In your eagerness to hate on everything Twitter ever was, and not just what it has become, you are ignoring that Twitter was a fantastic resource for that kind of thing for over a decade. It's not incompetence to use a free tool that is so well suited for the job.

And as the other reply mentioned, this wasn't the only way they were distributing information. In the tweet where the NERV announced they were being rate limited, they also linked to their dedicated app.

Yes but only in the last year has California began implementing it in earnest. It says 9000 men have gone through such programs since 2015, which overall, reflects about 1% of the prison population in California. Given the success quoted in the next paragraph, it seems like California should be ramping up this number.

> Since reentry programs such as this began in 2015, about 9,000 men have graduated from them. California, even after an enormous push to lower prison populations during the pandemic, still has about 94,000 people behind bars and 35,000 on parole. Each week, hundreds are released, most with $200 and little support.

> But of those who participated for at least nine months in programs such as Amistad, 92% are not reconvicted of a new crime in their first year of release. By contrast, the latest figures for the general population released from California prison show that nearly 22% return to prison within 12 months.
You know what, to me, the hardest part is not about "just start", it's about "what to start".

Finding a set of core principles to start will help you answer "why you do all of this in first place" is the whole reason you keep working on.
There's a ton of free lectures on psychedelics and therapy. Ram Dass aka Richard Alpert comes to mind. Stanislav Grof is another. I can't afford to see a therapist anymore, but maybe going right to the source for free is better. I do a lot of writing too. Actually at this point I'd be surprised if I got any benefit out of doing a trip with a psychedelic therapist.
All this explanation does is reinforce my fear that UBI is about wealth redistribution from the middle class to the poor, rather than from the rich to the poor. Under the best case scenario that you describe, the rich would be largely unaffected, while the middle class would merge in with the lower classes to form a new lower class (though one that's at least over the poverty line).

This makes it politically a complete non-starter, but it also feels wrong to me. If we're going to redistribute wealth, let it be from the top down, not shared between the bottom 80%.

Doing something, anything is not guaranteed to make things better than leaving the current system intact. If UBI makes wealth and power even more centralized in the few at the top of the food chain, with the rest of us comfortably above the poverty line but more dependent (on average) on the government and on the 1%, that is not necessarily a good outcome.
We need more tax enforcement on the rich and big companies.

As it is now they don't really pay taxes as they have army of accountants to figure out ways around taxes.

We went with Roman Shades, and despite spending a significant amount of money on them the garbage plastic mechanisms completely disintegrated within about 2 years.

While researching repairing them, we found this guide to build your own:
https://www.onlinefabricstore.com/makersmill/how-to-make-a-r...

We were able to salvage the fabric from the old shades (which was still in good condition), remount it to about $20 of wood and assorted hardware per the guide, and they've been perfect for about 5 years now.

It's one of a few times we've gotten something that's so bafflingly bad that the only explanation is planned obsolescence - for a rounding error in extra manufacturing costs they could have built something that would last decades. Always feels good to fix your way out of that.
A for-profit corporation would also pay taxes on profits. A 501(c)(3) is a special class of org exempt from taxes due to the benefit it presumably provides to the public.
What? I have had no issues ever comparing numbers in an LLM context.

> Me: you have the numbers 3, 15, 10, and 72. can you put them in order, from least to greatest?

> GPT3.5Turbo: Sure! The numbers in order from least to greatest are: 3, 10, 15, 72.

> Me: now add 15, 13, 0, 293, and 1023 to the list

> GPT3.5Turbo: If you add 15, 13, 0, 293, and 1023 to the list of numbers we had before (3, 15, 10, and 72), the resulting list would be: 0, 3, 10, 13, 15, 15, 72, 293, 1023

Seems to handle duplicates, larger factors having a lesser leading digit, and making changes to it.

> Me: now add -5 and 5

> GPT3.5Turbo: Adding -5 and 5 to the previous list of numbers in order, we have: -5, 0, 3, 5, 10, 13, 15, 15, 72, 293, 1023

I had to write a piece of code to manage 200+ dogs at a kenneling facility, sorted by temperament, across a Gantt chart, with lists of friends and enemies which could stay together or must never be together - coming and going at different times. Additionally, dogs and kennels are both color-coded and certain types of dogs can only stay in certain types of kennels. Some dogs cannot share a kennel at all; kennels have a max limit of 1, 2 or 3 dogs; and some kennels are premium-priced.

In practice, the "optimal" solution depends on what you're optimizing for. In my case, it was maximizing the number of dogs that could board on any given night. This involved looking for open paths - since dogs can be moved around daily if necessary. Then rule out any based on the constraints: Prevent enemy conflict, limit to max occupancy, etc. After that, the preference is for boarding them in a kennel with a friend if possible, however there are trade-offs here in whether this creates too many extra moves... e.g. if a friend is coming in for one night of a dog's 7-night stay, we don't prefer to move. So the third priority, which occasionally overrides the second priority, is minimizing the number of moves which add work for employees. To do that, we look for the longest stretch open at each move branch, ranking them by number of friends descending, barring any with enemies.

