If you give someone a link they can access your terminal right? Then none of the rest matters. A URL isn't a secret. Hence it's unathenticated remote access. Which is nuts.

Every competent network admin in every company should be blocking this right now. What a crazy risk to open up for the sake of laziness.
If it's gonna happen, and I'm not convinced it needs to, it needs to be a prefix. Otherwise, it's harder to distinguish positional and keyword arguments.

But like the walrus operator (I was on the side of reuse of the keyword as), I worry I'll be on the losing side of this one too.
In the case of flight we're interested in a function: transportation. The plane performs that function so we call it 'flight'.

Were we interested in navigating the world as a flying animal does: in flocks, social navigation, hunting, etc. then indeed, planes would not count. Planes, in this sense, do not fly. Planes, in this sense, are a trick.

We already have 'functional intelligence', we've had it for thousands of years and perfected it in the 20th C with the electronic computer. Any system of automation we build is 'functionally intelligent', including the plane.

The problem is were not interested in this form. When Commander Data was written, with "I, Robot" and the like, the authors were writing People. They were writing animals. They imagined flying birds, just made of metal.

This is a (nomenological) impossibility, just as impossible as making an aeroplane to fly like a bird.

The kind of intelligence which matters to us is animal intelligence. The kind which matters to engineers, of course, is purely functional: more trinkets to sell.

But you cannot glue these together and call them a person, nor pronounce that what matters to you is the same as what matters to everyone else. This is a delusion, or a lie, and largely a mixture of both. A series of lies told to the public to maintain a popular delusion, one which is profoundly dangerous.

A creature in the world with us, talking to us and meaning what it says, judging situations we are in, advising us based on our needs and its understanding of them -- etc. is a creature whose mode of operation and mode of life is alike our own.

Lying that LLMs are this, saying that 'planes flock together in the sky', is dangerous. Users of these systems adopt a schizophrenic disposition to them, and rely on them -- this reliance, based on a lie, is dangerous to them. These systems have no such capacities. They generate text according to what is, on average, best given a historical corpus.

They do not imagine, reflect, emote. They do not move, sense, or coordinate. They have no intention to speak, and cannot mean what they say. They are not here with us. 'They' are not a 'they' at all -- rather, cleverly constructed tea-leaves based on a shredded recording of everything ever written.

In the matters of intelligence, we want an animal -- we do not want a calculator. This is a solved problem. And it is a dangerous thing to tell people their calculator's advice has considered their interests -- what nonesense.
I can't edit my previous comment but here's a better curl example:

`curl -s -o ./wg0.conf 'https://wirehub.org/wirehub/n/hub-network/device/1/download?...'`

This pulls the config and stores it in `wg0.conf`. The [Interface] section though is invalid (as there's no private key). So you'd have to either generate the keys on the server or somehow get them there. From then on it's just standard wg-quick and wg to create the interface and load your keys.

After the cron job, you'd want to do something like `wg syncconf wg0 <(wg-quick strip wg0)` so that wireguard picks up any changes from the pulled config.

Turns out humans get hit by trains much more often than you would think
Don't forget that Milan is a very old city (initially settled 400BC) so there was probably lots of old infrastructure and stuff to work around. Similarly old Amsterdam has a collection of all the objects found during the digging for one of the metro lines in one of the stations, with all sorts of very old coins, plates, knives, etc.
So what alternative theory do you have for all those accounts being closed?

> Does in-person conversation help to stabilize your flow of time?

No, it makes it a lot harder. It's easiest on a short-term basis if I constantly echo a phrase over and over in my head, like an internal metronome. I can't do that and talk at the same time. Nothing really helps, it is actual physical damage to your brain and nobody knows how to fix it. The best thing is to just accept that your brain is really broken and start finding mnemonics and workarounds to get by.

Britain's BBC has apologised to Nigel Farage over a story it ran on the closure of his accounts at NatWest's (NWG.L) private bank Coutts, which the former Brexit Party leader had said was the result of his political views.

The BBC had previously reported Farage falling below the financial threshold required to be a customer at Coutts - whose website advises its clients should be able to borrow or invest at least 1 million pounds ($1.28 million) with the bank or hold 3 million pounds in savings - was the reason for the closure.But an internal review of the bank account obtained by Farage showed the private bank's wealth reputational risk committee had said his values did not align with the bank's own.

