As somebody who has been professionally developing in Java for 24 years I have spent a lot of time trying to understand continued success of Java.

Personally, I think Java is very poor language. I wish I could program in something like Common Lisp or even Clojure. And yet every single corporate Clojure project I have seen was a total disaster.

I think what happens is for new developers, Java does not come as just language. It comes with a huge ecosystem including books, Stack Exchange/Overflow posts, frameworks, certifications, etc. All of this gives developers a basic template for how an application should look like.

And, paradoxically, all of this is aided by Java which is a poor, repetitive language.

When I open a new Java project, I can easily identify all of the parts. Enough of the structure is a simple copy and paste of another project, that whatever is different must still follow certain rules.

Project that do not follow this blueprint tend to be flops and huge maintenance problem.

So why is that? I think most developer underestimate that structuring an application is a skill in itself. When given a preexisting structure to fill in with functionality, they are following good, established structural patterns that are instantly recognizable and understandable by the community of Java developers. This makes it easy for new people to not get completely lost in even a large application.

When the same Java developers decide to make something in Clojure, they are now responsible for structuring their application without any clear guidelines or established patterns on how to do it. And for some reason they tend to not understand is that their existing experience has not taught them what to do in this situation.

1. Soul, consciousness ≠ intelligence

I mean, that's kind of the gist of my post.

2. Trope in sci-fi ≠ widely held position

Both practical/survivable faster than light travel and time travel are common tropes in sci-fi. Last I checked, it is not a widely held position that either of these is actually possible.
Here are my thoughts:

The first step is to put aside subjective biases, put aside ourselves completely, which is necessary to reading and listening effectively - curiously and objectively. You may fear or hate those things, but you brought them to the conversation; they aren't what I wrote about. (For example, I never said I attended either institution, or that the students there are somehow superior.)

Another step: There are more talented people, with better resources, than you - and than me, and you might be one of them. Good for you, if that's so; I hope you go much further than I do. That fact will always be true for everyone (ignoring a statistically meaningless theoretical exception). If we can't handle that fact, we can't talk about reality. Must we censor the idea that elite university education is exceptional, and their student bodies are exceptional? It's a cheap way out of the conversation.

Step three is that it doesn't bother me at all that you might go further than me, or the students at these institutions might go further. What is to fear? I'm not inferior to anyone on the planet. If we rely on external rewards, especially elite ones, as necessary to a successful life, then 99.99% will 'fail' - which seems to be where you reached your own conclusions. Most importantly, all the external rewards in the universe won't fill the holes inside; people seek them as a substitute, including elite status, but it never works. The only answer is to be happy with yourself internally, to provide love and recognition internally, regardless of the external rewards. The external doesn't fill those holes, and will come and go; you are the only person who will always be there; nobody can take that away.

I think it's because the list just isn't all that interesting… are you as hyped about all the new works based on Virginia Wolfe's Orlando as I am?

Academically, it's interesting to think over the media that would already be in public domain had Sonny Bono and Clinton not sold us out… basically everything through World War II, and (since all anyone brings up is Steamboat Willie) all the big foundational Disney movies from Snow White through Bambi and Dumbo. Makes one wonder if this fad for "live-action remakes" isn't connected…

I find 'rocket science' quite interesting, who not :)
But my knowledge is limited to what can grasp from watching the channels discussing the topics every now and then and reading some of the lightweight books. (I find the design and creation of the space suits very interesting).

Nevertheless when I saw the Smarter Every Day video the first time the biggest question mark for me was the number of rockets required to reach the moon _once_ [1]
There were some other topics from the talk like the cryogenic refueling never done before [2], the orbit around the moon [3]. But for these I cannot evaluate who much of a problem they are.

But more than eight rockets for one flight sounds a lot, even without expertise.

US has dramatically less ability to pressure NON-US crew on NON-US vessels to go on even more suicidal mission in peer war. That's what large segments of the outsourced 90% sealift is coming from. Non-Americans whom US gov have little pressure and can't draft to do military logistics missions during a war. Defense Production Act doesn't apply to them - and with respect to purely DoD/domestic sealift, the issue is US currently lacks significant amount of American hulls and American sailors to fulfill DoD logistics. Both of which has multi year lead time.

