People? Not that many. Companies? quite a few.

If you have an easy way to flash any phone and plenty of firmware available, it makes sense to turn flashing into a business. Buy used phones off people who don't need them any more, reflash them with a newer and debloated Android, and then sell them off for more than you got them for.

This would very quickly lead to abuses though. If PC OEMs are bad, imagine what a small mom-and-pop shop, subject to a lot less scrutiny and having much less respect for the law could do.
I totally agree. My therapist taught me that sometimes we need to be angry, or at least seem angry, when someone does something wrong, an injustice as you point out. I’m not sure why people have come to the conclusion that certain emotions must be entirely avoided

> How do you adjust your driving to people appearing in places they're explicitly forbidden to, like on a fenced off highway?

Basically I drive slower. Slow enough that I can be sure that given my visibility no "hiding" pedestrian can reach any point on my trajectory at the same time as me unless they fall from a bridge or get thrown by something else. If I see pedestrians close by, I slow down. If I see something that might conceal a pedestrian that's close enough my trajectory, I slow down. At least that's what I'm aiming for. I make mistakes just like anybody else.

My comment wasn't about you specifically. I'm just saying that some roads make it harder to drive safely than others. American ones especially.
Sure, if you have the mistaken belief that making modern artillery shells at scale is simple, the US looks bad compared to a country whose government has always prioritized having lots of supplies for its army because unlike the US, it is not separated by vast oceans from any army that could possibly pose a threat to it.

It's a good question, I'm not sure. I do think it's clearer what's going on, and the steps are more obvious. Like, there's a joke in the song about what to do with the carry, if you add it to subtrahend digit or remove it from the minuend digit ("if you're over 35 and went to public school...") which to me indicates that it's rather arbitrary and "learn algorithm by rote". Like, the "borrowing" thing just much better describes what is actually happening, rather than having to memorize a subtraction table and then have arbitrary rules about how to proceed with the carry.

But who knows, I wasn't taught the other system, maybe it's equally obvious. I do think it's indicative that the "borrowing" system is nowadays much more common (that's how I learned it in Sweden in the 90s), which probably indicates that it does have some pedagogic value. I don't think for a second either way is "more efficient" than the other: once you get the hang of the borrowing system, you do it very fast.

I worked for Samsung for ten years and I love the people I worked with.

If that were the case, then there would be absolutely no benefit from having a stop vs terminate. Unless you've written data to the EBS volume, but in these cases where the boot time is critical most of them are some sort of read-only volume anyways. The fact that an EC2 can be stopped or terminated should immediately suggest speed might be a difference in reaching the running state. In the EBS docs, it clearly states that if you keep an EBS volume around either attached to a stopped EC2 or detached and left in your pool of volumes, you will be charged for that volume.
Elixir v1.17.0-RC.0 released with type inference
This release introduces gradual set-theoretic types to infer types from patterns and guards and use them to type check programs, enabling the Elixir compiler to find faults and bugs in codebases without requiring changes to existing software. [...] At the moment, Elixir developers will interact with set-theoretic types only through warnings found by the type system.

It should be required from day one. This tying of specific user-environment software to hardware is a straightforward antitrust issue, and frankly should never have been allowed to fester as long as it has.

The industry should be made to move to security models that don't revolve around baking in manufacturer-privileged keys (verification or attestation). Internal groups developing any default user-environment software should have to stay at an arms length from the hardware team, and only be using published documentation.
This. Absolutely. A second paper like display would be perfect.

Reputation is notoriously difficult, but I have some ideas on how you could manage it in a decentralized-ish (I'll get to the "-ish" part later) manner that can't easily be gamed:

- Nodes discover each other via DHTs or DNS records

- Nodes peer with other nodes

- Node administrator selects a subset of "trusted" nodes. In practice, this creates centralization, but is important for bootstrapping...

- Nodes use the list of trusted nodes to calculate a reputation score. The reputation score is a float. The reputation score of a node starts at 0.0 and may be influenced by administrator-decided metrics such as spam detection, user interaction, or manual intervention to boost or deboost a score. The score is also weighted against the "opinion" other nodes have of that node, with a higher weight placed on trust the previously selected "trusted nodes"

- Nodes that fall below some threshold do not get events forwarded but do still get their reputation tracked and shared with other nodes

There's a bunch of details that need to be enforced by the network to ensure this works: nodes identity is at least partially tied to an IP address. All communications are signed using an alternate PKI web of mutual signature chains and trust. Reputation assertions are digitally signed and virtually unforgeable.

