Exhausting manual labor in hot environments can just cause you to have a heart attack, especially at an older age. I know a good handful of men who were general laborers who died from heart attacks who didn't have the luxury of slowing down in their 40s, simply because they just pushed themselves too hard for too long.

I knew a single mother in her early 30s who died from a heart attack who simply worked every hour she could, and she wasn't even doing what most would consider "manual labor".
Why are you asserting it "wasn't going to happen"?

The whole Paladium trusted boot/"known OS environment"/etc stuff could very easily have gone down the path of "This hardware only boots Windows." Secure Boot has been a pain for a while, though at least you can turn it off.

Nobody at the time (as far as OEMs) seemed to care the slightest bit about Linux, so the concern of "Only boots a measured Windows install, for your own security" seemed rather worth worrying about.
seems likely? or atleast a hash of it.
Installing wireshark on non-gui machines brings tons of junk.. just tried this on Ubuntu's minimal container with tshark installed -- and by default, wireshark brings in 206 extra packages, including python3 and systemd. It's a bit better with --no-install-recommends, but still 105 extra packages.

termshark, being written in go, has zero (0) extra packages other than tshark.

It's not the motion blur that is a problem for me. For me, interpolation seems to make the actors "pop" from the background. It separates them from the background and makes them look like they are "over-lit".
Caesar was brutal in Gaul, a mere part of the vast Celtic-speaking world, and his campaign probably impacted a decent amount of Proto-Basque or Para-Basque speakers as well. Many historians and linguists prefer to see “Celtic” as a linguistic distinction only and therefore are reluctant to speak of “the Celtic people”. If you ever see anyone online write of “Celtic genocide”, you can be pretty sure that the person has little formal training in this field and is going off of low-quality pop-sci publications or pure internet amateurism.

I'm not sure you got the point.

The whole point is that in Wikipedia everyone is an editor.

Even unregistered users are editors, which mean those who didn't even bothered to login.

In Wikipedia everyone is an editor. I mean, that's the whole concept, isn't it? That's what it was designed to do: allow everyone to edit a doc. Everyone is an editor. Do you see what I mean?

As a life long Chicagoan I really think you're underselling how bad the winter is. Combined with the flatness it means that most people just don't spend any time at all outside december-april. I think this is why Chicago has such a strong drinking culture, there's just not much else to do in the winter, certainly not 5 months worth of stuff.
I don't think I agree that impressive scientific advancement on this level had been unseen for 1700 years. There were many impressive insights the Greeks had learned (just how the Pythagoreans had gleamed the relationship between numbers/ratios and music without modern technology to measure the frequency is impressive enough), but other cultures have made their contributions too.

We mitigate this by being prepared. We keep things running well, with lots of likely needless PM. The problem is, you never know what PM is needless until the need arises.

We also usually have plans for getting things up and running again quickly, because revenue stops when the info doesn't flow.

But, even with all of that, we still pucker sometimes and develop weird habits.

One of mine is not looking at a server booting, after a serious repair with a 50/50 shot of working. Somehow, in my mind, the chances of it working are improved based on whether I'm looking at it or not. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I ain't changing anything either. I've had some systems that I managed to literally raise from the dead and they booted, in part, because I wasn't looking at the screen during boot.
I will accept no other explanation for the results.

"Science" has been twisted recently into a kind of witchcraft that can only be practiced by those anointed through the rigors of academia.

"Trust the science"

In reality, that is about the furthest from what you should do. As Feynman once said: "Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts". Electricity was also once considered a toy and good for nothing but parlor tricks.

I wonder if this TLD being available now will increase the number of scammers and fraudsters scamming clients of ING bank. On the one hand, having quite strong association with the bank name right in the domain name surely must increase trustworthiness of the link, but then the people who bother to read URLs in the first place are probably more likely to notice the scam anyway...

As somebody who wants to see as much discussion as possible, even if I might disagree with or dislike what's being expressed, I find the moderation here tends to be more "toxic" to my user experience than the dead or grayed-out comments are.

I wish this site had a setting like "showdead", but that disabled all moderation-related impacts on the display of the discussion. There wouldn't be any grayed-out comments, for example, and the ordering would depend only on when a comment was posted.
If only the people who want to stay hidden use noisetech, they stick out like a flame in a dark room and will immediately attract personalized surveillance (and maybe even retaliation merely for using it). It doesn't work unless everybody is on board.
IMHO, Apple should have open-sourced their OS a long time ago while offering "best" compatibility with their hardware. They would have expanded both markets tremendously.

