If they are lucky that works out and they can maybe get by with that and the cost would be in the mid tens of thousands. However if they get caught it will come out in court, the judge will not be impressed with a half hearted effort - so a million to defend in court, plus what they lose in court which could well be forcing all their code opened as GPL.

Remember, a small meeting will cost over $1000/hour when you add in all the time for each person in this. There will be several small meetings needed to decide on course of action. There is also the opportunity cost of the employees who are doing this (or just in the meetings) instead of something that more obviously brings value.

Ukraine was sold to Germany by Lenin, Makhno and is friends didn't let that happen. They used guerrilla tactics (like stealing guns and ammo) to drive them off. Then the remnant imperial forces led by Denikine (probably not spelled like that in English) thought Ukraine would be an easy prey, Makhno asked support from Lenin, again received nothing, and used the same tactics. That's when he theorisized Platformism, as his partisans were as numerous as a small army at that point. Once Denikine sent back in Poland, he was once again betrayed by communist and the red army came in Ukraine, where Makhno ended up loosing, took a few bullets, and had to flee.

'criminally inclined' I don't think so. I know dissing Ukrainian historical figures is now trendy, but still,have some respect. He fought for his land.

Eh.

A line, drawn somewhere, sure.

Humans being humans, there's a good chance the rules on UBI will expand to exclude more and more people — we already see that with existing benefits systems.

But none of that means we couldn't do it.

Your example is pets. OK, give each pet their own mansion and servants, too. Why not? Hell, make it an entire O'Neill Cylinder each — if you've got full automation, it's no big deal, as (for reasonable assumptions on safety factors etc.) there's enough mass in Venus to make 500 billion O'Neill Cylinder of 8km radius by 32km length. Close to the order-of-magnitude best guess for the total number of individual mammals on Earth.

This is a good question.

Publishers typically invest later in a project to help finish get it over the finish line. They used to invest earlier but over the years started investing later and later - as game engines got better and better, teams could do more with less funding so they stopped doing as much.

IMO VC entering the picture was a reaction to less early funding from publishers - it's filling a need for larger more ambitious projects.

What was the r/counting incident?
Imagine the government prints the money and closes the debt that way. Nobody in the present has lost anything they can point to. They lost a promise which isn't worth much. The person who lent the capital could have bought something nice ... however many years ago. Today, they just have to recognise that they made a mistake many years ago. They gave a gift and mis-recorded it as an asset in their accounts.

At this point, there isn't really a plausible path where the US debt gets paid down. The plausible path where they pay interest on the debt is also vanishing, 5% interest rates are overwhelming the ability of the US to pay. They are well on the path where even rolling over the principle will be infeasible. Anyone who believes it is a safe bet that they get paid back in real terms is rather optimistic, they're gambling. And in that environment, why should the inheritors of the debt play along in this silly game? They'll print and be done with it.

Personal debt is also a non-issue, where I imagine it gets extinguished on death. There isn't really a path here where future generations get saddled with debt. The problem is they'll have a future where their parents didn't build enough infrastructure.

I suppose the video might be about the UK, but the situation there would be largely similar to in the US, on a smaller scale. The problem is the lack of investment in the past, not the debt in the present.
I think this is actually a correct solution. Although not particularly elegant or efficient. If as long as if the string is unsafe the string will be modified. Then looping infinitely will never return an unsafe string. If it is also true that the modifications only delete characters then you will eventually arrive at a safe (or empty) string.

I think that definition is useful because it is measurable. It sidesteps the endless "It's just a text prediction engine/ I dunno ChatGPT seems pretty smart to me!" discussions. It also sidesteps the "It did well on a test designed to measure human intelligence it must be smarter than humans"/ "no, the test of human intelligence wasn't designed to measure machine intelligence and tells us very little" discussion.

It reduces it to "Can I fire 50% of my workforce? Then it must be AGI."

Now maybe this definition isn't so useful either, because a lot of work requires a body, to say, move physical goods, which has little to do with "intelligence" but I can see the appeal of looking for some sort of more objective measure of whether you have achieved AGI.

> Much like the debt isn't being "left to their children" - the children will likely choose not to pay it, it isn't written in stone.

What form do you think this debt takes, that the children can choose not to pay it?

A big part of this debt is a bunch of elderly people who feel they have paid into "the system" their whole working lives, and now they need their cancer treated, their hip replaced, their cataracts treated, their heart problems treated, their slips trips and falls treated, their strokes treated, their dementia treated, and so on.

And it turns out the system wasn't building up a balance all those years they were "paying in" - actually, the money was spent as soon as it came in.

Every one of these elderly people has a vote. And every single young person has elderly people as their parents.

To me it seems unlikely any politician would get elected with a policy of 'choosing not to pay' for healthcare for the elderly.

Curious about the hate part. I've only ever watched talks and heard positive things but I'm curious about the negatives you have experienced.
Yes.

Taxes are an investment by the old into the futures of their children.

Boomers grew up with a max personal income tax bracket of 90%, and an effective corporate income tax of 25-30% (it is 5% now).

Anyone who has studied macroeconomics 101 knows this.

