What kind of business-relevant change are you referring to here?

I don't think the compiler with the error messages makes a difference when the business is pivoting between features, when they ask to add a new field to various forms, to generate new reports or add new emails in various points of the work flow. Or change the emails from one point to another point. Or add password less. Or just switch the external provider of an API from an important flow because there is a better deal elsewhere.

I am not saying static typing does not provide speed or flexibility, but I just wanted to say that business-relevant change has more to do with features than code.
> How high does the debt have to grow before the country and government collapse?

The absolute amount doesn't necessarily matter, because if you own the bonds then you're paying the debt to yourself. Other factors are a) who owns them b) what the interest rate is c) what currency they're in.

The usual problem for smaller countries is when they owe debt in foreign currencies.

Also note that long term interest rates would be very high if the market thought there was a hyperinflation risk, and they aren't.

> Tether (issues usdt) is winning big right now because they mostly hold short term t bills.

Well, they claim to. Since Tether is officially sitting on a giant money printer, their best strategy is to do absolutely nothing but count their money. So insofar as they're doing anything else it suggests they're lying.
Cryptography Research patented quite a few DPA/SPA countermeasures, if there is a non obvious patent on Curve448 it will likely be one of those making it hard to make a non infringing, fast yet not vulnerable HW implementation... Given their business in licencing those countermeasure (https://www.rambus.com/security/dpa-countermeasures/licensed...), one can see their eagerness to get some curves in widely used standards as suspicious in that light.

I'm not really concerned but I also understand why one wouldn't implement anything Rambus related given their history of patent trolling...

Contributions to the body of knowledge is not and never ever been monopolized by any particular nation or civilization but if you read most modern textbooks you're forgiven to think that it was all started with Greek civilization and then nothing of significance happened until Renaissance movement in the 14th CE (conveniently skipping the contributions of the Roman (namely Rome and Byzantine) and Muslim empires (namely Rashidun, Umayyad, Abassid, Andalusian Spanish, Ottoman)). A popular Monty Python sketch of "What have the Roman's done to us" perfectly summarized this ridiculous sentiment.[1]

The fact that many contributions from other older civilizations for examples Indus Valley (Indian) where the original cuneiform alphabet was started and Phoenician (Arabic) where most of the modern alphabets (Latin, Greek, Arabic, Sanskrit) originated. The former Indus Valley script has not even been successfully deciphered yet until today (Nobel price in waiting for the ones who will deciphered them), perhaps they are some older proofs that are just waiting to be discovered upon the understanding of the Indus Valley scripts and languages.

But the nonsensical narrative of whom has the monopoly of contributions to knowledge will carry on until the end of time but the reality is that we are just standing on the shoulders of giants [2].

I'm going to guess that those engineers exist and they just don't work on skyscrapers... or they have software tools that make it easy... or they get paid by the hour and are fine with it.

I have no idea what kind of software engineering projects you work on, but perhaps you and I both work with a lot of people that would (should?!) never be allowed near the skyscraper-equivalent software.

I've thought about this problem a lot. Having a federated / distributed tracker but with some form of trust based, or opt-in curation would be amazing.

In order to maximize cash flows, Tether has an incentive to grow the wider crypto ecosystem. Matt Levine wrote an excellent explanation in one of his recent “Money Matters” newsletters.

After the BUSD debacle, it’s clear that onshore and regulated reserves for stablecoins are a huge risk for defi dapps built on top of them. US policy regarding USDC and other such US regulated stablecoins are at risk of change at any time. Since well designed defi dapps are not upgradeable, future policy risks must be considered when choosing which stablecoin to utilize. USDT’s offshore and opaque balance sheet is proven safer for defi dapps than US regulated stablecoins. I wish this weren’t the case, but it’s proven in practice.

Who's to say rapidly building something with an LLM isn't more exhilarating?

ChatGPT and Copilot definitely increase productivity by a non trivial margin and atleast in my experience, I never once thought "Oh I wish I had written that code by hand." In fact, I feel the opposite: LLMs take out the drudgery of much coding and allow you to focus on writing code for the difficult parts.

It's been done a few times, as listed here.

One not mentioned was someone in Southern California who got an old aircraft APU (probably a Solar T-62[1] or similar) and made an electric hybrid back in the 1980s. The APU charged the battery, and shut down when the battery was full. Worked OK, apparently.

The trouble with turbine engines is that, below bizjet size, they don't seem to get any cheaper. Not for lack of trying in the 1990s. NASA, Williams International, and Eclipse tried hard. There were a few prototype planes, but no commercial success. There are today what are called "very light jets", but this means 4-6 people and and a price around $2 million.

General aviation is still mostly piston-powered. There are tiny jet engines for R/C planes, but they have very short operating lives.

> It's essentially true that we (humans) cannot rely on varying our axioms indefinitely because we'd have to perform the incalculable search. I think what you're saying though is something like, the theory is already pretty interesting for low N, maybe we can eke it out.

No, the idea of incalculable simply means that it can’t be enumerated using one program. As humans we can write different programs and it’s fine.

Imagine code which exhaustively checks all math proofs. That code will have an axiomatic system built into it such as ZFC. This says that that code still can’t calculate busy beaver numbers at a point, because at a certain point ZFC is no longer enough. But if we had similar code with some ordinal stuff thrown in, maybe we could get a little farther. Etc.

