The idea of a reactive framework is that every interface component is either an event creator with no representation and that can update your application state, or an state viewer that has no inputs but can represent your state.

It's decoupling those two that brings all the power.

But the idea doesn't represent at all the web. So react is a mess of complex code trying to make the things you can create on the web behave like stateless pure components. Yet, it mostly works, and the react does indeed implement the idea that the interface is a pure functional transformation of the application state. (But I do disagree on claiming this the "entire idea", it's half of it at most.)
I've given up on 'scientific' nutritional advice and now go with my intuition informed by my personal observations. What I have observed is that people who eat lots of carbs seem to get fat, people who eat lots of processed foods look terrible all around, people who are vegan tend to look like cancer patients, people who are vegetarian but also eat eggs and/or fish look reasonably healthy, and people who eat lots of roasted meat, vegetables and eggs seem to have the best outcomes.
They've finally conceded and re-implemented the original task bar method of "let's actually label the icons in your taskbar so you have some idea of what you're actually clicking on before you click it".

You have to re-enable it in taskbar settings, but it's FINALLY there to be enabled again.

I use a program called StartIsBack to try and return to a more "classic" shell experience, but Windows has done such a good job at tying so much to their shell that from what I hear it's close to impossible to do certain things anymore.

For those interested the original "Turing test" was put forward in his paper "A. M. Turing (1950) Computing Machinery and Intelligence" which is available here https://redirect.cs.umbc.edu/courses/471/papers/turing.pdf

I tried the first three example questions from that on ChatGPT 4 and it kind of gave itself away by being too quick and helpful.

eg. Turing's example of a question and possible answer was

Q: Please write me a sonnet on the subject of the Forth Bridge.

A : Count me out on this one. I never could write poetry

Whereas GPT4 knocked out a sonnet in about 1 second.

I think a GPT4 like model trained to appear like a human would have a reasonable chance and fooling people.
I feel like the pointer stuff you could handle safely in a modern language. Because I think pointer and array notation are convertible so one isn't scarier than the other.

But yeah not being able to tag pointers as 'can't be null' and have the compiler enforce that ignores everything we've learned in the last 40 years. You shouldn't be able to pass a potentially null pointer to a routine that can't deal with it. You end up with code finding a null pointer without any context that tells it what to do with that. Or it panics.
> Art isn't an easier problem than math.

In a way it is, in a way it isn't. You have to remember what is easy for machine isn't going to correlate to what is easy for us humans. Look at AI art. Closely. No, closer than that. All the detail is fucked up. Not just the hands, but the tiniest of things. Strokes, lighting, reflections, and consistency, and all that. But can I turn my friend into a convincing werewolf? Yes. Can I turn my cat into a human or Wonder Woman? No. The system isn't a "fancy copier" but it is a compression algorithm and the aforementioned tasks were only possible because lots of work training LoRAs, textual inversions, control nets, and so on (you could seriously improve GANs, VAEs, hell, even Boltzman Machines could probably do pretty well were any of these given the same research investment that diffusion has received. GANs come close but nuances like GANs having a magnitude fewer parameters).

But let's look at math, can I consistently add numbers? No. The problem is that in math, all those tiny intricate details matter. Not only that, they matter at every single step. The thing here is that these are still pattern recognition machines. But they aren't generalized machines. You can't really derive out all of math from probability distributions (or at least cleanly, but still not convinced you can). The thing is that for math to work in AI we have to address the elephants in the room: math. Yeah, math. ML people don't like it. But we gotta address the axioms in the room that we're operating under. How do we move on from machines operating on manifolds? How do we make it so data are not distributional? How do we move away from a number of unmentioned axioms remains a large open problem in AI research. One that does not get anywhere serious enough of a conversation, especially within the community. Sure, maybe transformer circuits can learn some addition by learning how to do FFTs and add in the FFT space, but you're not going to get to Abstract Algebra that way. Ideally the AI can solve problems that have no algorithms, pun intended.

The entire point of diet advice and nutritional science is trying to find out what "in moderation" means for different foods. The amount of donuts that is moderate and the amount of broccoli that is moderate are not equal.

I don't really disagree with anything you said, but I would suggest that this kind of thinking is largely at the root of a lot of society's problems. Big corporations have become almost as powerful as governments in many respects. They are integral to our lives in a myriad of was we probably don't even notice. Yet we don't just allow them to be completely amoral, we expect them to behave that way, almost demand that they do.