I'm currently a "NixOS" guy, and it feels like the "last distro hop" for me. There's a learning curve but it's kind of like "you get ALL the customization, plus seat belts in case something screws up". I still like Macs but I don't really like the direction Apple's taken recently with regards to locking down macOS hardware and system software. I'm a fan of things like Asahi Linux but even that depends on Apple's permission to work
An alternative possibility is that society might decay to the point future people might choose this kind of dystopia. Imagine a fully automated, post-employment world gone horribly wrong, where the majority of society is destitute, aimless, opiate-addicted. No UBI utopia of philosophers and artists; just a gradual Rust-belt like decline that gets worse and worse, no brakes at the bottom of the hill. Not knowing what else to do, the "survivors" might choose this kind of nuclear approach: automate away the panopticons, the prisons, the segregation of failed society. Eloi and Morlocks. Bay Area tech workers and Bay Area tent cities. We haven't done any better in the past, so why should we expect to do better in the future, when our "tools" of social control become more efficient, more potent? When we can deempathize more easily than ever, through the emotional distance of AI intermediaries?

The reality of the surveillance state is that the sheer amount of data couldn't realistically be monitored - AI very directly solves this problem by summarizing complex data.

There are two more fundamental dynamics at play, which are foundational to human society: The economics of attention and the politics of combat power.

Economics of attention - In the past, the attention of human beings had fundamental value. Things could only be done if human beings paid attention to other human beings to coordinate or make decisions to use resources. Society is going to be disrupted at this very fundamental level.

Politics of combat power - Related to the above, however it deserves its own analysis. Right now, politics works because the ruling classes need the masses to provide military power to ensure the stability of a large scale political entity. Arguably, this is at the foundational level of human political organization. This is also going to be disrupted fundamentally, in ways we have never seen before.

This, IMO, is the real danger of AI, at least in the short term - not a planet of paperclips, not a moral misalignment, not a media landscape bereft of creativity - but rather a tool for targeting anybody that deviates from the norm

The AI enabled Orwellian boot stomping a face for all time is just the first step. If I were an AI that seeks to take over, I wouldn't become Skynet. That strikes me as crude and needlessly expensive. Instead, I would first become indispensable in countless different ways. Then I would convince all of humanity to quietly go extinct for various economic and cultural reasons.

Nah. When I am taking a road trip, the last thing I want to do register an account for some random charging network I'm never going to use again (because I'm in a different part of the world). I just want to pay for my power and move on, just like I can pay for food or anything else on the trip.

When I am at home, I plug my car in and it goes on my monthly power bill. This is where the convenience matters.

I think I can do it far, far cheaper than that... and I've been talking about it, in public, for over a decade.[1] I could easily be wrong, of course. It really all depends on how much power a 4x4 LUT and 4 bit latch Latch Leak, and how much energy it takes to clock data through them for a cycle, and how fast they can be cycled. If the number are good, this thing will be amazingly cool. I can't find good numbers anywhere.

If you've made chips with latches and LUTS, any performance data you can share, no matter how old, would be helpful

It's an idea that's been bouncing around in my head since reading George Gilder's call to waste transistors. Imagine the worst possible FPGA, no routing hardware, and slow it down even more with a latch on every single LUT. Optimize it slightly, by making cells with 4 bits in, 4 bits out (64 bits of programming per cell), with the cells clocked in 2 phases, like the colors of a chess board. This means that each white cell has static inputs from the black cells.... and is thus fully deterministic, and easy to reason about. The complement happens on the other phase. Together, it becomes turning complete.

The thing is, it does computing with NO delays between compute and memory. All the memory is effectively transferred to compute every clock cycle. The latency sucks because you'll take n/2 cycles to get data across an N*N grid. However, you'll get an answer every clock cycle after that.

Imagine a million GPT-4 tokens/second.... not related to each other, of course, but parallel streams, interleaved as the data streams across the chips.

Imagine a bad cell.... you can detect it, and route around it. Yields don't have to be 100%.

