That makes sense to me. However, I live in an area with very little crime, so I might be biased towards an approach that centers on the legitimacy of the rule of law, without me needing to worry much about law and order being the result of that commitment. I wonder if you consider El Salvador to be an exception to your rule, or if you think Bukele is actually restoring effectual rule of law. Ecuador is another similar case.

Do you think Bukele is a "good leader"?
Microsoft's offerings are rarely the best, but they can be sold bundled together, have long support contracts, and a wealth of integrations tying it all together.

Teams is not winning due to technical competence. It is Good Enough and bundled with the other Office products a corporation is already going to license.
In enterprise deployments, Microsoft Office -- the end user killer app for Windows systems -- already reports on you to your boss, even if you use the binaries and not the cloud versions.

Your boss getting a copy of your Recall timeline is a thing that can't not happen. It's too valuable. It may be the strongest value prop of the feature.
but html does not ignore line breaks. when part of body text, a run of whitespace (including newline) becomes a single whitespace when rendered.

so splitting 27.00 on the . becomes 27 00, because the CRLF is significant to the client.

you would want to split at whitespace, not at any other character -- unless you had a 999+ string of non-whitespace of course.

perhaps the author didn't know or didn't realize or thought it insignificant to his point that in addition there was a quoted-printable encoding, in which case i believe the trailing/mandatory CRLF can be made non significant for client rendering. personally i still would have split on actual whitespace. (well, i wouldn't have written an smtp client in the first place.)
I personally dont think the important factor is the spread, but the visible spread. If some king you have never seen lives in splendor somewhere you have never been, people dont care much as long as their basic needs are met. Alternatively, if you see major inequality all day long, just to go home and be bombarded by even more extravagant displays of lives you can never have on facebook, people will naturally be outraged. For better or worse, that particular cat is out of the bag, and I dont think anyone can put back in.

For the most part, people have no measure for the material quality of their lives besides comparing it to others in they see. It doesnt matter if you have wealth and comforts beyond your grandparents wildest dreams, if it seems like you are worse off than 90% of the people on the street.

In the 1930s, Keynes imagined that humans would live lives of leisure as productivity doubled every 20 years. However, the human hunger for material comforts is bottomless, largely because it is not the absolute quantity, but relative amount that matters.

Where do you live that inheritance tax is so high? It looks like there aren't many[1]. I dont think that would help too much in general. Most of the most publicly outrageous fortunes in the US are first generation wealth. There is much more anger directed at the Gates, Bezos, and Musks of the world than their various elite children.

> I had a similar problem to what the sibling comment mentioned - scaling was causing me performance issues.

Your sibling didn't mention any performance issues at all. And yeah, nonsense like that sounds par for the course for nVidia hardware.

In re: per-monitor and also fractional scaling, check out what I played around with today: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40437217>

EDIT: Oh, and yeah, your multi-monitor setup sounds not even a little bit complex. Four or more monitors on Xorg? Easy as pie, when you've not made the mistake of using nVidia hardware.
Not necessarily, but the same principle applies. You can express discontent by voting with your feet and going somewhere else. And many millions, if not billions of people have done exactly this.

And yet, it's also extremely common to implicitly tolerate bad behavior by government, and part of that is that governments do a lot of things and probably all of them fuck up somewhere. If you tried to avoid local governments in the US with "NIMBY" tendencies, you'd rapidly go insane.
This article ironically sounds a lot like it was written with AI assistance.
Your counterexample is not even close to being accurate. Italy and Switzerland have much more in common than China and Japan. Italian is even one of the official languages of Switzerland. Switzerland and Italy are both essentially federations of distinct provinces. Both are recognizably Western European. China and Japan are worlds apart, as are China and India.

So far I've made a demo that maybe could have been 8k, but it was 32k (fits in 64k category but didn't contain enough content to use more than half).