"We acknowledge that the information we reported - that Coutts' decision on Mr Farage's account did not involve considerations about his political views - turned out not to be accurate and have apologised to Mr Farage," the BBC said in the corrections and clarifications section of its website.
I've recently held a talk (https://youtu.be/a7VBbbcmxyQ?si=0fGVxfc4qmKMVCXk) about github.com/romshark/jscan that I've been working on. It's a performance-oriented JSON iterator / tokenizer you might want to take a look at if interested in high performance zero allocation JSON parsing in Go.
Sending money through them still seems to be OK, mostly. But holding funds -and similarly to the Chase stories in this post- seems to be risky business, if you don't fit a cookie cutter model of a business (for whatever Wise's definition of that is). Ironically if you're using Wise, you probably aren't a cookie cutter business in the first place, so I don't know what's going on with them.

Anecdotally it definitely also seems to be related if you deal with the third world much, as the linked OP below and myself are. Luckily the worst I've come across is arbitrary extra KYC popping up exactly as I'm needing to do time-sensitive transfers.

You can be exclusive for exclusive-sake and you'll attract the dolce & gabana crowd and maybe that's what they want - people who will spend $500 on alcohol.

But as far as techno I've met all the Belleville 3, two of them twice and each time it's been at tiny spots with like $0-$5 cover.

I've even been to warehouse parties with producers big enough to have Wikipedia pages that are just honor systems where you promise to venmo the promoter and there is no door guy. Highschool kids could just walk in doing hard drugs and to be honest they probably did.

But then again, there's certainly pop techno and non-pop techno. Tiestos YouTube has like 3.7 billion views. That's a different problem than say

"Don't Get Distracted" – writing software that may be used to harm others

There are more options than “progresses in linear orderly fashion” and “totally arbitrary.” And if you read someone like Kuhn [1] you may question the progressing narrative of science.

I’d also be wary of separating scientific insights from philosophical/religious culture. Most famous scientists historically believed themselves to be looking for a divinely-organized system, and it’s unclear to me if they would have even looked in the first place without that underlying belief structure. You could go back even further and say all scientific inquiry basically rests on a conceptual distinction between Self and World, which is very much a trait of Monotheism.

I think philosophical insights could roughly be described as a mix of human biological realities (which haven’t really changed, ever) interacting with historical and technological events - and progressing over time in response to those events. Kant, for example, is mostly talking about things that are essentially fundamental to the human experience, even if he was in dialogue with the ideas that were popular in his time. People have argued against Kant, but I don’t think we can really “surpass” the kind of problem he’s investigating in the way you might think we have surpassed an outdated theory of physics.

That’s a strange way to explain away Moses’ encounter with God (what is written), seeing as according to the text it occurred many times without the burning bush present. See Exodus 33 on the tent of meeting.

Reading in psychedelics into the text is eisegesis rather than exegesis (reading in the interpreters bias into the text rather than discerning the original author’s intent).

What inconsistencies would you encounter? It would seem that a solipsistic view is trivially consistent. Any phenomenon you experience has a simple explanation : that's how it was designed for you. Conversely, a non-solipsistic view demands explanations for an unimaginable plethora of phenomena. Everything you observe from the subatomic to the cosmological to people eating Tide Pods has aspects that are difficult to explain.

Yes, they can. At least with credit unions, they can call you for clarifications when they or their system flags your transactions suspicious. With big banks, once they find your transactions suspicious, they will send a notice to close your accounts. No human being can help you.
Ha! What a lovely way with words you have. That made me laugh.

I’ve recently ‘gone solo’ and I decided to experiment with caring a little less about time. The only starkly visible clock in the house is on the oven, so I reset it. But it still tells a time, and I knew I’d eventually figure out the delta, so I covered it with tape.

It’s funny how lunch is supposed to be at ~midday, but when you don’t know when midday is, does it really matter when you eat lunch? It’s a really, really hard habit to kick. Gradually I get more to the stage where I eat “when I could eat”, but still. Lunch is at lunchtime.

This experiment did make me realise just how much I looked at that clock. Check the time, check the time. To what end? I can’t tell you. That habit does appear to be on the wane.
> we've developed as a society since cave times and it might be nice to keep things that way

What does that mean - "developed" mind shouln't be interested in sex? Does porn have to be degrading (for both sides)? You should better separate your own bias and then either have a better argument, or see the fallacy.
I didn't know about `jump`, that is super useful.
Honest question; what could anyone get out of this? What is the point of interpreting kant if the interpreter of kant can't even perceive what humans perceive? Kant doesn't seem to have much value outside of the context of human perception.