The Chicago school bent over backwards trying to make the Laffer curve true, but it never was, nor will be. It doesn’t even pass the smell test: obviously any rational economic actor would maximize net profit regardless of the marginal tax.

Grocery stores make a 2% margin, yet are a thriving industry. That alone invalidates the Laffer curve.

Nobody remembers domain names either, that's what we have search engines for. The point of public keys is that they give the user something they own completely themselves and that their peers can verify. All the human-readable stuff can be implemented on top of that, e.g. if you wanna use domain names, put the public key into your DNS record. But you aren't forced to use domain names, you can send your keys around by mail if you prefer or put them in your Instgram bio.

The most important part here is that this works towards a "Web as data structure". Everything that is based around domain names will fall apart in a few months or years when those domain names expire, links go dead constantly. Everything that is build around crypto can last forever, as the storage location becomes irrelevant.

We already saw the benefits of this approach back with Usenet, where large parts of it could be reconstructed from random backup tapes, since everything was held together by globally unique message ids. Usenet didn't use crypto for this, but just depended on users behaving nicely, so that approach wouldn't work today, but it could be replicated with public key crypto in a very similar and more robust way.
Swear to god, the story is true!
We were able to restore most of the work because someone didn't pull the updates. (I should have added it in the story, didn't think it was important) But it was nerve wracking :')
This is simply not true. There's an initial cost of getting your engineers familiar with a codebase, sure, but that's still substantially less than building and maintaining the damn thing. Someone outside the project maintainers will always have a smaller cost basis for the tradeoff of not controlling what goes into the code (a power you say they shoudn't abuse - and most of the examples I named did, i.e. Terraform Cloud integration) and not being able to say "from the makers of <thing>".

I don't think that's enough, especially if the other company is AWS.

Also, Wordpress has a lot of competitors. Pantheon and Pressable come to mind in the enterprise space, with every commodity webhoster using Plesk for a less managed but very budget experience.
> Some of us (myself included) even consider licenses like the AGPL to be nonfree

Which definition of free do you use?

You may have valid criticism against AGPL but non-free isn't one. It's free according to the free software definitions and the open source definition. It's recognized as free by the two organisms providing relevant definition (OSI and GNU) and by all the relevant actors, including Linux distributions and even big proprietary companies (including GitHub).

I think you are misunderstanding the meaning of "for any purpose". It only applies to what you do with it when you run it. It does not mean you can do anything you want with the source code. It is very important to understand this aspect correctly when developing software or for a free software / open source enthusiast.

Well, you just mentioned `--force`. It is unsafe by default. Git has a couple of flags to make it safer (`--force-with-lease`, `--force-if-includes`) but those aren't the default.

Your criticisms of git seem off-base, but I like the idea. I worked on some indie game dev teams in college where I was the only person with any programming experience. Git was difficult for my teammates to wrap their heads around, although they did figure out Github's GUI. A more non-tech-person-friendly tool would be nice to have in the space.

When asking Google - what the etymology of the "robot" word is, the answer is from Czech word "robota" which is they translate as "forced labor".

While I don't speak Czech, I speak Polish which is a close cousin. For years it didn't occur to me that "robot" and the shortened "bot" words have slavic etymology. In Polish "robić" means to do (carry out, perform etc.) something. "Robię kawę" means "I'm making a coffee" and "Zrób coś" (imperative mood - do something!) is a call for action to take action. It's a popular multi-use verb.

"Robota" is a job or some work that one has to do, not necessarily forced as Google suggests.

Edit: Also adding another interesting fact. Golem is an inanimate entity from Yiddish folklore, with a story strongly related to a 16th Prague Rabbi. I looked it up on Wikipedia if there was any connection with the "Robot" and indeed there seem to be some - "The play was written in Prague, and while Čapek denied that he modeled the robot after the golem, many similarities are seen in the plot." (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golem)
Well, Mongo decided it doesn't really work. At least not for them, anyway. This is one of the most notorious case of relicensing from Open Source to source available cases, so it might be interesting for you to look into the reasons (it happened around 2018).

I bought a HP laser printer a year or so ago. Great printer, love it except that toner just started running out and replacement toner literally costs nearly as much as the printer.

I think a lot of breakthroughs are significant in understanding but can end up being untenable are treatment or it takes a very long time. But to answer the last question: my brother works in cancer research and it goes both ways.

E.g. I would argue one of the most significant developments in cancer treatment is genome sequencing. It allows you to specifically treat the cancer a person has instead of the (mostly false) perception previously of discovering some panacea in the rainforest that cures all cancers. But the genome was sequenced 20 years ago. At the time there was a perception that that was going to be a step change in custom treatment and solving genetic disease. In reality we are just now reaching the $100 genome and if anything it only served to elucidate how much we didn't know about genetics back in 2000. But slow and steady work means we do indeed sequence people's specific cancer and customize treatment for that. So there was a leap: the Human Genome Project. But afterwards it took a lot of slow and steady progress to get to where we are at.

He thinks mRNA vaccines are going to be the same. A leap forward, and now we are looking at slow and steady progress to getting custom mRNA vaccines to effectively cure cancers on a person-to-person basis.
