It’s a matter of degree. An uneasiness about writing code you’re not certain is correct, and being apprehensive of code possibly causing faulty behavior in certain cases, is a good thing.

Incidentally, AI not having that kind of feelings could be a drawback for it creating code.

that's great that you were able to do all of that, but that's not true for everyone. You can't deny that for a lot of people these networks are their day to day, and have become a necessity.

Just like someone can make an effort and live off-the-grid just fine, it doesn't mean it is possible for everyone to do it.

Is there anyway I can make use of Flyweight in Tauri based projects?
Will this work with state management libraries like Bloc, and libraries that depend on code generation like MobX?

Back when Java had just introduced Swing to supplement/complement AWT, I remember you had a set of components (that you could even style in different ways with themes), a fairly object-oriented approach, and with the open-source MiG layout manager (that still exists today) a powerful way of laying out forms with constraints to adapt to changing screen/window/font sizes. I feel like UI framework progress from Windows 3.1 to Swing+MiG was much greater than anything I've seen since.

We're just going to be speaking past each other, I think. GP clearly stated they lean heavily on Postgres technologies (by calling out specifics like pgvector). Stating that the applications that don't need those technologies, indeed don't need them, is tautological!

Discord is much, much more convenient than the historic alternatives like IRC or email. If you want a project to grow you have to meet prospective developers where they are; and in the 2020s that's X (Twitter), Mastodon, and Discord. Discord communities can be moderated to be safe and friendly... but Vaxry couldn't be arsed to do so because he's "based".

As to whether Vaxry was "really" promulgating hate... Refusing to acknowledge and respect a person's gender identity is transphobic.

Condoning this behavior (and victim-blaming the person who called it out) is transphobic.

When trans people and trans allies have positions of authority in an open-source community, public transphobes will get issued preemptive bans for the health of the community and the project. It is altogether fitting and proper that this be done.

Oh, and the fact that Vaxry slagged off Lyude publicly in his blog for good-faith enforcement of the code of conduct (as she has the authority and duty to do) just means that FreeDesktop would ban him again harder if they could.
You are complaining that these apps locked people in by making everybody using them.

That's hilarious because it is contradictory. The value you derive from these apps is that the people you care about are on them. They wouldn't be if not for "growth hacks".

Even running away can get more error-prone with fear.
>When you post on twitter, you can be rewarded with engagement and attention and even the possibility of growing your own brand and following. All at no monetary cost to you.

Yes we call that "being paid in exposure" and outside of Silicon Valley it's widely recognized as a scam.

Also bear in mind that content and engagement serves the purpose of driving ad revenue and creating a monetizable social graph, so it's less a "reward" and more "unpaid labor."
How can AlphaGo advance capabilities by using the output of a model of the same level? It's not as simple in this domain but there are ways.
I used to use it quite a lot actually. Nowadays maybe twice a year if I need to install a messy source dependency cleanly. For such rare usages symlink handling is quite a non-issue. When I used it so intensively, actually I mostly used xstow which can automatically resolve common conflicting symlinks on directories, unfortunately that's not maintained anymore.

(Sure, there's Nix and containers but stow is way faster)

> Mr Vanufakis believe that countries have the right to ask for money, spend it and never give it back, with no consequences.

This is actually the opposite of what happened. The Greek government, which was already virtually bankrupt in 2010, took a 110b EUR loan from the IMF on very harsh conditions, and Varoufakis was very vocal against it at that point already.

He was appointed Minister of Finance, he simply tried to renegotiate the terms of the deal, which the other involved parts refused.
Why is that surprising? And all extortion methods are predatory by their very nature.
It's surprising to see you flagged and downvoted. I would have thought, "concentration camps are bad" plus "our prisons do incredible harm to people" would be uncontroversial takes.
Semgrep – Find bugs and enforce code standards
Just for fun, because it's hard to appreciate how strong a 256bit ECDSA key is.