The other 10% that's firmly under US control is military sealift command, which is around 130 ships. The concern isn't shipping not going through red sea in protracted PRC scenario - it's if 90% of US DoD logistics capacity won't go to Japan, Korea, Philippines, even Guam etc. Like how DoD contracted Maersk ships initially weren't going up the red sea to presumably supply US interests in region. And now that another Maersk ship got hit, they're doing another 48 hour pause to reevaluate. US needs all the logistics to operate smoothly in a peer war. Not be uncertain whether 90% of military sealift will evaporate because private interest doesn't align with US foreign policy. Even worse considering alterantive is waiting a few years for Defense Production Act to buy/build new ships and train new sailors.
This problem often comes up and always ends with "it's an art" or some outright wrong or ymmv conclusions with a heady mix of variations on ford's faster horses metaphor.

One effective way to "get" the product is to be a real user. Not just pretend as one but to actually use the product.

This gives you a concrete foundation in one usecase. You can then branch out to other usecases by asking and observing others.

It's not as easy or sexy as collecting user data and plotting fancy graphs. And it's very very hard to justify time spent on this to your manager if they don't understand this inherently.

But it's very hard to fool yourself as a user of your own product.
That's fair enough as an argument, but I still think "research finds" is too strong for something that wasn't examined in the underlying study.
Unicode is variable length even if you use 32 bits, because glyphs sometimes require multiple codepoints. People sometimes write as if using more bits will remove complexity from Unicode but it doesn't really, you still need to handle multiple units at once sometimes.

Sure - earlier you said "if this is useful that's a really bad sign", and now you're saying "if it's necessary it's a very bad sign", which are pretty different claims. I'm mostly interested in probing the former, so if you're not making that stronger claim then I think we're on the same page.

I mean, yes, they are taking over the SCS, but that isn’t much concern for Taiwan. Actually, this works out better for them, since one of the reasons China wants Taiwan is that they don’t have open access to the ocean (control of the SCS would be an alt to that goal). American bases in the ryukyus ensure that China isn’t going to do much action on Taiwan at least in the next few years.

In addition to what Alex has said, as an SE contributor I do try to submit errata to Project Gutenberg where I can find the time and energy. Part of the problem, though, is that PG's errata process (https://www.gutenberg.org/help/errata.html) is quite cumbersome since you have to write an email to their errata team with each individual error. That's a real hassle to try to keep track of and submit. Ideally, if PG had something like a pull request system, I would just be able to find those errors in their code and submit the changes directly, but unfortunately they don't have that, so far as I am aware.

That is one major advantage SE has, I think, which is that we do allow people to make pull requests against any of our ebook repositories and any PRs that get merged are automatically deployed to the site. This makes it much, much easier for tech-savvy people to submit proofreading corrections!

I’m sure this detail will be lost when the anti-EV brigade share this article based on the headline alone. There is a massive anti-EV push in the media at the moment. This is good - it means they are viable and the people with money are worried.

If I may promote my own note-taking app - Plume[1], is built on top of my previous open source and cross-platform note-taking app[2]. It will be available on Linux as well.

It allows you to easily write beautiful notes, and add complex blocks (such as a Kanban board, images, columns, etc). What's unique about it is that:

1. It's fast, really fast for a complex block editor. Built with Qt C++ and QML it's actually faster than comparable native apps.

2. Each note is just a simple plaintext in the underlying data (although currently stored in a database, but in a future update we'll convert the database to an arbitrary folder).

So you can create beautiful and advanced notes easily, in a non-proprietary format (when that future update arrives). All while using a resource efficient and fast software that is cross-platform.

Do note some shell scripts won't work by pasting as is. You might need to put it through sh or bash interpreter instead.

fish is good for a shell but for scripting, probably better to stick to bash for portability. People tend to treat both the same.

On the other hand, most if not all of fish capability can be accomplished via zsh plugins while retaining shell script portability to a decent extent to bash.