Nodes may have different classes for serving different purposes. For example, nodes whose role is exclusively to provide a reputation score to other nodes should be common and may chose to collect payment for verifying a node (yes, pay to play is a requirement for a healthy ecosystem). Other nodes may exist exclusively for spam filtration purposes and provide reputation scores based on heuristics.

Bake in a few heuristics into user interaction (blocks, reports, etc.) that in a reference implementation translate into dings in reputation scores should incentivize admins to police appropriately but should be weighed against echo chamber effects that may result.

I've thought about this rather extensively. Email is a great blueprint for this, but relies on protocols that make it very difficult to implement some of these features and so struggles to this day with spam management.
Almost everybody on XP was using a 32-bit version, which only uses two cores at the most.

Thank you for taking the time to write all this, it's very informative. It sounds messy, but then again I can't help but feel that every single point you mentioned is quite complex because we managed to reach a point in time where a device designed with repairability first, seems such a farcical concept.

We might have become really precise with manufacturing, and produced beautifully thin and solid devices. But the fact that Apple needs to ship a 79-pound/36kg repair kit just to change the battery of a phone, doesn't really demostrate how clueless people are about the repair process, on the contrary it demonstrates the absurd lengths Apple is willing to go just to mock open access to tools, parts and processes.

Regarding longer warranties, that would be an excellent step, but warranties won't solve the same problems, as they will never cover user caused damage which I'm guessing is the cause for most repairs.

What if we started with the obligation of the manufacturer to provide access to reasonably priced parts along with schematics, without altering their manufacturing process? Would that be an acceptable first step towards making repairs more accessible?

No, you're talking about something different.

We certainly have memory, and can forget people, like a random person we were once shown a picture of. And pictures are not 3D faces either.

But if you meet someone for half an hour and then run into them later that day, you recognize them just as easily as you do your mother. There's zero doubt that they are the person you met earlier (unless you have face blindness or something). You don't have to meet them for 10 more hours to be able to recognize them instantly.

Sure you might forget them a year later but that has nothing to do with your recognition capabilities, but with memory.

> Well, you can't take the ten's complement of the number being subtracted, because it's infinitely large. One obvious difference between subtracting 3 and adding ...99999999999999999999999999999997 is that it's possible to write "3".

The ten's compliment of 3 is 7.

> Including the new math approach; indexing your table entry under "12" and "3" is not a different approach from indexing the same entry under "2" and "3".

12 - 3 = 9 is quite different from 2 - 3 = 9 carry the one. The latter requires a separate explanation for what's actually happening.

> But they got better marks than the new math students, because they weren't graded on whether they understood.

People seem to do subtraction just fine with borrowing, and I've never heard anyone claim that the old method is superior outside of Lehrers song.

> As I just said, Lehrer knew that people couldn't understand it either way.

This is clearly false, though. Most people today understand borrowing just fine, while (at least according to Lehrer's song) people who studied the old approach had so little understanding of what was happening that they couldn't even grasp the concept of borrowing. If you look at what's actually being said, all of the stuff in the first verse that Lehrer is presenting as mindlessly complex for adults is completely intuitive to anyone with a decent grasp of modern elementary school math:

"You can't take three from two
Two is less than three
So you look at the four in the tens place
Now that's really four tens
So you make it three tens
Regroup, and you change a ten to ten ones
And you add 'em to the two and get twelve
And you take away three, that's nine
Is that clear?"

The sarcastic "is that clear?" is there to show how confusing this is. But it's actually quite clear for people with a modern education. The problem is 342 - 173. You don't do 2 - 3 ("You can't take three from two, Two is less than three"), so you borrow a ten from the 40, changing it to a 30 and the 2 to a 12 ("So you look at the four in the tens place, Now that's really four tens, So you make it three tens, Regroup, and you change a ten to ten ones, And you add 'em to the two and get twelve").
Bills can usually be auto-paid. For a while.

Pretty-routine technical stuff...maybe you really trust someone who has a similar one-man show, and could have a "cover each other's backs" agreement. Though that can get d*mn tricky pretty quick - say, when there's a tax return due, or your clients are asking what's going on.

Really good friends and family could try to cover for you, within their skills. But they may be too busy already with visiting you in the hospital & making medical decisions & maintaining your house & etc. etc. etc.

