It goes further than just that -- for instance, lets say your data looks like this:

[
"foo bar/2322",
"foo baz/4223",
"foo blah/2232",
...
]

And you need to reformat that into:

[
"bar 2322: foo",
"baz 4223: foo",
"blah 2232: foo",
...
]

You can absolutely use a regular expression find/replace to solve this. But using multicursors, you can just highlight the first "foo ", then hold Ctrl+D to select all instances, then hit right arrow key so that your cursors are at "foo |bar/2322" (and nothing is selected) et al, then use shift+right arrow key to select bar, baz, blah, and all other substrings, then use ctrl+X to cut that list to your clipboard. Hit delete key to get rid of the /s and add a space so you can keep the fields separated. Then, use ctrl+arrow to move your cursors to just before foo ("|foo /2322"), paste, hit space. Now you have "bar foo 2322". Repeat the same action to cut all the "foo" substrings, then move your cursor to the end, now type ": " and then paste.

You get the idea. It sounds complex, but these are all just comprised of the same fundamental editing patterns-- all of the cursors act as if you had just that one cursor when you press the keys. You have to play with multicursors to really appreciate their power.

Most of the time, someone who is well versed with multicursors and their editor's cursor shortcuts (arrow keys, page up/down, shift/ctrl arrow keys, etc) will be able to complete these sort of textual manipulations much faster than using find/replace.

My discoveries:

It remembers what being in the water and being outside water is, inside water bodies it continues holding the space stroke, allowing it to float,

It knows in water bodies you can't collide with blocks to jump, thus it holds the "space" stroke.

It has on a level, goal seeking behaviour, it focuses on reaching specific positions , first it turns it's head, it tries to go to specific co-ordinate, if there are blocks, it backs off (likely to look at surrounding) , then it attempts other route.

It learns pretty quickly, after only-once seeing the effect of holding the space key in a body of water, it can immediately do it again,

This whole thing is built on top of predicting the next state of the entire module, learning happens through modelling an asynchronous states that reperesent portions of the experience it encounters,

US ones are. Shady ass casinos in the Bahamas like what SBF was running aren't though. Exchanges like Coinbase have been operating in the US under heavy US regulations for over a decade, and have never had anything close to a solvency issue. It's absolutely ridiculous that SBF was getting invited to basically write US policy despite FTX not even being a US based exchange.
> We have an impulse to punish evil, and severely punish very evil things, but it’s more of a primitive drive than anything productive. (Of course the exception is the extent to which punishment can deter crime.)

That "exception" is the productive social instinct of what you call "a primitive drive".

And it's not just deterrence to negate other people's existing criminal intentions. It also prevents the specific individual in question from reoffending, and it also prevents other people who worked with the criminal from effectively spreading their antisocial culture/habits to unrelated individuals who otherwise have no existing proclivities for crime. It's almost about killing the idea, even more than punishing the person.

Having a standard where you're going to say "This is not okay and we absolutely won't put up with it" is vital to keeping a healthy culture where you can walk down the streets safe at night, or keep your money in a bank knowing it won't just disappear. The penalty for crimes has to be at least several times whatever the criminal gained, in order to be a viable deterrent considering the odds of getting caught, plus at least proportional to the harm inflicted, to center your societal structures on empathising and identifying with the victim. There has to be a heavy artificial cost for criminals, because otherwise game theory of the self-interested says that we'll all end up being constantly victimized.

Rule of the law isn't "primitive". I also feel the desire to forgive and quarantine, but with finite empathy, it's backwards to feel for the perpetrators rather than the victims. Look at Russia for an example to see what happens when predatorily selfish behaviors are allowed to go unpunished, and inevitably end up normalized. [1]

Few investors want RTO. I am a shareholder (vested) in a large tech company that communicates about the WFH/RTO matter with investors less than they do with their employees.

I can only imagine that executives want to please REITs and RE hedges so they don't dump the stock, even they own relatively little, as many executives are constantly cashing out at a slow rate. It's not for the good of the business because the days of equity financing and attracting investment is far in the rear view mirror for most large tech, and because we know this harms companies in the long-term. It might just be personal greed.