Yeah, I've messed with the stuff a bit in the past. I understand the technical details decently well.

I don't see any significant difference between Bitcoin and the rest. Bitcoin was just the first thing that stuck but that doesn't grant it any special privileges.
On letting go of spite
I think its implementation is a fork of a 2006-era Mono (a clean room reverse engineered .NET implementation). After a few releases, they had a falling out with the Mono team over licensing, meaning they got stuck on an old release.

Besides that, they made a bunch of proprietary changes to Mono to make it run on their engine, and to be able to export to literally any platform under the sun.

A lot of platforms, like iOS and consoles have (or had) a strict no-JIT policy, so they needed to come up with statically compiling code to said platforms. One of the methods they used was IL2CCP, which turned .NET bytecode, into horrible looking C++, full of goto-s, weird labels and structs getting passed around.

Considering some platforms had limitations like you had to compile the game solely with the C++ compiler the platform supplied, not sure if they had a better solution, but it's still horribly hacky.

They've been manually syncing up changes from the more recent versions, but I can't really tell, at what pace.

But the thing is, even the official Mono has never really kept pace with MS's implementation, and recently, after the acquisition, Mono was dropped by MS in favor of the CoreCLR.

T-Mobile offers 'Data with Paired Digits' lines; $10/mo for 600kbps max data and $20/mo for high-speed data. The second sim receives calls and most texts same as the first. The possible dealbreaker is short-code SMS never arrives to the Paired Digits line. Technically, the second sim has its own number, and T-mobile routes calls and texts to both lines.
That sounds like dev and user experience nightmare.

> [H]ow many different automata or moving machines could be made by the industry of man ... For we can easily understand a machine's being constituted so that it can utter words, and even emit some responses to action on it of a corporeal kind, which brings about a change in its organs; for instance, if touched in a particular part it may ask what we wish to say to it; if in another part it may exclaim that it is being hurt, and so on. But it never happens that it arranges its speech in various ways, in order to reply appropriately to everything that may be said in its presence, as even the lowest type of man can do

It totally is discrimination. A friend of mine in an EU country had the experience where a client’s payment to his business rang all the alerts and was delayed by his bank for a month just because it came from an African country. Both totally legitimate businesses doing no shady stuff whatsoever.

Try to explain to your employees how their salaries are delayed because your bank suspects you’re terrorists or something.

This and some other experiences turned me to someone who believes that the freedom to transact is an inalienable right, and that it should be taken out of the hands of governments and centralised institutions as much as possible.

We move them in the UK, and get more holidays than the Americans.
I’m always a little disappointed in this because the answer is actually “they copied it from a textbook” rather than “they did some clever maths”. But I guess it’s a triumph of knowing what solutions exist and when to use them, rather than brute forcing a solution (which is one of the reasons I still think non vocational computer science education is essential).
NEC V20/V30 implemented the entire 80186/80188 instruction set, hence the PUSHA and POPA that you have seen.

Intel 80186 had been launched in 1982, simultaneously with 80286, i.e. 2 years before NEC V20/V30, so NEC had ample time to update their instruction set.

NEC V20/V30 also implemented a mode when it directly executed Intel 8080 instructions, presumably to be able to execute some old CP/M applications.
Between x86 and the Alpha I much preferred the Alpha. Unfortunately it was wickedly expensive and it was hard to get. But for 64 bit work it was immediately usable and rock solid. It also beat Intel/AMD by about a decade to the market and I'm still kind of surprised that DEC managed to squander that lead.
Can you elaborate? From what I have seen the performance of OCaml isn't up to par with F#. The std. library is small compared to all of dotnet, not to say the surrounding ecosystem and third party packages and tools.

Idk. Don't want to start a war but rather hear specific arguments for why you like OCaml more.

I know some tech people who are capable of absorbing difficult material, but who never read for pleasure (and that means especially fiction). I think dyslexia may play a part in it.

If reading is really a chore for you, try looking for movies with more literate scripts. Many good writers have written for film, and in most genres.

If reading itself is not the problem and you are just easily bored, don't try to start with "serious" literature, but look for anything that grabs your attention. Not all of these are to my taste, but they have been broadly popular: The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy (1979), The Da Vinci Code (2003), The Big Sleep (1939), The Color out of Space (1927) (short), The Hunt for Red October (1984), Hondo (1953), Get Shorty (1990).
