The problem I had in the UK was unmanned gas stations (at night). My main card apparently didn’t support a PIN at the time (2018?). So filling up at night was problematic (had to use my ATM card which did have a PIN). I ran into something similar in Italy in 2017 at the Florence train station - self-service terminal wanted a PIN.
The problem USG is dancing around is that this policy is probably not legal if you laid it out in the plain text, regardless of whether it's strategically desirable. If tomorrow the USG came out and said "the goal is to deny china access to these tools, prevent their ability to train their own models, etc" there would be a case in the WTO for an undeclared trade war and they would probably win, followed by retaliatory sanctions from other WTO members against the US.

AI as a technology isn't inherently military regardless of whether it has military applications - just like the computer isn't inherently military. At most it is an intensely dual-use technology, and honestly just like the computer that is completely underplaying just how radical a shift it's going to bring. It is a neutral tech that has broad applications across all areas of computing, the framing of it as being a "military technology" is kinda inherently and deliberately misleading, other than it being a box that the USG is notionally allowed to regulate.

And you can't just arbitrarily decide who "gets access to the computer" (or some other foundationally-disruptive technology) and who doesn't, in a global interconnected economy. This isn't the iron curtain where you have spheres of influence with no interdependence and you can bar the gates, that ship sailed with globalization and the 90s neoliberal "end of history" consensus. China has pushed through to multipatterned 7nm DUV nodes already, which is quite sufficient for solving the military side of the problem, if the US insists on making it a military problem.

Again though the real problem is this is an undeclared trade war, and the USG could not legally do the things it's trying to do if it just came out and admitted the de-facto regulatory standard it was actually applying, or the overall motives. Putting one over on a trade partner is not a valid reason for denying access to a foundationally-changing technology, according to the treaties the US has signed.

On the other hand... try and stop us. But the rest of the world is not deceived either, just like they're not deceived about any of the US's other realpolitik moves. we're doing it because we can, and because we think it's strategically desirable to stomp down at this moment of foundationally disruptive change.

Further to this, I would say that if you want to get together in person and have a digitally mediated gaming experience, even a turn based one, there are of lot of those to be had that are much richer and more interesting in uniquely-digital ways than simply playing an on-screen version of a game that was meant to be a pack of cards— an obvious example is Civ 6: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sid-meiers-civilization-vi/id1...

For me at least, part of the delight of a truly analogue tabletop game is experiencing all the little design tricks that are used to elegantly implement complex game mechanics (scoring, hidden info, turn taking, catch-up, etc) within the constraints imposed by bits of cardboard and plastic. Once a computer is part of the equation anyway, there's no point in any of that, and you might as well just be playing a game that is native to that platform.

I like roads, and indoor plumbing. I like living in urban environments that are well thought out and enjoy the ability to efficiently travel to natural destinations. I also enjoy safety nets of the social and judicial varieties, and the innovations of research institutions. Living without fear of a horse coming over the horizon is also a nice benefit.

If this could all be done without taxes, that would be nice. But I doubt the above could be achieved via voluntary payment without living in a dystopian world ruled by an oligarchy.
Easy: they just don't break out the different parts of your score. You just get one score, which is a composite of your math, verbal, and adversity tallies.

They can of course accomplish the same effect (since the UC itself would be the only institution using these scores) by aggregating the academic scores with the adversity scores and never letting reviewers know what the individual components were.

> But installing that guard rail for a one in a million chance that something bad happens is money better spent elsewhere

Just for clarity -- guard rails, where we choose to place them, probably cost $500k to $2M per life saved over their lifetime, while the value of a statistical life in the US is >$10M. This comparison ignores costs of non-fatal outcomes (injuries, disability).

It seems like we should be deploying more guardrails, even though their marginal return would be less than our current average.
I think the concept of not doing a months worth of grocery shopping for a family of four at a time is w what's foreign. going to the store for pasta and eggs and toast and nothing more is a waste of a grocery trip in some people's eyes. Those people love to shop at Costco and Sam's, and have a SUV's worth of groceries each time they do a trip. It's not a wrong way to live, but if that's how you live, not driving a vehicle with enough cargo space to hold a large body around means it doesn't make sense how you'd get any groceries. Doing that large a run is exhausting, so you don't do it very often, which means when you do go, you have to do a huge run which makes it suck. Smaller more frequent trips is shorter and mute frequent, which has its own, different problems.
Perhaps success is not deserved, but with enough anxiety you somehow can miss important milestones and the feeling of progress. So you "deserve" to experience that by making and effort to live in the now.
You're actually posing something close to a religious question; nobody has any way to organise shoulds and deserves and suchlike happen without a faith-based argument.

However, as a practical matter, most fields are stuffed with people who are either not or barely competent. If you focus on not making exactly 0 beginner mistakes then in my experience that is usually enough break into the top 10% of people and achieve success. Sometimes better than top 10% in uncompetitive fields. No competitive spirit or questions of merit required.

Although making no mistakes is quite challenging. Don't get worked up if things go wrong.

My first thought was that this could have some "co-processor" style applications in quantum computers, but I think the "real" answer is that if datacenter workloads could 2x to 10x in efficiency using chips made with liquid nitrogen cooled transistors vs. traditional silicon, it becomes economical to move in this direction.
Sure that applies to software development, but does it really apply to writing documentation? The articles currently on the developer page could be split up evenly between a team and be worked on simultaneously.

NewPipe has a manual option that just disables rendering of a thumbnail altogether, which is fine for me. No AI, no latency, no nothing. Apparently Invidious has this on their web client as well, as the "thin mode" checkbox that shrinks video boxes to a title only.

