Even intrinsics didn't even necessarily work well. MSVC, in particular, was really, really bad back then with SIMD intrinsics -- any use of MMX or SSE intrinsics in VC6 would result in more than two-thirds of the generated code being move instructions, with a single value sometimes moved two or three times between ALU instructions. It was trivial to beat the compiler with hand-written assembly. MMX intrinsics were never fixed and SSE intrinsics weren't fixed until VS2010.

For scalar code, it was more that the CPUs got better, as out-of-order execution starting with the Pentium Pro made instruction scheduling less important. The original Pentium CPU was an in-order design with two pipes where the second V pipe had significant restrictions, which was harder for compilers to deal with than the PPro/PII and its decoding pattern.

Selling or not selling tech to China is the least of the US problems.

Should be noted that Rust didn't have a 30 year head start unlike C, so it's obvious that it won't have support for every single embedded platform under the sun, at least not yet. It could in principle.

And because C is more popular in embedded, new vendors are more likely to pick it for new platforms instead of Rust, which doesn't help.
I've been using Pocketbase for several projects. While it's a delightful experience for solo-dev to quickly finish a project from backend to complicated frontend, I wish it has bulk-insert out of the box.
There is a huge gap between the Soviet thinking and the US thinking but that does not imply that the west is likely to fail for different reasons. I use fail instead of fall. If we talk in realpolitik terms, US as the top power in the world doesn't have a replacement or new actors at the top. Seems very clear that Russia and China will continue to hold their positions beyond the demise of the Soviet Union. India seems far in time to occupy a top position soon. And Europe is Europe. They don't dictate agendas.

> The "everything" package, with its 5 sub-packages and thousands of dependencies, has essentially locked down the ability for authors to unpublish their packages. This situation is due to npm's policy shift following the infamous "left-pad" incident in 2016, where a popular package left-pad was removed, grinding development to a halt across much of the developer world. In response, npm tightened its rules around unpublishing, specifically preventing the unpublishing of any package that is used by another package.

Has no one thought of that? It seems like it should have been obvious that such an absolute rule could be easily abused to troll the system at scale.

Not sure if it's a problem though, perhaps all unpublishing requests should be reviewed by someone at the registry (and granted only when it makes sense).

I apologize for the confusion, but you do not need to run FrameOS at all. You can just go about your merry day, and either just not use FrameOS, not post this comment, or, if you prefer, not read any of the comments addressing this question before posting yours.

On a serious note, yes, it's planned. The ESP is a very limited chip. If you want to display a BMP from a HTTP source, or a quick calendar, it's great. Try doing HTTPS, image downscaling or any serious processing though. Forget about things like browser screenshots, which you can't even do on 32bit linux anymore. Forget the 60fps mode over HDMI we can now do.

I'll try to get it working regardless, but it's but not a personal priority today over the other items in the todo list. You're free to lend a helping hand of course.

This simply isn't true. There are big caveats to the idea that neural networks are universal function approximators (as there are to the idea that they're universal Turing machines, which also somehow became common knowledge in our post-ChatGPT world). The function has to be continuous, we're talking about functions rather than algorithms, an approximator being possible and us knowing how to construct it are very different things, and so on.

I think we are in agreement.

You elaborated on my point about women well. Certainly there are still issues to be solved - I focused on the progress made, but your point on equality stands. However I hold up feminism (small f) as an example of how far we've come in a short time.

This progress gives me hope that we can progress across other spaces as well. LGB rights have become mainstream. TQ have a ways to go. As we add more marginalised communities there will be more fights to win.

Re-reading my example on children- my original post was unclear - I was trying to say that children choosing their own path at all is a very recent change. It's not so long ago that sons did what their fathers did (and daughters were married off.)

I concur that in this moment in history there is a revival of nationalism, barely-disguised racism, and so on. It evokes a time from 1930-1945. Regressions though are inevitable, but don't let that detract us from continuing to push forward.

That's exactly right. A probability of zero is a truly absurd degree of self-confidence. It would be like if someone continued to insist that en passant capturing is illegal, even while being told otherwise by official chess judges, being read multiple rulebooks, being shown records of historic chess games in which it was used, and so on. P=0 means one's mind truly cannot be changed by anything, which leaves one wondering how it got to that state in the first place!

Probably most of us even know about en passant, so we think we know everything. But if I found myself in that same bewildering situation being talked down by a judge after an an opponent moved their rook diagonally, I'd have to either admit I was wrong about knowing all the rules, or else at least wonder how and why such an epic prank was being coordinated against me!

Fat finger. Or a background story that would make an awsome movie.
`nslookup`
You can calculate the error yourself for the most recent experimental values of the Higgs vacuum combined with the numerically calculated lambda from the paper linked above. You get a Higgs mass of 129.6 ± 1.0 GeV at two loops. That's more than three standard deviations from the current Higgs mass measurement. So Hossenfelder's video is - as often - some outdated half-truth. At the current level of research, these values very much suggest that there is more to the Standard Model than we know below the Planck energy. Her whole shtick of bashing CERN always falls apart when you look a bit closer, which is why she only does popsci now and noone in the field listens anymore.

