> People who suffer for neurodivergency does not have different mental mappings than those who are neurotypical. Also, the way they construct their own world does not differ from neurotypical.

You would be surprised.

> The mind process you have described is pretty standard, even using some different things to recover information instead of saving it.

Well, I'm glad that it seems accurate at least. I was trying to describe a "standard" process, after all.

I should let you know, though, that my brain doesn't work that way. Reason why I say I'm biased is because I don't see what I described as a particularly interesting way to live life, so my description of it might be overly cynical / insulting.

> There is no neurodivergent path of extracting information and there is no neurodivergent understanding of reality or neurodivergent thought process.

I don't know about a neurodivergent path of extracting information either, but you should know for a fact that certain neurotypes, such as autistic ones, do have a different thought process than normal.

When I think about something, my brain will also pull up every possible related thing and assemble an entire picture for me automatically. This is usually called something like "increased associative ability". I'm just very good at considering very large quantities of facts simultaneously.

It's not the same as being reminded of something I know. It's recalling every thing I know simultaneously that could possibly have any effect or be related in any way. Anything that could possibly have relevance.

I get that "for free" as a part of my neurotype. A neurotypical person would likely have to do that consciously or go through some sort of mental process in order to reproduce the same result. I don't have to do that. It happens automatically and instantly.

But because it happens automatically, I can end up looking really awkward because I tend to not be conscious of my processing delays. For example, someone asks me a question, I go "what?" and then give them an answer anyway before they can repeat it. For a second I thought I didn't hear the question, but it was just processing in the background.

Everything processes in the background for me. Thoughts just evolve on their own, draw from relevant memories on their own. All I really have to do is watch.

Try telling me that everyone's thought process works that way.

A friend was an LAPD detective for 30 something years. Now retired. Extremely nice person.

He emphatically told me I should never, ever, ever talk to the Police. Even if I witness a hit and run and just happen to be standing there and they walk over to me. Any one of 10,000 scenarios where the Police ask me for something, or want me to give information about something (even if I wasn't there).

They are actively searching for someone to blame, and if you happen to say the wrong words while trying your utmost to be helpful, they'll happily pin it on you.
In American AEGIS systems, the main AN/SPY-* radar would detect the missiles at distance and surface-to-air missiles would be fired at them. If failed, CIWS systems such as this Phalanx, SeaRAM, Goalkeeper, AK-630... would be activated, and hopefully it autonomously notices incoming supersonic object and engages it.

These systems aren't designed to be left on all the time just in case, but has to be put into standby mode at the beginning of a combat and un-leashed as needed. Moskva wasn't paying attention to the situation and all these equipment were visibly in stored, powered down state in leaked photos. Among suspected reasons were that the sailors were lazy, the Neptune was technically out of engagement range but upper atmospheric phenomenon allowed acquisition by luck, therefore the ship wasn't expecting it, etc.

This is true, those social expectations are in place. But I think it's worth noting that it generally doesn't happen this way in practice. Even though women have entered education and the work force, often in higher numbers than men, they are still doing much more additional unpaid labour than men in every country in the world [0].

Would it be fair to say that women have experienced the effects we're talking about to a greater degree?

I’m a bit more receptive to offline messages if they’re targeted adequately. They can see my interests by skimming my LinkedIn, GitHub and StackOverflow accounts and contacting me via social media or by email is fine if their product is somewhat relevant to my work or hobbies. However, asking me to spend my time trialing their “new super-cool Kubernetes offering” is a huge nope. Especially if that interaction happens over the phone.
I made some LLM-powered text-adventure games: https://cosmictrip.space/gameannouncement

And I'm working on a webapp that is a kanban board where LLM and human collaborate to build features in code. I just got a cool thing working there: like everyone, having LLM generate new code is easy but modifying code is hard. So my attempt at working on modifying code with LLM is starting with HTML and having GPT-4 write beautfulsoup code that then makes the desired modification to the HTML file. Will do with js, python via ast, etc. No link for this one yet :) still in development.

The moment a police officer breaks the law, he's a "criminal". The moment you have that third beer and drive home a bit sooner than you should, you're a "criminal".

Perhaps we should get away from using "criminal" as a dehumanizing term like it's a career path, like it's an us vs them. There are indeed "career criminals", but the majority of people who have ever broken the law have the same sets of motivation and desires and choices as those who haven't.
That's not the problem. If the police don't want to comply with a suspect's request for a supervisor, they can say "no". They shouldn't need to lie to the suspect about who they're talking to and what their roles are; that's an abuse of their position.

