> I think American culture has a weird fetish for fairness. We'll do something that makes everyone worse off because at least it's distributed evenly.

When you phrase it like that, it's not really an American-specific thing. I remember reading about ethological studies on very young children - not in US! - where they would be given a bunch of candy to distribute in various contrived situations. One of those was picking between something like "you get 1 candy and the other kid gets 1 candy" vs "you get 2 candies and the other kid gets 4 candies", and similar arrangements in larger groups. What they found is that there's a very strong bias towards fairness, meaning that kids were pretty consistently willing to end up with less candy themselves if that means that another kid would not get an unfair share. Which, if you think about it, is not an unreasonable trait to evolve in a social species.

Something is deeply wrong in America.

Speaking as someone who finds myself close to the edge at times. My whole generation is on Prozac (myself included). Self-medication is rampant (myself included but improving). There’s a general hopelessness amongst my peers. I don’t think many would say we’re looking at a better, brighter tomorrow.

I could list 100 things that make me feel this way. But it’s more than that. It’s something else. Looking around - this country is exceedingly sick. The vibes are bad. Like how dogs can sense someone untrustworthy.

We’re all told “it gets better”. That’s great. But you don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.

I’m here by shear willpower I guess but it continues to not pay off.
It's historical. In the 80's when an extra 10,000 transistors for decode could be 20% of the chip, ARM had an efficiency advantage. So it got used in certain markets. Which meant chips were designed for that market. So because there were chips specifically designed for the market, they were used. Feedback loop, essentially.

Do 67% of people own a house? I don't think 67% of people own a house.

As I recall, 67% is the percentage of people who live in a house which is owned by somebody who lives in the same house. This includes children, spouses, other dependents, but also boarders.

I'm not sure if you could get from that statistic to the percentage of home owners, especially since, presumably, people who own homes are more likely to have other people they support in the same homes.

We don't have semantic information yet (it's on the roadmap), but in many cases it's sufficient to get that information from the AST by looking where the variable was originally defined.

For example: https://app.grit.io/studio?key=TteyWLNGZGWFIC9EOiCRi

`$x.old($arg)` => `$x.new("method", _, $arg)` where {
$program <: contains `$x = new Thing($_)`
}

---

Long term we want to incorporate more semantic analysis, but for quick rewrites this has been pretty effective for us.

Problem is GP (me) is a dickhead about it.

but frankly, it's not the first time. Github (after purchase by microsoft) did the same thing to my code. They reproduced it and put it on ice in some place in norway. That was the guise right? I mean I am sure they did, but you can bet your ass they're also using my code to train their AI.

Most of it was not licensed. It was publicly available as a portfolio so people would see I write serious code and would hire me.

So then I took down my entire github after being informed I was enrolled, couldn't opt out, etc, and then some OTHER foundation is now scanning my self hosted git repos? That made my blood BOIL!

It's not a book; Britannica is a website now. They might sell you some books if you try, but that's not what they are editing for or producing.

Britannica's advantage is that it's written by experts and edited by professionals. If I want knowledge - for business, for my health, for legal, accounting, car repair, IT - I ask experts.

There are downsides - it's not nearly as large as Wikipedia, and it doesn't engage the crowd. But I know someone with expertise verified the facts, and the completeness, correctness, and consistency (the three C's of accuracy) of each article.

Yeah, that’s correct. SVG is not a good delivery format, I agree. It is an excellent intermediate format, like a ProRes encoded video is.

It’s tough. We’re chatting on a website with no graphics besides a low resolution letter Y logo. The most exciting UX development maybe ever in the history of computing is a chat interface. On mobile, it’s all scrolling through rectangles. It’s not looking good for the designers.
When it comes to certificates, the specification explicitly says that only www.something.example is correct† even if in DNS terms that should be www.something.example.

Thus it's misissuance (ie against the rules, you'd need to stop doing it or risk being distrusted) to issue that site a certificate for "www.something.example." instead of (or as well as) "www.something.example" and I'd guess that since we have CT (and thus can see mistakes in almost real time) nobody does that.

Of course a web browser could, AFAIK just accept that www.something.example is the correct name to see in the certificate, it seems Firefox at least does that and perhaps all popular browsers do.

Unfortunately the web server also needs to understand how this works and the linked site reports that (at least when it was written) Apache httpd doesn't. That wouldn't surprise me, Apache httpd was probably a great web server a quarter century ago, but not today.

† I think it's in PKIX somewhere? I might be wrong about exactly where it is, but it's something people have thought about and decided will be settled to work the way it actually does in practice today and too bad if we don't like that.

> In geological terms, we are still very much coming out of an ice age

In geological terms, AGW aside, the earth was still very much within the Late Cenozoic Ice Age and has been for 34 million years.

In glaciation terms the earth was swinging out of an inter glaciation period and due to return to glaciation and decreasing global tempretures and increasing ice coverage.

