I think people are using "lighting" two different ways in this conversation.

Assuming there are decent light levels to begin with, "lighting" means the play of light and shadow that makes your subject pop, that makes their face look like it has depth, then generally makes everything look attractive. This has nothing to do with your camera, and cameras have not gotten better at this, because cameras are irrelevant to it. When TV shows are lit well today, this is the lighting that's usually being talked about.

The other thing "lighting" means is "light that isn't too low". This was harsh studio lighting in the 1920's for example, and why even in the 1960's studio scenes couldn't be "naturally" lit -- and which was a major focus of lighting TV shows well in the 1960's, for example. But which we don't worry about anymore -- TV shows are generally shot at "real life" brightness levels today.

The larger point is that today, when we say that it's the lighting that matters for a shot more than the camera, we're usually referring to the first type I'm describing -- the artistic lighting. Cameras have not gotten any "better" at that. What has happened is that they've enabled shots at low lighting that weren't possible before, but that's only relevant in low-light conditions -- and you still need to distinguish between good/bad artistic lighting even when the light is low.

It is illegal for a company to lie to its investors, so it's usually illegal to lie to the public too.

> look how many shite films Hollywood makes, and they have top gear.

You can't even judge the output of the gear by what Hollywood puts out. Maybe the gear does make a huge difference. For all we know every shot out of the camera is breathtaking, but it doesn't matter if by the time it gets to the screen they've barfed orange and teal all over it, darkened it to the hide bad CGI, and edited it to assault the viewer with a muddy blur of special effects and fast cutting.
Service workers are incredibly more expensive than they were "a century ago" because of productivity increases and Baumol. You can't have a housemaid or a gas station attendant either.

Also, local banks and credit unions are usually less competent than big banks. They can't afford competence. That's why most countries don't have local retail banks; the US is an outlier here.
Thomason is a phenomenal lecturer, and clearly a great mathematician. It was kind of crushing when he called my Part III essay "pedestrian".
And you are the guy who left Visual Basic, COBOL, Perl, and FORTRAN off their "obviously safe choices for hiring in the future" list, despite them all having once been perceived as such.

These inconvenient counterexamples blow up the entire thesis. In practice, the "safe choice" for longevity is only evident in hindsight.

We will store that intermediate value in the stack, and read it back after the right term is done computing. If we take care that the code we generate for the right term doesn't write into the same stack slot, then we can be sure that the value will be preserved.

There are push and pop instructions which are perfectly suited to this nested value use. In the past, lamenting how many compilers don't seem to realise that (and the fact that push/pop are specially optimised on x86 via hardware known as the stack engine), I wrote a piece of a code generator with similar capabilities to the one in this article as a proof-of-concept, and with the addition of some trivial (rotating FIFO-like) register allocation, was able to generate surprisingly compact and fast code that looks like it could've been written by a human Asm programmer.

I believe Crenshaw's famous compiler tutorial also makes the same simplification, and it's also a powerful generalisation since it means that arbitrarily deep nested expressions can be compiled, as long as there is sufficient stack space.
I'm not entirely through with the video yet, but the core of the idea doesn't need that much from the MOV instruction. No control flow happens in the traditional sense from the CPUs point of view, it's all just linear execution. Instead, there's an abstraction on top that implements control flow by making all code that is not part of the current branch ineffective (but still executed).
>it's not the camera that makes the difference, it's the person operating it

Mostly yes, but the phone cameras are easier to operate (in a way to get really nice photos) than more traditional cameras. My mom had this exact remark about her iPhone (and her ability to take nice photos) on a recent vacation.

You have the right idea of fixing the problem of housing appreciating faster then inflation and being an investment but you are proposing the wrong solution.

The correct solution is crush nimbyism and zone land and speed permitting to fulfill need rather than to create artificial scarcity. Japan and Germany, among other provide various flavors of this working. I prefer japans method of moving zoning to a national body (in north america this would be at stae or province level) and zoning for national interest, which means allowing lots more density than we have now and allowing substantially faster, easier, and cheaper permit approval. On the demand side we can get rid of subsidy programs like cmhc that provide a naive backstop to allow 5% or no money down buying.
I'm not suggesting that public money should pay for private services per se.

It never bodes well when an essay opens with a strawman.

In the opening paragraph, the author describes one work style that’s on the verge of seizing up, and sets it against a work style that apparently produces nothing of business value at all?

They then work to criticize the latter as impractical, even though it’s just an imaginary business archetype that couldn’t possibly exist.

The reality is that most operating workplaces are already situated somewhere in the middle, navigating some version of the compromise the author spends the rest of the essay trying to lay out.

If the author is earnest and really worked at places that appeared as paralyzed as their strawman archetype, then either the business was already evaporating as they were hired into it or (more likely) they didn’t really understand what was going on and probably don’t have the insight to be writing about it.

Certainly many books today are over-written, but I also wonder if the general reader today is less adept at reading. Skills like memorization and a person's depth and breadth of knowledge all play a part in what you get out of reading and I feel like one could make the case that the average educated reader 100 years ago was better at these things than people today.
Where did the rest of the code come from, or who made the decision to start that way? They should at least be able to spearhead it. Obviously it's different for tiny organizations, but generally, if someone inexpertly made architectural decisions without building the institutional knowledge to continue without them, the language they chose will just be one of many big problems.

I'm a Hypochondriac, but It's About Programming
There's 3 seperate aircrafts in the F35 program which, if we designed any 2 of them, could have been coherent, well designed, well executed single aircrafts. It doesn't matter which 2, pick any 2 of the 3 missions and we could have gotten 2 great aircrafts.

