But but its self-governed and managed.... managed by crooks.
Huh, somehow I'm not surprised.

At least it's a more sympathetic cult than AI acolytes or effective altruists.
You are implying that every manager is competent and every criticism from a subordinate is baseless.
What you're proposing is how patents are supposed to work. The original proposition is that you get time-limited legal protection in exchange for putting your invention in the commons. Of course this has been subverted e.g. by trash patents esp. in the software area where the description just says the equivalent of "magic happens here" on step 17.

“Difficult to extract any useful info from this post” reads as undue criticism, as if preemptive satisfaction of your curiosity about the tangent was compulsory.
Your starter is not more reliable — it’s actually two starters in one: a traditional starter, and then one which handles the special scenario of “auto-start-stop.” I don’t have any reason to believe this is necessarily less reliable, but the starter itself is significantly more complex and expensive. In a fully gasoline vehicle, I think this technology is situational at best. In a hybrid it makes a lot of sense since the engine will normally be stopping much more frequently.
Once we know which money is working against our interests, we stop accepting that money. If people show up at the grocery store with it, they leave empty handed. Eventually, people start assessing risks differently, and stop investing in endeavors that are likely to leave them in that situation.
I've had the opportunity to work under various managers, each with their own distinct qualities. While some have been commendable, others have fallen short. In the tech industry, a significant portion of individuals lack a genuine passion for technology; instead, they opt for this field due to monetary incentives. Many swiftly pivot towards managerial roles, often at the expense of their technical expertise, resulting in superficial knowledge.

This transition frequently leads to unrealistic demands regarding project timelines and deliveries. There's a prevalent lack of faith in engineers among these managers, primarily because they struggle to grasp the intricacies of the work engineers do.
You can still be a force for decentralization by creating actually open ai. For now it seems like Meta AI research is the real open ai

They may choose to, and they did choose to.

But it was an incompitant choice. (Obviously.)
> If you wait until a new technology definitively exists to start caring about safety, you have guaranteed it will be unsafe.

I don’t get this perspective. The first planes, cars, computers, etc. weren’t initially made with safety in mind. They were all regulated after the fact and successfully made safer.

How can you even design safety into something if it doesn’t exist yet? You’d have ended up with a plane where everyone sat on the wings with a parachute strapped on if you designed them with safety first instead of letting them evolve naturally and regulating the resulting designs.
People could afford to say more nice things. Perhaps it would even devalue the false flattery used by salespeople to their advantage.

OTOH the parent comment's take seems reasonable. Calling your dad and saying "I love you" because you want to be written into the will is sort of the level we're dealing with here.
Then why not use Haskell?
This analysis doesn't seem right to me, let me try to think it through. It seems more like "the business is blocking competition from selling at lower prices". The problem in question here is actually the playstation "store".

I'm trying to find a good analogy. Say we're in the early NES days (no online stores, just physical). Nintendo gets a margin on games, because presumably game developers have to pay them for dev kits or some such to make an NES game. The game devs (distributors, publishers, whatever) then sell the game to the stores for some price that gives them a margin. Then the stores add their margin on and sell it to customers. Three margins in there, from there different businesses that have competitors, so they try to keep their margins competitive.

Now let's say Nintendo made a deal with Toys R Us such that NES games could only be sold there, no other stores. Assuming that didn't destroy demand for NES games, Toy's R Us could then ramp up their margins to whatever they want, because there's no other option to consumers. Unfair advantage? Stifling competition?

With Sony, they own the store, and have ensured there's only one. So they get to leverage the same advantage as above. Is it unfair?
This article references gcc 4.1, __builtin_parity is likely newer than that.

> Gasoline superusers: Only 10% of US drivers burn almost a third of the gas

For what it’s worth that will always be true and is just an observation of the Pareto principle. For example, once you get rid of that 10% you’ll still likely have roughly the same ratio remain true even though in absolute terms there’s been a reduction.
The corporate form is disappointing. Everything described is inevitable.

How do you review old communication from 8 years ago? Or find texts with particular criteria - “from x, subject like y, received within a week of date z, has attachment”
Here's a joke I like telling:

Regarding astral projection, Woody Allen once wrote, "It is not
a bad way to travel, although there is usually a half-hour wait for your
luggage."
Yes it might. "Reduction of number of neurons" is not static here, unlike traditional pruning approaches, here they still keep all weights, but the network dynamically selects which sub-portion of them to use. There is a related discussion of this in section 3.2 (page 4), but they don't think they mention actual memory bandwidth requirements/wins of their implementation, and probably there can be different tradeoffs for different devices.
> In general, I'm leaning towards a strategy where I freeze the product for a while and put 99% of the time + money + energy into marketing for purposes of finding PMF.

Have you looked into cohort retention of your users? If your users continue using your app, then I'd say keep going. Otherwise, there's no point in spending effort in marketing IMO.
> “Deep understanding of what is a computer, what is computer software, and how the two relate.”