Base Numbers:

- 2*128 guesses on average

- public state of the art for ECDSA on an FPGA is 1315tps [0]

- retail price of said fpga $10,000 [1]

- total net income for xilinx from advanced FPGAs FY2022 (936M * 0.74 + 879M * 0.72) = 1325M [2]

Ballpark numbers, we'll assume that attacker can buy 10x every FPGA xilinx made in 2022 for a 50% discount and can run them non stop for zero cost.

We'll also assume they have a bunch of secret math geniuses and have a faster ECDSA implementation that can do 1,000,000,000 tps ( or 1,000,000x SOTA)

- (1325,000,000 / 5,000) * 10 = 2,650,000 FPGAs

- 2,650,000 * 100,000,000,000 = 2,650,000,000,000,000tps

- 2*128 / 2,650,000,000,000,000 = 1.28e+23s

- 1.28e+24 / 60 / 60 / 24 / 365 = 4,080,000,000,000,000 years

- ~4 quadrillion years

- or 4x the time until every planet has been ejected from every star system and the sun has cooled to 5K [3]

But why stop there, lets assume that the attacker can use the entire planets GDP to buy chips and has a 1,000,000,000,000,000x faster ECDSA implementation.

- World GDP (2022): 101.3 trillion

- (101,300,000,000,000 / 5000) = 20,260,000,000

- 100,000,000,000,000,000 * 20,260,000,000 = 2.66419e+28tps

- 2*128 / 2.66419e+28 = 12,772,451,173s

- 12,772,451,173 / 60 / 60 / 24 / 365 = 405 years

So even then, we wouldn't see a single BTC key broken within our lifetime.

(Unless you believe that 3 letter agencies have successfully built a quantum computer that practically implement shore's algorithm, in which case you should probably be more worried about the fact that they can break public key encryption globally)

Moore's Law actually refers to the density of transistors on a chip doubling approximately every two years, not CPU speed.
Yes, CPUs still get exponentially faster, but this affects multi core throughput, single thread performance improves way slower. For human perception and interactivity, this makes a huge difference. So it stands to reason if algorithms would have been parallelized earlier and better, but I doubt that the timeline would just be shifted a few years.
I'm sending my long frames out to the network and no OS I have has any problem with that. I've read somewhere that long frames are actually used by some routers to store metadata after the packet.

Author. Happy to answer any questions.
Hard to even believe something so incredibly "weird" actually exists and is so beautiful.
Everything needs tweaking, but it's always a tradeoff. Tweak in one direction to optimize variable A and seemingly unrelated variable B becomes unoptimized. If there was a perfect system we'd have found it by now; I'm actually very confident there is not one that exists, unfortunately.

Anyway, yeah it's been enjoyable for me too. Thanks for the good discussion :-D

> You should error on constructs you don't yet support. Not doing so makes it very difficult to ascertain how well Xr0 works.

You're right. We should. (We will be adding this as we are able.)

> You didn't do either though. You wrote long-form arguments about how awesome Xr0 is (or going to be) and how groundbreaking the idea of "interface formality" is. If instead you actually produced a working prototype (or even any technical argument why such a prototype is feasible) I'd be way less doubtful.

A 7-point blog post is hardly "long-form" :)

But more to the point, Rust has already achieved this "interface formality", as we state in the second paragraph of this "long-form" piece. That achievement on the part of Rust is indeed groundbreaking. Is it so crazy to claim that this can be replicated for C, without encumbering it with ownership considerations that have no relationship to interface formality?

Fair enough. We have a much more generous definition of "working prototype" than you do. Hopefully one day soon we'll have something that clears yours.

This might be true, but at least those outlets are mainly known for investigative pieces.

I would be much more disappointed with them if they would post such an article only consisting of "and then user xx said yy", "forum user aa commented bb", without any deeper investigation.

Imagine looking at tech and saying, "this is a problem with tech companies, not a systemic flaw in capitalism itself". The tech companies are bad, but only uniquely bad in that they are efficient at what they do.

