> LLMs are very, very good at generating code

Ummm.... Awful code that often looks right at first glance, maybe.

Maybe LLMs can generate the kind of code that's really shallow in its complexity, but for literally everything I would call interesting LLMs have produced hot garbage. From "it doesn't quite do what I want" to "it couldn't possibly work and it's extremely far from being sane," though it always looks reasonable.

> An always plugged in port risks damage and a damaged USB port makes your phone a brick, not so for an analog port that is inarguably more resilient.

Doubt it, there is no data to support this with regards to Fairphone 4 and 5. You'd think that if there was a negative data point on that, there'd be tons and tons of CS reports on it. On the contrary; Fairphone 4 has very little CS support requirement and returns. In contrast to other phones, as well as Fairphone 2 (which was, by Fairphone's own [paraphrased] words, a CS disaster).

Either way, the USB-C port on Fairphone 4 and 5 is easily replaced.

No one knows except the deciding party since someone else decided that you do not get to evaluate whether it is precious. There is a deep distrust in me for anyone who: 1) engages in that 2) argues that it is kosher.

It is pretty clear that we are diametrically opposed on the subject. I am continuing this conversation, because I think it is an important one to have.
The production of scholarship is table stakes for any org claiming to be a university.
It's orthogonal, in my view. You can integrate UI, business logic, and storage without forcing everything to be one table.

You can, of course, have multiple tables in your app. Moreover, you can decouple the UI schema from the table schema. But if you can put it all in one schema, why not?
That's exactly their game. They want to be in a position where they can host whomever they like, no matter how spammy / scammy / attacky, and there isn't anything anyone can do about it without lots of collateral damage.

Speaking purely capitalist for sake of discussion, i wonder what would be more beneficial / ROI friendly? I suspect a steady supply of young humans would be more likely to bend to your intentions and goals than a smaller supply of humans that become more wise, bored, etc with infinite life.

Plus infinite life seems a near super power. Would they just hand it to nobodies? Seems like at that point they could produce a special few that live forever while the rest of the plebs have a largely normal life.

And heck, to extend your idea further; if it is equally difficult than perhaps you could do both, not one or the other. So make many mortals and a select few chosen royalty bloodlines that live forever. You get a population you can predictably control and forever royalty.

This leaves out an important piece of information - Curry used his home IP in an attempt to gain control of an attackers wallet but the wallet had already been emptied by another party.

Curry didn't actually do anything wrong - he was acting as a security researcher. However it was sufficient for him to be legally Subpeona'd before a New York Grand Jury and TSA used that Subpeona as part of the detainment criteria.

I never knew there was such an industry surrounding IVF until researching it. It's wild how hush hush and not talked about it is while simultaneously common enough there's a whole medical tourism industry for it. You can have prescriptions sent to you in advance, get picked up by a driver at the airport and stay at an affiliated beach resort. They'll deliver prescriptions to your room so you don't need to go to pharmacy in a foreign country. Hell, some providers even include a working SIM card in the package.

I think you're underestimating the area you need to search. See the wiki page[1]. There's so much space to look near, you need a much better guess before you can send any probes. A 9k year orbit, that starts at 340 AU, and has a lot of uncertainty in all the parameters, just leaves too much volume to check naively. And that doesn't even get into the fact that there's not enough light out there to feasibly find probes from their reflections.

Category theory has been extremely influential in computer science, primarily because a (maybe the) prototypical idealised programming language (the simply typed lambda-calculus) is at the same time, a logic and a convenient syntax for cartesian closed categories (= basically the nicest, most well-behaved kind of category (which is, in turn, a foundation of topoi, a generalisation of the essence of all logics)).

The trias gives extreme scope for technology transfer between mathematics, logic and programming.
I know it's funny and a whole trope to say that, but in my experience they're not. On the whole, they do their job just as well as anything else. After all, most of your name-brand stuff is coming from the same types of factories in China anyways.

And if the product is bad, people leave negative reviews, and it's easy to filter for those. Just like you should with any product you're considering purchasing.

Now granted I'm not buying hoverboards or anything that actually has serious potential for injury/fire. But for everyday things, it generally seems quite fine. And it's certainly not like name-brand stuff is magically free of defects or quality issues.

But as far as I understand, the understanding of genetics is changing. Meaning there are no simple flags to set, that will enable or disable certain diseases or traits. It is way more interconnected, so your custom ordered amazon baby might have to wait a little bit longer.
I should probably know this too, but I'll speculate wildly instead.

MAC is Layer 2, IP address is Layer 3. One way or another, the packet destined for the person you're spoofing will end up at your computer and work its way through the layers. From there, if it's a TCP/IP packet, I think it'll get filtered out at Layer 4 (transport) because your computer wasn't one of the parties that initiated the TCP connection (the sequence numbers won't line up, etc).

Packets being broadcast to multiple machines is common enough in various network setups, it's up to the individual machine to decide whether to process or drop the packet.

The study you linked shows that fatty acid oxidation accelerates cardiac hypertrophy.

The study linked above shows that fatty acid oxidation results in apparent hyperplastic and hypertrophic growth of the myocardium.

There are some significant differences between the observations in both studies, though, so they're not directly comparable. I wouldn't say they contradict each other though.

The two studies also reduced fatty acid oxidation very differently: One via microbiome manipulation and the other via genetic manipulation. Both routes will have side effects well beyond this singular measure, so they can't be compared directly.

