To me, the problems with Twitter were never complicated. The thing Twitter wants you to do with it is not good: it wants you to pay constant attention to a stream of short messages. Occasionally the messages are funny, sometimes they are even insightful, but they are always short and there is never and end to them. I could never imagine how that would make me smarter, wiser, or better informed. I could see how it would help me waste a lot of time, sure. But even if Twitter succeeds beyond their wildest expectations and nothing ever happens that was not exactly according to plan, it still leaves the world a worse place. If you think something makes the world a worse place, my advice is don't do it.
Add "reddit" to your query. That's pretty much it.
Google doesn't provide explicit search numbers for a user but I estimate with ChatGPT my own use of Google has probably gone down by 5%

Okay. If you're going to make a point based on an event, I would recommend making some effort to get the details right. It's hard to have a discussion that isn't grounded in truth.

AFAIK, the US and Israel make explicit efforts to avoid killing civilians in an effort to abide by international rules of engagement. Compare this to Hamas, who makes explicit efforts to target civilians and use them as human shields (even glorifying and celebrating it), and you can see why it's impossible to draw a moral equivalence of the two. Like I said, apples to oranges.
Here's a good read to start on: https://towardsdatascience.com/introduction-to-embedding-clu...
Are you saying the people who complain about poor performance are lying?
There is a single answer to all of these questions:

Isaiah 55:8-9

"For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," declares the LORD. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts."

In other words, don't try to comprehend something you have no chance of comprehending
If that is true with regard to Google search, why is Google paying so much?
Today I learned, thanks!
Ok, but do you think that's a good thing?

> At 400Kw, you're using DC

Yes. So CCS type 2 Combo not "clearly inferior" to the "clearly superior" Tesla plug, is it.

> CCS type 3 is compatible with existing Tesla vehicles (it's a software update)

Teslas 2019 and earlier need a CCS retrofit. It's not just a software update.

> Tesla superchargers max out at 250Kw because they have all been 400V

That's wonderful. Show me the charger that's delivering 400 kW on the Tesla plug today. Remember, the contention is that the Tesla plug is "clearly superior" so it should already be faster, right?
That's a known issue with the BGE embeddings, the authors warn about that in the model card. Their recommendation is to choose more carefully the thresholds for similarity (which will be much higher than for other embeddings)
>>> Irrespective of the history, the current situation is not very complex: it's a one sided war where Israel is the occupier (responsible for a lot of inhumane actions), and Palestinians, represented by Hamas, are resisting by whatever means necessary (no matter inhumane e.g the Oct 7th attack).

I don't believe this for a second. It gets repeated a lot. I've grown very skeptical and mistrustful of political arguments that begin with "It's simple...". Having grown up in a country who's situation is often compared with Israel/Palestine (although thankfully on a far smaller scale) I can tell you it's never simple. It's not simple to the people who live there and it's utterly impenetrable to those who don't. Most of the trouble is caused by people who insist that it's simple.

>>> Peace is usually in the hands of the more powerful, the one who has more, and can give more

What makes you say this? Nothing I have seen makes me think that this is true. A few hundred people can keep a country in a state of chaos for years no matter what everyone else wants.
1) Regulations (vehicle fuel comes from sources/supply chains generally not willing to do the paperwork)

2) Lack of solid quality control relative to aviation fuels (see #1)

3) Power to weight ratio matters a LOT in aviation, and aviation engines run at typically far higher elevations for at least part of their flight time. So aircraft engines generally push things harder, have higher compression, and can be damaged more easily with 'junk' or contaminants.
AI generated content will change that.

I imagine the threshold is something like 1 SRE for every $1mm of high-margin revenue you can link to guaranteeing the 2nd "9" of $product availability/reliability.
> e.g., that Nike has a conflict of interest because it is their opinion that you should purchase their shoes.

It's even worse: that Nike has a conflict of interest because they think that wearing shoes while running is good, even though it would be extremely weird if a running shoe company thought that running with shoes is bad.

Remove the business from the equation and the opinion is fine — it's the existence of a business that aligns with the opinion that creates the conflict! Galaxy brain definition.

No sympathy. Where I live, there are strong noise restrictions on holidays and Sundays. A huge proportion of the population support this - it is very nice to have days without lawnmowers, chainsaws or whatever.

Who is exempt? Aviation. One plane makes noise over tens of thousands of people. The absolute worst are the stunt planes.
Correct. Burp is the main competitor, but it's been around a long time and I wanted to develop something from scratch to address a number of the problems myself and other pentesters have had with it.

Not that the actual research result sound all that interesting to me. (Eating more red meat, after adjusting for BMI, was NOT associated with increases in any of several markers for inflammation in ~4K study participants.)
>It's also the simple fact that the average blue collar worker hasn't seen rising wages since the 80s.

