Most of the cost of raising a child is the things you do to make sure they end up living a life like you did: college and neighborhood.
The scheme above handles the case where nodes pose as many in order to extract more fees and reduce their competition, but now it seems like you are thinking about absolute censorship.

Otherwise, if there are no extra hops, then what is the attack? A single router (posing as many) gets transactions into blocks as fast as anyone else?

As soon as he starts Sybilling that data to earn more fees or censoring it, every recourse I mentioned (not just may last comment) makes it unsustainable and unprofitable comparatively - opening the door for others to take his spot.

If your point the whole time was a censorship operation through Sybilling, the user can identify that quickly AND honest nodes will seek out those users. I addressed it earlier - the more extreme the censorship, the greater the incentives for other nodes to remedy it themselves.
For all the faults of western democracies, the Chinese Communist Party is far worse. That’s not anti-China propaganda.

You comment on this issue a surprising amount, and clearly feel strongly about the US’ views on China. I’d be curious as to exactly how you feel China is being judged unfairly.
Have you worked at an enterprise? Everything is about money.

Don't forget the scale at which these operate. $1000 extra in a GPU adds up quickly when you buy a thousand of them.

Perhaps in big tech it's different but in our huge multinational anything IT is seen as a cost center only and has to be on the cheap. Which a real focus on short term savings because who knows if this year's SVP will still be in that seat next year.

Nobody ever told me "let's take the most expensive option because it's the best in the long run" :(
May be they should put an Update Screen saying, a Patent Company "$Name" is charging us $7 for this feature.
I also had an XR. Put 200 miles on it with a number of close calls then a big fall. It was starting up the street in front of my old place which has a decent incline. Thing just stopped and I went into the concrete.

I raced ski team in high school and have done a lot of risk sports stuff. But I had seen enough videos and read enough stories before I bought the board. So I was padded up at knees, elbows and helmet when it happened.

I still took a major blow to the shoulder that I had to get X-rays for and sustained surface injuries that still bears scars. I also have an ankle injury from a run-off save prior from a nose dive prior to that fall.

I decided then that I was selling the board because I had too much important stuff that summer to look forward to, and that I was not likely to get to enjoy it if I kept using that product.

Like others in this thread, I contacted the company about the nosedive, explaining my injury and concern that the product could not be ridden safely. I asked if they would please consider taking the product back.

They ignored my injury, and information provided about the fall. Instead they made a point it highlight the high resale value of the product and that I should do that.

The company has a class action suit in some status of pending. I have read more than enough about this company’s behavior since to be watching and waiting for what seems inevitable. I am expecting my own exchange may make it into discovery.
It's because if they get wet at all they are destroyed.
So if you make patent licenses illegal, how are the small companies that build a better widget for a larger device - cars, computers, phones ever suppose to make money?

How is the chip designer going to make money if they can’t license their designs to companies that actually make products?

3 years is barely enough time to get hardware to market. It took Panic 10 years to get the Playdate to market.

This was a dead giveaway. The first 99 episodes are just screening candidates.

> We do not use any integrated circuits, there is no hiding complexity.

Call me nit-picking but it's not a great idea to "not hide complexity". Largish designs and up are all about managing complexity. It doesn't help you to try and keep everything flat in front of you - whether in schematic or hardware form. The advance made with VLSI design was to use hierachical abstraction as much as possible to keep each level of the design clear and at least somewhat in control. This is about diagrams, consistent logic design families and signals, abstractions solid enough that they can be simulated, repeatedly encapsulated, composed - and so understood and kept in mind by the human designer.

And in this case they probably do. At least the PCB seems hierarchical. But that earlier wording is alarming.
I remember spending days at a time in Audacity and have no crash (talking over a decade). Now everytime I use it I find a new way to crash it and it didn't evolve that much (compared to things like Ardour that went really far in the last decade including in stability).

Changesets seem like a UX nightmare. While I understand the motivation, the complexity of version control today is mind boggling.

We have a working copy, index, commits, branches, remotes, pull requests - all of these come into play when proposing even the simplest change to an open source repo today. The idea that adding yet another concept to the pile will make things better is something I can't agree with.

Will it enable more capabilities? Yes. Adding features generally does that.

Aside from the "it's already complex enough" argument, there's also the fact that 90% of changes I've seen in my daily use of git don't require this feature. This means the feature will be misunderstood, misused and often not used when actually needed.
Despite a several decades long decline in total fertility rate, most demographic models I have seen assume that lifetime fertility will magically bounce back to replacement level.