>thats the only way an adversarial system works

Really, it shouldn't be an adversarial system against the law-abiding citizenry.
I got to see this world firsthand recently, though not as extreme, and while, at least, trying not to make this system worse.

I was rear-ended while stopped. Other driver was (otherwise) pleasant, had insurance. Made a huge dent in my bumper. Really shocking, but I felt fine and could go about my night with nothing but emotional damage. (My city doesn't even send police if there are no injuries and both cars are driveable.)

Everyone told me I should "get checked out", in case there was non-obvious injury, which I did, at an urgent care place, which charged more than it should, but not a crazy amount. The doctor confirmed I was unhurt from it.

Because I didn't know how much injury I had when filing the claim, I just answered "yes" on the form for that part, planning to fill in details later.

About two months after the accident, I got an email from their insurer offering me $1000 compensation plus up to $5000 toward any medical claims I could document (conditioned on waiving further claims against the other party or insurer).

My (very naive, paladinesque) instinct was to contact them and say, "Oh geez, come on, there wasn't even a real medical issue, just cover the doctor bill for the exam and we can forget about it."

I asked my friends for advice, and the consensus was, "No way, man, you gotta take them for all they're worth! Really play it up! They don't want to pay for litigation, you can easily milk more out of them! Giving up the right to sue alone has gotta be worth $5000, easily!" (Spoiler: I didn't do that.)

I was gobsmacked. Really? This is the kind of world we live in, where it's expected that you use the threat of the crappy court system to play up injuries?

Remember: I didn't even have to document anything. I just answered "yes" to the injury part, and that was enough to spook them into that overgenerous offer.

This should really scare you. Litigation is so overbloated that you'll get a "sucker's" offer of $1000 just for asserting injury with no documentation. That should scare you. It means the inflated costs appear throughout the system and pump up insurance costs.

In grad school I started taking all my notes in Sublime with the Unicode-Math mod. I can effortlessly type any unicode characters with "\alias". I've installed that on all my computers since then because it's so easy and convenient.

\int \pi \geq \forall x \underbar \overbar \prime \^2 \therefore \pm \psi \implies \sqrt \2/3 y \approx \Omega

produces

∫π ≥ θ ∀ x̱̅′² ∴ ±ψ ⟹ √⅔y ≈ Ω

I even made my own mod to shorten the aliases of the most commonly used symbols. I long ago gave up trying to memorize all my notes. I can type as fast as I can write and then everything is easy to read and easy to search and instantly synced to cloud without having to transcribe anything after the fact. I had several professors ask me to show them how to set it up.
That’s quite premature, but even if we are looking at a personal library containing only personal writings, you’d be looking at a massive increase of information on the ancient world, like a neural map of a single ancient mind that contained all their experiences and thoughts.

The reason I'd say assigning a CVE is the right call is that the "easy to misuse" leads to a potential security problem here because of the way glibc handles the function that you give it.

Case in point: You can make the same error in Java (I think it's even included in the docs for Comparators that you shouldn't do a-b, because of integer overflow/underflow), but it cannot lead to an out-of-bounds read/write. And that's because Java (~glibc) handles the comparison function that you give it differently.
So can this guy produce a signature that Satoshi's public key will verify?

Not all expenses are deductible, or 100% deductible in one year.

The biggest issue we've seen in software was the 2017 tax act, affecting software R&D starting in 2022. Depending on how you classify those expenses, you could have a sizeable tax bill, even without any 'profit'. But even hardware - that's typically going to be amortized over minimally a few years.

Bring in $200k in revenue. Spend $20k on hardware. You may only get to deduct $4k of that hardware expense in each of the next 5 years.
You'd want to use a KYC'd L2 that is still secured by the L1. The consortium would just validate transactions on the L2, and the security overhead is payed for by publishing to L1, so no need for validators actually validating and retaining blocks/data. Just a single. or multiple centralized sequencers. That way you also still have access to liquidity if you want additional KYC'd financial services (like for services using USDC), while also having the benefit of a closed carefully monitored system.

Depends on the query type, but, hypothetically, lots!

