> We're barely scratching the surface of all the cool and interesting things we could do.

And what are some examples of those things? Right now, AI, i.e., machine learning, is just being used to steal people's data and work only to try and sell them more things. That's 99% of the use cases out there right now.
"At some point there won't be a choice."

Well, that's the situation with Google isn't it? Every new iteration of Android is more proprietary than the previous one thus more difficult to tailor to one's needs.

Leaving aside all Google's spyware issues, since Android 10 just doing basic things on Android such as copying files to my SD card has become essentially impossible. Google's scoped storage is a disaster—designed in the name of security but in practice it's another step by Google to reign in control of the OS. At this rate, it won't be long before users have no control whatsoever over their phones.
For example, in 2 dimensions embedded in our 3 the force potential decreasing with square distance would have given a hint to the 2-dim occupants that they are embedded in 3. We don't see the decreasing with cube, so we don't seems to be embedded in full-flat 4+. (even more - the force falls off linear with distance in galactics, i.e. "dark force"/MOND, which seems to be another indication of some holograghy-like "folding" 3->2 (the other being is the black hole holography))
Google is no such place. I've worked in several product areas, and while there is no formal one-size-fits-all process, generally engineers build products specified by PM written PRDs, often informed by UXR, designed by UX. At least for the last 12 years, it's not been a wild west of rogue engineers.
> One day we were chatting in a group meeting and he said he was working on a TPC-C benchmark that was spending too much time in the SCSI disk driver, so he wrote a 10-line awk script running against kernel memory to look at the SPARC machine code execution path and find which branches were being predicted wrong, then wrote another awk script to flip the branch prediction bits in memory and it showed a significant speedup.

SPARC exposed read and write access to branch prediction!? That's... fascinating. Here I thought branch prediction was always a completely opaque thing that the CPU did internally and maybe if you were lucky it might let the program be able to know that it was happening after the fact. Hm... I wonder if it's easier to perform Spectre type attacks if you can just ask the CPU about that kind of behavior? No need to do timing attacks if the CPU will just tell you
Do we have these discussions about Victor Orban?
I can't speak to the culture in Eastern Europe. I meant in the US where I'm quite sure considering old beloved artifacts of today are all the nightmarish monsters of yesteryear that people protested.

Fortunately, the American version of this view will be smashed in the next two decades and we will enter an era of creation once again.
They actually did open up relations a lot, but Russia was like Mordor and the old ways were just too ingrained. The ball was less dropped and more the air slowly deflated.
I do too, though your description covers how a lot of people actually talk to each other. I hope that some good that will come out of text generation models is that people's tolerance for verbose empty writing will go way down and we'll start valuing content.

Incompetency, poor judgement, lack of vision, and unrealistic projections?

When they announced opening of three new offices during Pandemic, I right-away said - 'no, they don't need it'. If I could say that w\o being internally involved, why can't they?
How do various anti-cheat technologies work with that? One could imagine that developers would see that as tampering with the "native experience", if some people use limiters/compressors/filters and similar.

Yes, "For purposes of this section" meaning "Section 174", which is about:

When I first moved to London NW3 in 2016 I also had this thing in my apt but it always seemed to crash right after you boot it using the pin.

No there really isn't. The closest thing is "Rust after you've already gotten over the learning curve", but I realize that that learning curve is why you phrased your question the way you did.

Zig is aiming for what you're talking about, but it's not yet stable. They're interested in memory safety, but they don't want to add a borrow checker and they certainly don't want to add a GC, so my outsider guess is that they'll end up tolerating memory unsafety and trying to make up for that with debug modes and tooling. I don't really have a sense of what the end result will feel like, and the problems discussed in https://youtu.be/dEIsJPpCZYg make it sound like the basic semantics still have a ways to go.

Go could've been the language you're talking about if they'd given up on goroutines and just used the C stack, but goroutines are arguably the most important feature in the entire language, and it's not clear to me that there's a market for "Go but worse for network services and better for FFI". It would be hard to carve out a niche as a systems programming language that's great at making syscalls but can't realistically implement a syscall.

Just want to say, Never heard of Jank before and it looks awesome, great work!.

As more of a CL guy who's dabbled in Clojure but found it a bit too slow(but conversely I also miss the Clojure's data structures and transactional state in CL; multithread programming really isn't CLs strong suit, for obvious historical reasons), this might reinvigorate me. I may sit down one day soon and churn out some AOC or something in Jank just to get a feel.