Seems like a joke, but many developers do not really understand what's going on behind the scenes. This gets straight to the point. They don't care about HR keyword matching on your CV, or how many years of experience you have of being a mediocre developer with language X or framework Y. I guess during the interview they will investigate whether you truly understand the fundamentals.
I hate this anti-feature. It makes the vehicle really sluggish, adding seconds to every takeoff. It's completely nerve wracking making an unprotected left when you have to wait for the engine to start before the vehicle even starts moving.

It also strikes me as a sub-optimal greedy optimization. If every car has this feature, then overall takeoff time in a long line of cars at a light should be expected to increase, and I would imagine the accordion gets worse and congestion gets worse. I wonder if anybody has studied this tradeoff.

Edit: it may be that people who drive a car with this feature overcome the delay by taking pre-emptive action (I have only driven a car like this as a rental), but it would still be interesting to see a study.
> none of this outrage would have taken place.

most certainly would have still taken place; no one cares about how it was done; what they care about it being able to make $$; and it was clearly going to not be as heavily prioritized without Altman (which is why MSFT embraced him and his engineers almost immediately).

> notified their employees and investors
they did notify their employees; they have fiduciary duty to investors as a nonprofit.
lying of any type is always grounds for termination. "consistently candid" is just a more PC phrase for lying.
Good idea. Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.

I'd like to suggest a chapter of two be devoted to not-yet-managers with management aspirations. What they should be aware of? What skills are important to develop? How to balance an obcession with shiny new tech objects with working on other skills that good managers depend on (e.g., comms that lack ambiquity).

(Tech) Managers often assend to the position and then are hit with a bad case of, "Now what?" And then they scramble. It not a good look.
Unions & regulation
logical move is to get better at splitting off their research and innovation into startups by licensing or funding employees who leave. Spinoff anything risky into an independent company so it can move faster and isn't slowed down by Google's risk aversion and bureaucracy. Basically what Microsoft did with OpenAI, give them cash and compute resources but have plausible deniability if things go wrong
Why do you (dang) always write a comment specifying that people can read more and even providing some links when it's clear that when you reach the bottom of the page you have to click "read more" to indeed read more. Isn't it a bit useless?
It's just a normal pattern. You also have dark pools. It's nothing shady, it's just intransparent economy.
They're already public, including the name map. Nothing difficult needs to happen other than to convince the general public -- and institutional support staff -- that SSNs are not private information which can be used to securely verify a person's identity.

The department could be one of those "wilderness" assignments where you send somebody you don't wanna fire but also don't want to have a big impact. A useful place to help someone develop their executive leadership skills, or keep those with really bad skills from wreaking havoc.
I don't know a lot about standards organisations. But the people who actually create the standards are not getting paid by ISO. So I don't know what expenses ISO has to cover other than the cost of publishing the standard itself, which in digital form should be very low.

In a corporate setting it might not be as big an issue, but as a private citizen who wants to read a standard document for educational purposes, paying upward of 100 bucks is fairly expensive, so this makes me a bit grumpy. I completely agree with your sentiment.
"It resets itself back on (by law) every time you restart the vehicle"

That's what internet searches and fuse pullers are for.

"but I guess I saved ~10-15 seconds of idling"

That's where the calculations get tricky. There's usually a time limit for which it's less efficient to stop the engine (about 4-7 seconds). So to calculate fuel savings, you actually should only count idle fuel rate times the number of seconds above that cutoff, then you also have to account for less efficient stops under that rate (maybe just subtract them from your seconds above so you get a net seconds beyond breakeven mark). I'm not sure any the systems track it that way, it's just how much overall time the car spent in the stopped mode.
Windmill is fantastic. It manages to cover so much ground i.e. airflow, prefect, retool, budibase but better
As charcircuit figured out, the username is/was `malware`. They deactivated it in 2018 without any explanation, and even my contacts at Github at the time couldn't quite figure out why it was happening.

My only thought was that it was during the MSFT acquisition due diligence, and my username was an unfortunate victim of whatever compliance requirements they had to satisfy.

It was my first hardware purchase, and I am so glad I got it. They keep adding functionality via firmware updates, so recently they added sample playback to it, along with granular synthesis.
I added a volca drum and a multi effect pedal to my hardware line up, so now I can head out to my local pub and jam out without needing a laptop with me, and the whole setup fits in an old messenger bag.
He probably has powerful connections beyond SV. He and Greg Brockman have been meeting heads of state and he has been fundraising in the Middle East recently. I wouldn't be surprised if he is sold as representing US interests, hence few dare to criticize him openly.

No. But if you are going to make a statement, it behooves you to fill it with substance.
I do not think it is a secret that most pharma companies are vehemently opposed to the drug pricing provisions in the inflation reduction act. I would be surprised if the lobbying spend across industry is not much more than $9M.
Silos and fiefdoms are normally seen as negative things. And that's not entirely wrong.

But they can also describe skunkworks/internal startup/etc. teams doing their own thing without a lot of interference or having to constantly coordinate with every other organization in the company.

It can go both ways.
I guess it depends on how you view work. I can dislike someone's work as a colleague, but like them as a person. And vice versa. Work is just work - it's not our entire life. And someone being bad at a job (even if we accept that this person is truly intrinsically incompetent, and not just a byproduct of a dysfunctional org, as is often the case) doesn't automatically mean, to me, that they have some personal moral failing or personality flaw.