By my rough estimate, Sundar Pichai sold an average of $1.8M of Alphabet stock every month since 2015. A 3% dip on the stock would have made him make perhaps $50k less pcm. Wallmine says he's now selling at a rate of $16-40M a month. 3% is $0.5-1.2M loss every month. At that scale, the downsides of RTO to these executives pale in comparison to their personal losses if they don't please REITs.

All the other employees with peanuts in vested equity probably see it differently. I know I do. I'll take a $1k hit to not make all my colleagues go through RTO when they've moved away during the pandemic, have them pull their kids out of school, move out of their dream house, abandon their parents who need care, etc.
Are you denying human caused climate change because you don't think there's enough data to support it? You believe the data supporting climate change theories only dates from 1979? Well, great news, I have lots of reading that will quickly get you up to date and help you understand that climate change isn't demonstrated only through satellite models!

In the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report introduction, you can see the various methodologies used to demonstrate the effects of human-caused climate change: https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/chapter/chapter-1/#1.3

For example, we've been taking thermometer and barometer observations at Earth's surface since the 1600s. By the 1800s this was widely distributed through naval weather logs. For atmospheric readings, we've been getting those since the 40's, not 70s, because that's when we invented weather balloons :) but we have even further back information, through the field of Paleoclimate, where we do things like measuring C02 concentration of bubbles in polar ice sheets, dating back as much as 800,000 years ago. We can also use tree rings (hundreds of years, or thousands if fossilized), "corals, stalactites and stalagmites, dust sediments, fossil pollen, peat, lake sediment, and marine sediment" to measure climate change over millenia, no need for satellites!

Want to play with all the data on your own? https://github.com/KKulma/climate-change-data Her's a curated list of all sorts of data you can play with. https://openclimatedata.net/ Here's some jupyter notebooks!

What data is missing that you think it's "not enough?"

"Other than that indefinable quality that distinguishes us from other things, how are we different from other things?"
They aren't a significant portion of the DoD R&D infra.

Most FFRDCs and UARCs are staffed by civilians employed concurrently with a regional University or Industry Vendor, and these labs in turn are PPPs often operated by a private sector firm like Lockheed or a university like UCB.

On top of that, the bulk of the budget goes to funding research done outside of FFRDCs and UARCs via programs like DARPA, grants from the DCTO S&T, SBIR/STTR, etc

This fusion of university research, private sector research, and some limited in-house research is what's called Civil-Military Fusion.

The issue is the private sector portion has increasingly been divorced from the private sector, as up and coming private sector opportunities or promising startups don't have an easy on-ramp into the existing defense procurement or research infrastructure, and grantwriting+compliance overheads plus limited grant funding dissuade most companies aside from your Charles River Analytics types from going thru the hurdles.
I agree with your points min general but want to share my experience and maybe some counterpoint.

Being a customer of the redis labs' hosted solution, we noticed several issues:

- RLs solution is way more cost effective than AWS's

- RLs solution is not even close to elasticache in its ability to scale

- when issues occur the organization internally moves incredibly slowly so simple issues can turn into prolonged outages

Moving to this licensing model will make it possible for them to better invest in these things. That said, given the quality of their offering and lack of investment in the actual redis platform, why would anyone continue to use redis after the license change? The cloud providers can fork off their own version and never look back!

I think they're shooting themselves in the foot here.
So because climate is hard to model, it's unfair to expect models to be reliable, so we shouldn't criticize environmental doomsayers spreading bullshit projections that guide government policies before getting inevitably retracted when they are proven wrong again and again? Am I reading that right?

You aren't missing anything. It's a good point.

We're beginning with what is central in C and then moving outward.
C, as designed by Ritchie, and for the first 40 years of its existence had no official support for multithreading, so this can hardly be called central.

If we add support for multithreading it'll be after finishing with C89 and C99.
The climate has been changing forever. Mesopotamia was once fertile and tropical, now it's Iraq. Humans survived the ice age. There is no such thing as a constant environment.

