/or getting a handle on data in these places doesn't necessarily involve copying.

• ETS tables, which hold state privately to themselves (with copying in/out) in a similar way to how processes do. If you manipulate data inside ETS tables by "sending compute to data" (think Redis INCR) rather than by "sending data to compute", then no copying happens.

• "Globals" in the form of data compiled into read-only versioned modules loaded into the modules table and available to be referenced from any/all active processes, only copied if the module gets unloaded before the process dies. (Originally this was just a design pattern — https://github.com/discord/fastglobal — but it eventually became its own runtime feature in Erlang 22, https://www.erlang.org/doc/man/persistent_term).

• Large binaries (anything over 64 bytes) aren't allocated in an actor's memory arena, but instead are allocated in a special global-per-node binaries heap, and then ref-counted, where each actor-process holds one reference to each large-binary it's using, and then each read-only slice of that binary, in turn holds a reference to the per-actor reference handle for the binary. One clever technique for sharing a large "database" of data between many actors, is to store the data encoded in a large binary in an encoding that is efficient to partwise-decode; and have the "lookup" operation just parse+decode the appropriate data out of the binary. (This is how erlang:module_info/2 used to work — the global modules-table itself holding a set of references to the loaded modules' binaries, which module_info would then parse metadata out of on demand.)
If we can avoid destroying ourselves, we will achieve it.