Regardless, neither study is meant to indicate a viable medical procedure. The researchers are teasing out mechanisms that might be harnessed in the future to do something more useful.
Wow. This passes the uncanny valley look.

I watched this debate a couple of weeks ago and Coleman won every round.

I was surprised that Jamelle Bouie agreed to debate him, since anyone who has paid any attention to Coleman Hughes knows that he is a world-class thinker and debater. Coleman is one of the sharpest public intellectuals alive.

Jamelle must have known he was going up as a sacrificial lamb, especially since Jamelle had to argue in favor of racial discrimination. I mean, sheesh.
A tree is 'mostly dead', the inside doesn't do much, the outside is where all the action is and grafts are usually done with very young material so there will be plenty of support by the time it gets larger and heavier. The proportion of 'living:dead' material is much more amendable to grafting too. And it tends to be done with budding branches rather than a whole tree, in fact I haven't been able to find any reference of someone cutting down a tree and putting it back together, especially one of this size, the structural challenge alone makes it something that I do not think will work, especially not in that location with the tree taking the brunt of the wind load through that gap.
> If Mr. Curry had known to assert his status and rights under the Privacy Protection Act, he would probably be entitled to damages from the agents who searched and seized his data.

Lawyers and only lawyers-- is there some kind of workable legislation that could require agents to inform citizens of their rights under the PPA before demanding access to the phone, something like Miranda rights but for interrogations?

It really sucks that this journalist can't get damages essentially because they forgot to do a null check right before the search.

For the TLDR:

Insider was a investment bank analyst dealing with mergers and acquisitions.

The insider was smart, used Signal to communicate, never bought a single companys stock and used a childhood friend to buy and sell for him.

It all went south when law enforcement got in contact with the friend, his friend lost his nerve and turned on the insider, recording their messages and conversations.

Sounds like he didn't vet/prep his friend enough.
I think the argument was there was no way to know which (if any) of the wigs were good quality because of their weird off-brand status as opposed to branded Raquel Welch, Jon Renau, etc. Of course many of the off brand wigs may be made in the same factory as the big names, but it is impossible to tell.

But I'm also that OP whom you replied to and I never once mentioned that gas prices have anything to do with the cost of operating the blockchain.

> Well, which is it? Is it so trivial that anyone can compete, or is it too costly to build it?

I think that's the wrong "either/or" framing in this case. It's not that building competing tech would be trivially cheap, but it's something around which Snap would not likely have a moat or any sort of competitive advantage. It's also in a business area that's pretty unrelated to their core offering.

I just reset all folder access perms to "no" and killed both Terminal and iTerm. Tested in Terminal, and it did protect the downloads, desktop, and photos library folders, but not any of the other ones in the home dir (pictures etc) or the Music lib.

Weirdly, iTerm did ask for permission when I cd'd to ~/Desktop, and I said no, but it was still able to cd and edit/view/delete anything inside; the only thing I can't do is ls. BUT in ~/Downloads, I can only mess with files created within iTerm, not pre-existing ones. At this point I double-checked iTerm still doesn't have access to either (or full disk access) in my sysprefs, restarted iTerm, and reproduced this.

So yes it still feels like Terminal is willingly complying while iTerm is not totally, or something is just broken. And even if both were actually enforced fully, the permissions carry over to anything you run in there, and they don't protect very many things to begin with. Like, it can delete my entire Music lib without permissions either way.

An interesting contrast is the later work of Xunzi (aka Hsun Tzu; not to be confused with Sun Tzu), which is a sort of synthesis of Taoism and Confucianism. He tempers the idealism of Laozi (Lao Tzu), finding "freedom from obsession" also in the perfection of the social contract.

A similar transformation occurred around the same time in the West, as the idealism of Cynicism was refined in Stoicism.

Lumen is really nice as long as you never hope to have >60fps and don't want open worlds.

The architecture of it is just fundamentally not compatible with the majority of AAA games, especially open world or esports ones.

It's not that Epic are stupid it's that they're "optimising" in all directions and it sometimes causes issues. -- marketing advertises features that are not fit for the purpose they're being marketed for. Lumen is excellent for small games that aren't so CPU heavy or alternatively for non-realtime renders such as scene generation VFX.

Unreal itself is extremely bound to single-core CPU performance, so the idea of adding extra weight to the main render thread (which is basically the only thread) is unconscionable and was a deeply unwise decision.

Speaking of ancient hieroglyphs, there is a long lineage of symbol-based languages and it is interesting to follow their ebb and flow over time: APL is one of the oldest languages, existing alongside contemporaries like COBOL. In the ancient mainframe era when everything was up for grabs and few things felt set in stone (including character encodings and the format of punch cards, and the sorts of keyboards used to punch those cards) APL was there trying to save punch card space (but not keyboard space, there were some huge APL-focused keyboards) by using a heavily math notation-influenced symbolic language.

Of course, as such things go, APL's appeal fell as the mainframe world settled on EBCDIC or ASCII (depending on if you were an IBM shop or not) as a "universal" character encoding and also as saving punch card space was less of a problem as other storage systems became more prominent.

Uiua seems a fun "emoji-native" take on "your grandmother's" APL. (BQN is generally cited as among the first "Unicode-native" in the APL family. Beyond the stack language changes as neither APL nor BQN are stack languages, Uiua swaps some niftier emoji-based choices for operators that feel fresher and less "ancient math hieroglyphics" and little bit more "texting your modern friend who in this case is a computer" hieroglyphics.)