Then you aren’t paying close enough attention to the metrics. We’ve blown past the target of 2 degrees, in fact today it was 1.57 degrees. We’re rapidly approaching several tipping points after which parts of the biosphere simply won’t recover.

I'd love to be corrected here, but my understanding is that the enterprise support and pro features model can be a pretty good business.

Big deployments generally need really good support and help to overcome scaling challenges. Who better than the library maintainers to offer that, and your customers have deep pockets.

Then on top of that, you run a business which basically creates proprietary Pro and Enterprise versions of a product which has tooling to operate the project at scale or in high uptime environments.

Then you offer your own cloud versions of the product as well (which I think Redis has been doing).

But in none of these cases are you creating a disincentive for anybody to use/adopt your product. You're simply creating value around the pain points.
Well, except for the fact that "redis" the organization didn't create redis and isn't even the main developer of redis. The origin of Redis the company is literally as a hosting provider for the open source redis that they didn't create.
Who else is clicking "click to start" like me? It turns out you have to choose one of the buttons. I thought they are there to allow me to enable/disable the sound, but they also both act as start buttons.

Would be nice if APIs offered more granular permissions. Almost every one of these is global read/write so it’s impossible to distinguish between good and bad actors.
It doesn't have to be identical. For the method they're describing you just have to get search results -- so you can use regex in that. You can also just command-click anywhere you want to leave a new selection-point. (Or use various other find commands that search for things and add them to your selection pool.)

The benefit of it is that you're left with a cursor in each location, and you can then do absolutely anything that you'd normally do with a single cursor in every place at once. This includes things like copy/paste, which will maintain a separate buffer in each selection. This also includes things that're actually tough to do with normal find/replace -- I could select the bit after a search result and switch it to title-case, for instance.

You can do most things you'd use it for with find/replace. But sometimes it's easier to watch it happen as you type, rather than construct a fairly complex regex with groups and suchlike.

It's not a server-side component but something integral to the passkey itself. Everything is on the key and there's no third party - just the key, and the site you're authing to. So when you auth with a passkey, it includes some details around "this came from a Feitian model x or yubico model y or bitwarden or...". That's blank, IIRC, if it's Apple.

And then if a corporate type has said "well we only gave our employees Yubikey 3s", they can instruct their idp to only accept passkeys for Yubikey 3s.

This is a tradeoff - their employees can't register legitimate, useful personal passkeys like their phone, but an arbitrary (not dedicated nationstate) attacker is a bit less likely to somehow takeover the account and add a Feitian key. That mismatch is a nice signal to block the user.

But in general, outside of corporate identities, no one has any interest in caring what kind of passkey you use. GitHub doesn't, certainly, outside of resident key requirements, a different bundle of fish.

(and yes, Dan is definitely great at this stuff, read his blog on this stuff).
I’m no mathematician, so I only took basic school math, but I hated every moment of it. Mostly because overwhelmingly there was never any context or justification for learning any of it. Why does this exist? What actual real world problems does it solve? How did folks come up with and it, prove it works and start using it? Crickets. Just learn this formula, then that. The first time I heard the ancients calculated the distance to and size of the moon with trigonometry I was floored. Oh ok so that’s the kind of cool shit they came up with it for. Now I’m listening.

Many drivers choose a car based on aspirational reasons that are detached from reality.

e.g. buying an SUV for adventurous road trips, a truck so they can carry lots of large items.

Which is why range anxiety is still a big deal.
Also far less fertilized plants, and therefore far fewer seeds. Hilariously, this is addressed in Bee Movie, which I can't recommend enough if you want to watch something that defies explanation of its existence, with every aspect of itself.
Farming Practices just need to get better and smarter. Some of the big successful operations simply compensate by keeping bees in a climate controlled warehouse at 40 degrees or so. That allows them to have really good control of bee behavior.

If you have some data that shows that climate change doesn't have all of the negative outcomes that the predictions anticipate, you're welcome to share it.