I know I can't make anything that competes with .the .product or Chaos Theory (at least not yet), but it just feels like a good limit. 64k is plenty of room for code as long as you don't write a huge amount. You can write all sorts of procedural generation; you can use OpenGL and C++; you can compress it generically with xz (at least on Linux) without worrying about ultimate size efficiency. But it's still small enough that you can't include raw texture or sound data - you're forced to generate them with code. It's still code-based art, not "download a bunch of assets from the internet"-based art that might as well be a video file. A lot of >64k demos spend a lot of the size on content files, which doesn't feel like what a demo should be.

To write a 4k you have to actually make it small, but to write a 64k you just have to not make it big.
I know e-ink has a nice look to it, but for a dashboard connected to a raspberry pi (that needs power anyways) is there any other reason not to use a cheaper LCD monitor instead?
Sounds like the electrical faults in some older cars. Poor grounding or corroded wires lead to the current flowing in an unexpected different path, causing all kinds of bizarre effects.
> Like no one, even the anti-AI writers like OP even seem to want to interrogate this point.

Sure you can. I made a 4k demo during a demo party over a weekend. I think people in this thread might be conflating demos with great demos. The quality bar is entirely in your head. Go and watch any live or recorded party and the good demos are only a small percentage. Most are quite average.

It's amazing how industrially stripping privacy from people is "valuable"
> "Our leadership team wasn't aware of the termination when it occurred. Once they found out and looked at the circumstances, they quickly reversed the decision."

So yes, they got fired, but it was a mistake. Certainly drawing attention to yourself may attract more mistakes than blending in, but it works out in the end. (The difference, probably, is that FAANG employees have a little more breathing room than Home Depot employees after not getting a week's worth of pay.)

Come to think of it, a friend of mine got mistakenly fired recently. They totaled her vacation hours wrong, saw that it was over some limit, and just fired her on the spot. I told her to call HR and appeal and they admitted the mistake and rehired her. She then got a higher paying job at a competitor since she was free for interviews for a couple days. So... it happens all the time.

If someone is being kidnapped and you can help safely, take the chance!
>Everyone makes mistakes — Lord knows I did plenty of stupid, immoral things when I was 17 — and there is always the opportunity for growth and redemption.

when did the definition of 'mistake' change to encompass actions done on purpose? a mistake is when your data is invalid because you did the math wrong, not when all your data is simultaneously false and plagiarized.

i don't mean to disagree with the notion that his entire life shouldn't be ruined over one incident at a science fair when he's a teenager, but let's not make it sound like this is a careless blunder that could happen to anybody.

EC2 bare metal instances take a long time to boot. The machine was probably running for 8 minutes before DHCP started up (and then it got a new response every 30 minutes after that).
IOS AI is also local, but that was exploited in Operation Triangulation to determine which photos to send back to the exploiter. My point is that even if the AI is local, if someone else can get access to the system as your boss and possibly MS or others can due to Windows and MS services already very network connected design, local AI can help them out.

You may have missed them saying "when accounting for inflation". In the US at the moment that's around 3%. Thus your local credit union's savings account, a nice and stable investment, is effectively giving you around 3% appreciation in real-money each year right now. (I have no idea whether their broader point about the rate over-time is correct, admittedly.)
FYI if you sign up as a tech employee, it lets you view requests (and seemingly respond to them? I didn't try.) without verifying your account. This includes whatever personal details the user put into the request.
The fix was to teach the ENA driver that "set the MTU to the value it already has" should be a no-op. With that change, the interface didn't bounce.
AIs are going to be used in so many ways to profile employees. Productivity, trustworthiness, viability of hiring, ease of termination, and all the things that a state level entity will (only vaguely theoretically) be restricted from (again, but not really practically), corporations will have writ large to implement.

Employees are going to have to start being very reticent to communicate in electronic form, likely will need to counter deploy AIs to generate communication and "work" that maximizes their appearance of productivity.

All of this with a magic handwave to absolve away any AI racial profiling or other HR exposures the business may have. "The great AI god said so" will be cover for any and all malfeasance.

