Religious studies fails to make kids more religious. Abstinence programs taught in schools fail to increase celibacy. Health programs fail to dent mcdonalds market share. Arithmetic fails to stop people taking on unnecessary and punitive debt.

The point being pushing things (good, bad or ugly) in schools often doesn't work out as hoped. Schooling is not a solved problem but it is a very crude tool used badly and often brutally by people of all kinds who wish to improve society by giving kids the tools to... You've heard it all before.

I find this continues to be true in my adulthood. With the blessing of remote work (or failing that, an office culture that doesn't mind), I'm very happy to take a midday walk and enjoy the outdoors. I'm very certain that if I had compatriots with me now like I did during school recess that we'd definitely find some sticks and swordfight with them, or climb rocks and trees, age be damned.
I've been having an absolute blast with it though! Don't think it's really geared to be daily drivable at all, just a fun environment to make stuff.
While nothing you said is technically wrong, my experience has been that languages that force themselves to dogfood are generally much more pleasant to use than those that are not, both as languages and as tooling. I strongly feel this is not a coincidence. Today's "ease of bootstrapping" is 3 years from now "incoherent library hell".
I agree it could be a viable business model, but the trick seems finding a market.

Since QUIC exists, most people (including virtually all client-side apps) will just use that. But QUIC is still TLS and HTTP, which is unnecessary for a lot of use cases and adds complexity. I think if you created developer-friendly tooling/libraries/servers/etc that were dead-stupid-simple, people would use that over TLS/HTTP, for anything other than a web browser. Android apps and tunneling applications might use it on the client side, and MQTT would be a great use case on the backend.

The one thing I think would be a stumbling block to the simplicity is the use of public keys. It's just super clunky compared to basic username/password or PSK auth. I don't have any suggestions here, I know Wireguard is pretty much wedded to public keys, but anything you can do to eliminate the many problems/limitations with public keys would help drive adoption.

I think you can lock up the control plane if you want for an implementation, but keep the interfaces loosely coupled and part of an open standard with the library having simple hooks for everything. That way those that have some money and just need a fix now, will pay for your thing, and those that can't will write their own implementation and grow the ecosystem which you can then market off of.

Like, Terraform could have been a closed-source tool, but the fact that anyone can write a provider means Hashi didn't have to write them all, and as more providers and modules were written, the tool cemented itself ever more as indispensable. (Which pisses me the hell off because Terraform sucks so bad, but it was a good business strategy heh)

Last thought: I would also quietly advertise the library as as "TCP evolved" or something similar, because that's how I see this. Assuming you deal with NAT, I would absolutely use a protocol like this over TCP by default for all my applications. QUIC was almost there but the TLS and HTTP is so unnecessary for 99% of applications.

Sort of. Some ops that a typical lisp would have in the std lib it has in hardware, though.
I still haven't found any interest in this wave of AIs for coding, mostly because writing code hasn't been a bottleneck for me since I learned vim and started using it as my only tool.

Knowing what to write and how to organize the code is the really difficult part of our job, and I am unable to do this correctly when reviewing stuff written by others (or by an AI).

I have been wondering if people are actually using those to save time writing boilerplate code, in which case it would make sense.

Vim has greatly increased my productivity by allowing me to save time for all repetitive tasks, and it's consistent and reliable (but also super hard to learn).

Maybe it's just a completely different approach in resolving the same problems?
My personal feeling is that utilising LLM assistance often isn't faster, but it can take less "stamina", tiring me less.
I think that the author's intent can be meaningful understood without the implication that they don't know about other languages.

I think a reasonable interpretation of the statement is "learn how to use verbs such that you can talk about doing something now, doing something in the future, having done something and continuing to do it, and having some something and since stopped doing it."

In every language humans are capable of expressing those distinct concepts. But boy, that was an awful lot wordier than the way the author put it.

OBS works great when recording locally. Sure it works for streamers, but it also outputs to standard video formats easily. You don't need a twitch channel or anything like that. You'll need to figure out where to host the video after the fact (dropbox works well enough, as it allows the viewer to stream without downloading).

> the young can change things

It depends on who you’re calling young and which country you’re talking about. Millennials in the US will be the largest eligible voting block for the next 30 years at least, and maybe longer if they don’t have kids at a greater rate. Gen Z [edit: typo] is the smallest generation as a percentage of the total in US history so they’ll be out voted by older voters for the rest of their lives. In most other western/developed countries even the millennials are hopelessly outnumbered by older voters.
Those all sound like surmountable problems to me. At least compared to the starting premise that we just don’t have enough energy

In my personal experience, it’s about 50/50 this and lack of home ownership. Whenever I talk to someone 60+, with kids, who is downsizing out of the old family home they inevitably mention having to sell (or more likely scrap or donate) most of their old furniture because their kids either don’t want it or don’t own a home to put it in (and are renting somewhere too small).

Many of their kids, people in my peer group, are in their 30s to early 40s now and still aren’t married and don’t have kids and don’t own a home.

