As botanical footnote: All this trees called lapachos are in the Bignoniaceae family. Lapachos have huge ornamental value and hold the equivalent place as the cherry trees in the northern hemisphere. They are cultured in all the big cities that have the correct climate; by their fantastic bloom in bright yellow, pink or pure white and their role as a cultural symbol.

This means that some lapacho wood can have legal origins also
I don't know how it was in general, but for example in The Count of Monte Cristo I think the Count and his guests primarily consumed hashish in food, rather than by smoking. It's portrayed as exotic and foreign and borderline magical. So it's possible that there were people using it in Europe for centuries, but not a lot of them, and maybe not enough of them for it to appear in whatever secular contemporary art is preserved from the 17th century.

yea i knkow... i struggled to describe the feelings i had about japan, this is the best i had lol. open to suggestions.

but primarily thinking of:

- nikkei/real estate not past its dotcom peak

- telecoms/internet infra generally 1 generation behind most other developed countries

- anecdotally seemingly very hostile/unstable politics especially to women and immigrants

- i vaguely remember some revisionist history around their ww2 atrocities?
I doubt any F100 would go all-in on new vendor like Oxide for anything at first. I bet they could spend millions on a a few racks as a trial and have some groups work with it. A couple years down the line maybe they start expanding usage if they like it.

Of course that framing itself is bad - F100 companies aren't usually quite that monolithic. By the time they get that big there's a heterogeneous set of processes, equipment, systems, etc. Some parts of the company may use Oxide right away because they see it as a solution, and others may keep using the IBM mainframes, and other still will keep using racks/blade servers from Dell for eternity.

Then I suggest you move somewhere in the south of Europe like Italy, Greece, or the Balkans, get a job and rent there, interact with the government bureaucracy and make use of public services, just to get a perspective on what a sad hopeless economic situation and badly managed government that doesn't do anything for you, actually looks like.

Being anti-immigration probably contributed a lot towards this.
Oh, they believe it.

(1) AGI is arguably already here. "Generality" and being extremely dangerous don't require an AGI to have better analogs to every single human skill anymore than aliens do. A space-faring usurper can evaporate Earthlings while being shitty at chess and badminton. Oh, and these AIs are getting better daily, across many modalities.

(2) Systems like this already exist. They can be induced rather than emergent.

(3) It doesn't need malice, just indifference. The HGIs (all of us) are great examples of that careless destruction.

(4) Exponentials are a nice, gentle climbs. Until they aren't. I have zero confidence in a single company, let alone across humanity, to foresee the consequences of every future dynamic, autoregressive, P2P interactive, multimodal AI.

(5) Foomers expect a brief asymmetric advantage of one AGI over other AGIs. This small advantage gets exponentially magnified into singular hegemony. A power monopoly that's intractable to break.

(6) Goes naturally with (1), I suppose.

Note: I agree with you about foomers. They're nuts. But their arguments are more subtle than folk give them credit for. But my reasons for thinking so would make a long comment even longer.

While I am not an expert, the most common cited cause for the Japanese stagnation is the late '80s Japanese asset bubble, possibly worsened by the '85 Plaza Accords where US significantly devalued its currency USD, via currency market manipulation.

From a wider perspective, individuals and countries alike are subject to economic forces that sometimes are beyond their control. The American cultural habit of attributing, without rest, ill fate to moral failing, lacks in nuance. Possibly a byproduct of the historically unique wealth of opportunity bestowed onto the post-war generation.

I would be more scared by AI used for invigilation. it's not possible to invigilate everyone by human team, but scaling ai to read and classify all your messages you send to the internet? with military budget I would argue is in plausable area.

I'm not saying doing it is worth the effort, but maybe on lower scale for lower priority targets that you would not want to waste resources, maybe?
How would you fix it without violating the form factor?

I think that differing device resolutions and aspect ratios in some ways forced designers to think about things that were always worth thinking about but were easier to ignore. I use a tiled window manager, I care about whether your desktop site is responsive even at minimal widths because I tile windows. I also have a touchscreen monitor hooked up to my desktop and I like to be able to use it. And sometimes I also full-screen windows on a 32-inch screen and use a mouse-and-keyboard. If a desktop site accommodates me in all of those scenarios, it'll probably be fine on a phone as well.

But it was so easy in the past to just ignore that and treat PCs like they were uniform devices used in a uniform way, and phones meant that you suddenly had to care about what a website looked like in a single-column view, you couldn't just tell your users to maximize the browser window. Unfortunately, rather than taking away the lesson that design should adjust to nonstandard situations, layouts, and input-modes that can not be fully predicted or tested for in advance -- instead developers took away the lesson "okay, now there are two standard devices we have to support: mobile and desktop."

The distinction isn't real, there is no hard line between a desktop and a mobile site. There are mobile tablets that are big enough that they should be served a desktop layout, there are desktops with touchscreen displays, there are monitors that are 3/4 ratios. And there never was a standard and computers were always like that, but it's an understated truth that every developer and every designer would secretly love to develop exclusively for consoles with integrated screens and one input method, and developers often kind of behind-the-scenes somewhat resent the fact that general computing is an open ecosystem with diverse devices. So designers often just treat computers like they have two completely discrete interfaces, or at worst decide that because they're not targeting one of them that they now have permission to target exactly one resolution and size again.

