Nice, "food insecurity", sounds like a weasel wording of "definitely have food, hence the obesity epidemic, but not securely".

The USSR was very efficient at resource allocation. Those who "needed" the resources the most got it. Of the resources that existed, that is.

Socialists would love this system to return, as, in their narcissism, they consider it inevitable that they'll be chosen among those who "need" it.

I personally think the more appropriate request would be to first research instead of asking him to answer your question, and if incomplete, secondly to kindly show interest in him, at some further point, discussing this more in a public way when he feels ready to do so.

Obv he doesn't seem to mind the question. Just my approach.
"Be seeing you" remains a great way to say goodbye. Every now and then, somebody catches it.
I have friends who live in Myanmar and can confirm the ground situation was a lot worse. When all your see are hate speech posts ( about beheading or at best driving away these low lives), it normalizes the hate and dehumanize the victims. History was full of atrocities like this . Free speech is great to have . But violence propaganda is a real problem. You see some of that in America too.

Edit : to give people who don’t bother to read the article some idea, many villages were burned down and before that happened , women got raped and killed , the entire village were looted and then killed and then they burned down the villages. The goal was to create fear so that the victims would have no choice but flee their own country. It worked .
What on earth are you talking about. Metas models are the foundations for almost all the popular open source LLMs.
Yes, slow down and observe the world is the heightened human experience that we have left behind as we have plundered into an algorithmically run society fueled on attention engagement.
Agree it's not exactly the same, but it's more similar than it seems on the surface. By and large, you don't get to make the decision for yourself wrt drugs. Doctors make recommendations. So, Doctors can kill others (lots and lots of them per doctor) by recommending/prescribing drugs that they can't fully explain.

It is what it is. At some point with enough variables we lose the ability to explain something in a mechanistic fashion that a human can fit in their head.

The nice thing about LLMs compared to drugs - an LLM is actually fully explainable. The explanation is just very long and boring. "and so we calculate this number and then that number, then adjust these numbers, and then calculate that thing and blah blah blah" for 6000 years.
Cybernetics did eventually become a hot fashion in the USSR. There is a good history of this, Slava Gerovitch's From Newspeak to Cyberspeak: A History of Soviet Cybernetics (2002).
> I don't have children but I'm happy to pay taxes that support public schools because I reap the benefits of an educated populace.

This is actually a pretty apt comparison, since the original article of the thread was about the dysfunction of the Green Line Extension. Suppose you lived in Baltimore, where zero students passed grade-level math proficiency in 40% of public schools, and yet the school system CEO is paid half a million dollars a year. Would you be as keen on paying those taxes? After all, you really aren't getting the benefits of an educated populace in that case.

If the T cost a lot of money and provided great service, we wouldn't be having this discussion. It's the fact that it costs a lot of money and is still bad, and the proposed solution is yet more public funding for it, which is generating the discussion.

The Thirty-Meter Telescope is absolutely progress over the superstitions of a defunct agrarian society.

In my opinion, cultures that pursue deeper learning and understanding of the physical world are superior to those which do not. I think perspectives other than this are harmful to humanity.

“Culture” should not be a veto over human progress and the ability to have your superstitions respected by others or even your culture survive is not a human right.

I am not arguing about what is the safest thing. A free society should be free to make themselves unsafe if they so wish.

If a free society is not capable of relinquishing their freedom, then are they truly free?
Employers letting their recently brought back to office remote employees go home early to try to beat transit issues caused by extreme weather events that are becoming more common due to global warming caused by everyone commuting to office every day burning energy and creating pollution.

It took a global pandemic to spur us to switch to a more modern and as it happens environmentally friendly way of working, which could even help us alleviate housing issues by allowing more people to disperse around the country, help local economies in more rural places, but no, let’s go back to doing things exactly how we did before.

Everything is fine.
Can't one value both social media and privacy? I don't think we need to be very one-dimensional about this - "either privacy or Facebook".

You know, ultimately, you can choose to not share that much with Facebook. There are tools for privacy that don't let Facebook get too much from you. The easiest one is clearing cookies automatically in a browser to disrupt long-term tracking. Beyond that, there are VPNs and burner phone numbers. I feel like people are not as powerless against Facebook as you might mean to say, and it's not that hard to care about privacy and value Facebook.

