I think a key part of why this was confusing to many back in the day was that the big thing at the time was "client-server computing".

If you wanted to do email on your home computer, you'd [buy and] install an email client.

You wanted to go on AOL? Install the AOL client.

Need to use Lotus Notes? Have MIS send a guy over to install the Notes client.

Wanted to run X programs? Install an X server. What? Seemed weird!

You still hear that terminology some, but nowadays you're much more likely to hear about an email app.
In Romania, we let our Ukrainian neighbors take refuge with us.

Why won't Arabs allow Palestinian refugees in, so that Israel can pursue Hamas without collateral deaths?
Just hit “not interested” on those, the YouTube algorithm is really good at not showing you stuff you tell it not to
Nor it is intended for you to.

It’s meant for situations where you intend to leave AWS for good, not spin up another EC2 instance when you need it, generate terabytes of data and then transfer it out for free.
Surely the FAA has plenty of roles where people with those disabilities could work. It's not like they are trying to add a deaf person to be ATC communication coordinator or a paraplegic to be an emergency firefighter.
Whats to say if you gave an LLM a pre prompt conditioning for things like:
Be curious,
Explore the domain you exist in,
Learn about your environment like your life depends on it,
You are a social creature so when you find out information you like to share it,
Being a social creature, the most practical tool for sharing ideas is language
(these notions among many others are similar pre-conditions for humans behaviour, largely I imagine for survival, but in our case initially informed by emotion rather than language)

And then just feed it endless continuous video of the world from a persons perspective (ie, not just random jumps around scenes)
How is that any different to the way humans developed our own theories and understanding on the universe we found ourselves in? Obviously a video feed isn't quite the same as having a myriad of senses like we have for interfacing with the world. But theres no reason to say newtons laws need touch or smell to be figured out (maybe that is a bad example for not requiring touch, being about mass and force, but you get the point). Learning language and understanding of the world from scratch might depend on having physcial interaction with the world, sure, but thats again just different sets of input training data that a multimodal model can make connections between if there were pressure to do so.

Then you simply prompt the LLM to define the laws it has observed in a way that can use language to transmit the idea.
In the human equivalent, a "prompt" doesn't need to be (but can be) a direct question being asked. It could just be our urge to share ideas, an emotion perhaps that moves us to action.
I don't want to go too far on this thought as it is pure speculation without serious scientific backing, but for the sake of the thought experiment with all this in mind you could even say that brains are much like an LLM that is in a constant state of training & updating, but also being "prompted" from our environment and biological feedback loops being fed in. I don't feel like this idea is even that controversial or remotely original.

The difference is that models of today are already trained on the corpus of human knowledge so they already know all of this instead of having to figure it out. But I don't really see an argument for why an LLM wouldn't be able to crystallise observed patterns into mathematical formulae if it had the appropriate influences that would encourage it to do so. Its just that we don't care to train them inefficiently. I imagine this will be tried in the near future though.

Spaced-repetition and active recall are underutilized tools that can increase your retention of material you deem worth remembering.

Here's an example of how to use it to learn quantum mechanics, but you can imagine how it would translate to technical books for software developers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OFuu4pesKf0

> Or should we have tokens that expire in a reasonable time frame.

And that are single-use.

(Your password reset "magic link" should expire quickly, but needs a long enough window to allow for slow mail transport. But once it's used the first time, it should be revoked so it cannot be used again even inside that timeout window.)

Have you tested various ssh client and terminal combos logging in to Daytona's devcontainers? I noticed that when logging in to DevPod's devcontainers, full-screen apps are glitchy, with one exception: Visual Studio Code's built-in terminal works fine.
I’m not sure about that. Presumably after they’ve died the only person that didn’t want it published has gone, so with only people left that want it punished, is that really such a bad thing?
Really awesome to see that we have collectively decided to double down on huge, wasteful, & dangerous trucks and SUVs. I'm glad that they aren't even pretending that this is eco-friendly, the way most carmakers do.

