I'm not convinced it would help that much. One of the main reasons cult recruitment tactics are so effective is that they are also the mechanisms of wholesome human connection. If you universally reject people reaching out to you in these ways you will reject most good faith connections as well. And especially the retention techniques. Cults abuse the forces of social cohesion, but even being aware of that you are still bound by those forces. You will still feel the pain of rejection, the primordial terror of being cast out of your ingroup.

And I suspect it is similar to addiction, where having knowledge of the risk factors and mechanisms is at best a partial protection, at worst false confidence. Just as doctors and social workers become addicted to drugs, people who know how MLMs and cults work still join MLMs and cults.

The only personal-level skills that protect you are deep life shit like being honest and self aware about your own periods of loneliness, pain, vulnerability and being able to identify what is and isn't good for you at those points. You're not effectively teaching that in a high school class I don't think.

> The problem is this type of diet has the greatest likelihood of failing. CICO is hard to maintain.

CICO is hard for people who are fat or who will become fat. It is not true it is hard. It is poor impulse control, not lack of willpower.

> There is scant to zero literature to suggest exercising raises metabolism. Recent research by Herman Pontzer shows the opposite, that calories burned with exercise are negated later through lowered BMR and NEAT. So if you do a 400-calorie run and then eat a 400 calorie cookie, you will still get a net 400 gain, or close to it.

Nonsense, this is a lie to make obese people not exercise. Anyone who has exercised knows this is fake news. By perpetrating fake "science" you are also a source of demotivating people to improve. It is disgusting to post this. Look at a runner, your fake "science" busted. The Hadza are as genetically removed from other humans as possible (including their distance from other African peoples).

Disagree. People are going to rely on these things, and when they make stupid but confident mistakes (i.e. they produce bullshit), they are dangerous.

An AI system that produces right answers 90% of the time but 10% of the time drives your car into a lane divider, or says "there are 4 US states that start with 'K'" or "Napoleon was defeated at the Battle of Gettysburg" is worse than useless: It's dangerous.

As long as we call it a bullshit parlor trick, no problem. But unfortunately people are making important decisions based on these things.

> Not sure why x-rays are still being used when there appears to be better and safer alternatives

It all has to do with how medical billing is structured. Xrays were already cheap before the current model was put in place so they are the go to method for diagnostic. Even though there are better ubiquitous options available, price fixing keeps those out of reach for triage and simple diagnostics.

It's bewildering Google never attempted to monetize (the now legacy) Assistant by forking a more feature-rich branch and charging willing users for access. In theory it would've enabled clearer signals on what features users valued - instead of the "boil the ocean" approach by trying to build upon everything, which ultimately led to a generally subpar experience.

Now with the additional $10/month bundled into this "Google One Premium AI" subscription, looks like they're finally looking to monetize. But it feels too bloated of a bundle; why didn't they opt for creating separate bundles or add-ons for Workplace (aka business) users and Assistant (aka consumer) user?
This has to be what it's like at Google. You have marketing on one end of a table and developers in another county.

Long long overdue. Baker did nothing but see Mozilla decline while she arranged pay raises for herself and fired engineers. Should have been canned for incompetence a decade ago.
Thank goodness. Mitchell Baker was running Mozilla into the ground while stuffing her pockets.

The fact that they acknowledged Firefox at all gives me some hope.

I’m dedicated to Linux but I like my iPhone. iPhones are more-or-less standalone devices nowadays. They can backup straight to iCloud. The only thing I’d need to borrow a Mac for, as far as I know, is a factory-reset.

I last used iTunes on windows in like 2010 or so, I think. It was pretty awful. Although, it did have a neat feature, you could share your library over the lan, so it was neat to listen to other people’s music in a dorm. I’m sure they’ve removed that feature by now, it was too good to be true.
I think practicing scenarios and developing fallback heuristics and patterns could help. You don’t need to think when you have a rule to fall back on (“I never, ever buy anything from a salesman who approaches me unsolicited, period, end of story”) and a lot of people just need practice saying no and “being rude” (when someone else is in fact already being rude, by trying to get you to do something that’s a bad idea)

Imagine a seesaw, with "happy employees" on one end and "satisfied clients" on the other. Which side do you think tips the scales in today's competitive business world?
For years, the pendulum has swung between two seemingly opposing forces: employee-centricity and client-centricity. Companies have struggled with the million-dollar question: should we prioritize the well-being of our employees or the satisfaction of our customers?
But what if we tell you it's a false dichotomy? What if both employee and client happiness are not opposing forces, but rather intertwined parts of a successful business model?

There was the crash of 2022, seeing a nearly 30% haircut nationally while at the bottom. For comparison, the US housing crash of the oughts saw a peak decline of 33%. Everyone in banking was surely around to see that major correction happen.

Granted, the market had ramped up so quickly, and then crashed so fast, that the number of underwater mortgages was likely small – and probably haven't come up for renewal yet. So, you're right that there isn't much management experience, and may never be.

I cannot read the submission article, but I can read the statement from Mozilla/Mitchell Baker (https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/a-new-chapter-for-mozill...), which doesn't mention either "data" nor "privacy".

It seems mostly to focus on "Vision", "Strategy", "Outstanding Execution" and other corporate-speak stuff.

Anyone who worked with Laura Chambers (new, interim CEO) in the past want to share what kind of changes one could expect from them? More business/marketing stuff or back to engineering focus?

Mitchell is not leaving and stepped down on her own. I hope that this still means a good change for Mozilla.
Tens of thousands of NK artillery pieces is a propaganda.
Every PM who worked on iTunes should be cancelled from the tech industry. Having iTunes on your resume should be the Mark of Cain as far as I'm concerned. I've never had the displeasure of working on a more terrible piece of software in my life and it shouldn't be this bad. Shame on everyone who worked on it, even though given Apple stock price, they are likely 8 or 9 figure millionaires.