Nightfall is definitely an interesting read and I love the spirit of the paper. But I think one of the major features of the Kalagash system is its periodicity. The total eclipses may only happen in very long cycles to cause the cataclysmic panic in the story and the resulting collapse of the societies. And I think it's one of the most difficult prequisite to fulfill. Unfortunately, the authors had not attemped to consider whether such long periodicity could be possible.
You claim the list is false and provide nothing of substance to back that up.

Assuming everyone simply chooses to use those services and could stop doing so in a whim is extremely naive.

If you want to participate in society today, many of those services are mandatory. Even if individuals can opt out, they can't force institutions or others to do the same, leaving them stranded.

Maybe you in particular don't care about being disconnected from all that, but that is not an argument that can be generalized. The problems caused by the network effect can't be solved by individual choices.
I'm not saying that in the future there won't be licensing methods that perhaps will serve to provide more direct access to the data, for example free = you can find them online, or do scraping... if you pay for them you have direct access to the dataset for training in real time , and you know that it is clean, without "watermarks" (even textual), etc..
the comparison with slave labor has nothing to do with it because here you are not violating a person's body to train AI, it is more like a duplication (but actually reinterpreted) of digital information that can be copied infinite times without damage, if I read it 3 times a PDF protected by copyright does not cause 3x damage compared to just once

I see it as more similar, for example, to how when the first search engines were born... if they had had to ask each site for permission to read, rework and provide the "external" search service, everything would have died immediately (at least in Europe and use )

another example is allowing emerging countries to maintain lighter copyright laws to facilitate their growth (yes, they violate them, yes perhaps a small percentage of Zambian inhabitants would perhaps buy the media by paying Western fees, but it is better to leave it alone and look at a greater good than managing copyright guarantees everywhere...) the Americans interpret this legislative concept better, the Europeans if they don't wake up will be left behind for a long time,

and I repeat, comparing the passing of a dataset containing copyrighted material into matrices for the generation of an AI is very different from slavery

"no lessons can be learned from Chinese bureaucracy about how to deal with immigrants." is quite a bold statement...

But you go ahead, state that the way other countries are doing things are irrelevant because of almighty statistics etc. (in absolute numbers, 0.07% of immigrants in China represents more people than the population of either France or Germany). You are not the first one stating this and it just feeds my narrative of people located in EU countries that are convinced that they have nothing to learn from anything that comes over the Atlantic, the Ural or the Mediterranean Sea, so nothing will ever improve nor be challenged.

I am not that sure it was the case before either. If you have 40 very similar products at Walmart where are they placed? Which one is placed on the top shelf (less visible) which one is placed at average height? How many packages of 1 type of product you have (you can have 10 of 1 product and 1 of another product - which one will be seen first). And so on.

Yes, you can do even more with an online market, but that in my opinion is "do similar things, only faster and more dynamic". Moving products from bottom shelf to middle shelf in all supermarkets = probably 1 week planning/executing. Moving all apps from first page to 3rd search page = probably 5 minutes.

The amount of RAM is the bottleneck for LLM inference on Apple Silicon. With 8GB of RAM, 3B models StableLM 3B and smaller work well. 7B models nominally work, but there won't be much room left for running anything else. 16GB Macs are somewhat of a sweet spot, you can run 10.7B and 13B models, which are quite good.

I often wonder, how much of the data currently in circulation will be lost at some point? HDD/SSD last a couple of years. Most of the data in the cloud will be copied over, but some will be lost. If you extrapolate to a 1000, 1 000 000 years, how much will remain? Will something survive the civilization collapse? I guess most people don't care, but some will ...

One way to make data mediums last longer is to make them lower density, and for that such super-low bitrate could be useful.

I noticed I had a lot fewer of these problems these last few weeks. I suspect the Copilot team has put a lot more effort into quality-of-life recently.

For instance, I'd often get a problem where I'd type "foo(", and VsCode would auto-close the parenthesis, so my cursor would be in "foo(|)", but Copilot wouldn't be aware of the auto-close, so it would suggest "bar)" as a completion, leading to "foo(bar))" if I accepted it. But I haven't had this problem in recent versions. Other similar papercuts I'd noticed have been fixed.

I haven't used Cody, though, so I don't know how they compare.