Practically, undecidability and busy beaver numbers are both very, very untenable. I always had a philosophical objection to undecidability, it felt wrong that knowledge was limited in theory because of “this sentence is false” logical tricks. Practically, who cares if we can’t prove “this sentence is false”. (Turings undecidability argument is a halt program encoding of this sentence is false.)

I wanted a different more satisfying answer, and busy beaver numbers are that answer: math is unfathomably complicated, and we don’t have powerful enough axiomatic systems to understand even small computer programs yet.

But the gap around the door might only be millimeters wide, but it is 30cm or more long.

It is "both* dimensions that must be a long way below the wavelength to keep microwaves in.

Instead the door seal uses a technique called a quarter wave choke. It relies on reflecting back any microwaves wanting to escape, and by making incoming and reflected waves perfectly cancel, no power is transmitted.

As OP said, even a small amount of soup dripped onto the seal and your microwaves will all start escaping.

> Where's the evidence that OpenAI pirated all the content they trained models on and didn't access it normally just like everyone else? It's quite the allegation that OpenAI torrented `all-media-archive.xz` to train their model.

This shows a fundamental lack of understanding of copyright law on your part. Getting a PDF of The Shining by googling/ web scraping, versus getting a PDF of it by torrenting, does not make obtaining the PDF any more legal. Publicly-accessible != legal to download.

Only the grant of permission by the copyright owner or a licensed distributor(when talking about digital copies) gives you the right to obtain a copy.

There is substantial evidence (which OpenAI freely admits to) that they downloaded copies of copyrighted works without permission by the copyright holders. That makes it copyright infringement.

> Did the steam engine progress humanity? Did the internet progress humanity?

Not in the least bit.

Caveman hit caveman with stick progressing to caveman hit caveman with nuke is not a progression of humanity. Trains and the internet did not make humans any better than before, they just consolidated power into certain groups.

Mistaking technological progress with social or certainly evolutionary progress is why people roll their eyes at techbros.

"Cavemen stop hitting each other" is progressing humanity, and that won't be a result of technology.

> You are sorely mistaken if you think that's all that people are throwing billions of dollars behind.

I know exactly what I'm talking about, and that is exactly what ML is. And if your only argument is, "surely people wouldn't sink millions of dollars into something unless it was revolutionary!" you've never dealt with corporate software licensing and development.

People pay Splunk billions of dollars to run regex on their logs that they could write themselves.

People pay billions of dollars for (F)OSS just to have proserv support contracts they never use.

Billions of dollars are wasted every day across the world for B2B cruft.

ML is cool and all, but it's just code. Code running on a computer. Code you can run on your home pc. It's not magic, or inscrutable, or greater than the sum of its parts. Data go in, data come out, same as every other program.

Notably, that field is powerful enough that microwave doors need to be about an inch thick. The rest of the inch is just empty space and a sheet of plastic to stop you putting your fingers into the evanescent field.

Unfortunately there were a few microwaves sold recently in Europe which forgot that design element, and if you pointed at food while cooking it, you would cook your fingers too.
Check out if a university near you has a startup incubator / entrepreneurship program. They often have events, probably socialized most on their Instagram account. From expert talks, to hackathons - go to the next event. While there, tell the organizer what type of community you’re looking for, and ask if there is a group chat.

For example, I’m in a city, and there are at least 2 or 3 very active WhatsApp groups - a mix of tech devs, creative entrepreneurs (one of those groups has 800+ members). Every day - there are 2-3 events posted, talks, seminars, workshops, code jams, pitch workshops, digital marketing how-tos.

Idea: Co--working spaces often have a formal or informal group chat (often WhatsApp). You could take a tour and ask around.

Business incubators - Business incubators, often have a Slack channel (with channels like #dev, #design, #3d-printing). They often have a networking site where you can book free office hours with vetted experts / founders / engineers / executives / angel investors). The one I participate in has a Slack group containing 2,800 creative entrepreneurs, founders, investors, etc. At the co-working space, they host events, social mixers, etc. You’ll aways find some interesting people there. Find the group chat, get on it. Eventually you’ll get “dragged” into an interesting social group of startup / entrepreneurship / growth minded people. I jokingly say dragged, but what I mean is - if you go to an interesting talk on CNC routers, you’ll likely meet someone interesting there, they’ll tell you about a cool upcoming event, you book it - over time, you’re just spending more time per week with interesting people.

I know you just asked about WhatsApp groups, but I wanted to just share some of what I’ve learned, within 1 year of moving to a new city.
Echoing: doing some "deep" troubleshooting of an issue on my Chromebook (since like 2006 + crouton/crostini), I read about their newer security/architecture for Linux apps running in chrome.

https://chromeos.dev/en/linux/linux-on-chromeos-faq#why-run-...

...see also the linked: "security" and then "glossary" to get a feel for the component complexity.

It is pretty astounding, and astoundingly complicated, but mostly transparent as to how the host + guest integrate.

Yeah, you can run "Inkscape" and the GUI just "shows right up" on the chromebook... but there's like 18 layers of security mitigations and complexity with virtualized device drivers and audited communication channels that are all (nearly) completely invisible to make it look like "it's just running /usr/bin/inkscape on the same machine, what's so hard about that?"
...Yeah, that is more like it.