You probably need to define what you mean by average blue collar worker as there are many ways of looking at this data (and it is often difficult to even find the estimated levels of transfer payments being given).
For example, this Fed chart shows CPI adjusted median household income rising from around 57 thousand to around 75 thousand today:

Sorry, I don’t understand the point you’re trying to make here. Finding ways to present information that are both functional and attractive — and stay both of those things as the information evolves — can be a challenge, but I don’t believe those are completely independent axes and I don’t think achieving and sustaining both in combination is an unrealistic ideal. Indeed, I’ve spent a significant part of my professional life creating specialised user interfaces for various products that try to do exactly that.
Thanks for the answers. Some followups:

1. Seems like you would need quite a bit of capital to be one of these integrator companies, to float the cash to buy land, build a facility and buy the racks. Does your own vs rent philosophy extend so far to also say that companies should also own the land and facility on and in which a server rack sits? Early on, Amazon talked about purpose-built datacenters being important, with huge power and internet connectivity requirements, earthquake/fire/flood protection and HVAC requirements. Sounds like the best way to go, if you have a huge amount of cash, seems like unit economics are now favoring data center costs in the billions of USD.

2. For now, would it make much sense to buy one or more of these and co-locate it with a cloud company's existing facilities in an office building? Or, if you had some space in a "good" datacenter where you leased space and sublet space, connection, power and maintenance costs to your customers, would that reduce the friction for buying one of these? Or does that essentially defeat the purpose and advantage of owning your own racks? If you remove the price of renting the rack, what's the ongoing cost to park one of these in an existing datacenter? Is that even an option?

3. From a purely mechanical perspective, the performance and efficiency advantages with liquid cooling vs. air cooling seem great. Seems like the problem is mostly around installation, maintenance, application requirements and reliability. Would be great to eventually see an integrated rack with liquid cooling plumbing hookups going directly to heat exchangers. At the cost of massively increased initial cost, maintenance cost, and with a built-in severe, catastrophic failure mode... Understood that this doesn't really make sense if these racks are being put into existing air-cooled datacenters or office buildings, which seems like it's going to be the case for awhile?

5. Too bad, seems like your prospective customers are in a similar sales funnel as people who want to rent capacity in a private cloud (and it's always nice to be your own customer!) What prevents your competitors from also selling servers? Do you think that the reason that public cloud companies don't sell servers is that they think their competitors will get ahold of the hardware and copy their technical advantages? Or is it that they have the deep pockets for building datacenters that their customers don't necessarily have, and they would rather have monthly revenue anyways?
Thanks. I didn't experience that part, but I can definitely see that this would happen. My position is still that it was a very questionable idea even without outside attention, but this definitely didn't help
That's what markup is for; it saves you from unproductive embellishment. Obviously, this does not apply for coding.
In 2015, I told my circle of friends at college that Elizabeth Holmes was a fraud, and that she was only able to get so far by masking as the female Steve Jobs. I simply stated that what she was claiming was impossible. I got called a misogynist lol.

Really smart people sometimes get lost in the structure of narrative and forget to do basic queries. I also learned that you gotta be careful who you criticize even if you are totally right. People won't change their opinion on your statement when the evidence vindicates you.

Well, if you look at the company behind it, their whole thing seems to be optimizing cloud costs so maybe that has some part in it?

So, apparently, is operating a motor vehicle. Except large swathes of the economy will collapse without them.

Oh, we aren't talking about tire dust? Never mind.
Something I hope to eventually hear is the solution to the full cold start problem. Most giant custom-stack companies have circular dependencies on core infrastructure. Software-defined networking needs some software running to start routing packets again, diskless machines need some storage to boot from, authentication services need access to storage to start handing out service credentials to bootstrap secure authz, etc.

It's currently handled by running many independent regions so that data centers can be brought up from fully dark by bootstrapping them from existing infra. I haven't heard of anyone bringing the stack up from a full power-off situation. Even when Facebook completely broke its production network a couple years ago the machines stayed on and running and had some internal connectivity.

This matters to everyone because while cloud resources are great at automatic restarts and fault recovery there's no guarantee that AWS, GCP, and friends would come back up after, e.g., a massive solar storm that knocks out the grid worldwide for long enough to run the generators down.

My guess is that there are some dedicated small DCs with exceptional backup power and the ability to be fully isolated from grid surges (flywheel transformers or similar).
Yes, but I was commenting about the idea of a "carbon tax" on aviation fuel.

Now a lead tax might be something to think about if the non-leaded fuel costs more for some reason, lead being more of a concern than carbon in this instance. Tax the lead to make it the more expensive option.

It’s the build exploit cycle of trust, Michael Lewis has built up trust that he can now exploit. Though SBF is so far beyond the pale that instead of trusting SBF more I just trust Michael Lewis much less.
I'm an SE that helps software companies build integrations on top of the Prismatic platform and I've had the pleasure (or displeasure in this case) of building clients out to auth against a ton of different "flavors" of oauth.