I wonder how many BYD seagulls, or better yet, ebikes could be made with the electric pack on this honker.
How exactly would someone prove they improved/extended/modified the source?

These sort of copy-left licenses rely an awful lot on good faith, and that does not contend for human nature.

Even if someone could prove it - good luck legally compelling Apple to do anything.
You're assuming that BSD systems would have evolved the same way over the last 35 years. I don't think that's a given. People like to tinker and would have created alternative ${anything}s for BSD systems. And even with a bundled userspace and kernel you still have distros; e.g. PC-BSD did the whole "fat packages" thing 20 years ago, and there have been tons of "distros" based on various BSD systems. Jails weren't created until around the late 90s (1998 or 1999 IIRC), and who knows what that would have looked like if (Free)BSD had massively taken off in the same way Linux did, and who knows if "FreeBSD cgroups" wouldn't be a thing in addition to jails?

Or: all the people that worked on those Linux things wouldn't have worked in a completely different field: they would have worked on BSD, presumably with (roughly) the same interests, and (roughly) the same opinions. Of course it wouldn't be exactly the same, but roughly, from a high level? It would probably be very similar.
I find your company fascinating, having also worked on chips (and chip dev tooling) for much of my career.

> But they want to work on chips, not devtools!

I have long had a gut feeling that there's an entire industry of frustrating tools specifically to keep that industry alive. I once was shocked to learn that my company had bought licenses for a tool specifically to combine multiple IP-XACT specs into one... basically just parsing several XML files and combining their data! Outrageous.

RE orchestration: It's easy-ish now since it sounds like you're starting out with (free) open source tools, but once you start looking at things like license fair-share, you might find yourself starting to build yet-another-Slurm/LSF.

Any reason for buck2 vs bazel? Bazel seems more active (O(thousands) questions on StackOverflow for Bazel vs O(hundreds) for buck).
There is a dilemma for web developers with images loaded from CDNs or APIs. Regular <img> tags can't set an Authorization header with a token for the request, like you can do with fetch() for API requests. The only possibility is adding a token to the URL or by using cookie authentication.

Cookie auth only works if the CDN is on the same domain, even a subdomain can be problematic in many cases.

Looks like, AGI could be just some optimization algorithm, which could survive, grow and copy itself in typical for modern human environment.

So it could be just feature of environment.
What’s wrong with using signed urls and encrypting the object with a unique per user key. It’s adds some cpu time but if it’s encrypted it’s encrypted.

Neuromorphic computing is cool, but not new tech. However, using a neuromorphic spiking architecture to run LLMs seems new. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a paper associated with this work, so there's no deeper information on what exactly they're doing.
ImHex

“A Hex Editor for Reverse Engineers, Programmers and people who value their retinas when working at 3 AM.”

I actually used it not too long ago to inspect why a mp4 file wasn’t valid. The pattern language that they have is quite nice and having sections of the hex highlighted and being able to see what structures they represent and what data was on those structures was very useful!

It doesn't have to be even Sarmat; it could be Poseidon - options are plentiful. I doubt anyone would have the balls to respond to a nuclear attack. The issue is who's crazier to do the first one, and if one truly believes Russia and Putin are crazy evil, then one should act respectively! So far, I don't see intelligent behavior from the West - I see arrogance, which always has a high cost!
The article is a bit confusing, and the photo with the station's name doesn't help,

The station names and place-name signs, when we see them written with Latin characters, are using romanization Hepburn rules since many decades ago, shinjuku stay shinjuku.

What is happening is that at the same time, the Ministry of Education had been officially teaching different romanisation rules to the Japanese, denominated Monbusho system, which is slightly different with some latin syllables, like si (shi in Herpburn) or ti (chi in Herpburn), but now they are officially going to step towards Herpburn rules, the same as those used in the place-name signs when are written with Latin characters.
If they are intentionally finding information that is outside the scope of their own role and then exporting the information itself as opposed to actually learning it then that would be clearly stealing trade secrets. Of course there are some lesser actions that would be in a gray area.