And the algorithm that maximizes engagement is the algorithm that gives the user exactly the content he most wants to engage with. In other words, with iteration, it will converge on an algorithm whose output is entirely driven by the user, not the developer. In this way it is basically a dumb pipe just like a phone that lets the user say exactly what he wants when he wants.
This is one of many reasons why the A320 is superior to the the 737 and it is no contest, the 737 remains because Boeing can make it very cheap, sell it at a discount, and airliners do not care about the passenger experience.

There’s some subtlety here between the terms platform and app. For example, Amazon is a single platform (unified login and billing), which gives it many of the advantages of the super app. But Amazon doesn’t have a super app. They have separate apps for shopping, Kindle, Prime Video, Alexa, and etc.

I’ve never used WeChat but I wonder the value prop of having a single app which has its own navigation inside, as opposed to splitting the app into separate apps for each verticals and having that navigation and context switching happen at the phone OS level.

With Elon Musk’s idea of providing a super app, I wonder if he truly means a singular app or if he just wants to build a company with many services in the style of Google, Apple, Amazon, etc. The term super app sounds cool but when you think it through he’s just vaguely saying he wants to make Twitter expand to other verticals. The question is, which verticals? And what competitive advantage does he have over existing tech companies? (who by the way are already under scrutiny for possibly being monopolies)
Every few years you hear about a kid dying playing baseball (the last major league death was almost a century ago despite the ball flying around a lot faster and hundreds of thousands of games are played by people of all ages every year).

You mean aside from the DART (Double Asteroid Redirection Test) mission already launched, tested, and deemed a success?

As a part of NASA’s overall planetary defense strategy, DART’s impact with the asteroid Dimorphos demonstrates a viable mitigation technique for protecting the planet from an Earth-bound asteroid or comet, if one were discovered.

> plaintext DNS is avoided in order to prevent a MITM on the ClientHelloInner key.

Is MiTM possible unless the attacker is in possession of a sufficiently advanced quantum computer? What's published as HTTPS/SVCB record is the public part of the key. Afaik, DNSSEC isn't even a requirement for zones publishing HTTPS/SVCB ECH records?

> Doing so prevents ISPs and governments from analyzing your traffic.

Don't think traffic analysis is thwarted. ECH plugs inspection of the only plaintext bits in TLS, which is not only abused by censors, but also by various 'well-meaning' middleware that made bringing upgrades to TLSv1.3 a nightmare.

> If we take away this last resort from governments...

You mention GFW, and we got GFW without ECH. Governments will government, nothing will stop them. That shouldn't stop us from shoring up our side of the equation. Because by that logic, Meta shouldn't e2ee WhatsApp or Browsers shouldn't OCSP / CRL. In fact, not having those sound scary to me; because governments aren't the only power hungry actor around. It wasn't long ago Meta was caught spying on the users of its data saver VPN (Onavo) for half a decade, if not more.
I feel like this is one of those comments that thinks they add substance or discussion but doesn't.

Harsh, but probably not wrong.

This is closer to "good old fashioned AI" than a learning system. The process is

* Observe situation

* (Miracle happens)

* Simple description of situation pops out

* Crunch a bit on the simple description to get answer.

That's very 1980s, with simple English substituted for predicate calculus expressed as S-expressions. The (miracle happens) step is still a problem. Image interpretation has advanced a lot, but not enough.

When you look at videos of Tesla's vision system at work, it regularly fails to recognize cars and people until they're very close. Waymo seems over-sensored, but that's needed to reliably map the environment.

"Driving like people" is basically minor tweaks on the hard problem, "driving without hitting stuff".
DEC's Alpha was doomed at release, because the operating systems licensed with it were a minimum of $30k just to get the install CD (for VMS or OSF/1 "Unix").

There must have been desperation among the design team, as 3rd party Alpha motherboards slowly began to appear that ran basic Linux.

However, Alpha was a glutton for power. DEC then designed the StrongARM, which amazingly worked out far better for low power applications.

I think that I can hear DEC designers screaming inside Qualcomm.

Yes, but if you have two intermittent sources (such as solar and wind) instead of just one you don't need as much storage for a given level of reliability, and you aren't cycling your batteries as frequently so they will last longer.