I've used Fish for a while (my dotfiles tell me I've been using it for 8 years now... how the time flies! [0]) and decided to give Nu a try.

The main problem with Nu is that it can't really be used as a full-time shell because it doesn't support job control, so a lot of nodejs-based CLIs I need for my job seem to lock up the shell. I got around it by using pueue (a daemon that manages processes), but it's clunky to say the least.

I do think it'll get better as it matures, but I've been through all that pain with Fish and I'm not sure I want to put myself through that again.

That seems to be the current consensus, yes, although I don't think later years can be conclusively ruled out.
It's not like they had solar, wind or nuclear back then. Power was produced by burning coal which isn't that much better than burning gasoline.
> over repeated trope with little nuance

Says the guy whose entire argument is "war is risky." Well, yeah -- and a ruler weighs that risk against the risk of losing legitimacy and power due to a stalling economy. This story has repeated many times in history. That's why it's a "trope."

In my experience the older styles media were consumed in "down time" even if it was for a minute or two at work. People (in my memory, I'm 50+yo) did more real life things. There were malls, movie theaters, skating rings, box stores. These were a herald of things to come on the internet.

This was also the last days of interesting Popular Mechanics and Scientific American.

To your last point, people pay what the market will bear. In this case, it's free, so don't be surprised that if you give something away for free that people, well, take it for free. Importance has nothing to do with it.

> I am an engineer so I know very well that industrial replication is far from easy

And industrial replication, if I understand your meaning, is far down the development line - for technologies that have been discovered, researched, passed the test of viability, and then developed to the point where they can be used commercially.

Scientists are way back in the discovery and research phases; they don't have the benefit of all that, or the budget. They are doing the unproven and untried.
Sounds like your stats support the argument that if we let out the drug offenders there will be plenty of space, since it effectively doubles the amount of room currently taken by those convicted of rape and sexual assault.

Also, you haven't considered length of terms.

If 62.5% are serving for violent crimes, they are most likely serving longer sentences than those convicted only of drug offenses. This means over the time of one violent criminal's stay in prison, you have maybe 1.5 or 2 or even 3 or more drug offenders being taken in and released. This doesn't affect the amount of people in prison at one time, but it affects the amount of people who end up going to prison.

> I work on spaceflight mission planning software...

Yeahhhhhh. The thing is, though, I see two classes of desktop GUI applications:

1. The kind that are simple and casual enough to build around a web-based framework. In which case, I'd rather rely on the system native browser rather than ship my own entire browser in my distributable. Because I'm not doing anything complex enough to worry about cross-compatibility issues, and I'm not concerned about people running my executable 10 years in the future with zero updates.

2. The kind which don't fit the criteria above, and therefore really just ought to be honest-to-God native desktop GUI applications. I'm rather astounded that spaceflight mission planning software doesn't fall under this category. Do you REALLY care about supporting Windows, Mac, and Linux targets? If so, then... why? I would assume that spaceflight would be dramatically more locked-down and spec-targeted. If you do not care about cross-plat, then what's the point of eschewing native frameworks since that's the main reason people go with web-based?
I think I’m not necessarily talking about training. It’s the duplication before training, and maybe just the fact that training is consuming the entire work, which I think under copyright law requires permission (which typically means payment).

> It may be that assembling a corpus for training is illegal, but if so, that would be true even if it was never used for training.

Yeah, exactly! You’re right that copyright law doesn’t limit what you can learn at all, and doesn’t copyright ideas. But it does, I think, limit whether you’re allowed to read the copyrighted work in it’s entirety the first place, if you haven’t paid for it or legally borrowed a copy or whatever. Gaining access to the material is covered under the law, right? This does mean, I suspect, that assembling a corpus of copyrighted training material is not allowed under copyright law, unless it was all paid for or licensed with permission.

If the AI companies have paid for all the material they used to train, then my question might be moot, I’m assuming they didn’t pay for it. This is murky when there’s a lot of copyrighted material that’s available online, maybe with the intent that it would be consumed in small parts and not copied wholesale by machines for the sole purpose of making software that can replicate the content and style of what it learned.