Experience Building a Real Time OS Kernel in Smalltalk [pdf]
Yeah, the only unsafe code right now is using this trait to prevent some duplicate bounds checking when reading/writing to memories that wasn't being optimized by the rust compiler. Shouldn't be too much of a performance difference for code that's not too heavy on memory access, made about a 5-10% difference for the selfhosted benchmark if I remember correctly though.
Wax sheet transfers, masks for creating electronic circuit boards or screen printing skateboard decks, temporary one-off shirts, stickers, transparencies, labels, etc.

The calcium that's part of the plaque doesn't break down either. It stays there, despite being understandable.
Very cool, thanks for sharing. Despite never actually hearing about 'stacked prs' before, I've often encountered the issue and it makes me wonder why a solution like this isn't actually part of Git itself.
I absolutely understand what you're saying. And you might be right in this particular case. But there's a difference between the "you" you have in mind here and figures of literally world-historical significance.

I doubt the "morbid curiosity of the general public" could ever succeed as a justification on ethical grounds, but as a literature scholar, I can say that there are usually other purposes in view. At some point, the work of an author like García Márquez becomes an important part of the world-wide human record and historians who study that record are not doing so out of morbid anything. In this case, we're trying to understand the evolution of one of the most important authors (and associated literary movements) in the twentieth century.

I've seen these kinds of decisions being made on the scholarly side (opening archives, publishing letters, etc.). I can tell you they aren't made lightly, and one of the ways we tend to adjudicate these dilemmas is by weighing the "privacy and last wishes" of an individual against the desire of the broader culture to understand itself and its history. Sometimes that latter claim isn't strong enough. But sometimes it really is.
I agree, 'corporations' is definitely a better fit for the argument I'm trying to make.

It's perfectly fine if making a lot of money is not the most important thing to you personally. However, your company will obviously have to at least be at least breaking even in order to continue to exist so that it/you can do the things that you do care about.

From that viewpoint, profitability (defined as 'at least breaking even', as opposed to 'maximizing $$') is still the most important thing because the very existence of the company depends on it.
Maybe, maybe not. For this sort of test there is a huge selection bias since only people planning to work in math or an adjacent field bother to take the test. If you gave the same test to the general population this wouldn’t happen. I’m guessing most selective schools treat it as sort of a pass/fail, and I’m not sure whether that’s problematic for them or not.
Another one I saw recently that looks really promising in this vein is gql.tada, which provides some very nice LSP support. Anything in the TS space endorsed by Matt Pocock immediately gets my attention!

I think it’s pretty obvious that if it weren’t for DEI then the plane wouldn’t have lost a tire.
I may not make my point clearly - but I have seen from the inside how companies reluctantly use the Linux kernel because it's the industry standard and the board support package comes with Linux.

If BSDs had won, there would have been very little incentive to upstream patches or provide source code to customers, but a lot of incentive to pitch the vendors proprietary additions as something special. Every company selling a solution would have been tempted to close off the source and not give anything back. Back then, it was a knee-jerk reaction to keep as much as possible in-house.

Everything begins with hardware support.

The standard distributions also all used glibc and GNU utilities which is also GPL. For the longest time all standard distributions were based on either RedHat or Debian.

I think Linux shaped the industry in very special ways which would not have come naturally in a non-GPL world. Things today are by-and-large extremely open, with github etc being almost a force of nature, but my hunch is that this outcome was not a given which would have just have happened in some kind of manifest-destiny way. I think the world could easily have tipped into a much more proprieraty path without GNU and Linux.
Over/under on what year it will actually ship to customers? If they are targeting late 2026 for the R2,then my most optimistic huess is late 2028 for small volumes of the R3, to ramp up through 2029. Seems almost silly to announce it this early.

My guess is they'll need an additional $4-6 billion to make it to then, even if they aggressivle cut costs and increase margins
It is NATO that is fighting in Ukraine. It is they who have been active in Ukraine since 2008. Without NATO’s active involvement so many Ukrainians would not be dead.

