> I'm sure these numbers could be argued endlessly

Indeed they could. Most painfully, the child figure includes things like the cost of keeping a larger house. Yet in reality a child couldn't care less how big or small of a house you have. Hell, early North American settlers used to live in tiny, one room log cabins and raised like 12 children in them just fine. If parents choose to live in more luxurious accommodations, good on them, but if we are being honest that is an adult cost to satisfy adult desires, not a child cost. The cost to support a child on what is actually necessary to support a child is only a tiny fraction of that.

But let's say, for the sake of discussion, that the figure is irrefutable. A big difference is still that the child starts to contribute after the first few years. The outflow may be $240k, but there is an inflow to offset it. Unless you are an evil parent who locks the kids in their bedrooms until they turn 18, a net gain would not be unexpected.

While there may be individual dogs out there that could have the same said about them, in the typical case the dog can't offer anything to contribute, even if the dog wanted nothing more.
> HTML will be much better for data heavy sites in this case

I've never seen HTML be smaller than json for data representation. For any kind of data. Ever.

[Snip SPAs reasons that aren't inherent to SPA]

> Most of the mobile devices you're talking aren't that powerful, so loading them down with a bunch of JS to run, makes for a really bad for UX.

Even mobile CPUs are more powerful than your average cloud vCPU. They get refreshed much more frequently if for no other reason than the batteries give out.

That doesn't even take into consideration the fact that the server is rendering x requests vs the client's one.

Any spend on server hardware to make it fast will never make up for the network latency vs a well built SPA that can avoid refetching some data again entirely.

Page one, server render is faster. Every subsequent navigation will favor a well built SPA.
I have used markdown with custom lua filters for things like chapter delimiters, non breaking spaces and notes for inserting images. But my setup was kinda wonky as I exported from markdown to ODT and then used LibreOffice to convert it to PDF while adding images to the layout manually as this is impossible to mechanize with LibreOffice.

> Productive wealth is a good thing

You have a lot of faith, it seems, in the ability of the already rich to somehow make better decisions (by some metric) than an arbitrary political process. I don't mind if Jeff Bezos the person exists, but I have no reason whatsoever to want him to have control over the scale of resources and decision-making that he does.
This sounds awesome, and exactly the type of thing that a) I love and b) I'm really good at. I can go very deep in a new thing while also fitting everything into the big picture.
Even in the theoretically trustless world of cryptocurrency, you still need to trust that if you give 1USD to someone in exchange for $1 worth of Bitcoin, they will actually give you that $1 worth of Bitcoin, and vice versa. And the history of cryptocurrency seems to indicate that virtually everybody who has ever occupied that role for cryptocurrency is not worthy of that amount of trust.

Why are we focusing so much on reducing energy usage, rather than making energy, especially green energy, cheaper and more accessible? No one is boiling the oceans to mint BTC.

Bitcoin's value (not only the monetary value of it) scales with global access to energy. So what? Why is that such a problem? What it is, is a convenient scapegoat for the anti-crypto mobs to complain about. Bitcoin is not stealing energy from anything, it is not making it more expensive nor it is the direct cause of global warming: a Bitcoin mined on solar is worth the same as a Bitcoin mined on fossil fuels. We are literally missing the forest for the trees, and to me, this topic is a populist slogan for tech-educated people that want another reason to have the big bad cryptocurrencies.

Global warming is a major threat to our society, and while the major culprits and those that stand to benefit from the status quo continue with impunity, we, the people, are fighting among ourselves on inconsequential topics like Bitcoin energy usage.

Introducing MachinaScript For Robots, a set of tools and a LLM-JSON-based language designed to empower humans in the creation of their own mechanical companions.

With MachinaScript, you can make generative control a wide range of electronics like Arduinos, Raspberry Pis, servo motors, cameras, sensors, and much more. The goal is to make a wide modular generative format more accessible, as no robot design is the same.

It is only possible because of the MachinaScript Synthax, a LLM-JSON-based language that wraps a set of rules for your dear automatons, that is parsed on a computer and sent via serial to your microcontroller of choice.

I'm not saying there aren't advantages to this idea. Eg powering the APs with 120V from the light fixture would mean they can use fiber instead of PoE 2.5G ethernet. That would save me the cost of an extra switch and also reduce power consumption on both sides of the cable. But I'm sure a combined light+AP unit would be expensive enough to make that a moot point. If anything, I'd prefer to sacrifice even more aesthetics and use a bare PCB to save money if I could.

I have used it to kickstart a blogging project that I wish to come back to soon. The Lua inter-op for custom readers, writers and filters is great but I wish there was more editor integration and even perhaps an official IDE/editor with built-in debugging features (probably something already do-able with Emacs but I haven't checked). The only blocker for my project is no support for "ChunkedDoc" for Lua filters [1] which forces me to write more code and a complicated Makefile.

It's kind of impossible to say where this stands with regard to money since we don't know the length of the contract. The really interesting thing here really is that they've abandoned it as an exclusive, which kind of hammers the nail into the coffin of spotify trying to takeover podcasting. It looks a lot like they're basically paying Rogan and taking the ad revenue from across all platforms. This seems great for Rogan though - getting back his reach. But I just don't see how it makes any sense for Spotify other than saving face for their terrible strategic move.

