The actual title of the article:

> 1 in 5 business leaders may have psychopathic tendencies

The text of the linked press release:

> One study of 261 corporate professionals in the supply chain management industry showed extremely high prevalence rates of psychopathy, with 21% of participants found to have clinically significant levels of psychopathic traits

In other words, a single study - and, not a broad sample of "business leaders", just a sample of supply chain management in Australia.

Finally, the research study itself:

If it works, it ain't stupid.

That said, a better approach would probably be found eventually.
120 years? Orion pulse nuclear can do far better with 1960s technology.

Space habs are the next step, probably hollowing out and asteroid or something similar.

The other option will be cybernetics. Seems less radical with recent AI advances. Humans are brittle. Cybots less so.

I see a lot of permanent pessimists about space "we should fix the earth".

There are... 8 billion people? We cannot "change the course" of 8 billion people with policies or carrots. Alas, war or famine will be the only hammer I hat changes course of that many people, and if that happens we'll likely bring everything down.

What is true insanity is what we waste on the defense department. although within that is the real hope for space settlement: it provides military advantage.
Fake news: battery producing electricity using beta decay aren't a new technology, are arounds for decades, those devices produce electricity in order of micro ampere/h, 1 / 1'000'000 of ampere, currents, so small can only fit to niche application, like preserve the status of few bytes of RAM. A phone needs million of time that current not only to operate but even to have a detectable recharge level increase. So article stating they can power or recharge phones and drones are pseudo-science and fake news, I'm reporting this because I observed a proliferation of articles with the same topic, this "50 years miracle battery", without reference, scientific documentation, tests, any paper with scientific value :

Technological myopia bordering on outright blindness. Ever? Compare technology today to that from 2000 years ago. Now compare it with technology from 2000 years in the future. Now 10000 years.

A 'generation ship' could be just a bio-lab and genetic material (possibly digitized) that is grown into life only after the destination is reached. Or after it is terraformed by other genetically altered organisms, engineered on-site by AI (or by Earth-based scientists, at the cost of a few communication round-trips).

And this is just the most basic version someone from the 21st century would come up with.

Edit as reply because I am "posting too fast": From TFA: We are not gods

A cheap way of dismissing what is already, today, nearly working technology - artificial wombs [1], and building genomes from scratch [2]. Further, what I proposed is basically equivalent to seeds - as in literal, existing plant seeds. But we won't be able to replicate, in 10000 years of technological progress, what nature already has working? Such a claim requires showing some strong, fundamental barrier, not to have the possibility handwaved away with "we are not gods".

What technological progress can't be dismissed with "we are not gods"? Landing on the moon? Splitting the atom? Heart transplants? Heavier-than-air flight? Fire?

> When the door plug is installed, the stop pads on the plug pass the stop pads on the plane and then the door is shifted vertically to align them, with the pads on the plug on the inside of the pads on the plane.

Indeed, picture provided by another poster above shows that is exactly how it works.

And I covered that eventuality in another comment:

> It's possible the stops hook over the corresponding parts in the plug but that's not readily apparent from the drawing at all.
I'm not really sure what you're asking:

Is he sure they're sending < 1 MB a day? Yeah.

Is he sure it's plausible it's measuring time series data? Yeah.

Is it plausible they measure vibration patterns? Yeah.

It's not about like "oh we'll send an electrical engineer to fix your specific vibration pattern", it's "we can collect data from the field to make forward-looking decisions": ex. maybe we switch supplier mix for replacement motors, and a data scientist ends up finding 6 months later that something changed in June 2023 where serviced washers in New York report dramatically more intense vibrations and now we know to go talk to the supplier who gained mix.

It's error logs for non-tech. YMMV on individual team quality if they actually follow-up. Conceptually, Big Data(tm) is something CEOs have been hearing regularly since, what, 2014? So definitely plausible.

If you configure a prod client with a wildcard redirect uri that's your fault. It has nothing to do with Keycloak.

If you configure a dev client with one, the prod backend won't accept this client.

I would be amazed if it weren’t. Ultimately, every system is an honor-based based system.
> So you're better off if everyone has one including you...

That is transparent bullshit [0]. The west hasn't been competitive at producing cars in 40 years and all the benefits of the industrial know-how flowed to Asia where they've built several civilisations worth of capital. I'd be much better off if we'd adopted pro-industrial instead of pro-environmental policies and captured the growth ourselves. The Asians have consistently been building wheeled scrap boxes, working them up to something that meets western standards later on after the industrial foundations are in place; it is these regulations that are killing us and distracting attention from the process efficiencies that actually make people better off.

The tragedy of the commons here is that competent people have to share a regulatory framework with the same naturalists who would have turned back the industrial revolution because they thought coal was too polluting. We're still fighting those fools off centuries later and it was absurd to ever give them the time of day given the destruction they have wrought on our industry.

And this isn't even considering that by mass western governments are welfare and warfare. This sort of administrative trivia is the most civilisationally crippling but not really what "the government" is by budget.