I'm not trying to rain on your parade, but personally I'm fine without AI stand-ins for clickbait thumbnails. Given how bad YouTube titles and descriptions are these days, you might have a hard time even finding a clickbait-free prompt in the first place.
IntelliJ is only performant due to its indices of pretty much everything. That is its true magic.

In contrast, the Git CLI and most if not all other UIs have zero sorts of caching and have to start from scratch for everything.
> with the right programming

:( That's the bit we still don't have right. Apart from a few special cases, we really struggle to use a small number of threads, or a GPU, without enormous amounts of effort - let alone distributed processors.

I'm sure part of the problem is we depend on high levels of backwards compatibility with systems assuming mono-processing ... but I'd like to think there is a way.

Now if someone came up with a really usable and general model for software across distributed processors...

What's old is new yet again
This looks like it is a small talk implementation with a lot of fancy nonsense terms to make it sound like it is something new.

I've never heard the term "Live Metacircular Runtimes (LMRs)" but they seem to think they are improving on "classic metacircular approaches"
> Is it unintuitive?

Yes when we look at it from both an individual level and a societal level. There's a very very strong aversion to loss and many decisions (including my own) are based on the concept of not losing something. Many times these decisions lead to making decisions that are sub-optimal (for the thing that's being optimized for).

By extension, many people apply this thinking to businesses and higher levels as well.
These are the traditional advantages of Smalltalk-like systems, and yes, this system is based on Smalltalk. There's a 2014 paper about Bee Smalltalk [1]. There's a Github repo [2]. There are no real docs and minimal comments in source control.

Section 5.3.3 talks about some drawbacks, and there are more in "8. Conclusions" and "9. Future Work."

> Today, Bee is far from finished, yet we know all required functionalities can be implemented. Furthermore, the resulting code is fully object oriented and can take advantage of all the benefits that a high-level environment brings. The main remaining question to be answered is what
is the maximum performance to expect from the system. We believe that the answer to that question will be highly positive, and that we will be able to unravel the mystery very soon.

I seem to be in the middle of trying to build something similar to this. I want it to run on an android phone but otherwise the same sort of idea, offline-first information I want access to.

There's some weirdness around android browsers refusing to load html from the phone itself on security grounds. The OP uses a "progressive web app" which seems to be the proper way to do this at some point in the past, but firefox has killed that for some reason. Thus the most difficult part of the project seems to be persuading my phone to render html without copying the files to some server (or running a fileserver on the phone itself, to look at from the phone, which seems absurd).

What I can offer for people stumbling down the same path:

- Obsidian works fine as for ad hoc authoring of markdown while walking around

- It is known on stack overflow that markdown can't be sanely parsed into an AST

- That knowledge is kind of a branding misfire, the 'markdown' one is looking for is here https://github.com/commonmark/cmark

- That cmark binary + some foreach-file style script will turn markdown into html or xml. If you choose makefile and put spaces in the name of files you'll have a moderately bad few minutes cursing your tools

- Given that output xml/html, you can build whatever other html you see fit. I'm doing that with xslt but people are telling me not to

- That html can be written back to the obsidian vault and opened by a phone browser (at least if it's a single file)

- Obsidian doesn't really do headless, but leaving it running on one machine which repeatedly calls "make" to write the *.html files back into the vault works fine

- CSS thus far appears to be required, I was really hoping to annotate the html instead

First 90% done here, second 90% to go.
That just shows that it worked in some sense. If it didn't reach any ELO, clearly the results would be uninformative: maybe it's impossible to learn chess from PGN, or maybe you just screwed up. He's clear that the point is to interrogate what it learns:

"This model is only trained to predict the next character in PGN strings (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 …) and is never explicitly given the state of the board or the rules of chess. Despite this, in order to better predict the next character, it learns to compute the state of the board at any point of the game, and learns a diverse set of rules, including check, checkmate, castling, en passant, promotion, pinned pieces, etc. In addition, to better predict the next character it also learns to estimate latent variables such as the ELO rating of the players in the game."
Recently, "Design Principles Behind Smalltalk (1981)", https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38821506
I'm not saying that other package managers handle it better - if authors wilfully misrepresent the state of their software, it is indeed not the remit of the package manager to correct them. If you started down that road, you'd probably end up with a library of tests (executed in the package manager's registry) to guarantee a non-breaking change, and at that point you have to trust the package author that the tests are indeed accurate, which is basically equivalent to trusting them to write the correct `version` string (unless you auto-generate the tests, which is an interesting idea but probably impractical).

I'm saying that the fact that it is (apparently) the norm in JavaScript-world that authors will regularly publish breaking changes that are not advertised as such, and that that is just an acceptable everyday uncommentworthy inconvenience, is surprising to me. How do y'all get anything done if you can't even trust SemVer enough to automatically pull in minor/patch updates to dependencies!?

Henry is obviously trying his best to pin this entire thing on an employee as a one-time incident that happened this Friday.

Yet, he doesn't do anything to address the concerns that similar things happened to many other companies, even before Friday: https://x.com/karrisaarinen/status/1743743570371321978?s=20

He also goes on length to explain how they manage customer data, and yet at no point indicates how the sales employee managed to get a company's cap table info. Sure, all humans capable of accessing cap tables are tracked and audited, but what's the point if anybody can self-accept a request to access the data.

The truth is, had Karri enrolled Linear in CartaX, or if the investor Karri mentioned had his public info online, Carta would have done everything they can to brush this incident off. Karri provided irrefutable evidence that showed that the only way this could have happened is by a breach on Carta's side, and Henry had no option other than first calling it a one time incident, then saying it's an incident limited to three customers, and then personally attacking Karri and trying to gaslight him with a passive-aggressive response.

Edit: Here is Karri's (Linear CEO) response to the blogpost with more evidence that this happened well before Friday: https://x.com/karrisaarinen/status/1744155886132826234?s=20
