I don't care what the limit is unless it's consistently applied.

My least favorite though no limit + soft wrapping, the philosophy being the code adapts to the user, but in actuality means the file looks completely different based on your monitor and setup removing visual aid to code navigation and familiarity.
Furthermore this method can be scaled up to cover more and more test images, with a modest increase of prefix bits
>Your definition of stolen goods is circular

No, it's not circular. A good is a stolen good if it has been stolen. That's not circular. There's a distinction between something being stolen and something being a stolen good, and the definition of the latter rests upon the definition of the former. I didn't define "stealing" because I didn't think it was necessary, as I thought we all know what it means. But it seems we actually don't agree on what "stealing" means. I think you "steal" something if you remove someone's possession of an item without their permission. If there's such a thing as agreement between two parties that if violated can void one of the parties rights to exploit an item then that's not stealing. When you purchase something you acquiring complete ownership over the thing. If there's strings attached that can turn the purchase into a "theft" then it's not a purchase. Perhaps it's a lease of some kind.

>As for control, it is decidedly not a fundamental part of ownership. You are not, for example, able to control driving your car into another person willfully, but you do still "own" your car.

You're using control in a different sense than I. What I mean is that you can decide what to do with the object as you like, with regards to the object itself. No, you can't drive your car anywhere you like, but you can sell or gift your car to anyone you like, and you destroy it you like, or you can leave it parked forever if you like. None of these are things you can do with a car you don't own, are they?

>You, knowing that Bob obtained the secret by lying to Steve, are complicit in Bob's lie, making you morally culpable.

Well, let's stick to one thing at a time, eh? If you have yet to convince me that my behavior is unethical, much less are you going to convince me that it's immoral.

>What it boils down to is the ethical obligation a person has to do what they said they would do.

I don't think a person has an ethical obligation to keep promises that are based on unethical grounds. Such as attaching strings to things that you sell. If you *sell* me a car and make me sign a contract that says I can't gift it to whoever I please, you bet I'm going to do whatever I please. Your contract is nonsensical and opposite to the notion of property. If you sell me something you relinquish all rights to the thing you sell me and acknowledge my right to do as I please with it. If you don't relinquish those rights then you can't call it a sale, and you have to price the transaction accordingly.

>This is obviously complicated by the infinitely reproducible nature of digital goods, hence why I said you don't care much for capitalism if you don't agree with this notion, as capitalism introduces the concept of artificial scarcity to protect Steve's incentives to continue to produce secrets. There are many arguments suggesting that Steve would produce secrets regardless of incentive, but for a capitalist, the protection of the monopoly is paramount.

If you want to say that capitalism cannot exist without intellectual property rights then I'll have to ask you to argue for it.

Yes, I agree that enforcement of moral norms requires setting arbitrary limits on behavior that aren't necessarily objectively defensible. Every law and ban regarding the dissemination of goods and services involves a slightly illogical compromise between a partially elected moral authority and the citizenry.

There isn't really a clear answer to your questions about whether or not "we" would continue to censor video games, popular media, and TV shows if limits were introduced about what minors can see on the internet. It would depend on the compromise reached between the citizenry and the enforcement agency that tasked with enforcing the bans. In some regards, I feel that American life is far too censored and supervised, but in others I feel that it is far too liberated and unrestricted. I happen to believe that there should be more content limitations on entertainment and social media, and less content limitations on political speech. If I were ever to meet with a large group of people who shared my beliefs, we would probably take political action to enforce our will for society.

I suppose that doesn't really prove or disprove your assertion that censorship laws would inevitably lead to more extreme censorship, but I think it's important to recognize that there are already many and forced censorship laws in the US, and altering them isn't really the craziest thing.

Enough for what, to survive? Not talking about that, but I'll put it this way: I would absolutely never order delivery if e-scooter radius was the limit. Even the restaurants that are good and well-priced near me aren't suitable for delivery.