On the other hand Apple Music already has audio streaming and playback and a Library mode so should Podcasts write their own?

While yeah debundled separate apps will make probably the main use case of what was the bundled app better it also likely leads to stagnation and buggier experiences over time in the apps where the less popular features were debundled into.

Like all knowledge and talent required to code the Audiobooks app is the same as whats required to code the Music app so which team would you rather be on given the choice.

I’m liking Jellyfin’s music support for my giant collection of FLACs (other formats are supported). I can pull it up on any browser (don’t need to install anything on my work PC). There’s also an iOS app called Fintunes that provides a great native music-listening experience.
Also, their whole business is something like “Are you the perfect mark? Then you can pay me to help you.”
Because once an AI becomes proficient at formalized logic, it:

1. Completely stops hallucinating, since we can demand it to internally prove its claims before showing the answer;

2. Stops outputting incorrect code (for the same reason);

3. Starts being capable of outputting complete projects (since it will now be able to compose pieces into a larger code);

4. This is also what is needed for an AI to start self-improving (as it will now be able to construct better architectures, in a loop).

That's why I argue getting the AI competent in logical reasoning is the most important priority, and we'll have no AGI until it does. After all, humans are perfectly capable of learning how to use a proof assistant.

Moreover, if an AI can't learn it no matter how hard it tries, you can argue that there is at least one human capability that the AI can't replicate, thus it isn't an AGI.
If you're outside a city and hopping on a freeway, you're obviously not going to be able to walk that.

I would never recommend more buses - buses suck. Trains and trams though, are great.

I'll also take European and Australian communities over the parking lots that are American communities any day of the week. I'll also take the high-speed rail between London and Paris (and a host of other EU/UK examples) rather than driving.

Europe is absolutely an example of how you don't have to have a terrible experience if you have good public transport. London by train is ~2.5 hours, and by car it's 5-6 hours at a minimum.

Hi, one of the Unison creators here. We've held off working on FFI until the JIT compiler[1] is completed since FFI is closely connected to the runtime.

There's some interesting subtleties with FFI in a distributed programming language, so I'll ramble about that here in case it's interesting to you. :)

So, in Unison, all values are serializable, including functions and their dependencies. This is a key superpower that enables a lot of the neat stuff we do. As long as those functions are written in pure Unison, we can easily serialize them, deploy them on the fly, etc. But when we add an FFI, the story changes - the sender may have some C library in their environment, and that library may not exist at the recipient node. The two nodes could be different platforms, one Mac, one Linux, and the library may have been written specifically for Linux, say!

So when we add FFI, we will likely be doing it in a different way than most languages. Functions that use FFI will have this tracked in the their type, using our effect system. You'll be able to use whatever C libraries you want in your local computations, but if you want to sent those values around, you need to be sending them to a place that supports that same set of FFI effects, since the C library and its dependencies can't literally be deployed on the fly in the same way as pure Unison code. In our cloud platform, nodes are typed based on what effects they support and we'll probably add a way to create new node pools that have access to whatever C libraries you want.

In "regular" programming, we're not used to thinking about "the execution environment" as a thing that's represented explicitly within the program. Instead, there's an assumed execution environment (which includes the set of native libraries, etc) and you get runtime errors if you run a program and some of the assumed execution environment is missing (like a shared library, say). For the most part, people have been okay with this, but it's already somewhat of a problem for languages that target the browser and the backend. The language may be statically typed, but now the type system is not tracking some key information - namely, is this a function I can call here (if I'm expecting this code to compile to JS) or is it a function that only can be called for backend code? In a distributed setting with heterogeneous nodes with different capabilities, this problem is even more pronounced, which is why we track this information in the types and plan to do so once we add FFI.

Hope that was interesting!

As far as overdose and addiction rates Portland isn't actually doing any worse than other major west coast cities, and is actually better than Seattle. Fent and meth are a scourge whether we toss users in jail over it (where they still have access if they have $, btw) or not. The biggest problem directly caused by measure 110 for the city and residents imo is that people are using openly in public spaces with impunity, as well as being extremely intoxicated in public without repercussions.

We have been dealing with this more or less effectively with alcohol for ages.. you are allowed to use it but you can't be openly drinking in public and if you are disruptively intoxicated in public this is also a crime. Why should it be any different with decriminalized hard drugs? Obviously addressing the root of addiction problems is a critical step, but in the mean time there is no reason to give up on having safe and pleasant community spaces just because the criminal justice system can no longer victimize small time drug users for simple possession.

In what form does subscribing to the simulation theory imply "higher power"?

Oxford defines the term as "a god or divine being."

Why is it so absurd to think that there have existed or do exist beings with more intelligence and computational resources than humans?

It seems MORE absurd to me to think that, across all of the infinite universe(s), humans are the only intelligent, self-aware creature capable of scientific progress.
I don't get interested when something says "I'm a really useful x". I get interested when it says "I'm a really useful x because y".

These crazy libraries might make sense to you because you've been a JS dev for 15 years. JS is supposed to be a basic building block of the web. React places a learning curve in front of the everyday developer that is effectively impossible. It's fine if it's helpful in edge cases, but it shouldn't be the norm. Basic technology should be accessible.
Perhaps if reducing the complexity was considered an urgent necessity, over hiring more, there would be less complexity and new opportunities would be easier to consider and jump on.

Complexity compounds, so the tradeoff is, continually tame it, or continually hire with less and less impact per employee.

The latter seems to happen a lot when money flows.
