If a tree literally fell on your car, there was no way you were going to accelerate out from under it. Humans simply don't have the reaction time to do so.

Now, if that tree fell in front of you, the slower you're going, the more likely you are able to stop before running into it.

Human reaction time to apply brakes is ~half a second. Stopping distance is roughly linear as speed increases. So, 20mph you start braking in ~15 feet. 40mph, 30 feet. 60mph 45 feet. Etc. That's just to react - you still need the time/space to bring the vehicle to a stop or slow enough to swerve around the tree.

I can't think of a good way to say this, apologies if it comes across poorly.

I commented because it felt like cause and effect are backwards

Like, I'd easily believe it's more due to stability than being able to say "aw shucks, we wanted to put elevators there but we can't fit them"

It's like saying the skyscraper has an upside down pyramid to create a choke point. Just do that, don't fight physics too.

Why?

Because its not reliable. Fuel stoves are extremely reliable, you just need access to the fuel and most of the time there is a level of interchangability on types of fuels. Electronics fail. Fuel stoves generally do not or if they do, repairable.

The sun is not always shining. What do you do, not cook? Yes, you can add batteries, thats increased costs and more failures. Or do you add massive solar arrays for each home? 900watts is not a trivial amount for someone living in a rural country side.

> And that should not be allowed, if we want to continue to live in a free society, where freedom includes not being digitally trackable at any time.

This really, truly does not follow for me. You do not have a right to not be viewed in public. That is fundamentally not a right. It's like... if you and your friend set up shop on a sidewalk, and shout at each other your conversation, and someone records it... should they be charged for illegal recording? If so, why is that any different than recording a street preacher / politician's speech? At some point there's an implied consent w.r.t fair use.

There should be limitations. I do think you should not be able to redistribute such content without permission, but that's not what's happening here. The cameras are meant for your own viewing. There are ethical issues in my opinion with the data being sent to a third-party 'cloud' provider, but there is no fundamental ethical issue with simply recording the view from your abode in such a way that any human would normally be able to also view.

Look... I get the creepiness aspect. I get it might feel wrong. Rights are like that. The right to do what you wish with your property, including to look out from it and view whatever it is you see, is actually also a basic right, and insofar as the rights are coming into contact, I don't see why it would be held subservient to your alleged right to privacy on a public view.

I don't see why we arbitrarily draw a line saying 'being recorded in public' means it's not a free country. Couldn't you also say that 'not being able to record what you'd otherwise see from your person' is also anti-freedom. I feel there's an immense amount of nuance lost here and people are quick to sacrifice one freedom for another.

100 ml / 4 liters = 2.5%.

I'm biased, but I think the answer is semi structured problems.

Automating a tractor that has to till or seed is much easier than a self driving car, and alleviates some very low margins high labor intensive activities.

(I work at a place that is automating logistic yard operations, which is fixed cost, well structured, and predictable problem/environment)

I think "everywhere all the time" AI for chat, driving, coding, or medical image analysis etc is a pipe dream absolutely. And what we will lose when it all pops is the pragmatic solutions to solveable problems that sound more like "algorithms for assistance occasionally or part time".

Surprising precisely no one, I suspect.
I agree there might be a relationship between the physical state and the actual experience of it, but ultimately they cannot be bridged. There's only one way to bridge that gap and it's to "be" the physical state, and that's a concept that has absolutely no analogy in physical phenomena.

But it's even worse than you say, because those relationships are generated purely within the mind, we don't find them outside the mind, so really all physicality is an illusion, it's all ultimately internal.
Can the car punch the driver in the kidney when they run a red light too? That would be great - I feel like ignoring stop lights is happening more and more and a bigger risk that simple speeding.
Unless you are a _really_ heavy user of ChatGPT, the best way to use it is via the API with a separate application like MindMac or something similar.

That way you pay exactly what you use, nothing more.
A Newton is a unit of force: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newton_(unit)
You're saying that people shouldn't be surprised that they're conscious. That may be true, but it's irrelevant to the argument I was talking about. The relevant fact there isn't merely that you're conscious, but that you are (consciously) the particular person that you are.

Bowsamic orignally posed a question that gets at the relevant fact: "Why am I me and not someone or something else?" However, the argument here doesn't rest on this question being puzzling. The argument is simply that the relevant fact of personal identity (whether puzzling or not) does not seem to reduce to any specifiable set of physical facts.

The form of the argument is exactly like a Platonist argument against physicalism: "2+2=4" is a fact and does not reduce to any set of physical facts; therefore not all facts are physical facts. This argument does not require the assumption that truths of arithmetic are surprising or difficult to explain. However, I think the irreducibility claim is more compelling in the case of personal identity than for mathematical truths.

