I agree with your point, but I think it's not fair to blame cultural relativism. Relativism means not prescribing a single morality applicable in all contexts. That's something on which reasonable people will differ. If you do accept it though, you're not obliged to permit everything.

For example I think that there were relatively moral people who lived in e.g. the US and Saudi Arabia ~300 years ago and accepted slavery unquestioningly. It would have been better if they had questioned and rejected it, but I don't think they are evil for not doing so. In the modern US I think that only someone tremendously immoral would accept and participate in enslaving others.

This belief makes me a moral relativist (at least by some reasonable definitions). All the same I think I'm much closer aligned with your feelings on the morality of modern Middle Eastern society than GP.

All that to say, being a moral relativist allows you to have weird dissonant views, but it doesn't require it.

Interesting. I'm currently doing some work to enable React SSR in the Micronaut framework, which might be useful for some people working on the JVM. There's also https://elide.dev which is a polyglot server framework that also supports SSR.

I didn't fully understand what WASM is doing here though. Web components whether React or otherwise are written in Javascript or something that compiles to it, so you need a server side JS engine (Elide/my Micronaut work use GraalJS). Is WASM just being used here as an alternative to providing a .so/.dll file?

"Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain" by Betty Edwards is one of the most important books I've ever read, because it taught me why I couldn't (and still really can't) draw. Read that first, then you can take any course online or offline that you wish to practice. I did like drawabox but it teaches a specific method and style. It isn't the only way to get better.
I totally agree in broad strokes about Adam Something. He's an unserious urbanist meme YouTuber essentially.

However, battery electric buses are seriously more expensive and a bigger carbon sink than a trolley bus network. But governments don't like to build infrastructure in the west and some people don't like the look of overhead wires. This isn't economically or environmentally efficient but those preferences can cause those issues to be ignored. Until the high cost of battery replacements kick in after the initial honeymoon period...

> "Music derived from existing music" describes almost all music ever written. So not any kind of argument against AI?

I don't know why you are calling out this particular sentence fragment. That wasn't meant to differentiate AI-generated music from human created music.

> My conclusion? Get used to it.

What's the upside? I don't get it. I don't understand why you even replied to me. You didn't address the point I was making. The point was the examples I gave — photography, audio recordings, film — which are much closer to AI music than your examples of punch cards and looms — had clear upsides to humanity, despite also having some downsides. AI music and visual art seems to be almost entirely downside. Sorry to restate what I already wrote, but you didn't address it at all.

But then goes on to talk about 1840, which is more two centuries ago
Right, the source of the water is clean but the destinations are not. The Bay Area is dotted with a large number of super fund sites due to the historical chemical, semiconductor/circuit board industry. Even a larger number of sites that are not deemed superfund but are similar. All these electronic companies were more or less dumping their various solvents and de-greasers into the ground. Impacting both ground water and soil. Most of those chemicals penetrate both water pipes and in vapor form come up through the slab of the homes/offices built on top.

Often as these business shutdown they built offices and homes on top of the property, for the ones that happened in the 70s there was no remediation until much later. For the ones that happened in the 90s-00s there was a level of remediation but I am still not trustworthy of it 1) lasting and 2) the developers doing the best work.

So its not a "in short" story unless you are completely ignoring the large amounts of trichloroethylene contamination that is in still so much of the ground soil in the bay area. Sure if you live inside of SF proper you are probably fine in most of the residential areas as there was no manufacturing but areas like Bayview can be just as bad and you have the radioactive contamination on top of chemical. If you live anywhere in the south bay or east bay, you probably should at the very least get an idea of what was built near your office/home. Maybe test your water or just throw an RO on it. So many of these companies were dumping trichloroethylene and perchloroethylene in the south/east bay and we just built homes on top of them. They are indeed generally localized hot spots but when I realized how many were near me it opened my eyes. I remember years ago this was an issue at one of the google campus offices because it too had significant ground contamination.

https://www.epa.gov/superfund-redevelopment/superfund-sites-... - Even the homes built in later years have had problems with vapors contamination even though it was built with prevention in mind. You can see the other super fund sites there.