I’ve got a family and a house and I still wouldn’t want any of the old, quality furniture my parents have. It’s just not anything I have a need for.

It’s not really a secret. That’s the entire purpose of our tax code, social security, Pell grants, and pretty much every government program out there.

This is called oligarchy. For the vast majority of people, an oligarchy is not a very nice place to live. Just look at Russia.

I should add there’s nothing about tax breaks for billionaires that will make them “benevolent”. Typically that kind of wishful thinking metastasizes as a trickle down economics myth, but time has shown that to be a myth.

It seems, either the leaders over there are not thinking through the longer term effects of their actions or it’s by design and working as intended.
I'm still unconvinced. Because which 'cannabis' are we talking about here?

Some organically grown sweet stuff, or sprayed with isecti-, fungi-, herbicides which usually contain organophosphates, which are neurotoxic, thus ARE a constituent of bug spray. Not to mention all the other shit it can be laced with to make it more heavy, tacky, and glittery. Does the blood work even account for those ? Even gas chromatography is not star-trekky tricorder-like.

Even if it could be, would it be used under budgetary constraints?

edit: Meanwhile I've read that whole f-ing thing, and it is like I imagined. A prime sample of the so called replication crisis.

The only useful information is: Meta-analysis shows a dose–response association with the highest odds of psychotic disorder in those with the heaviest cannabis use.

Oh really? Who would have thought?

Furthermore they DIDN'T test the samples provided by the 1130 participants, because that would only show a single point in time, instead relying on even less samples from the participating regions, fabricating statistics. And only testing for Delta9-THC.

I'm really excited to see where ML takes us in cetacean linguistic research. I don't know if it will successfully translate whale song, but we'll learn a whole lot by trying.

Whale song is about the closest thing we have to an alien language. It's very much worth studying with all the tools we have.

Have you ever seen the math for simulation theory? It’s stupid. It pretty much starts with, what has enough entropy to hold the simulation, and then figuring out what could have that many bits of entropy. Which gives you a result like, Sagittarius A*. Which means that the simulation is magically programmed by the material falling to the event horizon of a supermassive blackhole, and the data is red out of the “computer” through hawking radiation at a rate measured in bits per millennia.

Interesting that Scott mentions NIMBY as an issue early in the video, but doesn't list it in his final slide on the prescription to our societies ails.

All of these problems seem downstream of housing affordability. It appears more wealth can be accumulated from young people having expanded access to more housing to build equity with. With more wealth, the young people can start sorting the mess out themselves.

I'm hesitant to support many of his proposals because they seem much smaller in magnitude to NIMBY and many could have civil liberty concerns.

I think there are a lot of things holding back employment for that group, starting with the state of the economy. But multiple things.

There's definite evidence about the irreversibility like the release of trapped CO2 in ice that accumulated over tens of thousands of years.

Technically it's all reversible as the world will see another ice age at some point but on a human scale it's not going to be.

What's the M3 score?
Those numbers show that while the half of young people who are likely voters favor democrats, the other half of young people who don’t plan to vote must be split evenly between Biden and Trump. (For the overall average to be 45% Biden, the half that doesn’t plan to vote must be under 40% Biden to 37% Trump, with a large share probably supporting RFK Jr.)

That seems to support OP’s point. If you got that other half of young people to vote, they’d have very little effect on the election because they’re evenly split. Neither party has any reason to try and turn out those young voters.
America should as well. Mandatory military service means it’s not just the poor and those without other choices that serve.

Language is a system of grammar and syntax for converying meaning. Until you find evidence of those, calling something language is a baseless opinion.

The closest we currently have to evidence of non-human language use I know of, comes from attempts to teach language to apes, (which is an example of some scientists saying "$organism is doing language", which you claim never happened) The general criticism was that the great apes did fairly well learning semantics but show limited to no syntactic ability.

We do see semantic capabilities in other species and there's long been reason to suspect semantic content in whale songs. Deciphering the Alphabet of whale songs is a great step towards figuring out the semantic structure. When we do, I wouldn't be surprised if we find syntactic structures as well. Until then, calling whale song language is speculation.

Do you have specific examples of places where we have both syntax and semanti

When you review pull requests you're unable to get the mental picture. But it's different with copilot because it fits in your mental picture, you can compartmentalize what you're working on, and the copilot output can come in the form of small pieces that are easily understood and slot in the prepared places where you need it.

I agree 100% that reviewing human code is a lot of work but not with copilot IMO because of the immediacy of it all.
OpenAI certainly has a vested interest in making people think so.

To be honest, from my end, it seems like the biggest step was already taken with the OG ChatGPT using 3.5. I subscribed to 4 for a bit but it shares a lot of the same limitations as 3.5, it was not nearly as big as the leap from having no good chatbots at all to ChatGPT.

I'd love to believe that OpenAI has made a major breakthrough with 5, but it strikes me that they're gonna have to strike out beyond "GPT" territory to make a similarly sized dent to the one they made with ChatGPT. That is to say they're gonna have to move beyond transformer architecture.