Underpants gnomes models. Bounce-back could happen, but there is no understanding in governments of why the decline is occurring, nor what it takes to reverse it,* so it is unlikely.

* Exhorting people to return to traditional family values, as the new PM of Italy does, is likely to crash fertility faster.

I think you are misunderstanding just a bit. You can certainly fine-tune/train LLAMA for a specific use case. Just grab LLAMA 7B and start training, that will fit on plenty of devices and you can even quantize the weights and make it run faster (and on even smaller devices).

What you cannot do is use LLAMA outputs to train your ChatGPT weights.

Well I think I have some experience to talk about Japan. Not so much about Korea.

My experience is that English in Japan isn’t really spoken outside of big tech firms and even there the quality isn’t great.

I have tried organizing an event on the same topic in Japanese and in English, almost no one showed up in English but it was full in Japanese.

They have their own alternatives to some services and stack overflow, qiita.

The thing is that they don’t really need to speak English and for the cases they need English they bite a foreigner.

That would be really fun for sound sculpting but this is a pretty small part of composition. Also one thing to remember is that anytime you want to optimize a workflow you want to reduce the number and amplitude of physical movements. Which is a big limitation of any XR tools for now that are nowhere as precise, high velocity and usable for long stretch of time than kb/mouse/screen/controllers. I really see hybrid approaches winning here instead of full blown replacement of current tools.
Stating something is far worse as if it is objective fact is propaganda.
> UX would probably be more difficult though. The current workflow of "submit branch, make PR, do changes on same branch, merge latest version through web interface" is a big part of the ease of the Github UX.

That was my first thought, too. Though perhaps a simple solution could be having GitHub, on a push, check for a new branch that matches an existing branch from a PR plus “-v2” (or “-v3”, etc.) and automatically consider that a new changeset in the PR.

Or perhaps even easier is once you’ve “released” your changeset in the GitHub ui, any pushes to the branch implicitly duplicate it and put it into a new v2 branch instead. That would be a decent ui from the pushers point of view, though there’s an and asymmetry between what you push and what ends up in the repo that I’m not sure I like.
That doesn’t solve the theft problem.

As a programmer, it's my experience that the computer itself usually works correctly. It's almost never a hardware bug.

But software.... software gets things wrong all the time and the computer hardware just blindly does what the software told it to.

How does that work? I'm not a lawyer. I'm a lazy programmer.

So, does the defense get to subpoena the logs, and depose a programmer to explain why some random request returned a 502?

Does the defense get, like, red team access?

Although I'm a lazy programmer, I do think a lot about failure modes. If my freedom is on the line, I can probably think up a few (orders of magnitude) test cases. Happy to provide a shell script or python or golang binary to check. Heck, if it comes down to it I'll provide a stack of fortran cards. Do I get to see the source? That "few" is probably going to move a decimal place or 5.

I get volume is not reasonable in the eyes of the court. Scale is how you(I) find problems, but whatever. Gimmie source, gimme access, I doubt I could beat Knuth, but with my freedom on the line I could give him a run for his money.

How do CVE's count? If I find evidence of log4j do I auto win?

This makes me think of the Jepsen tire fire talk. The system probably mostly right. But there's no way it's correct. What's a "fair" level of access to prove that?
"Wasn't it William the Conqueror who made French the language of the English court? That's how English has quite some French influence too or so I've heard."

Right, from 1066 to about 1485 with the end of the Plantagenet kings: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/House_of_Plantagenet.

During much of this time French was the official language of the English Royal Court and government business. Thousands of French words entered the earlier English (Anglo Saxon—based) language during this time.

"Nor will the English want to speak much of the quite German blood influence of the Royals and how the English behaved at the start of WWII. It's just all so mixed up through"

Don't get me started on that. Those incestuous English/European monarchies caused untold harm to the world. The problems go back before WWII to much earlier than even WWI. Out of embarrassment and under threat of loss of the monarchy the British Royal family changed its name from the German Saxe-Coburg to Windsor in 1917. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/from-the-archive-blog/20...

> In 1989 the U.S. software industry group, ADAPSO, concluded in a report on Japanese software that TRON had “strong undertones of nationalism and will have the practical effect of impeding foreign penetration of the Japanese market.”