But planners looked at the costs and said we simultaneously can't justify 3 seperate programs and also we can't simplify it down to one program, hence the ungainly mess that resulted.

Like I said before, if someone could have convinced any 2 of the branches of the military to knife the other one, we could have reached a much better place than we are now. That we didn't was a co-ordination problem.

Oracle's market capitalization is $298 billion, while Microsoft's market capitalization is $2.6 trillion. If there's anyone that can stave off Oracle's lawyers Microsoft is probably one of a handful that can.

Also, I'm guessing that Oracle is sufficiently desperate to wring any revenue out of their investment in cloud hardware so this might be a rare occasion where Oracle will just take the money and call it day.

> It would be so cool if someone could apply game theory for mortals that could digest these systems and show how to make them more "fair". It may be an impossible task but it seems worthy of exploration.

I consider this to be a hard, but clearly not an impossible task. What I rather consider to be nigh impossible is to get a good definition on what we actually want to achieve by creating these systems. There is where in my opinion the true difficulties lie.

Just to give some shallow examples:

Do we want to make this purpose be quite fixed (say, for decades) (and create a system around this purpose)? Then it will be quite hard to change the ship's directions if because of some event the economic environment changes a lot.

On the other hand: do you want to make the system's purpose very flexible, so that the system can react to such circumstances? You can bet that this will be gamed towards the political whims of the people inside the system.

On the other hand: if you want to get a glimpse at system ideas that did "work out", look at long-existing religions, or entrepreneurial dynasties with a history of centuries. It should be obvious that these examples are far off from a "democratic", "particapative" spirit (which perhaps should be a lesson for anybody designing such systems).
Just assume it already does ¯\(°_o)/¯

I have proposed[1] a pragmatic rule of thumb for defining superintelligence:

A system is superintelligent if in a remote hiring process it can get any non-physical job, earn a salary and perform its duties to the satisfaction of the employer. This should be true for all positions and for all levels of seniority, from an intern to senior staff and PHDs. The employer must believe they are employing a human (it's ok if doubts arise due to system vastly outperforming its peers).

Lighting is also over-emphasised, in my opinion. The unfortunate truth is that it's everything. Production design and talent are HUGELY important. If you have an amazing art department, costume design and beautiful people your camera and lighting team can be on autopilot and it will still look pretty great.

Grip is also huge for high production value camera movement — and you'll see on the BTS video Apple absolutely don't skimp here. Pretty funny putting a $1000 phone on a $200,000 (at least! I'm not a grip guy, but that's the region) crane.

Intelligence is a fuzzy term, but I'd say when it can formulate, rationalize, and realize it's own goals without prompting or excessive manual programming, it can probably be considered intelligent. Introspection, failure-based learning models, and future simulation are probably important as well, but maybe not necessary for setting a base level.

>what are the tropes that characterize the genre?

One is the fusion of pre- and post-Christian religion and high culture, mix of folklore and myths and Catholicism that often has an occult feel to it. A preoccupation with death as a living thing, pagan themes in general.

What immediately comes to mind is something like the first two seasons of Westworld. Heavy use of Mayan architecture via the Llyod textile block houses, heavy Christian symbolism contrasted with native and Mesoamerican tradition, and so on.

The Shadowrun universe is pretty heavily influenced by Mesoamerican themes as well. It's not uncommon to show up in science fiction in particular.

Not really? Let's recap the events:

* The president made promises on the campaign trail to take on "big tech".

* The president appoints an FTC chair with the stated goal of opening cases against "big tech", and said FTC chair affirms these promises when she takes office (you can look it up this is true).

* The FTC chair feels she's executing the mandate of the voters by taking on more ambitious (read: worse) cases against "big tech".

This looks a lot more like democracy working as intended, even if I disagree with it. I think Kahn is right to feel pressure to bring cases against "big tech" given that the president who appointed her promised this course of action, and also because she herself affirmed these promises when she took office.

The issue is that it would require legislation to deliver on these promises. Like it or not "tech company has too much influence" is not grounds for breaking up a company or blocking mergers. What Biden and Kahn promised to do is just fundamentally not what the law allows the FTC to do. Even a highly competent FTC chair would have failed to block Activision merging with Microsoft.

This isn't corruption or incompetence. It's a story of being given an impossible task.
No.

Stocks are (in practice, effectively) denominated as fractions of company.

What I am describing is closer to bonds. They are denominated in currency, but still backed by the value of the company.

Bonds (or something equivalent to bonds) are used all the time to pay people. Eg someone who gets paid at the end of the month accrues something like a bond throughout the month. The company owes her more and more of something denominated in currency, not in stocks. At the end of the month, the company redeems that IOU by transferring currency.

Paying people in stocks is much rarer.

Importantly, the base pay of most people from one month to the next is fixed in terms of currency, not in terms of a specific number of stocks.
Yeah i agree but i think this ship has long sailed - over the shoulder cameras are pretty much everywhere these days. I avoided several 3rd person perspective games for this reason alone (some even had me feel nauseous) and eventually had to force myself to get used to it since i wanted to play some games that switched to it (e.g. Mass Effect 3). Nowadays i can play a game using it without feeling off but i still prefer it when games put the character at the center of the screen.

(also i yelled at more than one game that had an option to switch shoulder but not put the character at the center - if you are bothering to implement this why not also add the center option? :-P)