And delivery is already very rare for me since my wife and I will either cook or go out unless we're very sick or something. Without delivery, we'd just deal with it and it'd kinda suck.

Self driving barely works in the US as it is. Go to a country where there are billions of people and shoddy infrastructure. Those places will take even longer to get self driving cars. And as it is now, those places are overcrowded with vehicles, and many of them have the majority of people on scooters and motorbikes. If all those people end up in cars, it'll be the end of those places, as congestion will be completely unbearable. There just isn't room for more cars in most places around the world. So I'm not sure how self driving cars will end all accidents world wide, other than clogging the roads up so badly, that nobody will want to go anywhere.

Agree. An unreturned laptop that's more than a couple of years old is not worth the effort to chase down (unless maybe it was something very high-spec). The bigger worry would be any remote access to company resources that is configured on the laptop, but hopefully you've been smart enough to be able to revoke that without access to the remote device.

> it's hard to imagine a line between "it is possible to build a computer capable of computing <X>" and "it is expensive, on the scale of reasonably-advanced civilizations, to build a computer capable of computing <X>."

Well it’s not so much about whether there is a line but what the probability distributions are and whether it continues to make sense to think that of all sentient beings the majority are likely simulated.

And while I personally get the argument you and the parent post make, I think it’s worthwhile highlighting that it’s likely not a simple matter of whether it’s possible and that the biases/utopianism that facilitate making that leap are also factors and worth making explicit.

Personally, I find it hard to conclude that a sufficiently advanced civilisation would necessarily be concerned with running so many simulations when there are probably a number of things they could spend time on that we can think of and many more we can’t because we’re not that advanced.
Those last two headlines seem quite factual. The second headline, AFAIK the Starship was not expected to explode at all, thus the accolade of "reaches space", "but explodes moments later" seems to be pretty accurate & fair. That is what happened.

The justification given for copyright law is typically to "promote the arts". In a situation where they refuse to sell the product, that justification is essentially gone.

In the case of simple appliances like the printer, there is just no actual need to innovate. It's like saying the hammer is an imperfect tool for hitting nails. There is nothing about the hammer that requires innovation because its intended purpose is extremely well defined and exceedingly simple. The same is true for printers, at least for generic home use. Your kid needs to print out their research paper before they turn it into their teacher tomorrow, there is no point between hitting the Print icon in MS Word and the paper exiting the machine with content on it that needs streamlining anymore.

However, if you're thinking I missed the point, that it's sometimes better to just... not innovate, you're mistaken. I agree with it, but there are absolutely areas where the intended purpose is not well defined or simplistic. Innovation is needed, it just takes experience to know where and when to innovate.
so whats your point? are you talking about me?

The medical certificate usually has an immediate cause and a spot to write underlying causes. It goes to the local government and is used for things like life insurance, lawsuits, etc.

If there’s a concern at the policy level, usually you’d have a separate monitoring system.

Driving policy with population stats is not really the gold standard, in spite of what was communicated to the public during the pandemic. Usually you’d want to run some kind of controlled experiment or very rigorous observational study. That’s where the bulk of the success stories in medicine have come from historically.

Nice app and writeup - but she won't have a radar - she'll have an app that displays the positions of airplanes. A true radar needs to transmit and receive.

The SDR is still just listening to the telemetry from the plane, which they transmit all the time for this ADS mode.

I read an article about masking and airplanes that seemed reasonable:

https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2022/07/covid-omi...

The basic advice is to unmask when it is okay to use your laptop. The plane is cruising and cabin air is completely exchanged with outside air every 2 minutes. The biggest risk, according to the article, is when the plane is on the ground.
> If the number representation is encoded outside the 64 bits then you have removed the 64 bit restriction.

The explanation for how to interpret the 64 bit string is always outside of the 64 bit string. It's going to be tough to compare how big two explanations are since that's going to depend a lot on what each person considers to be a sufficient explanation.