As a purely theoretical example, I could define a (useless) DNS zone to contain, for each valid host name, one A record for every valid IPv4 address and one AAAA record for every valid IPv6 address, send an AXFR (zone transfer) query, and receive a response containing ≈2^32 + ≈2^128 IP addresses for each of its 36·37^62 + 36·37^61 + ⋯ + 36·37 + 36 hosts.

(Some DNS query types, such as AXFR, can split responses across any number of individually length-limited DNS messages.)

Gcc's std::sort has always had this "bug" for bad comparators, doing "x <= y" instead of "x < y" is enough to cause out of bounds read and writes. This isn't fixed because it's undefined behaviour.
IME it helps tremendously on close calls where the leader needs to pick a side, and the finance/sales/legal people have very clear numbers or other quantitative data and Eng has more subjective and hard to quantify concerns like quality.
The point of the 737max was that it was a brownfield design which wouldn't require recertification by airlines of all the pilots who are certified for 737min planes.

A 7B7 greenfield narrow body plane would probably have been faster to design and a better plane in lots of "don't lie to the pilot and fly into the ground when a sensor is busted" ways, but would have required all airlines to re-certify their pilots, which is both expensive and would have caused the airlines to consider airbus and boeing on the merits...

> The former can delve a bit into what experiments were tried and abandoned and can give a lot more meaning to the final result.

I haven't found this to be true at all. Commits don't tell me anything other than when the coder left their desk for the moment. When there's a policy that allows people to have a "rough, ugly history", where a coder chooses to commit is completely arbitrary. I would argue that the clean, crafted story is the only helpful one.

You can argue that a coder shouldn't be committing unless they are at a natural milestone that can be annotated, but I would consider that the "crafted" story.

Here in Sweden we have a solution called BankID that is pretty much that. To get the key the first time you need to go physically to a location to identify yourself, after that you can use your BankID to get a new one when your first is about to expire(this is basically rolling your private cert)

Never heard of any successful identity thefts in this system, except where someone has been tricked into signing something with their BankID that they shouldn't have. That's pretty hard to defend against on a systematic level though, at least in a way that's fool-proof.

I was happiest when I had a quiet separate office with AC and temperature control. It was about 15 minutes walk from my home. I would definitely return.

But I don't think I would have ever chance for something similar. Now all offices are open space and housing unaffordable close to offices in my area.

So I will be probably working remotely forever. Which is OK.
Yeah ok roast potato was a bad (not a) example, I got hung up searching for a verb+noun one and lost track.

'pocket picker' illustrates my point though, you swapped the verb for noun form, and it became the other way around.

Agreed. The article has almost nothing to with the headline. The article is about copyleft compliance. It is not about "Without software right to repair, your devices are not secure". That is a much larger topic than the article itself which is about auditing that if you're using copyleft software that you're complying with the license. The article itself is not calling for a right to repair all software in all devices.
Admittedly poor phrasing, thanks for pointing that out. I meant more "core language development" rather than Rust specifically.

A quick search shows they spent almost $40 billion last year on development expenses. I'd like to imagine the alternate reality where even just $100mil of that was spread out across various core language organizations.
That's much less impactful though. There's a term of art in interrogation "showing the tools" that is intended to get a person to comply with your wishes. "If you are found guilty" is far less impactful than "We have evidence that you are guilty". The purpose of these interrogations is to secure the conviction, not to discover the truth.

Ironically these techniques work better against the innocent than criminals. The criminals know that the cops lie and that simply shutting up is often a sufficient defense. The innocent get bamboozled and end up with jail time.

I think that means you were very fortunate. For me, 2 years at a community college was essential for getting my career in tech off the ground. Learning to write at the college level, being able to read/search/cite journals, and the practice of being able to synthesize a bunch of information into a cohesive document and/or presentation opened a ton of doors for me.

I get the impression some people figure this stuff out either through more demanding work in high school or from having smart parents who inculcate this knowledge into their kids. For me, I didn't have that.

This is the usual blockchain stuff, with all the usual blockchain downsides of having unknown, untrusted actors do the actual work. I can imagine some really-low-stakes LLM applications be happy with lowest-cost bidder, where you don't care if your inputs get stolen or if the system suddenly starts returning nonsense on some types of queries.

But I cannot imagine that anyone who really cares about quality will let some random 3rd-party "chatbot validator" product choose if the requests should go to "Anthropic's LLM" or "George's LLM".

Roughly a quarter of drivers are maniacs, and drive until there is another car actually impeding their progress, or the get a ticket.