In parts of Texas they have enough wind at night that consumers get free electricity at night, which is great for EV charging.

Well someone has to have free speech since someone has to make the censorship decisions. It can be:

1. The government

2. Internet company executives

3. Everyone

Sounds like you don't like 3. So please explain why only the government or internet company execs should have freedom of speech.
>Facebook might give everyone the same text box to write posts or upload content, but they need to answer for HOW and WHY they recommend certain content over other types of content.

It seems that Facebook's "crime" is not censoring people enough and not not their reccomendation algorithm was configured to boost an opinion the article's author did not agree with. Since the problem is with the contents I see it as relating to free speech.

>Even in the US, where freedom of speech is protected in the Amendments to the Consitution

While the constitution makes it hard to write laws that limit speech the US does not have full freedom of speech.
True, but I imagine it's mostly carried on/off busses or in/out of a building entrance, and not much farther.

It’s fair though, to say that in safety critical situations where human lives are at stake…

> can reduce the degree to which they occur significantly

May not be good enough, unless you can quantify the degree to which they happen.

1/10? 1/1000? 1/1000000? More in situations like fog or rain? Perfectly safe in normal conditions?

The problem here isnt hallucinations, correct. All systems are unsafe to some degree.

The problem is that the degree to which it is a problem is (afaik) quite difficult to quantify.

It’s not ok, if you just vaguely wave your hand and say it doesn’t happen that much. Or you can mitigate it to some degree by doing such and such. How much?

You have to actually be able to articulate the degree of risk involved.

There is a risk. Fact.

Is it acceptable? That’s the question, and no one seems to be able really answer it clearly.
Though as you may be aware, the 3rd and 5th wards are not so well protected. Low-lying parts of highways are often flooded out, especially during hurricanes.
Assuming the article is written in good faith it clearly asserts the reasons are unknown but:

Do you mean doors that open outwards? The weight/pressure of floodwater outside the door would seal it shut from the outside, whereas it would eventually break open a door that opens inwards, right? Is it the violence of the breakin itself that's so dangerous with inward-opening doors?

When you think about it, the only thing that's weird about this hypothetical conversation is the context of it being about (purported) photographs.

We expect images that look like photographs — at least when taken by amateurs — to be the result of a documentary process, rather than an artistic one. They might be slightly filtered or airbrushed, but they won't be put together from whole cloth.

But amateur photography is actually the outlier, in the history of "capturing memories"!

If you imagine yourself before the invention of photography, describing your vacation to an illustrator you're commissioning to create a some woodblock-print artwork for a set of christmas cards you're having made up, the conversation you've laid out here is exactly how things would go. They'd ask you to recount what you saw, do a sketch, and then you'd give feedback and iterate together with them, to get a final visual down that reflects things the way you remember them, rather than the way they were, per se.

My claim is basically that someone sneezing doesn't mean that they have the cold. And even if they did have a cold, the sneeze could be caused by something else.

Not once did I say or suggest climate change is not real, or could not cause this extreme weather event. I can't make it any simpler for you.
The point here is that, in Go, "what a Color type is" isn't something that can be enforced by the compiler. And more specifically, Go doesn't allow you to define reliable enums.
If the Obscura network started getting DDoSed, I'm sure Obscura would also become quite slow.

The infosec hobbyist in me believes the many-months-long massive DDoS attack against tor infrastructure was exploiting a vulnerability in tor to perform (timing attacks, or related traffic correlation attacks) against and unmask hidden services or hidden service users, or maybe even exit node users. How realistic is this to someone that understands the tor network more in-depth than I do?

Because it's so noisy and expensive, I can't believe they'd keep it up this long if it wasn't extremely effective, whatever the purpose and actor.

Out of 10 possible errors a compiler can catch 0, 1, 2, 3, etc. up to 10.

You can take locks on all objects before you write. Most systems don’t do that.

Usually there are multiple writes to complete a business process. In each step stale data is read to create a write request similar to how you place your order with the wait staff at the restaurant. The wait staff will orchestrate your request. First the chef prepares your meal according to the order ticket. Second the wait staff delivers your meal based on the chef’s internal work order. Lastly they take your payment based on the original order ticket. Notice there are at least three microtransactions based on stale data. No one is holding locks until the diner finishes eating.