The result is that we have a lot of amoral institutions playing a key role in our society.

I switched from Plex to jellyfin because the Plex Android TV app couldn't play 4K video, while VLC and jellyfin could do so reliably on the same device. All transcoding was disabled, so I know it was a client issue.

Jellyfish may not have some nicer finishes such as trailer fetching or better correlation of collections, but it's a reliable navigator of my media library.

Arguably, adults are worth protecting as well. A lot of marketing and even design intent for adult products is also extremely misleading and intentionally designed to prey on our collective fallibility. In that sense, it's at the very least unethical, and maybe should be illegal. We have some laws about truth-in-advertising, but they're very weak in a lot of scenarios.
I don't know about you, but my Facebook is littered with every day pedophilia, mostly generated and edited photo/video shorts with literally children doing erotic dancing in prostitute clothing. I don't know, did I click on something wrong? Some ads lead to obviously adult pay-per-view accounts on third party sites - you're a click away from porn. Many posts, appearing for some reason clustered - I guess when their advertiser's budget allows - are Russian propaganda with armies of bots liking posts about "how great Motherland Russia is". And no, blocking, disabling and going out of my way to tell Facebook I don't like this content and that I'm here only for astronomical communities doesn't help at all. Being a Ukrainian father living abroad, this not only irritates the hell out of me, but makes me deeply sad about teenagers encountering all this crap. This is capitalizing on children vulnerabilities. This is making money on the propaganda of terrorism. I think Facebook should burn in hell, and I wish good communities, whatever is left, would move out of there and find a new home ASAP.
It's such baffling UX to show just the first Tweet in a thread with no indication that others exist or that they could be accessed by creating an account. What is the purpose of this? Site just seems broken if you've never visited before.

Well, good thing that video games aren't limited to what existed in a 1970s arcade, then.
In the video interview on the page they said that it’s something like 25 dB. So technically it’s audible to humans too, it’s just low enough that no one really cares.
It's a big part of the country's history; the project was a key bargaining chip to get BC to join Canada. Development started with the first prime minister and the actual construction was incredibly expensive and filled with controversy over bribes and exploding construction costs, causing gov turnover and bringing the federal gov into significant financial risk a few times. But they did push onward to completion and it became the core pathway for the further settlement of western Canada, which was instrumental to the country's expansion. Nowadays it's primarily a freight railway, the passenger traffic is very minimal and tickets are very expensive; it's more of a tourism attraction than practical method of passenger transport.
That’s not a fair statement at all. A writer isn’t a computer expert, and shouldn’t have to be. Google Docs specifically positions itself as a product that takes care of all the data handling for you, and they market that fact quite heavily.

Part of the problem is that they maybe work too well. A lot of particle theory is model fitting without probiding us new insights into a possible underlying reality. Or something that would force a paradigm shift. Real evidence of something completely contradictive to our existing theories would be a dream come true.

Well as long as you put in the effort and tried hard, lying is perfectly morally acceptable.

If they dont have a patent on this thing then I would be very surprised that they are shouting this loudly about it.
The server side style of MVC you describe is a far stretch from how MVC is practiced in retained-mode UI frameworks like UIKit, Cocoa, or Backbone. It’s possible to make this style work fine with careful design and planning; Apple built web versions of Pages and Keynote using SproutCore (which evolved into Ember?) in 2013-era.

In fact back then, everyone’s big app was MVC - usually Backbone. I worked on Airbnb’s host-side web app called “Manage Listing”, it had probably 30+ models, 150+ views, 100+ controllers in Backbone. There were many bugs in this scale of app around making sure the DOM reflected the latest change to some model. the engineering team regarded the more complicated screens as a nightmare to maintain in our fast paced environment with many teams touching the code.

Engineers at Airbnb started to adopt React as a solution to the problems we all experienced with MVC - not because it was a “hot new thing”. When React came out, it was widely regarded as weird - it was more like “eww, this smells of PHP and needs a weird compiler, but pure function of state is a lot better than fiddling DOM manually…”. Eventually we replaced Manage Listing backbone views with React components one by one until there was no backbone left.

React is still kinda weird but it does solve this problem the best out of the modern frameworks. It’s happy to over-render by default and prefers a correct DOM-for-state over everything else. It’s clear thought that the mental models popularized by React are worth it - now Apple and Google are switching to the React model in their own frameworks.
This has also been my observation. I am convinced at this point that a diet that is 95% beef, fish, and eggs is the optimal diet for humans.