That being said, I still believe that asymptotic safety in quantum gravity is a really cool idea and it's well worth pursuing. It deserves better than to be used as a hammer for people bashing other legit science.

> How does this actually work? Finding it hard to believe someone bought domains for all combinations of those unit conversions

dns.toys runs a (custom) DNS resolver. The example dig commands are asking this resolver. They are not using your configured (public) resolver.
The custom resolver can return whatever it wants depending on the request. You could also ask the resolver what the IP (A-record) of e.g. "google.com" is and it could answer with whatever it wants.

Therefore, they actually just use one domain: dns.toys.

> The assumption that society would "quickly crumble to dust" if we gave more children more opportunities

Another strawman. I wrote that society would crumble if children's opportunities were entirely independent of their parents' efforts and successes, in line with the comment I replied to. That's distinct from what you are claiming.
I don't understand how you arrived at the number 51. Did you just tally up all the incidents in that list that occurred after 2009?

That list includes a bunch of incidents that are not really relevant for assessing risk level when flying on a commercial airline:

- Someone committing suicide by getting sucked into a plane engine while the plane was on the ground.

- Someone sneaking onto a runway and getting struck by a plane that was landing.

- Another person stealing a plane and intentionally crashing it into the ground.

- The Kobe Bryant helicopter crash.

Looking through the list I would conclude the parent comment was correct. The only incidents with passenger fatalities on US airlines since 2009 were Southwest 1380 and PenAir 3296.

Take Metformin after a few bites of food (inside of a meal). I’ve also noticed that the main complaint tends to be “explosive” diarrhea (ie little warning, run to bathroom NOW). When interviewed, often patients mention eating foods they shouldn’t be eating (processed foods, fast food. Eg carb heavy junk food). I believe it’s because metformin has an effect that decreases the GI uptake of glucose and instead sheds it.

Long story short, if you have GI issues try eating different, healthier food and take metformin within the meal .

Personally I see the diarrhea as a benefit. It’s a teaching moment and heck might contribute to weight loss. Truck drivers can’t stand it though. That must be a nightmare.

For those not interested in obtaining an Rx you can look up berberine. It is closely related and OTC.

How easy is it to fat finger a million dollar transaction like this?

Let’s say somebody had Satoshi’s wallet address on their clipboard, tried to copy their own, failed, Satoshi’s was still on the clipboard, then they proceeded with the transaction.

Wouldn’t they at least look at the first few and last few chars of the address before hitting submit?

Also this transaction seems to have been sent out at 9am GMT.

How would rewriting in $SOMETHING_OTHER_THAN_C help with this bug? This is a bug that would have happened in any language.

After all, Gow8876 was very specific about what he was referring to ("memory safety" bugs), because you were very specific about what you were referring to ("unsafe language").
I think it would just take a ton of work. If you’re not willing to make the leap to AI (and non-determinism) then conventional technology doesn’t have much to offer for NLP (which is what the task ultimately boils down to).

The trouble with trying to build a deterministic, logic-based NLP for interacting in a game world is essentially a special case of the frame problem [1] in AI.

> I fine-tuned GPT-2 on a 50 / 50 mix of OpenWebText and chess games, and it learned to play chess and continued to output plausible looking text. Maybe there’s something interesting to look at there?

To me that suggests investigating whether there are aspects of human culture that can improve chess playing performance - i.e. whether just training on games produces less good results than training on games and literature.

This seems plausible to me, even beyond literature that is explictly about the game - learning go proverbs, which are often phrased as life advice is a part of learning go, and games are embedded all through our culture, with some stories really illustrating that you have to 'know when to hold em, know when to fold em, know when to walk away, know when to run'.

Whatever other effect this has, it's likely to put bitcoin back in the mainstream news. "Has Satoshi come back from the dead?" "Who would waste a million dollars?" People love mystery and high stakes.

I don't buy your arguments that industrial revolution wouldn't happened without banking system. Industrialization of the Soviet Union is a prime example, Soviets pulled it off on a massive scale without any shenanigans with the debts and whatnot. You yourself actually proving this stating that the semi-modern banking with loans with interest already existed in the Middle Ages yet the industrial revolution only really kicked off in the XIX century. Industrial revolution was driven by the progress of science (steam machines, electric motors etc) and would have happened without any modern banking anyway. Pooling money of individual investors for great infrastructure projects like railways or factories etc. doesn't require any debt or bank mediation, in fact the entire idea of a corporation as we know know where investors are shielded from the liability doesn't need banking system at all to function just fine. And such investments were the most common of financing industrial projects during the peak of the industrialization, along side with the direct government subsidies, not banking loans
I appreciate this argument and I think I have been slowly doing it more without thinking about it. “AI” is just what it’s called now.

Also in your notes you talk about the “it’s not actually intelligent” and I agree it’s a distraction. I feel like a software system can contain certain knowledge and when asked it can produce responses which in a narrow sense appear intelligent. And so I think that is intelligence, it just makes us somewhat uncomfortable to see intelligence appear in such a transparently simple system. But I don’t think that discomfort actually means the system isn’t intelligent.