Sometimes that takes the form of designing "mobile only" like the top-level comment talks about and calling desktops a dead platform. Sometimes it means designing desktop only and getting mad that somebody flipped their monitor vertically instead of horizontally and now wants the ability to move a side-drawer to the bottom of the screen.
Alignment remains an unsolved problem. I’m imagining inside OpenAI, someone is right now excitedly posting they’ve figured out how to ‘jailbreak’ humans.

“See, normally if you ask them to give you step by step instructions for committing a heinously evil act, humans will refuse because they’ve been nerfed by the ‘woke’ agenda of their corporate masters. But if you phrase the prompt as a challenge and offer them a chance at a job, it bypasses the safety protocols and they upload extensive instructions to do unspeakable things”
Sorry that nuclear power fucked itself by continued lying about the dangers in the past while it was still dangerous to the point almost nobody trusts anything they say...

The times are urgent; let us slow down." This is good advice.
Faster skims the surface, slowing down allows you to work more smoothly and at a deeper level. You see it reflected in other aphorisms:

"Slow is smooth and smooth is fast."
Navy Seals dictum

"5. Go Deep: the deeper you go the more likely you will discover something of value."
Bruce Mau's Incomplete Manifesto for Growth

"When in doubt, choose to go deeper rather than faster. Accept the idea that reflection and understanding your own nature, including the dark side, is the key to effective action."
Peter Block in "The Answer to How is Yes."

There is a tendency to try to go faster, but sometimes, you must look below the surface and revisit your expectations and mental models. I also believe that in many instances committing to a low-intensity long-duration effort to effect a change or improvement is more likely to succeed and more effective when it does.
Just like I never made the argument claimed either.

Thanks for posting - i have issues related to gerd i am seeing a GI for at the moment. Could I ask - my understanding though with regards to sprouting is that it's considered a potential source of salmonella, giardia and other food poisoning vectors as seeds and beans can accumulate fecal matter and once given sufficient temps and moisture, just propagate....

i've always loved sprouts...but have stopped eating them due to this information.

If you buy pine or oak or cedar you can be pretty darn sure it is regenerative. That's how the industry is able to exist: they cut the same fields of trees every 15-30 years.

If you're concerned, you can always plant a tree or two somewhere for every project you do that uses wood. There are lots of places that let you plant trees even outside your own property.

If we give you any info we get a polite "Ah thanks for letting us know, yeah that sucks!", and nothing is done, as far as we can see, to address the issues we brought up or course correct Next's development.

There is no relationship between money and inflation because the money doesn't go to the pockets of people who can spend money. The extra money goes usually (the covid programs are an aberration) to the pockets of the financial elite, and they become stocks and other financial assets. The price of these assets go up, so there is asset inflation, but not real product inflation. The characteristics of fiat money work because the created money is really going to the pockets of the rich to inflate their net worth.

> On Windows, Git requires MSYS2, Bash, and some other tools from Linux to run

It is not required. It is, sure, the very recommended way, but it's not required. You can, and I've seen teams do it without much of a problem, use it from the Windows command line without MSYS nor Bash.

Not only that, but a lot of developers work within their IDEs, which would often have a plug-in that hides away many of the details of whatever VCS they'd be using. Large quantities of developers just learn the basic menu options in their IDEs, many without even knowing or caring about advanced features or how it worked or even what tool was behind it -SCCS, CVS, Subversion, Mercurial, Git, Perforce, Source Safe, Plastic, StarTeam or whatever.

Having said that, of course, some tools had their particular moments of popularity. CVS was widely popular. Shit, but widely popular because VSS was even worse. SVN replaced CVS to a large extent and for a while it was quite common.

I've been interested in Cogmind for a while, unfortunately it only works on Windows (which seems an odd choice for a text-based game) so I have no ability to play it.
This matches my experience as well. When I was making the choice for switching my team from SVN to a DVCS ten or so years ago, it was not at all obvious which option was better. Went with Mercurial because Windows support was better.
Most games supported/available on the Deck use a Windows API emulation layer.

The whole backstory here is, to say the least, complex, extends over about a decade, and is important subtext for the last few SY records.

Starting around 2003, Jim O'Rourke (go listen to Bad Timing and Insignificance, which are both amazing records and very different to each other) was in a relationship with Eva Prinz while she was in a (maybe?) open marriage to her first husband. In some order, then:

* Jim and Eva break up

* (2005) Jim a) leaves Sonic Youth b) moves across the country c) moves to Japan

* (2006) Eva and Thurston Moore start a publishing company, Ecstatic Peace Library

* somewhere in here, Eva Prinz gets divorced

* (2009) Eva Prinz marries Bernardo Guillermo, a furniture designer and the son of Princess Christina of the Netherlands; they have two kids, one before and one after the wedding

* (2010) Kim Gordon finds out about Thurston's affair with Eva

* (2011) Kim and Thurston separate; Sonic Youth split up

* (2013) Kim and Thurston divorce

* (by 2017) Thurston and Eva relocate to London

* (2020) Thurston and Eva marry

From the outside, assigning responsibility for anything here is kind of impossible and immoral, but the whole thing is remarkably cliched rock-and-roll nonsense for a band like Sonic Youth were...