I should make responsible decisions as an adult, but it's still fair to call that grocery store's actions unethical, and that maybe they should be regulated if they can't be ethical on their own.
I too remember building interactive web sites with jQuery. It was never fun creating, for instance, an interactive list view where each item can be modified in client state and new items can be added. This was the problem for which React provided a major "Aha!" moment.
I've seen jellyfin come up a lot in these conversations. Curious to hear some opinions on my situation.

I've been doing the self-host Plex server thing since long before it was anything else (late aughts). I don't use it for anything else. While I'm all for switching to something else, my tolerance to level of effort is quite low so inertia has been the thing keeping me on Plex.

How quick & easy would it be to convert to something like jellyfin for self hosting?

Potential gotchas: in terms of tech stack I run the server on a Synology NAS so would need something that runs there. And 99% of my streaming is to Roku sticks, so there'd need to be an app there.
The PS5 uses a centrifugal blower rather than an axial fan. Blowers can push air effectively through restrictive heatsinks and vents, but at the cost of greater turbulence and therefore noise. The Xbox Series X/S consoles use axial fans that move a lot of air at low RPMs; this requires large intake and exhaust vents and an optimised internal layout, because the flow rate of an axial fan falls rapidly as static pressure increases.

The PS5 is fairly loud, but the noise is quite directional - it's much louder from the rear than the front. By keeping all of the vents on the front and rear of the console, it can work effectively inside a TV cabinet or media center that would suffocate an Xbox. It's not the set of tradeoffs I would have preferred, but it isn't a thoughtless design.

> Revealed preferences

I don't think they can really claim revealed preferences because Apple never sold a product that was identical except for the headphone jack and battery life. Of course people are going to buy the better new one. Apple could have just sold two versions, one without the jack, with a bigger battery, and one without, and a smaller battery. That would be massively more expensive for Apple to do, but it's not like Apple isn't swimming in ridiculously giant piles of money.
The LLM is just fancy autocomplete. You are latching on to the LLM aspect, not the autocomplete aspect, while the latter is the important part. The LLM literally just does a little more than a traditional autocomplete in real life. I said it because it's easy for people to understand what "copilot" actually does and I (wrongly) assumed people didn't go crazy when you mentioned it.

Ah yes, openCV at one time made ImageMagick easier to use, and could be compiled in C. There were even projects focused on transparent fpga hardware acceleration for video streams.

Now, it is a C++ dependency nightmare with conflicting documentation of basic data structures, version specific bugs, and hidden impossible-to-license patents.

It is a cautionary tale of allowing a Second-system effect to twist a project into a set of use-cases for a smaller subset of users.

The core issue was not major version releases, but constant breaking library changes in sub dot version releases. Thus, they turned most of the user-base into full time Beta testers.

They should have forked the library at 4, but knew no one would change what already worked. =)
I set up a Jellyfin instance on a surplus 1L PC a few months ago. It honestly works great. I use the Roku and Android apps. No reason to use Plex anymore.

I even set up a Raspberry Pi at my mother in law's house which exposed my Jellyfin instance on her LAN via Tailscale and an nginx reverse proxy, it works flawlessly.
I highly doubt that most of Disney's fan base is actually fed up because their movies aren't "edgy" enough. Perhaps some of the Lucasfilm fans, but Kathleen Kennedy (the target of the South Park ribbing), seems to be doing fine. I believe at least one of her Star Wars movies is the 2nd highest grossing Star Wars movie ever.
This reminds me of the party game Telestrations where players go back and forth between drawing and writing what they see. It's hilarious to see the result because you anticipate what the next drawing will be while reading the prompt.

I'd love to see an alternative viewing mode here which shows the image and the following prompt. Then you need to click a button to reveal the next image. This allows you to picture in your mind what the image might like while reading the prompt.

Thanks for making this fun little app!

Update: I just realized you can get this effect by going into mobile mode (or resizing the window). You can then scroll down to see the image after reading the prompt.

Thanks for illustrating the point I was trying to make. Sure any government could "nuke itself" or kill you in easy ways, but if you look at Vietnam or Afghanistan or Iraq I think you realize what an armed resistance that believes is fighting for their home can do, and how long they can last. Without guns this changes the balance quite a bit.