[0] Although on reflection, I'm not sure if that makes it better or worse than the more traditional opaque bullshit. If I were being less inflammatory I might say "you've forgotten to account for the positive externalities of cheap processes; which are decidedly nonlinear and really quite important at the low end of the cost curve".
Sure, only if https://icantfindanametoregistertosavemylife.com wasn’t taken.
The cases you describe in your last paragraph are not rare by any means — they’re everywhere, since all of the western world has seen a move towards bigger governments and socialism in the last decades.
As far as I know, yes.. Besides simple differences like register allocation, it's difficult to prove that your code behaves the same as the target if its nonmatching. It's also just really satisfying when you get a match.

When doing standard reverse engineering, you might use something like Ghidra or Hex-Rays. This is what the developer of noclip.website [1] did to reimplement a lot of Mario Galaxy code, such as enemy AI.

'Painful experiences long ago convinced Barvinok that requirements to affirm any ideal are corrosive in academia.

“I grew up in the Soviet Union, where people had to affirm their fealty to ideals, and the leaders embodying those ideals, on a daily basis,” he told me. “As years went by, I observed the remarkable ease with which passionate communists turned first into passionate pro-Western liberals and then into passionate nationalists. This lived experience and also common sense convince me that only true conformists excel in this game. Do we really want our math departments to be populated by conformists?”

Barvinok insists that it isn’t diversity to which he objects. Any coerced statement, he says, would trouble him as much. “Even if one is required to say ‘I passionately believe that water would certainly wet us, as fire would certainly burn,’” he wrote in his resignation letter, “the routine affirmation of one’s beliefs as a precondition of making a living constitutes compelled speech and corrupts everyone who participates in the performance.”'
Docker does use selinux policies.

Mapping directories from the host requires that you change selinux labels on those files so that the container process can access the files.
That's just how selinux works.
I think this probably gets a lot worse before it gets better. I'm not in the space myself but am close with a number of primary/elementary educators and from my perspective it appears as though in Western/developed countries at least there has been a massive shift away from teaching rejection and "life is unfair" philosophy and moving towards "everyone's a winner" type stuff. And education has a perverse incentive to just promote kids that are floundering instead of failing/holding them back and upsetting parents / making more work for the already underpaid and overworked teachers.

We're only just recently trying to course correct for this by teaching resilience training, because of course these kids will get to the "real world" of tertiary education / careers and just completely fall apart the first time things don't work out exactly as they planned.

I would be curious to see the age ranges of self reported incels and whether this correlates to a modern generation raised like this.
If they're not doing that they should, albeit finding a way to make the additional cost minor.

Collecting all that data for analysis would be incredibly valuable, especially considering the wealth of analysis tools today.
Bit of a side note, but COSMIC depends on the rustybuzz text shaper which is deprecated: https://github.com/RazrFalcon/rustybuzz/issues/74. There was some work underway to bring it up to sync with the latest harfbuzz and then handing over ownership to the harfbuzz team, but this seems to have fizzled out.
I love everything I've used from System76, but I'm confused about Cosmic insisting on using hybrid mode for graphics.

When developing / profiling GPU code, I'd prefer the freedom to keep the entire iGPU or dGPU to myself. I'm curious why they're forcing the issue.

I'm also curious if this will limit which external graphics ports can be used on some machines to show the desktop.
So, the buildin stdlib types afaict use arc only to figure out if the instance has a single unique reference. Internally it is a value type. If a variable on one of these types is modified then the existence of more than one reference is used to do a deep copy of the internal value type.

Also, internally the stdlib uses objc arc types nsarray nsstring etc only on Darwin platforms for zero overhead objc interop. This isn't the case on Linux and windows. For some embedded or Micro-swift variant for low level os work there could be a similar stdlib toggle for Darwin I think.
“This is a step in the right direction but it is still wrong”

You are wrong in suggesting I’m wrong. There isn’t any wrong. If you believe what you say, you would understand that and strip “wrong” from your vocabulary. There is only a way. There are many ways. The one I described was mine. The universe does not recognize your black and white thinking.

I recently migrated over to NixOS which treats systemd as the source of truth for everything, including containers. I found this model extremely intuitive, but it was difficult to apply this to Docker Compose without a lot of manual migration. So I ended up writing a tool that handles this for you — it converts your Compose files into a NixOS config that can be interpreted and managed natively.

I remember going to a planetarium at the local university while in school some 15 years ago. They told us how they use Stellarium to create the skies and Celestia (https://celestiaproject.space/) to create scripted tours for their exhibits. Both were compatible with the hemispherical projector they used.

As soon as I went home I downloaded them both and spent hours visiting stars in Celestia and exploring the sky in Stellarium. It’s great to see they are still quite active.

I have talked a lot with military people and actually have much confidence in their morals. Yes they will make many mistakes but in general there are lots of checks and balances and they‘re not evil people. Also note that they are ran by the government which makes them very risk averse.

In general, all technology can be reused. Maybe someday killer robots walk around with a Rust codebase. Should Rust not have been developed?

You do not have to have food deserts, that's self-inflicted.