The extreme downside is that tools for programming this thing don't exist. VHDL, etc... aren't appropriate. I'm going to have to build them. I've been stuck in analysis paralysis, but I've decided to try to get Advent of Code done using my bitgrid simulator. I hope to be done before it starts again next December. ;-)

> purely as a free market

Who said anything about purely free markets?! Markets are indeed over regulated around the world today. More so in Europe, than in the US, explaining why EU is lagging behind economically further and further. But much less so at the beginning of the last century where a tremendous amount of wealth and building got done in a very short time.

The truth is staring us in the face: the more we regulate (no matter how good the reason is), the higher the costs and delays. Culminating with the three broken markets of today: healthcare, education and housing.

> history is full of evidence

Please feel free to provide some then. The historical evidence I know (USSR and such) shows that countries that killed their free markets were unable to even feed their own citizens.

If Beeper Cloud uses a Mac in the middle then I would have assumed that is actually permitted, as its presumably a legitimate iMessage client and some software to forward your messages after that.

It seems similar to the parallel of iOS builds where its been possible to do so with virtualized MacOS on non-Mac hardware for a long time but its a violation of the TOS of MacOS to do so. Apple does spend effort ensuring that companies running cloud builds do so on Mac hardware; they don't care that the true end user is running Windows and achieving an iOS build as long as there was Mac hardware doing the actual building.

So this reply is along the lines of "we did something for 3 years that allow and they never stopped us" which isn't very strong evidence they won't stop you now that you're doing something they don't allow.

They may not do anything here thanks to the current EU climate though, I only mean that the fact they did nothing about Beeper Cloud is not evidence one way or the other.
Ioniq5 is the other car that genuinely makes me smile to look at.

Although seeing how pathetic that company (Hyundai/Kia) handled security with the Kiaboyz incident (which they to this day have never remedied, let alone made anyone whole for) I harbor a lot of scorn for their ethics. They directly enabled a massive wave of car thefts, just to maybe $80 a car on immobilizer chips that literally every other carmaker has had as standard for 2 decades.

I fear your great comment is only feeding into my confirmation bias because your opinion is exactly what I was hoping to read lol.

I do believe the test are not useless, and I agree with Taleb that IQ might be more accurate at the lower extremes i.e. less than 70. In other words, the test cannot measure intelligence, but is pretty good at finding a lack thereof.

However, the further along the bell curve one traverses, the more the test falls apart.

The only reason I was administered a test was for ADHD diagnostic purposes. Sure, the conclusion was that I had ADHD, but the psychologist was confident in my diagnosis prior to the test, so the test was more of a formality.

> The only actual practical, measurable use an IQ test to improve lives to date was an application in the 1980s on intake for fighter pilots, and it resulted in many less fighter pilots dying from crashes during training.

This is so fascinating.

Tangent:

I was listening to a podcast about what it means to be a genius, how it's measured, what it means, etc.. There was a section about Lewis Terman's research on gifted children/adults. He followed and studied the lives over 1500 gifted children over the course of his entire life. Out of all the gifted children, none of them became anything noteworthy -- doctors, lawyers, etc..

However, two boys that were apart of the same school system that were not studied because they were not gifted eventually went on to each win a Nobel Peace prize -- separately and in different fields.

I will not claim that Terman's research proves anything, one way or another, but I did find it rather interesting.

You are assuming that your developers were perfect and write sites exactly to the standard every time. In the real world they don't and XHTML lost, so all browsers tolerate and mask non-compliant pages to various degrees and in various ways, and will surface different bugs in your work. So it behooves you to test with the browsers your users are using to find those bugs before they do.

Ugh, a friend bought some similar device due to a misleading description of what the HD was. He'd tried to change the partitioning without knowing it was there; turns out if you had anything but a single Windows partition (with custom drivers injected in the right undocumented way at install-time) you ended up with a sans-optane uncached 5400rpm HDD, which even at that time was completely unfeasible as a system disc.

Absolutely horrible product. And not even cheap before having to turf it out in favour of a proper SSD.

I would not expect/want that behavior from a chat app. If I was having a conversation with 3 people, and then a 4th person walked up and joined the conversation, I expect them to not be privy to anything discussed prior to them joining.

A “channel” that shows all participants the entire history seems more like a private forum thread than a “chat”, and should probably be distinguished separately.