Especially for SaaS-type stuff - where your clients can't just hire some other lawn service, and your family can't just sell off the mowers - you need to have a real "worst case" plan, so that nobody's left SoL.
> Anger isn’t actually an “emotion.” It’s a reaction.

All emotions are reactions.

> It causes our body to generate a bunch of endocrine changes to “supercharge,” and also causes our thinking to simplify into a fairly binary “fight or flight” mode.

All emotions have biochemical bases /consequences and impact cognition. In fact, fight or flight response is specifically mediated by adrenaline, which is not specific to anger, any mental or physical stress can trigger it.

From the paper:

> For each of the 517 SO [Stack Overflow] questions, the first two authors manually used the SO question’s title, body, and tags to form one question prompt1 and fed that to the free version of ChatGPT, which is based on GPT-3.5. We chose the free version of ChatGPT because it captures the majority of the target population of this work. Since the target population of this research is not only industry developers but also programmers of all levels, including students and freelancers around the world, the free version of ChatGPT has significantly more users than the paid version, which costs a monthly rate of 20 US dollars.

Note that GPT-4o is now also freely available, although with usage caps. Allegedly the limit is one fifth the turns of paid Plus users, who are said to be limited to 80 turns every three hours. Which would mean 16 free GPT-4o turns per 3 hours. Though there is some indication the limits are currently somewhat lower in practice and overall in flux.

In any case, GPT-4o answers should be far more competent than those by GPT-3.5, so the study is already somewhat outdated.

> I think what you mean is - are there means to make that provable from a technology standpoint?

Yes that is what I meant. I do genuinely believe you when you say that the searches aren't correlated to the accounts, but the problem is that it's difficult to know for sure if that's actually true; how many cases in tech have we thought something was "private" and it turned out that they were vending our data out to the highest bidder?

> Well, the basic wisdom, as I have been told, is that anger is a reaction to fear ...

Oh, that's very different from what I learned, and have seen, which is that anger is a reaction to not having control over something (that you do actually want control of).

So, when something occurs that's different to how a person wishes it to be (for whatever reason) they (can) get angry.
To tl;dr for people:

- As we've known for years, cryptographically-relevant quantum computers(CRQC) likely could wreck digital security pretty massively

- For HTTPS, 2 out of its 3 uses of cryptography are vulnerable to CRQC

- The currently accepted algorithms that fix these vulnerabilities transmit 30+ times the data of current solutions, which for more unreliable network conditions(like mobile) can introduce latency by as much as 40%

- Because attackers could store data now and decrypt it later with a CRQC, some applications need to deploy a solution now, so Chromium has enabled Kyber(aka ML-KEM) for those willing to accept that cost

- However, other algorithms are being worked on to reduce that data size, but server operators for your applications at the moment can generally only use one certificate, which older clients like smart TVs, kiosks, etc are unlikely to support

- So they're advocating for "trust anchor negotiation" by letting clients and servers negotiate on what certificate to use, allowing for servers to allow multiple at the same time

Honestly really impressively written article. I've understood the risk that a cryptographically-relevant quantum computer would pose for years, but I didn't really know/understand what was being done about it, or the current state of things.
Nobody was being pedantic. I don't use the web that way. I never type into a search engine the domain of a site I want to go to, so that's just totally odd to me.

Getting 80% of the first line of the song isn't the strongest possible evidence that you know the words.

But regardless, how much do you think you'd enjoy listening to the words absent the music?

Tom Lehrer has plenty of clever wordplay going on, of various types in different songs. When You Are Old And Gray has a fun example of wording for the sake of wording.

But I don't think wording is a strength of The Elements.
You are still not getting it. If someone says "we installed 1GW of capacity" then what does that mean?

It means you've either got 1GW of dispatchable generation on hand, or some proportionally much smaller amount of non-dispatchable generation on hand.

The number doesn't mean anything without correct context which was the entire point.

But "dispatchable" is key. Choosing to run a thermal powerplant at lower output due to market conditions is different to literally being unable to generate energy.

So talking about "X increase in renewables" doesn't tell you a thing, which was the entire point I was making.

If you build 100GW of solar then in temperate Australian regions it's actually like having 25, in Germany it's like having 10, and in the California desert I guess you maybe get 40. What you don't get, is 100GW on demand. And overnight you get zero.

All of which has a pretty substantial effect on whether "installed capacity" can move the needle on total CO2 emissions because the effect on grid production is much less linear then traditional thermal power plants.
It's not happening at any pace. CO2 is going up like it always was. No dent. We need to destroy society, not develop more technology.