Thanks to human activity increasing the insulation attributes of the atmosphere mean tempretures are increasing and global mean tempretures will increase past what we (as a human species) have experienced in our brief time on the planet.

> far from peak temperatures that we know have happened before.

It's true - we're a long way from living on the surface of a near molten ball of rock with no breathable atmosphere, as the earth once was.

> It seems like a smart — if long term — strategy, since today’s young hobbyists are likely going to be a significant number of tomorrow’s founders, choosing the software their companies use.

The same argument is made for student licenses.

My life experience is different: people who love to learn about topics where such expensive software is commonly used very commonly don't get a job in the respective industry, or at least don't get a position where they can choose the software that the company uses. To put it somewhat polemically: people who love to learn all the time are often nerds; these people typically don't end in management positions where they can buy software for the company.

Also, highly smart people often learn about very different things (e.g. software for 3D graphics and PCB design), but there is hardly any industry/departmentment where software from very different areas is used.

In other words: the whole argument "today’s hobbyists/students will in the future choosing the software their companies use" does in my opinion not hold. Better respect that hobbyists/students form a very passionate user base that is typically rather disjoint with the (less passionate) commercial customers.
As people said, a turning machine has infinite memory and program space. Just checking for context and program position doesn’t solve all cases of never halting.

Good. What all else is at all close to Ukraine? More generally, what else is bigger than Ramstein in Europe?
If Europe had ended poverty before enslaving the rest of the world, it would be a much better world now.

How could anyone argue against that?

A people that were interested in raising others around them out of poverty, before setting off to devastate and enslave other continents, would probably have treated the people they found on those continents much more humanly.

If the european colonial diaspora had set out to advance other places, as opposed to exploiting them, we probably wouldn't have global poverty today.

The "return on investment" of colonizing north america was made by exporting tobacco to europe, clear cutting the north american continent, near extincting major mega-fauna and replacing them with invasive species, and shipping africans to the americas for slave labor.

Considering that a net positive is a dubious conclusion. But of course we have to ask: net positive for whom?

Consider if it is mud. Quicksand. Water.

You will start to sink at various rates. Not because water is “pushing less” than earth. It’s because water is not resisting.

Also, if I am 200 pounds and the earth is pushing up on me with 200 pounds of force, what is generating that force? And where does it go if a helicopter reels me in? The 200 pounds up “force” just vanishes?

6% is the average inflation-adjusted annual return of the US market over the last 150 years.

The specific rate of return will of course vary, year to year and decade to decade but the fact remains that cushy nest eggs aren't only for the rich. Middle class folks can retire in relative comfort and without making drastic sacrifices in the short term.
You’re wrong and you don’t know what you’re talking about, I don’t mean to be rude but it’s more than just inflation. There is a mismatch between number of people and number of housing starts, it’s been this way for 20 years. Estate agents charge more because people will pay it because anyone who can’t afford it goes homeless or moves somewhere else.

In London, where housing delivery has long trailed short of need, the population rose by 3.4 for every new home.

This mismatch of housing supply and need has had drastic consequences for affordability. Rents increased 2.0 per cent per year in England on average over the last decade, according to data from Hometrack. Growth ranged from 2.4 per cent per year in London, where housing delivery was lowest relative to population growth. In the North East, by contrast, housebuilding all but kept pace with population growth and rents grew just 0.7 per cent per year.

https://www.savills.co.uk/blog/article/309803/residential-pr...

The ratio of house prices to earnings, another basic measure of housing affordability, increased from 6.9 in 2010 to 7.8 in 2019 across England. In the North East, where we delivered almost as many homes as people, homes became more affordable. In London, where housing supply falls far short of need, the ratio of house prices to earnings has ballooned.

It depends on public opinion. In some countries people think, taxes must be equal for all, or linearly grow (and with ideally smooth function).

They even sometimes change mind and make experiment with other function.

Many experts think, this is because in these countries, laws made entities tax agents (every entity pay all taxes for all hired people), so people just don't bother how many taxes they pay, and how much time spent to calculate all these things and to fill all papers.
For people who do this, it's more like changing batteries, than modifying them. You only put the batteries into the slots and attach metal wires to the ends - isn't that a lot like changing batteries already? The device which attaches the wires is simple to use: you press it against the connection, press the foot switch and it makes a little spark and now the wire is attached. If you know what you are doing, building a battery pack out of pre-fabricated cells is not scary.

One could actually have both.
Spiral provides a lot of its performance by correctly specifying error constraints, which is a form of safety.
You could specify architectural constraints by hand too, for performance and portability.
(With some good defaults.)

One could technically also get memory and reference safety this way. Which is the opposite of what Rust does for example, where it defaults to do a particular model of referencing memory and makes using any other painful.

It also does not have any constraints on timing or redundancy if necessary.

Automate some of this handling but still keep it explicit and you have a potential winner.