AI is a deep war on labor by management. Not just in automation, which is what everyone is concerned with currently. That at least has positive efficiency/economics associated with it. The true war on labor will be a totalitarian one, and with it, everything necessary to do it at the state level at the drop of a hat, or a Gulf of Tonkin.
Agreed. People should have a strong right to repair that gives them liberty over hardware and software in their property especially in their body. Anti-cirumvention ought be illegal by default. The law should protect people from being prayed up on by controlling interests. Would that.

Colonel Karl E. Nell Talk at SALT iConnections NY – May 21st 2024 [video]
I already kind of replied to this rebuttal in advance in my first comment that you replied to. But I’ll refute it again a second way. Textile machinery impacted a very specific sector of work. We’re talking here about an advancement in technology threatening to substitute the creativity of humans one day. With textile machinery, other technological advancements eventually created new jobs which helped to displace the jobs that were lost. Will we manage to displace all of the creative roles we may lose to artificial intelligence at the same rate that the human workers are becoming obsolete? Time will tell. You seem very confident we will, and I wish I shared that confidence. But I’ll grant that I consider it’s possible we succeed in this. I find it wild that other people don’t consider it’s possible we fail though. All I’m saying is that we need to be mindful of it, mindful enough to notice it if it happens, as I’d argue is happening with ScarJo here, and the greater voice acting industry. Because in my opinion the overconfidence displayed to the contrary in this thread is exactly how I expect most of humanity will be blindsided by it happening instead.
We generally consider anyone under 18 now to basically not have capacity to make decisions.

Therefore anything they do that is bad is a mistake.
i agree and went through the same struggles before totally giving up, i discovered racket along way tho so it was a net win
I’d recommend learning a lot more. For example, Phillip was actually an innovator in siege equipment and was the first person in Greece to really take towns by besieging them. You can count on two hands all the times in Greek history before Phillip where a city fell without the help of people inside the city betraying it. After, this changed a lot. Phillip probably wouldn’t have taken Tyre - but you forget that the only reason Alexander decided to take Tyre was because Tyre had surrendered but wouldn’t allow Alexander to come into the city for a religious festival honoring Heracles. I don’t think Phillip would have gone the same route.
There are already plenty of programs out there that employers can install on employee machines to track activity and log periodic screenshots. Employers can also read all employee emails, Teams messages, etc.

So I don’t see why Recall is being cast as some disastrous new spyware that is going to ruin computer privacy. If you’re using a company device, you already might have effectively no privacy.
Same for me. There's still plenty of unused gemstones as programming languages so perhaps the authors may still decide to change their name.
This is a pretty reasonable approximation. The REPL is also the library-fetcher, program loader, compiler, debugger, disassembler, and profiler.
The last 3 seem like usability upgrades. Substantial, I dunno.

Closing issues automatically. What a demented idea.
In reading this, I am reminded of a YouTube video by CGP Grey about how anger is more viral than any other emotional reaction online, including love. But then I think, isn't this one of those times where at least some level of annoyance is justified?

Except, there's nothing I can do about it. Does making more people aware, that can't do anything about it, improve the situation? Or is awareness pointless because of how transient it is?

And, what if the next great filter isn't great, but a series of smaller exponential filters pulled into a tight timeframe by the advancement of technology?

Thank you, I had no wish to be "that pedant" it's more that "Nuclear Event" is a phrase that generally has a particular small scale meaning to some .. counting flashes of light in a crystal as indirect evidence of nuclear events was stock in trade for a few decades here :)

I'm not all in for nuclear power, I understand the risk of bombs, I also like to point out we live surrounded within a literal sea of radioactivity that many are simply unaware of.

Write a Linux demo. You're allowed to use all the tools that come with the distribution (check the rules for the competition you want to enter, to see which distribution). I remember one with a Python shebang that launched SimpleHTTPServer to deliver a brotli-compressed payload to a browser.
The solution is to require tech companies to do something?

I don't know what rock they've been living under, but generally speaking putting requirements on companies appears to just mean that they agree and then don't do it.