I cannot find the map now but there are even a larger number of DTSC cleanup projects from the bay area. Kind of surprising someone would ask where is the contamination when it literally is dotting the whole bay area.

That headline phrasing reads weird to me, obviously people from various allied disciplines might be expected to win the Turing Award, so it's not completely redundant but it's not so far from "Movie wins Best Picture Oscar" and "Sprinter wins Olympic 100m medal".
The implication of using "632 CE" appears to be a reference to the proliferation of Islam after the death of Muhammad (I didn't know this until I Googled)

So if that individuals distrust towards the Arabian peninsula begins in the exact year Islam began to spread, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that OP is an Islamaphobe (and it would include a number of North African countries as well)

TLDR: OP is using geography as a dog whistle.
Hmm what if a DVD contains an index.html which just redirects to the right place. I could build a single entry point too so I can control where the right place is if it ever changes. This could even allow you to “make DVDs” of movies that are streaming only without having to pirate and burn them.
I rented Dune (Part 1) on YouTube and couldn't play it in HD because I was using Google Chrome (not Chromium or any derivative) on Linux, and apparently the DRM didn't like that. I can play any other YouTube HD/4K videos just fine.
Which should never be quoted as a historical reference, since:

> No references to Moses appear in any Egyptian sources prior to the fourth century BC, long after he is believed to have lived. No contemporary Egyptian sources mention Moses, or the events of Exodus–Deuteronomy, nor has any archaeological evidence been discovered in Egypt or the Sinai wilderness to support the story in which he is the central figure.

It's a fictional religious story about how the people who themselves wrote the story are chosen by their diety, victims of the "other" heathens, and very cool.
>modern examples of societies who achieved moral progress

But we haven't achieved moral progress.

G7/G20 countries have essentially merely physically outsourced slavery out of sight to second world factories and third world hell holes.

Through the magic of fiat money and currency exchange rates, we have deluded ourselves for half a century that we are in fact not colonizers and oppressors anymore.

Just one example are the Coltane mining wars in Congo: 1998-2008 5.2 million killed or dead from hunger (and it'd probably be higher if people hadn't more or less stopped counting after 2006). You probably didn't even know it happened,and yet millions today work at slaves to continue producing minerals for our digital comfort.
No, what we’re finding is actually quite the opposite. High volumes of light weapons is not only enough, but preferable on the modern battlefield even fighting against heavy weapons.

If you're into this kind of geometry, and CNC, we could use some more eyeballs on Solvespace. I'd like better g-code generation.
I love this section of the article (edited for clarity):

"I'm not motivated by application, but I know that we can find uses for fundamental work. Think about Alan Turing. He wrote a mathematical paper in logic in an obscure journal about Entscheidungsproblem. It was not motivated by application."

This is similar to Feynman's plate story, which started off as a casual response to an observation he made in a university canteen, and which ended in a Nobel prize.

To extend my point, it is precisely this kind of curiosity-based enquiry that modern academia discourages.
Actually: can you share the license more easily than the whole book? Then you did not buy a license either. The “license argument” is silly and contradictory.

Found it. None of that claims that "the city Łódź in Poland is situated along a single linear 4-5km street". It is not. So much so that if you look at it on a map, you can't see which one of the many streets is the one which is supposed to be the one you are talking about. I really recommend looking at a map if you want to make claims about how a city is.

What the sentence you are quoting claims is that this is the street the city grow out of. Which is a different statement than saying that the one you said. The "the city Łódź in Poland is situated along a single linear 4-5km street" describe the appearance and layout of the city today, the quote you are quoting describe the history of the city and in which order it was built out.
Truthfully, I don't know. There's some selection bias involved but anecdotally there is a culture of mutual self preservation because of MT being a career and also the relentless schedules.

It's almost like there's an honour code that you aren't trying to kill each other and ruin each other's career.

I guess it's like very very hard sparring rather than the kind of bad blood fights you see in some western promotions. After all, you do get KOs in sports like TKD too.

Those countries can outlaw those conditions whenever they want. When they do, they’ll have achieved some additional moral progress. I’m pretty sure you’d be crying foul if the US decided to go and enforce its laws over there.
The specific point is that there's nothing on the directory site to indicate that uploading a key to the directory will cause people to start encrypting your emails. From the description it sounds like a directory of pgp keys, nothing more and nothing less.