Cheers :)
Well size is the limiting factor for fliers, since they like to have broad surfaces with low weight. But I think you're referring to some, ahem,

untested possible landing vehicles ...

in which case, yeah, you have a lot of robots.

For the solar farm assembly case, It's actually a lot easier to have a teleoperated robot doing the work, a few astronauts in orbit doing the operation / construction. In the case of building things, you want as much space / weight landed to be the thing being built, not the builders, per se.

I'm always wondering when people speak about (un)employment. Like ok non-farm payroll numbers may look good but what kind of jobs, for what kind of pay?

Logically, employment may increase while people's standard of living may get worse at the same time?

Is there somewhere more specific data?

Other than that, I think I remember an article claiming that the introduction of thr personnal computers led companies to be able to generate the same revenue with less people. Like it used to be 8 employee per million USD and it got to 5.
Then again, depends of the size of the average enterprise and the market size (which increases with population increase)
>A good example of this is with same-sex marriage. Opinion changed rapidly and I'm sure many have even forgot all the things said before Obergefell v. Hodges.

Do you live on one of the US coasts? Because if so, you are probably right - before Obergefell, most people didn't care about your private life and after Obergefell it could all finally be out in the open. But in a big chunk of this country, it really doesn't matter what the courts decided because there is major political and religious pressure that says that ain't ok. Don't pretend for a moment that a wide swath of states wouldn't send us straight back to 1863 if they could.
Not at all, but we are talking on a submission about getting open source work paid. I've done my fair share of unpaid open source work and it was a ton of fun. I've had a lot of very good experiences with the community coming together to resolve an issue, but I've also had bad experiences, mostly with larger entities consuming said projects and not willing to contribute in any way, shape, or form.

With that premise, recently I've experienced more and more release engineering asks popping up around open source: SBOMs or other compliance reports, regular dependency updates (dependabot and friends), regular releases, support cycles, supplying a DEB/RPM/APK repos, shipping on Snap, Homebrew, Winget, Chocolatey and who knows where, sign with cosign, GPG, x509 and so on. You get the picture. I have yet to meet an engineer who likes to do release engineering in their free time. It's hard to test, it's hard to automate and is super sensitive because if you mess it up you leak keys or compromise user systems.

This is something I believe the poster needs to address, otherwise their platform will be full of projects doing feature-driven development with important safety and maintenance concerns left by the wayside. Although I have seen a few working models, I don't know the solution for all of open source. I believe that if we are talking about viable funding models, funding needs to address both feature and maintenance work and not tip the scale too far in one direction.

Nice analysis. But the point about stability - in other configurations of the universe, the subset of those that do evolve intelligence in some fashion is going to have different physics from our own.

Stable intelligences might be another condition to explore in such an analysis.
> DeepMind now merged with Google Brain seemingly with a product focus, FAI

I don’t really agree that training massive causal LMs is a “product focus”.

I agree that there is an increasing product focus in orgs like OAI, but a lot of that is coming from new growth rather than trading off with base research.
They didn't set an "expiration date", the founders and Eric Schmidt just made a pact to stay at Google for 20 years together. It's a promise that Eric Schmidt already broke in 2020 anyways, so putting any weight into this is nothing but wishful thinking

>Logically, employment may increase while people's standard of living may get worde at the same time?

Yes it can and yes it is. I'm also baffled by people keep pointing out low unemployment like it's the be all end all of all arguments for economic prosperity.

Obviously sky high unemployment like in the great depression isn't great either but just because people are forced to accept any one of the abundant gig economy jobs, no matter how shitty, or even more than one job, due to the high CoL and low welfare, it definitely reduces unemployment numbers on paper, but is that ideal?

Maybe some jobs are so shit that people would rather bum around on minimum welfare than get dirty, tired and aching bodies just to only to make peanuts over welfare.

Maybe the median inflation adjusted take home wage of the employed person after subtracting essentials like rent, utilities, bills and food, would be a better metric to measure economic prosperity of the working class than collectively clapping at record low unemployment numbers.
Did not mean the barrel jack power is vendor proprietary. Only that it's not something I can pickup anywhere, but more or less have to source from online. Unlike USBC, where we are almost at the point I could get a 100W charger from any corner store. If nothing else, the standard charger is laughably bulky vs the GaN chargers that are now available.
Handlers don't need to blend it nearly as much. They just need a plausible reason to be in the vicinity of their assets. A lot of diplomatic staff are spy handlers. Also, businessmen, military attaches, etc. Every country has some contact with foreigners. Any of those foreigners can be handlers.