Canada joining Warsaw pact with the prospect of Russian missiles and troops stationed there and KGB organising a coup to remove their PM to install a puppet will elicit a similar (or perhaps worse given the track record) response from the US.

And yes NATO tried to pull the same Ukraine stunt in South Ossetia.

> What point is there in satisfying the wishes of someone that’s already dead?

I'd say the law is a good reference for that. Some countries legislate inheritance and related topics different from others. Some let the person decide exactly what happens with their inheritance and under which conditions, others have more generic rules to go to the next of kin and don't have the concept of wishes.
Michelangelo burned as many of his sketches as possible days before his death in a similar attempt, some biographers believe, to control his posthumous reputation.
More like all info(and therefore rent on it) needs to be in the hands of American rent collectors. Its a stupid, late and irrelevent bill because info is not the issue, when info is exploding and overflowing. Attention is the issue. Attention is scarce and finite. It has been so fully exploited it has lost its value entirely. As more things that need Attention dont receive it, systems auto unravel. No Chinese or Russians required. An architecture of Attention allocation is the real need of the hour.
>But saying "this is fair use" is no more incorrect than saying "this is red"

No, they are different. "fair use" is a legal term. It is not like saying "I use it like this, I think it is fair!", the term "fair use" literally is a legal term that means a particular thing in the court of law.

It makes sense for mouse scrolling to target whatever the mouse is pointing at, just like all the other mouse buttons. Keyboard scrolling needs to use the current input focus to select a target because you can't point with the keyboard.
Plus a tire doesn’t affect the plane’s ability to fly so spending some extra time in the air isn’t dangerous. And it gives the pilots more time to assess the situation and plan.

It’s likely less disruptive to ATC at SFO too to not have them circling if they don’t have to.
Your entire argument is based off the propagandized idea that "China is our mortal enemy".

Should we cut off all tourism/business travel between China and the Wests? Cease all commercial activities? Declare war? Wait we should ask China to close the 9000 Starbucks in their country first.

Your opinion, while fairly popular amongst propagandized Americans, is not supported by hard facts..

And your argument of "all Chinese nationals could be spies means all Chinese nationals are working as spies" is absolutely illogical.

Going off some website [0]; unless I've been badly mislead, effectively nobody in Europe wants them. Looks like Nokia is leading the pack of desirable phones with nearly 1 person in 100 (not really that good, but close enough) thinking it is the phone for them.

Or it would be if Nokia's mobile phone division hadn't been bought out by the Americans. So technically even that is a US brand these days. Seems fair to count that as European though, presumably they still have offices in the EU.

Well they've solved half the problems that EU companies face.

This is great, and I mean no disrespect, but aren't most servers written in anything but TypeScript? Java, Python, Ruby, .Net, Go, etc.? I recognize that changing it from "most servers" to "most GraphQL servers" brings in TypeScript, but I think that underscores the point I'm trying to make. Most HTTP APIs are REST (I think...that's worth checking) and will use something like Spring Boot, MuleSoft, Django, RoR, etc. In "enterprise" it's mostly going to be Java with Spring Boot or MuleSoft, or .Net. To have more GraphQL APIs, that's where the big game is: converting those REST APIs to GraphQL, or at least gradually (or not so gradually) persuading enterprises to switch from REST to GraphQL. With Spring Boot and MuleSoft, there's already a relatively easy story there: Spring GraphQL, Netflix DGS, MuleSoft Datagraph, graphql-java, etc.. There's probably something similar in the other ecosystems (Python, .Net, Ruby, etc.) You get to keep most of your code and development practices, but you do add in a few new libraries and you do write your code a little differently. So I just struggle to see what the audience is for TypeScript servers. Just my two cents.
Most people really don’t seem to understand that social media is more powerful than nuclear weapons and can be used to wage war just as effectively. The US government has been completely asleep at the wheel in combatting this. I hope they’re starting to wake up.