I'm personally quite rusty on lambda calculus, and from glancing at the author's papers about lambda calculus encodings I suspect it will take a rather large number of bytes to represent an explanation that will make it through my thick skull!
That it be and applies to me. And countless others. Oh the drudge.

Companies are willing to pay more money to rent a computer from AWS than to send a computer to their employee, because of the risk the employee won't send it back. It doesn't actually make economic sense but it tickles their sense of "fairness" that these workers shouldn't get any more than absolutely necessary.
The person who invented the math we use every day in aes-gcm died in a duel and participated in the french revolution. That's pretty wild.

I noticed something similar: no nosebleeds. I have only taken a few flights in the last several years though and I can't rule out that maybe the 737 MAX has a more humid interior atmosphere or something like that. But before I started wearing masks on airplanes I used to shoot saline spray up my nostrils every hour to keep the nosebleeds away.

But if you are in some kind of competitive market where the labor cost has the potential to erase your margins (and therefore return on the project investment) then I don't think it makes sense in this globalized economy to base in Sweden.

Twitter was definitely always bad, but it's also definitely worse now. There are no adults in the room, it's obvious. I'm not sure I would describe the unique amalgamation of neo-fascists and bots that swarm every post on there now as political dissidents who finally have a crumb of a voice.

Sure. That said, the cost / benefit tradeoffs often seem pretty good for AWS. The cost is low enough to other costs on a project that gain on velocity is worth it. In others gains on reliability, maintenance savings etc.

Ended up doing a small on-prem solution. VMWare for 6 CPUs x 32 cores = 192 cores runs about $3K/year for the software side which is a good deal to get started. That leaves about $240K/year or so to cover other costs. Not a slam dunk necessarily, but the on-prem store with vmware is not unreasonable.

In Reddit over the past 2ish years you can find accounts that only contain posts that have been posted on other accounts. They are generally used in context, so they are difficult to see by themselves. I only saw it when I saw the exact same comment 3 times in a thread, and it wasn't stupid repeated quips. Instead looking at each of the 3 accounts and Googling each of the posts in the accounts show the original sentence had been used in the past.

They weren't even bad comments. They fit in to the discussion, yet seeing it cheapened the experience.

Kind of a worldbuilding stackexchange response, yet other reasons aliens might not interact (from a "they exist" perspective).

Hitchhiker's Guide - We're just not very interesting. The aliens exist, have noticed the Earth, yet don't care, because we don't really do much from a galactic perspective. Mostly Harmless.

Star Trek - The aliens exist, yet have some external reason to not interact, like a diplomatic treaty.

Star Wars - The aliens exist, there's just too many other aliens to deal with already (Republic). The situation external to Earth is some kind of massive bureaucracy that makes doing much other than dealing with the bureaucracy nearly unmanageable.

Culture Novels - The aliens exist, yet don't interact because we're the equivalent of barbarous housepets from their perspective.

Forever War - The aliens exist, may have noticed, they're just too busy fighting some really long term war with each other to care.

Stargate - The aliens exist, just view the Earth as a non-threatening farm to be harvested eventually.

The Algebraist - Aliens exist, yet the most common form is just really weird from a human perspective (like gaseous objects in cloud giants). Flesh bipeds are not all that interesting, or perhaps discounted because "intelligence only exists in these forms."

Dragon Ball Z or Warhammer 40k - Aliens exist, yet the Earth is boring. It's mostly calm bickering a lot of the time. Where are the enormous battles and massive weapons? No titanic fights that lay waste to the surface?

There's actually a somewhat reasonable analogy to human cognitive processes here, I think, in the sense that humans tend to form concepts defined by their connectivity to other concepts (c.f. Ferdinand de Saussure & structuralism).

Human brains are also a "black box" in the sense that you can't scan/dissect one to build a concept graph.

Neural nets do seem to have some sort of emergent structural concept graph, in the case of LLMs it's largely informed by human language (because that's what they're trained on.) To an extent, we can observe this empirically through their output even if the first principles are opaque.