NASA.

I know a few people who wanted to get away from the FANG hype grind and went to NASA.

They tell me they’re doing actual engineering for engineerings sake. Which sounds great.

Salary obviously not comparable to FANG 400k plus but the satisfaction and pride is well worth the sacrifice to them.

Me and most of my friends are “super American” like I’m an immigrant who wears USA hats and t shirts. I would love to work at NASA once I have established a little place for myself here. I would be so proud to contribute to this country and its success in space and research.
> Right—and maybe those places ought to install OpenBSD.

Sure.

But running on OpenBSD doesn't solve application level vulnerabilities. And sure - OpenBSD may help limit the ability of an attacker to leverage one vuln into compromising the entire system. But if the original attack was important enough, that's cold comfort.

One could get the impression that musicians are hostile to innovation. Such discussions arise with practically every major technological advance. With the introduction of the radio, then the record player, the drum machine, etc.; yet half of copyright law, including related rights, already revolves around musicians and composers. The world is evolving. I am a musician myself (even professionally for a few years). The market has been broken for a long time. AI won't change that either.
It’s funny reading some of the responses here because it’s clear many people have lived as if responding to a completely literal reading of only the first paragraph of the book of life.
No, I meant FreeBSD, though NetBSD is (much) further on the same spectrum. If I read that Darwin or NT were looking at using Rust, I'd figure that was easy enough; they more or less only target x86 and ARM, which are mostly well-covered by Rust. If NetBSD said they were moving to Rust... I dunno, I'd assume that either Rust had really changed their approach to platform support, or that NetBSD as I knew it had ceased to exist. OpenBSD is actually also on that far end of the spectrum, because they care even more about self-hosting, which means that the inability of rustc to actually run (or at least self-host) on 32-bit x86 is a hard blocker. FreeBSD is in the middle; I knew they don't intend to hit as many hardware platforms as their siblings, but I still thought they had broader coverage than rustc. And (per the page I linked) they used to, but as of the latest releases they've been really cutting down their targets. Which... I dunno, it's practical, but still sad. I guess there's at least still OpenBSD and NetBSD to cover portability.
I find those keywords much more readable, and faster to type (qwerty). I also wish Rust had those instead of the weird symbols. Oh well, c'est la vie.
read the garbage collection handbook - https://gchandbook.org/
while at the same time being memory safe.

memory safety doesn't mean just one thing, but probably it requires either a lot of rust-like features, a tracing garbage collector, or automatic reference counting.

the language being small enough that all basics can be grasped in a day

that disqualifies taking the rust-like path.

able to use all c libraries through ffi. without loss of performance or extra fu.

that disqualifies most (all?) advanced tracing gc strategies

it must not have massive pauses or stop the world GC.

that disqualifies simpler tracing gc strategies

depending on what precisely you're looking for, it's possible it might be a pipe dream. but it's also possible you'll find what you want in one of D, Nim or Swift. Swift is probably the closest to what you want on technical merit, but obviously extremely tied to Apple. D and Nim strap you with their particular flavor of tracing gc, which may or may not be suited to your needs.

JTAG is hard to do. RP PIO (USB FS), TI PRU (bad toolchains), or NXP FlexIO are really required to do it correctly (or you can do it "okay" with a capable SPI controller.)
I've got a projector home theater, there's a couple of issues:

1. You need to have a lot of control over the room lighting. If you can't block out all the light the image quality suffers a lot.

2. You need to have a clear wall or projector screen, which might mean giving up some useful space in your home.

3. The black levels are awful compared to OLED.

As for guests, other than the occasional movie nights, we usually play a board game or are making something as our activity.
Hah, I hacked Nettby in school too, good days.

Are you interested in what she does? If the interest is one way rather than mutual, it's a challenge. Not necessarily a deal-breaker, but if you're lonely in your main relationship and you're not comfortable just keeping different parts of your life in different boxes, that will become more of a burden with time because you will keep feeling ignored.

Some of this feeling may overlap with being an immigrant. Consider going home for a week or two (call it a business trip if you want) to see how that shapes your emotional perspective.
