> Homeschooling is guaranteed to increase inequality, not decrease it.

Your statistics support the previous claim. If you have a group out performing the public school by 15 to 30% there will be more spread in educational outcomes. Many would see that as a good thing when some kids get closer to reaching their potential, but not everyone wants that.
No, that's not a fact. It's an observation that shows how people with training and resources can do a better job than the public school system. But as more affluent kids move out of the school system, funding will decrease, leaving the kids belonging to poor or uneducated parents stranded, until they too are forced to homeschool.

It's funny how people will gut the foundation of public education over decades, then turn around and point saying "Look, it's shaky." Of course it's shaky. It's chronically underfunded, teachers have no say over student behaviour and no control over the curriculum.

On one hand - there are a lot of angry birds clones and tutorials showing you how to code an angry birds game, the choice of game here probably greatly helped the outcome.

On the other hand - the way he iteratively programmed it (https://twitter.com/javilopen/status/1719363669685916095) I can see becoming more and more useful over time.

It's obviously not the most difficult example to use, but it does indicate a very interesting future.

2 channels of DDR5-5600 = 89.6GB/s theoretical max bandwidth and a Q4_0 quant takes about 6.7GB of VRAM used, which is 13.4X, so that maps out pretty well for inferencing speed (I think the divided by parameters maybe only works for 4bit in this case). Interestingly, the ROCm implementation does go a bit faster (>15 t/s so it must have some tricks up its sleeve).

The Radeon 780M does 8.9 TFLOPS of FP32, 17.8 TFLOPS of FP16, so if 20 flops/byte applies, it has roughly 10X more compute than memory bandwidth for inferencing.
I think this solution is about the perfect thing I can come up with, conceptually. Nocode is easy but rigid. Coding is flexible but tedious and error prone.

Being able to talk out what you want to quickly get the code, as long as it's clean, gives you the flexibility to then tune as needed. And in some cases, like apparently this one, that wasn't even necessary. Exciting times ahead...
> You may want to consider toning it down.

FWIW I didn’t take OP’s comment to be of a criticizing tone, I just assumed they were legitimately curious and looking to improve their understanding. I don’t think there’s anything for them to “tone down” in that regard.
Also it actually can tell you which door you hid the car behind, because unlike with the purely mathematical game, your placement isn't random, and your doors aren't perfect. Between humans being quite predictable (especially when they try to behave randomly) and the environment leaking information left and right in thousands of ways we can't imagine, the AI will have plenty of clues.

I mean, did you make sure to clean the doors before presenting them? That tiny layer of dust on door number 3 all but eliminates it from possible choices. Oh, and it's clear from the camera image that you get anxious when door number 2 is mentioned - you do realize you can take pulse readings by timing the tiny changes in skin color that the camera just manages to capture? There was a paper on this a couple years back, from MIT if memory serves. And it's not something particularly surprising - there's a stupid amount of information entering our senses - or being recorded by our devices - at any moment, and we absolutely suck at making good use of it.

If one half of a mirrored pair dies, you're left with one copy of the data on a drive that's at risk of also dying, plus whatever portion of the data you have backed up. If you then write new data to that drive, it isn't mirrored anywhere and is also guaranteed to not be backed up yet. So the newly written data is at equal or higher risk than the data that was already on the surviving drive. It's not hard to see how silently accepting new writes that cannot be mirrored could be an unacceptable risk to some end users.

With btrfs, you can easily add a new drive so that new writes can be accepted and mirrored immediately, then start rebuilding the old data with lost redundancy (possibly after running another incremental backup, which will be less stressful to the drive than the full rebuild). But the "add a new drive" step happens outside the kernel, in userspace and possibly in meatspace, so it can't be a default action for the kernel to take.

I mean it doesn't matter if its transferred or not, it's the purpose the data is used for.

One concept I've seen floated is separating the advertising markets from the user-facing services. As in DOJ/antitrust legal seperation of Google, Facebook, etc into smaller entities.

In that world Facebook-the-social-network-I-use company would need to send data Facebook-the-advertising-market company for each page load to request some ads to display. What data would be in that request? My reading of EU law is that such data couldn't be personally identifying or of a private nature (so, like, 99.9% of what I do on facebook...). Features like time of day and language of user would be fine and appropriate - the sort of data used by TV networks to choose which ad to display on their broadcast.

It doesn't matter if you seperate the Facebook company this way, my understanding of EU privacy law is that they still can't use your private data to augment the advertising part of the business when you were there to use the social network part of the business. (Note: the social network still provides user aggregation and has value to FB without any ad personalization).

> And there is a small but hard-to-ignore percentage who claim to homeschool but really neglect their kids.

That is true in the public school as well. Local churches used to organize breakfast in some of the parks during the summer for kids whose parents just wouldn't get around to feeding them. Statistically speaking, a child getting sent to the public school is more likely to be in that category than a homeschooled child.

Most parents who don't want to deal with their kids, welcome sending them to have someone else watch them.
Sounds intriguing
Aside from DBs, there are many other communication tools that use a schema. I can think of at least two: Kafka and serialization libraries like Protobuf and Thrift.
Yeah, secular vs religious is not any basis for judging a value system. We've certainly seen horrible things done by fundamentalists of all stripes, religious or not! There is a lot of very beautiful religious thought over the millenia, and its very beauty is what enables its abuse by bad actors. We must always judge people as individuals by their actions in context, and never allow any form of ideology (whether religious or not) to be used as a shield against individual scrutiny. Morality is unfortunately not black and white, and the moment we try to make it so, we open the door to the greatest evils.
> in hot, arid climates.