As you can imagine, this was way too complicated and branching, so the system prunes the option tree at each necessary move down to a few dozen possibilities and continues down each of those paths, then ranks all the paths for the user to choose from.

In other words, a lot of the decisions for optimizing it (in the non-mathematical sense) were about limiting its output to a manageable number of reasonably good choices. Enemies create a hard limit on the number of spots available. Friends are optional (but good for business).

> How can you say that your reply "goes into the void", just because the name of the account you're responding to is "throwaway892238" rather than "fluoridation"?

I have no idea which of our community members any given throwaway is, I'll never know, their comments are just anonymous notes left with no way to respond to an actual member of our community with an actual history and an actual reputation (vs a throwaway they may never check again). That's why a throwaway comment is like an anonymous "fuck you" note. Or, put another way:

I agree with versions mattering. At the top, there's every version right now. Probably needs better UX.

Yea, I agree with adding attributes. I wasn't sure if most people would understand that UX. But it's on the roadmap, in lieu of groups.

Yep, dupes are definitely a thing. There's lots of places where everyone has the same names, though, so it could get annoying. Think Bali (5 names cycled), Korea (everyone's last name is similar). I haven't worked on this UX yet.

Great idea with the QR code generator! I'll have to look into this feature.

> The California Constitution ... prohibits the state from discriminating ... on the basis of race, sex, color, ethnicity, or national origin ... This measure would provide that ... the state may use state moneys ... for purposes of increasing the life expectancy of, improving educational outcomes for, or lifting out of poverty specific groups based on race, color, ethnicity, national origin, or marginalized genders, sexes, or sexual orientations.-- https://legiscan.com/CA/text/ACA7/id/2827675

* increasing life expectancy
* improving educational outcomes
* lifting out of poverty

None of these functions of government is hampered by providing them to any citizens that need them, regardless of their race, sex, color, ethnicity or national origin. It is unfair to exclude other people from these services on the basis of characteristics that they do not control.
If the demand for their services is cyclical, it’s rational to plan around the peak of that cycle.
That’s absolutely fair IMO, but they aren’t use it right if that’s what’s happening. LLMs can do a decent job translating, and they should have written their bug report in their native language and asked for a translation. Then translated responses, wrote their response, and translated back

This appears to be “write a bug report about X” then “write a response to triager for their reply Y” without intermediating, let alone factually checking the output.

That use doesn’t fall prey to LLM voice because the translation is of your text and phrasing.

God bless people who use LLMs to improve their life, translate, etc. But using them to think isn’t acceptable.

Quick comment, I just made a dumb mistake - I had read the post last night when it was posted and came back to the discussion in the comments. I forgot which parts where the charter vs. which parts were Aaron's comments!

So I was summarizing Aaron's gist, and in particular his comments about wanting to avoid a Python 2/3 schism. This was a case of "big burden for big gains," the burden being so large that developers didn't want to harm their hard-earned business logic implementation because 2to3 missed an edge case in a dict comparison.
One thing is definitely clear: Canada's federal government is sorely lacking in people who understand small business.

A business in my family was ineligible for COVID aid for the longest time because the business was too new to be paying people salaries. For some reason they decided the government drew an arbitrary line and said that businesses must have employees on salary to matter.

I can understand wanting to limit elegibility to legitimate endeavours, but it's not like the business was some kind of side-hustle being run out of the trunk of somebody's car.

> every time I look to secure new clients, I always look south. I haven’t been employed by Canadians in over 10 years.

When I had a small software consultancy in Toronto (10 years back), we also primarily looked for US clients.

We had a running joke in the office that went something like..

Canadian client: here are my vague business requirements, tell me exactly what this will cost before we start.

US client: here's exactly how much money I have, let's work together to figure out how I can make the most of it.

There's such a conservative and risk-averse mentality in Canadian business, and it leads to a lack of trust and innovation.
Yeah, a decently locked down program seems like a good idea! At the startups I’ve worked at, the programs have been very open (basically “email us”), and it does lead to a fair bit of beg bounty spam, even without LLMs in the mix.
>The point I made was that people will not vote for welfare unless it's means tested. It's really that simple.

I would agree with your point about the voters. But that just means the electorate are too stupid to realize that it is more efficient and cheaper to NOT means test.

Those who administer the means test are unionized, pensioned employees who cost the taxpayer a lot of money. The argument for UBI is that it is cheaper because you don't need all those bureaucrats/administrators who work in social services gatekeeping.

An argument against UBI, to me, is that the landlords will just raise their rents accordingly and scoop up the money. I believe that's what happened when the govt starting giving out money for low income earners to help them with their rent. I might be wrong on that.

A pragmatic question is: will it help more people than it harms?

Not trying to date from bars or dance clubs is obvious. Which previously meant men and women would date from work and social circle. Well, now at least half of women are dating exclusively from online dating, and picking out of their league because it's more anonymous. And even girls that don't date online exclusively, tried it a few times and again, landed with guys that would never commit.

It's basically poisoning the well.
Assumed your point was the per-track pricing that iTunes ushered in, rather than the system as a whole.

That's closest to the Spotify user experience.

However, it never would have happened if Apple hadn't had such a dominant position in the market (at the time, iPod) that they could force record companies into that deal.