This is revealing and a highly important point. A "universal" IT standard like TRON can only come from an entity that has essentially governmental authority over digital technology. It can't come from just a smartphone company or software company, because competitors and other companies have no incentive to comply.

It's a bit of a conundrum, because a universal open standard could be really nice for the average hacker, but its practical existence implies an entity that has near total dominion over tech standards. I.e. some entity that could force Apple and Google to implement the standard for all their products.
Yes, agreed on the first part, and I'm not surprised by the second.

Well I hoped you wouldn't continue in this thread because I laid out a secure interactive proof scheme that DOES offer statistical proof that a node behaves and performs well, and that it is not likely a Sybil.

If you are that concerned with reputation, you can ask for token lock-ups - further diminishing the ability of many identities appearing distinct.

But the greater point is that these are not Sybils, because they do not gain power over the system. If your counter-point to that is that users will waste money then clearly this attack is not sustainable - some node can take that revenue by saving users' money.

And if your concern is so extreme that a whole network around a user is locked down, then I can make a similarly unusual case that physical transmission of data is incentivized - because it is.

Of course recovering from extreme cases is not user-friendly - but the point is that you can recover and these states of total control are not sustainable; it would take a lot of work to even get into one of these states and it wouldn't even offer the attacker an ability to hold it.

So in practice it is unlikely to happen. The same way it's unlikely you will keep buying bread from the guy that charges twice the market rate.
This is one of those posts that makes me ask "why should I read this?".

Can people who literally "see" clear mental images look at a blank piece of paper, imagine an image, and then just trace it out? I have never seen anyone do this, but based on the way mental imagery is described online by people who claim other people are aphantasiac, I don't understand why it's not a very common ability.
Arguably that should be even easier to make. Find a good artist who's willing to take a bit of a gamble, program some excuse gameplay, usually some sort of puzzle game, and you're pretty much set. If your audience knows what they're there for, really the game is just a vehicle for the eye candy.
Well it can be “mandated” all it wants to, it has history of not happening. It wasn’t a “mistake” that the Florida governor (I live in Orlando) went out of its way to punish a corporation because it disagreed with a law.

Nor is it a “mistake” that the government seizes people’s property through civil forfeiture without a trial or that the government is actively fighting the will of the majority of the population.

Again, Google doesn’t have the power to do anything but serve ads. The government has the court system, a police department with military weapons, etc.
IOW, something like stackable PRs.

It does happen to Hardware. Here are two older examples:

“The Intel Pentium series of CPUs had two well-known bugs discovered after it was brought to market, the FDIV bug affecting floating point division which resulted in a recall in 1994, and the F00F bug discovered in 1997 which causes the processor to stop operating until rebooted.”

They've been doing a pretty good job of making caricatures of themselves since 2016. My memory stretches back far enough to videos of Trump rallies where people screamed "keep out those dirty beaners!!" etc at mention of "the wall". I remember "taco trucks on every corner". I remember the notion that Mexico is "sending" people.

I remember the Muslim Ban, the hate against Syrian refugees, the popularity of Trump among people who believe in the "great replacement" theory. I remember family separation, and supposedly God-fearing "conservatives" proudly saying that the suffering of those children were the parents fault for trying to flee ravaged societies and give their kids a better life.

Wanting to crack down harder on illegal immigration is a valid political position and a reasonable goal. But that wasn't all what that shit was about. I don't know if you've truly fooled yourself, but you're not fooling me. I'm never forgetting, and I'm never forgiving.

Well, to each their own I guess, I read their response and thought it gave an excellent point-by-point analysis.

At a higher level, I didn't read manxman posts as saying Japan is some sort of tech hellscape, or that their previous high-flying tech companies are all dead, but I think it's pretty easy to argue that innovation in Japan has seriously stagnated over the past 2 decades. I left another comment where I listed tons of Japanese tech I used to have in my (US) house - now I have almost none.

Regarding Toyota, I strongly disagree with "unlike ibm they make a product that is well regarded and not in any danger of being supplanted". I had a Toyota which I loved (it was crazy reliable) for nearly 2 decades that I replaced about 7 years ago - with an EV, and have since bought another EV. I just went to Toyota's website and they only offer a single all-electric EV, the "bZ4X", which I honestly have never heard of. You say it's as easy as "drop in a bigger battery and call it a day" - well, why haven't they then? Toyota is going to get killed in the EV market, which in not too long will be the entire auto market.