I suspect without doing the maths that their rockets would still be similar in size to ours, because of the fuel required to achieve escape velocity, and the good old rocket equation. But they would certainly be able to fit a lot more spidernauts in.
Very awesome!

Looks like with this making federation available there's just a need for someone to come in and set up a trustworthy portal that collects federated music and provides the customer (music purchaser) UX. Assuming they can find a way to federate the payments (skim a small fee for using the aggregator's payments, instead of direct linking to various musician's purchasing systems), this should make hosting the infra for a site like this manageable, based on the lower decentralized media.

That's a long way to go to get to something that, in tandem, would be a 'bandcamp alternative', but I can't help but get excited for the small steps! They do often open doors for the bigger steps!

The tragedy is that nobody is calling out the vacuity of using a text message as an authenticator. Hell, even the MIT alumni association does this and they should definitely know better!

It's going to take someone serious, like the FTC, to force a change in this lazy and dangerously ineffective approach. But TBH I fear that the alternatives that might work for the bulk of the population (who, after all, have other things to do with their lives than become computer security experts) will just move do a different, and equally dangerous point in the option space. Its not like most people can manage a password manager, much less its dynamic key features.

For example choosing a very large third party (like "log in with google"/Apple/Facebook and so on) just allows a different kind of attack to lock you out of everything, likely with no recourse.

Hey - Akash from Zenfetch here. We’ve actually tested some of our features with local models and have found that they significantly underperform compared to hosted models. With that said, we are actively working on new approaches to offer a local version of Zenfetch.

There's a little tweaking sometimes.

Most examples you'll see of `straight.el`/`use-package` configurations will have some version of: `(use-package something-cool :ensure t :config ...`. The `:ensure t` clause will cause it to fall back on `package-install` in the event it's not bolted into your local Cargo-style-own-the-world-and-dont-break repo mirror. Disks are big, it's like the right default now.

But if you've got a package that's mis-specified in terms of where on `github` or wherever that `striaght` is supposed to find it, you can find it tapping `elpa.org` on the shoulder at a time when the UI thread is also doing blocking network IO.

The `Messages` and/or `straight` buffers will have warnings about this, so it's fixable to find the offending package and it'll stay fixed, but in fairness what you're describing is possible.

If anything UKR (and Gaza) war has shown, global south, the dominant reservoirs for future growth, which PRC is courting (and now constitute plurarity of trade) is decidely not pro west. What west is doing is consolidating the elite clique amoung a powerful but increasingly stagnant friends. Which is fine, but it's also matter of relative size of the group. The Chinese "family" i.e just PRC itself, is pumping out comparable human capita and industrial potential than all of the west, their family and her friends. Don't be surprised a well run family business + some acquaintances eventually outcompete tight friend groups that are still connected based on artificial affiliations.

Also most of global android users would be on Chinese phones if US sanctions didn't ban access to Huawei and reduce appetite for PRC firms to continue expansion into western markets. Sanctions / tech control are every bit as top-down economic planning. Once PRC indigenizes their own tech stack, there's a good chance rest of world will drive PRC cars, and fly on PRC planes, and use PRC chips. I think only long durable term competitive advantage of west, and really we're talking about anglo countries like US/CA/AU is being net food/mineral exporters due to resource abundance.

> Top down government planning is the only thing that has consistently worked in high technology sectors, especially things like semiconductors or spaceflight.

That's what gave us Intel processors? SpaceX? Google? ChatGPT?

I strongly disagree with your reading of events. (Yes, there was government involvement in the origins of the semiconductor industry, and in the origins of US spaceflight. No, top down government planning is not the only thing that has consistently worked. Having the government seed things and let private businesses run with it has worked pretty well.)
Which is kind of weird, because it’s used as a “crime doesn’t pay, the good guys win” and on one hand, sure, Al Capone is a bad guy. On the other hand it highlights the power of the government to harass someone they don’t like, suspect of crime, and can’t prove via unrelated arms of the government. That they’ll just lawfully harass you on all possible ways until they either bankrupt you or find something you’ve done.
But then how will we prove the planet isn't upside down?

The term "bubble" in AI refers to inflated investments and valuations based on speculative rather than intrinsic values. While the AI sector experiences significant hype, its broad applicability and real-world utility across various industries offer a stabilizing factor against bubble dynamics. Continuous technological advancements in AI contribute to its tangible value creation, countering speculative pressures. The future of AI's market stability will hinge on aligning expectations with actual capabilities, amidst navigating regulatory and ethical landscapes.