If you are working multiple jobs, at least you should afford to live somewhere near. If you work multiple jobs and is forced to live very very far away/in ghetto, then you should realize people live better than you in third world countries, and relocate to Laos to teach English and lie on the beach. Seriously.
I was initially against Robinson on this after reading Aurora[1] - man did it make me angry - but in the years since, the more I considered the hard limits, the more I was convinced. We will visit the stars, but it's not an expansion that will be made by human animals. It'll be a combination of technologies and artificial agents, perhaps a smattering of engineered artificial hominids. You really do need mastery of biological engineering for even solar system colonization.

[1] Which, as with so many sci fi novels, has this panoply of great ideas but boy, do I ever not care about the characters. Except Ship. Ship was great. I suspect that the earlier Mars Trilogy had some great characters because they were transcluded real-life people that Kim new in the day to day interviews he did for that series. It's a repeating pattern for him. Honestly, so many really evocative science fiction books fail utterly as storytelling, I shouldn't complain so much.
"have robots grow us" is the premise of err, I Am Mother, a mediocre Netflix film but with that premise (and the issues with it).

Also I'm afraid we'll need to develop AI and technology that transcends us before it's ready to simulate one of us, at which point it may not make sense anymore.
As intended, I read the headline and the beginning of article picturing tiny houses.

Which sounds like treating the unhoused like I would want to be treated. Then:

most of its homes lack bathrooms and kitchens

And then:

The tiny homes that make up two-thirds of the dwellings go for slightly lower rent but have no indoor plumbing.

And it all made sense, it’s a campground.

Though the village is open to people of any religious background, it is run by Christians, and public spaces are adorned with paintings of Jesus on the cross and other biblical scenes. The application to live in the community outlines a set of “core values” that refer to God and the Bible.

A church campground.

TANSTAAFL.
Yeah, obviously anything anyone from OpenAI publicly says is marketing, especially considering that the all-loving cosmic utopia in the link I posted clearly is pure marketing BS. They actually added that definition in 2019, and shifted their priorities from their initial goals - no reason not to do this again any other time.

But I for one wish the OpenWrt One had a higher price in exchange for Wi-Fi 7.

I would strongly advise using a GPU for inference. the reason behind this is not mere tokens-per-second performance, but that there is a dramatic difference in how long you have to wait before seeing the first token output. this scales very poorly as your context size increases. since you must feed in your smart home state as part of the prompt, this actually matters quite a bit.

another roadblock I ran into is (which may not matter to you) that llama.cpp's OpenAI-compatible server only serves one client at a time, while vLLM can do multiple (the KV cache will bleed over to RAM if it won't fit in VRAM, which will destroy performance, but it will at least work). this might be important if you have more than one person using the assistant, because a doubling of response time is likely to make it unusable (I already found it quite slow, at ~8 seconds between speaking my prompt and hearing the first word output).

if you're looking at my fork for the HomeAssistant integration, you probably won't need my authorization code and can simply ignore that commit. I use some undocumented HomeAssistant APIs to provide fine grained access control.

The comic contains an important factual (not legal or ethical) error. It claims "the people listening think you're an asshole, and they're showing you the door."

This is incorrect - it's not "the people listening" that are showing you the door, but the corporations mediating your speech, despite having willing listeners.

Edit as reply because I am "posting too fast": RPM didn't write "your listeners", just "the people listening"?

"The people listening" is not an accurate or honest term for "social and other media corporations", even if some of their board-members sometimes listen to some of the speakers they eventually censor.

I’m on the opposite end of the spectrum as communist but let’s be honest, the well run communist regimes got all their people housed, and quickly.

The real answer is not tiny homes, it’s prefabricated apartment blocks that can be put up cheaply (in master planned super blocks where people can walk to stores and work).
Yeah, unless you're willing to try the emergency turnaround spots (if there's a cop speed-trapping, you'll get a hefty ticket, and by the time you've slowed down enough to use the turnaround, it's probably too late), you'll probably end up more than paying the difference in tolls.

If you already passed through the Lee Toll Gantry by MM 10, you'll have to drive all the way to exit 3 to turn around, go to the cheaper McD's, then pass through the toll readers around MM 10 to turn back around at exit 10, then incur another toll after getting back on the highway.

You're better off exiting the highway to eat at the McD's off exit 10, which is still $0.40 more expensive than the eastbound service plaza location, but still $1.00 cheaper than the westbound service plaza location.

Edit: Turns out I was wrong. I calculated the difference, and paying the toll thrice would cost $0.75-$1.80 (vs. paying $0.25-$0.60 once), depending on if you have E-Z Pass MA, E-Z Pass (other states), or pay by mail.

Depending on how you pay the toll, you'll save $0.20-$0.70 paying thrice to visit the eastbound McD's vs. paying once to visit westbound McD's, but the cost of gas might make it a wash. If you're paying by mail, the best choice is exiting the highway, paying $7.09, then re-entering. (That said, if you're going eastbound, stopping at the service plaza wins every time.)