Swamp coolers, aka evaporative cooling, work great in these conditions and are very energy efficient. In hot, dry areas, this is a solved problem.

How much energy would a passive solution save? Running a fan and a water pump for an evap system is light weight duty.

A passive system for higher humidity areas would be a game changer.
Teensies are very much overkill for a lot of projects. I have gathered a decent amount of random microcontroller boards now and it's just a lot of fun to make them do random things.

I have some arduino nano knockoffs to do the really simple pin toggle things, some ESP8266 modules for when I need to do wifi enabled things. A few wiznet modules if I need to add ethernet to any module and the new raspberry pi pico boards are amazing if you need more performance and a really nice SDK.

The Teensy is a bit more expensive than those but you get almost an order of magnitude more performance for that cost, the perfect product between the other MCUs and just putting a linux enabled SBC in your project

Nice sentiment, but exactly nothing outside of purely theoretical mathematical constructs work like this. Hell, even math doesn't really work like this, because people occasionally make mistakes in proofs.

EDIT: think of it this way: you may create a program that clearly makes it impossible for a variable X to be 0, and you may even formally prove this property. You may think this mean X will never be 0, but you'd better not wager anything really important over it, because no matter what your proof says, I can still make X be 0, - and I can do it with just a banana. Specifically, by finding where in memory X is physically being stored, and then using the natural radioactivity of a banana to overwrite it bit by bit.

Now imagine X=0 being the impossible stock market crash. Even if you formally prove it can't happen, as long as it's a meaningful concept, a possible state, it can be reached by means other than your proven program.

Alphanullmeric is taking about IP in a legal context. They want the laws to change, rather than say killing off humanity which would also eventually eliminate IP.

Legality is thus the basis for the discussion.

Also, changing the text when you quote someone is dishonest and disrespectful. Swapping in ‘ip’ for ‘Intellectual property’ may seem meaningless to you, but they typed it out for a reason.

ROScribe is an AI-native robot software solution now; other than software generation (which is far more than code generation; it includes software specification, code retrieval from online repos, code retrieval from internal IPs, as well as code generation), we want to facilitate simulation (gazebo,...) and the actual robot build (order components online, etc.). That's why we called it platform. We are an early stage startup; hopefully our product gets better.

Well, beyond that I might argue we really need regulations about what terms are legally and socially acceptable, and what terms are unconscionable.

(EU privacy/data protection regulations already have some of these, and they were violated by Facebook, which is what the article is about).
Yes, I completely understand the purely practical side of the issue. And perhaps paying the ransom does achieve a local maxima in terms of least harm, but it also prevents achieving an even greater maxima of least harm.

To be clear, I'm not saying that anyone is obligated to "take one for the team", or that anyone is bad for not being willing to. I'm just saying that if everyone was willing to, far less harm would be done in the longer term.

To me, a ransomware attack is little different than if someone just physically blew up the computers (or, with medical records, the hospital). It's a huge, costly disaster, but the damage is done. If we as a society thought of it like that and perhaps provided support (financial and otherwise) for people who get harmed like we do with any other large disaster, we could be in a better place for everyone except the criminals. Maybe we'd even put systems into place for the greater redundancy of medical records, to mitigate against actual health consequences of such attacks.

We'd also have greater interest in providing support for implementation, education & investigation in terms of hardening against such attacks.

I thought the likening of the strictness of the language and compiler errors and warnings to an emotionally abusive relationship was quite offensive.

I programmed in C and C++ for years, to compiler messages don't make me feel like I should be taking them personally. Sure beats having a runtime error any day.

I wonder if those with that attitude have come from a background where they used dynamically typed languages or non-compiled languages more, or it is something even people with a wider experience find particularly onerous with Rust?

CA used a large variety of timewaster Facebook apps (Quizzes and the sort) to gain access to more user data than was likely ever intended, not just about the party that authorized the app, but also about their friends.

It is more Facebooks inaction despite being aware of this rather than their actions.

> Also if there is no free will then we cannot judge anyone, no matter what they did, because they didn’t have choice.

This doesn't make sense. If there is a rock in the middle of the road, it would make sense to remove the rock from obstructing the road. Are we "judging" the rock in this case?

OTOH, if the rock happen to cause a massive accident, it seems absurd to punish the rock and try to cause as much suffering to the rock to compensate for all the suffering it caused.

> Without free will we would live in perfect harmony with nature, like all the other species do.

Harmony how? Like all the viruses, parasites, do you know what dolphins to pufferfish? What about cannibalism? Or infant mortality in nature?

> We are so free that we can even deny the existence of our freedom, hence avoid taking responsibility of our actions.

Realizing that free will does not exist does not mean that we don't have to live life anymore. We still have to live it. What it does it remove a lot of unnecessary baggage. Is it necessary to punish a rock for falling over a person? An elephant going on a rampage? What about murder?

When you realize that murder (or whatever immoral actions) is just the totality of the universe, you can think of any bad actions as just a very complex case of a brain tumor. You wouldn't blame a person for committing homicide once we learn that they went on a rampage because they have a brain tumor. But if we know enough about the universe, we will realize that pretty much anything that a human ever do is just another complex case of a brain tumor. Why did they do what they did? Well, here's a trillion page explanation of exactly why it happened starting from the Big Bang. Does it make sense to blame them now, still?