Unless there is confidence that reneging on requirements would come with consequences this seems like a dead idea.
So you really buy this bluff about using another similar sounding voice actor?
But even then, there's degrees of knowledge and familiarity within that. For example, in Python, is using the `else` block of a for-loop clever? It's a part of the language that I'm familiar with - in principle it's just domain knowledge. But I've worked with plenty of Python devs who've never seen or used that construct before. For them, it's often black magic, and a classic example of "clever" code.

The point is that everyone judges cleverness based on what they know and are familiar with. If I need to think too hard to understand it, then it's clever code. But everyone has different levels of familiarity and experience, which means that cleverness is always an individual metric.
Maybe they reached out to the company you previously worked for, and the company changed the review?
It's for university admissions. It's not that surprising. There's a lot of fraud in admissions. I've met students who have given TED talks on subjects they have no idea about, written science books with fake reviews on Amazon, etc. all for admissions.
I think this makes sense for a certain market segment. In the commercial arena, cost of AutoCAD (and similar) is negligible compared to the revenue it generates.
CRM is a bit of a weird pivot for this, kind of lands you in the same space as Productive.io, which at face value is a really weird combination of features .. but actually is in a kind of ideal spot in the current market for small agencies and consultants.

IMO would have made sense to build out CRM before task tracking though.
I've seen junior devs write code carefully, putting time and effort into it.
The code was ornate and almost too over-commented.

mid-level devs become more pragmatic, but can skimp on both elegance and simplicity vs complication.

What's interesting is that decent senior dev code sometimes almost looks careless, but really works well in the end. For example, immediately exiting with an error instead of complex error recovery. (the latter would just move the problem around and make finding and fixing the root cause more troublesome)

Another thing would be duplicating code instead of doing some complex re-use with complicated conditionals.
Not really. The runtime, plus your code is a virtual machine. It’s similar to docker container in that regard. The REPL is your shell. And you can poke around everything. Another language that has that is Smalltalk/pharo. In comparison, the Python REPL feel like the os part was burned on ROM.
PRC doesn't need to conquer Japan, it can cripple it same way US did Cuba for going against regional hegemon interest. Remember Operation Starvation in WW2 that crippled JP as a viable country was US bombers based from Chinese mainland. Today is PRC has magnitude more theatre strike fire power to turn Japan into Cuba/Yemen/Gaza than US vs JP in WW2. Ask why aren't US and Cuba allies, because US would rather have Cuba as an example. Why are US and Canada allies, because US kicked British Empire hegemony out of North America for trying to wield British Canada to contain US, so much so that US tried to annex Canada twice. It wasn't until Canada, a fundmentally anti-America project fully made herself subservient to US foreign policy that "good" relations and even alliance is possible. Those are the increasingly likely options options for US partners around PRC, be PRC's Cuba, or PRC's Canada.

>Japan and the US is in the best interest of China

Why not flip that, why isn't JP and US being on good terms with PRC, with closing military gap, in their best interest? They're the ones contemplating meddling in an ongoing Chinese civil war, one that they've kept frozen for last 70 years. They clearly don't have PRC interests in mind. It's a little absurd to think it's on PRC to make nice on their terms that's premised on violating on PRC sovereignty.

The economic reality is JP and US are not "important" trading partners in the sense that PRC isn't trade dependant anymore, PRC exports to entire western bloc is ~10% of GDP. US/JP also relatively low export GDP. The reason WHY war is likely between these powers is because they are some of the least trade dependent large powers, for reference SKR export GDP is 40%, TW is like 60%. PRC/US/JP mutual trade is A LOT in absolute terms due to sheer size of economies, but is still single digit percentage of GDP with ongoing decoupling in strategic sectors. It's not worth concessions on important sovereignty issues.
It probably does. For every solid guy from Indian background who was living in the USA that I worked with, there were always at least 5 horror stories involving e.g. some back office tasks that involved one of 3000+ people working in India (at a previous company of > 30k total employees). It's not fair to the guys in the USA for sure.