The more general point is that this is why people don't use these systems. There's very little thought given to UX. It's barely usable for average developers, let alone laypeople. Instead there's gatekeeping and stubborn pointing at ideals.

I think that's just an artifact, as they can also produce heavy metal scream singing etc. It just mimics something that was in the training data.

My guess is that they train the vocals and the music separately, the training data is trivial to create from any tracks with tools like with https://vocalremover.org/.

Authoritarian regimes aren't as unitary as people think they are - in reality you have multiple power bases and factions to keep happy (and they have their own family offices).

Furthermore, we live in a globalized world. In 2024, almost every country is dependent on international investors bringing in liquidity. Graft is fine, so long as execution happens.

This means you have multiple different firms joining in these kinds of infra investments. Some are international investors (eg. Citigroup, HSBC, Jardins), some are regional investors (eg. SNB, SAB), some are family offices, and some are the government itself.

The international investors are used to maintain international credibility, the regional investors are used as fixers by the international investors, the family offices are those regionally prominent members who can make or break procurement, and the government investment funds that act as the lubricant to manage all these different factions.

Basically, these investments are used to not only show off regional power, but also pay off regionally prominent factions via Family Offices or minority ownership.

This happens from Saudi Arabia (eg. Neom) to Japan [0] to South Korea [1] to Poland [2]. This is very common in newly developed countries as well as developing countries (eg. CCDI's crackdown on land corruption in China, the Odenbrecht scandal in Brazil, the various Adani linked scandals in India).

> as in generate business for the company, sell off the company to external investors

There's no reason to. Once a connected company executes successfully on large regional projects, they can become international players. This is what happened to Reliance in the 2000s, Adani in the 2010s, Odenbrecht in Brazil in the 1990s-2000s, Polimeks in Turkiye in the 2000s, Wanda Group in China in the 2000s, etc.

In the Netherlands all big cities have tram networks. So we do build infrastructure all the time, including overhead wires.

We even have a city that built a trolley bus network. But it never caught on simply because it has too many drawbacks. It's worse than a BEV bus and worse than a tram but does come with the upfront investment bill.

BEV buses that replace diesel ones are working great.

Military planes that show up on ADS-B do so for either of the two reasons (or both):

a) to make civilian air traffic control life easier

b) as (strategic) signalling - this applies for example to NATO tankers and electronic intelligence platforms flying over the Eastern Flank.

Remember, you want your opponent to know how you can potentially hurt them if things go bad, that's the basis of deterrence. This is why for example certain aspects of nuclear weapon systems are completely out in the public.

This is just normal capitalist logic. This is how all corporations would do it if able. See also: 2008’s banking “crisis” among others.

It works correctly. What do you mean?
As hinted at, but not elaborated on by the first part that mentions temperature monitoring, those wires in free air expand and contract with temperature changes. The cables need to be able to support their own weight without collapsing or touching other conductive objects like other cables or trees.

Adding more conductive material helps with the resistive losses, but also makes the cable heavier. Using an advanced cable that has better tensile strength for the same or better conductivity accounts for those second order effects better than just adding more aluminum.

Would that leak anything the email provider and every forwarding server couldn't already have known? Not sure if clients support this kind of mix of plaintext and PGP: of course you could put the metadata in the headers, but clients won't show random new headers by default and Google isn't going to help you encrypt messages they would prefer to read.
That’s why I’m not fully jumping in yet, as I think even GPT 4 is borderline. I’m grateful for those investing their energy into building things like this (and no doubt many will be successful) but I’m happy to remain an interested observer until the next generation when I think the value proposition may be much more evident.
DRM is security theater at this point. It's easy to find any book in any format on the internet. Amazon perpetuates this myth to authors and publishers that without DRM their book will be everywhere for free (which it already is), but all it does it keep them locked to Amazon out of fear.

The problem for the vast majority of authors isn't theft, it's that no one ever discovers their book at all.

One thing I cannot find out was the origin of Scottish blasphemy laws.