We have a service that manages the exchange and refreshing of tokens for our customers and the number of unique implementations we're forced to support is mind boggling. I found it quite surprising how even some of the largest names in the industry have mangled their own implementations. Definitely not a "standard" in actual application.

It's clearly a difficult spec to implement, but I've witnessed that it's even more difficult for developers to learn and make use of when they're building out integrations to new systems. Unfortunately for most that do require supporting third-party integrations it becomes a necessary evil and one more burden for devs to manage and support.

I'm interested if others who have spent time dealing with a lot of third-party APIs have had similar experiences?
Thankfully it turned out not to cling to surfaces (unfortunately it turns out it was airborne instead) like rhinovirus, so the surface cleaning proved unnecessary.

You can't just pick a set of present day winners in the marketplace of ideas and pretend you can wave a wand and relocate all the labor that went into what you now think are the best things and make them even better. We arrived at our present day through an open marketplace where people were free to branch off and create and the resulting ideas cross fertilized. If you go back far enough all of the things you now regard as best in class were at some point an upstart which according to your priorities would be dismissed in favor improving something that by now is extinct because as things progressed it was deemed too inferior to continue improving.

In fact best being pretty subjective and its highly unlikely that most would even agree at any point in time which ought to be worked on and which abandoned and its entirely likely that if you convinced someone not to work on option B or C their labor isn't magically added to A. You may have noticed that individual projects have a certain vision on how their project is going to progress and B and C exist specifically because their vision differs from A. Deprived of the outlet of making B those developers might take on more commercial work or they might go fishing.

It's likely that an ecosystem that believed in your perspective to be impoverished by lack of choice but its unlikely for what you imagine the winners to be enriched. In fact many of them might not even exist.

Maybe, but unlike websites it’s easy to see the “reputation” of a given YouTuber by looking at past videos and the comments at least.
> they take a very hefty cut (50-100%! btw this doubles the "cost" of the grant, it doesn't lessen the amount the professor gets

This leads to some very interesting conversations at universities.

"Your department doesn't bring in many grants, so we can't grant your budget request."

"But grants aren't revenue. They're money used to cover the expense of doing research."

"Yes, but they bring in overhead."

Then when the granting agencies try to cut overhead:

"We can't afford a cut in overhead. That money is used to cover the cost of doing research. We'd be losing money."

Graphviz is the classic option but unfortunately it isn't very good. I mean it was great when it was written in the 80s or whatever but then it seems like it was declared "done" and is still stuck in the 80s.

Quite annoying because it totally dominates the mindshare of graph layout tools, making it difficult to find alternatives.

Here's some other options anyway:

* Eclipse Layout Kernel: https://github.com/eclipse/elk

* OGDF: https://ogdf.uos.de/

In fairness both their websites are pretty terrible (would some examples kill you OGDF?) and they don't provide an easy way to try them out, so I guess it's not that surprising that Graphviz dominates.

Anyway in practice if you have a complex graph then doing it manually is by far the best option.

If it's too big to do manually then it's unlikely to be a useful graph in the first place.
I'm not sure the "global square" model of Twitter scales well for so many people. Just reading the comments here it seems like a lot of people use Twitter/X defensively. They're constantly scanning for what they think is grift, politics, etc. They have an attitude of "do not disturb me" on X by default. This sort of gruff fatigue is what seems to set in on very large, cacophonous social networks.

I also find Youtube to be a lot healthier, probably because not everyone is incentivized to have an opinion, and it's quite easy to ignore the Comments section. I find the Youtube -> Discord pipeline to be great. I'd love to have an open version of this, something like Peertube/Bitchute -> Matrix, but due to the usual reasons FOSS continues to only appeal to small niches.
you are forgetting an important aspect, refresh rate and the fact that certain screens insert black frames to reduce ghosting which produce blinking effect that is not good for the eye/brain.
Nitromethane engines are less than 50% efficient and batteries are already about 10% as dense as nitromethane, so it's less than a factor of 5 difference.

For drag, the limit is more likely to be power density rather than energy density (same reason why more energy dense gasoline isn't used in top-fuel; the limiting power factor for a typical ICE is the amount of air you can get in the cylinder and you get about double the power with nitromethane vs gasoline for a fixed amount of oxygen).

[edit]

The power you can get with nitromethane is only double if you run stochiometric; since it is partially self-oxidizing, running richer lets you get even more power (sources seem to indicate 4x). Of course running rich lowers the efficiency even more.
My assertion is people are people. If the Constitution says the right is to people then people have the rights if people. If you have no right to bear arms you're not a person and the first contrary to your claim does explicitly tailer congresses limitations on assembly and petitioning to 'people' just as the second tailers to people.

> This is a universal human thing I find.

From everything I've read, building (and rebuilding) in Japan is much more straightforward than in the states, or other Western countries.

We've invented many processes and regulations that were well-intended, meant to reduce abuse or exploitation (e.g. pollution, destroying local environment, etc) but also made it hard to build even things that are good, that we broadly want, like new infrastructure or more housing as housing prices rise.