Companies should probably be banned from doing layoffs if they can't show that they are either:

- actively losing money

- shuttering an entire division (that is losing money)

Currently, it just seems like they're going through needless cycles of over-hiring and then layoffs. All while maintaining record profits.
What do you mean? Didn’t llama2’s tos say something about if you had something like 600m users at that current moment in time, you can’t use it? If you don’t, you’re good to go.
On a preemptive OS, all multitasking with (non-CPU) contended resources is, to a certain extent, cooperative. If one task acquires a mutex and then never releases it, no amount of priority-inheritance, highest-locker semantics &c. will fix that. Making everything cooperative increases the analysis needed because the CPU becomes a manually managed contended resource.

In addition, while not being preemptive, it sounds like executors are expected to run in bounded time, and the system triggers an event when the time is exceeded.

Complete systems, not operating-systems, are realtime. Operating systems can be non-realtime (most general purpose schedulers are completely unsuited for hard realtime systems), but at their best only make the design of realtime systems tractable.
You can replace "American white men" with "<insert any group>" and come to the same conclusion.
Joe Rogan is "that guy at the bar." He's fun, bros it up, doesn't challenge you too much, and he totally used to do MMA. Then when he gets a few too many in him he leans close and starts asking "do you really think they went to the moon?" Then the bar closes and you're pretty sure he drove home even though he was hammered.

He fills sort of the same niche as Howard Stern, but Stern was more like that guy who still has coke at 3am and has a crowd around him listening to uncomfortable too-much-information stories because he still has coke. Then when he runs out of coke everyone leaves except the likely sex offenders.

Those are like two Jungian archetypes of that dude you talked to last night for too long, which means they translate nicely into a podcast or talk radio program you listen to for too long.

Rogan used to be a bit better but he's really gone down market since the first Spotify deal. He's probably just chasing the largest audience.

I think Cory Doctorow put it aptly:

> Corporations run on a form of code – financial regulation and accounting practices – and the modern version of this code literally prohibits corporations from treating human beings with empathy. The principle of fiduciary duty to inves­tors means that where there is a chance to make an investor richer while making a worker or customer miserable, management is obliged to side with the investor, so long as the misery doesn’t backfire so much that it harms the investor’s quarterly return.

At just about every tech company I've worked at probably at least 30% of the staff wasn't really needed and didn't contribute much. They were there to take some small amount of workload off the really talented people's plate. In modern times there are more efficient ways to solve than problem than simply throwing man power at it. These companies could have easily cut their workforces 5 years ago with little to no impact to the bottom line but there was just no incentive to rock the boat until economic factors dictated it.

Companies are responding to the AI hype cycle, investing (by laying people off) at the peak. If they were good at market timing, they’d he professional investors, not tech bro’s.

Recent tech layoffs have left many questioning the industry’s stability. However, a closer look reveals that these layoffs are not a sign of economic struggles, but rather a strategic move by tech companies to realign their priorities and invest in the future. The tech sector is pouring billions of dollars into artificial intelligence (AI) while simultaneously implementing workforce reductions, signaling a deliberate shift in focus and strategy.

OPINION:

Generative AI may be headed for the trough of disillusionment.

When everyone and everything has it, what's the novelty? Made in China AI tchotchkes will be cheaper, and people will seek out things that add real meaning to life, instead of a computer-programmed existence (the dream of our sociopath tech-lords). Oh, that would be The Matrix.

And companies will beg techies ( and non-techies! ) to come back.
It doesn't sadly. I had tried to implement that, but couldn't find a provable way to prevent 50/50. It's especially trickier as I can't use an algo with just rows and columns, it has to work on a graph.
And it would need to be fast enough as to not slow the grid generation (which already takes a few seconds on the maximum size).
So I'd love to add this ultimately, but not entirely sure I'll have the resources.

> do I care if crypto miners want to mine at night in west Texas when wind is generating energy and the wholesale cost is negative (I.e. there is really no marginal productive use for that generation)? Absolutely not.

This is complicated though because power grids can resell that slack capacity further away if there’s a persistent surplus and other users will notice (e.g. cheap power really incentivizes overnight EV charging or even industrial users expanding). If all of the slack is being used for unproductive purposes, those positive feedback cycles will be delayed – unlike useful work, there’s no end of cycles which bitcoin mining can use so the potential power consumption is effectively infinite.

> You will be surprised to see how much money you need to pay in order to match the ads numbers.

I'm well aware of that. Advertising is clearly the most profitable online business model. It has a low barrier of entry for users, it scales with the amount of users, and is simple to implement. Companies can collect user data and use it in perpetuity to monetize it in infinite ways beyond just ad impressions. Data is gold.

My point is that it's all corrupt to the core. It's driven by generating wealth for companies over anything else, least of all the well-being of people. It actually relies on manipulating the human psyche, pioneered by the machiavellian mind of Edward Bernays nearly a century ago. It inserts itself as a leech between the goods producer and people, to not only connect producers with interested consumers as its proponents would like us to believe, but to create consumers out of people who wouldn't otherwise be interested. And then the internet came along, and made it more profitable than it's ever been. Oh, and it's also being exploited to spread propaganda, influence elections and topple democracies, but no matter, the charts must go up and to the right.

So, yeah, sorry for the rant, but my point is that there are plenty of ways that companies can monetize their business that doesn't involve advertising. It might not be as easy or profitable, but I have this silly opinion that the well-being of society should be higher priority than generating wealth for shareholders.