So, in that vein, I think I'd hesitate to publicly embarrass someone merely for being bad at a job, since that crosses over to affecting their personal life. If someone asked me about that person in a professional context (to make a hiring decision, for example), I'd be frank about their weaknesses. But I don't think the whole world has to know about it.
It’s mainly for workflows but not for building rest endpoints?
Apple indeed holds a grudge.

Let's say a friend was fired from Apple for years ago and if you get an offer from Apple today, your offer letter may specifically mention him by name, stating you are explicitly not allowed to share any information with that person.

You are probably right, because once I got accepted in the network, they were able to get to talk to the Google MCM/Adsense support and within one week I got MCM approved and my Adsense account was reinstated. Hadn't they be there I would still be stuck.

Indeed, but you don't want to be putting EVs in the garage for folks who drive a few thousand miles a year (although those sales do help spinning up the manufacturing flywheel). You want to target the highest petroleum consumers and work your way down the long tail, at least until we reach a point where petroleum demand drops below a floor where the supply chain begins to collapse.
Outdated information, sorry: some reports suggest that at one point they had disallowed it on standard builds but allowed it on ESR, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

So, yes, you have to use a developer version, or a packaged version.

That said: What extensions, exactly, do you want to use on Firefox that aren't shipped on AMO? Other than the development of extensions themselves (for which it makes sense to use a developer version of Firefox), what is the use case?
Thank you - also why target someone who has been there for only 2 years.
Good thought! I haven't been rigorous about this yet, and that sounds like a tactical + practical next step. Anecdotally, I think I am currently churning most of the users. Do you have any thoughts on how many users would be a minimum threshold for a legit cohort analysis?

I will never buy a vehicle that shuts off the engine at idle. It is the dumbest most annoying misfeature ever.
Does being fast beyond certain threshold really matter for a workflow engine, though, especially given that many workflows have long-running tasks? What I find matters is multi-tenancy. That is, can a workflow system support as many jobs as a user desires, yet each job gets scheduled and executed as if it is the only one on the workflow engine. For instance, Amazon EC2 and EBS probably have millions of jobs and job queues running at any moment, yet each job has pretty predictable and stable startup delay and execution time. In contrast, each of Nomad and k8s has a global queue that sometimes gets stuck because of bad actors or too many pending jobs (I understand that an orchestrator is far more than just a workflow engine. I'm just contrasting the user experience).

What is a "super segment hybrid display"? Looks cool, has VFD vibes, but I assume it's just an OLED with an overlay or something based off in the Verge article "Most of the KO II’s parts are just off-the-shelf components, including the display"
It doesn't sound unreasonable to me. There are very few stop lights around here: the closest one is about 8 miles away and the next closest one is at the onramp to the interstate. It's quite easy to visit friends that are 20 miles away and not encounter a single light. Lots of stop signs though.
Total aside, but I recently purchased a .us domain name for the first time. I was on my phone and signing up with the Namecheap app. I thought it odd that it didn't ask for privacy protection, but I figured I'd quickly turn it on after the fact and didn't get around to it until later that night. I used our home phone as the phone number for the site. The next day we got no fewer than fifty spam phone calls, and the email address I offered was quickly inundated with over a hundred spam messages. It was absolutely nuts. Fortunately, I used an email alias and just turned it off. Likewise, I have a Callcentric VOIP number for the home, so I was able to add a "press six to continue" prompt, but I can't change that number without a lot of pain and I now no longer get the automated phone calls from the school (we still get them through the app). Since then, the call volume has dropped off, but I can see in the logs that we still get several per day.

After all of that I learned that privacy protection is not available for .us domains. No wonder they're so cheap.

A long way of saying, if you sign up for a .us domain, definitely do not give them your real information.
No need for an authority, it can be a DIY/opt-in sort of thing. If somebody came up to you and presented you with some money that had metadata re: how it was earned, you'd have to decide whether to accept it, so it would be up to you to decide if that endeavor was one you wanted to align yourself with.

If you make that call in a way that disagrees with your wider community, you may end up in a situation where you can't find anyone else who will accept that money, so I expect some degree of consensus will emerge.

Making that judgement call on every transaction would be tedious, so I imagine organizations would form which are trusted to make that call, and then you'd sort of "subscribe" your wallet to their decisions so that you don't have to think about it all the time.

As for regulatory capture, if such an organization stopped aligning with your interests, you could just unsubscribe from their judgements and either do it yourself or form a competing one.
Agreed. It's naive to think that an decision this unpopular somehow wouldn't have resulted in dissent and fracturing if only they had given it a better explanation and dotted more i's.

Imagine arguing this in another context: "Man, if only the Supreme Court had clearly articulated its reasoning in overturning Roe v Wade, there wouldn't have been all this outrage over it."

(I'm happy to accept that there's plenty of room for avoiding some of the damage, like the torrents of observers thinking "these board members clearly don't know what they're doing".)
A 18-year veteran like OP shouldn't be complaining about their manager's lack of vision ; they should have realised by now that it's also their job to enact the vision. He was probably paid too much to behave as a passenger.
