Yes. As the article says, they needed "a use case that could tolerate the inevitable inadequacies of the 1.0 version of the device". A Newcomen engine is a turkey. It's about 0.5% efficient. It's the size of a house with the power of a riding lawnmower. And it took most of a century to advance to a better model.

There's another direction that might have created an industrial revolution. High-quality steel swords were known in Roman times, but they were not mass-produced items. The Roman army did produce swords in quantity, and they had a modest steel-making capability. But the Romans never made it to the Bessemer converter.

The Bessemer converter is a simple, crude device. The Romans could have built one.
But the metallurgy of making steel with it is hard.
Early versions had serious yield problems - much of the time, the steel produced was terrible.
It took over a thousand test runs by one of Bessemer's customers and some knowledge of analytical chemistry to figure out the additives that make the process work reliably.

The demand wasn't there yet. But if someone had developed gunpowder...
They're not really a "leader in generative AI". They're just rising along on OpenAI's success. Copilot like the one for M365 is very underwhelming. Most of its promises don't pan out.

They're hell-bent on becoming the biggest name in AI though. I hope they don't succeed. They're too big already in enterprise.

What if time is a a free variable that can freely move forward and backwards, perhaps doing a random walk?

The people inside that spacetime (us) couldn't ever tell time changed directions or was going backwards because at any given time "t" the state would consistent with all prior states before t. It would also be consistent with future states of t, but the person at time t can only test for consistency with states prior to the current t, but not future states. To the person it like time is only moving forward.

There are server workloads like maybe high concurrency web apps that might benefit.

There is psychological approach called internal family system, it explains personality as collection of entities that cooperate unaware of each other. Perhaps some drugs disturb this to such extend that it feels like there are multiple people in consciousness.

If those external entities were real, we wouldn't need to wait for science, some shaman would just go to the spirit realm and get told about bacteria.
Yes, they offshored it to Ireland.
You are ignoring the raw resource costs. The raw resource costs of humans is very low, it is really hard for early machines to compete with that, burning wheat in a machine instead of feeding more humans is really wasteful.

Its only when you put enforce minimum standards for all humans that humans starts to cost, and its only when you start to dig up fossil fuels that you start to have excess energy for your machines compared to feeding humans. Without those two the natural resource cost of machines is immense relative other things.

It _is_ trivial, right? The attack _is_ trivial. It's the solution that isn't. OP isn't claiming that. Seems reasonable to me.

I went back and reread https://doublepulsar.com/recall-stealing-everything-youve-ev... which is the first link in OP.

> how to do X in GNU/Linux

That's because GNU/Linux isn't an OS. The distributions are distinct OSes. They just have a lot in common.

> It adds complexity, especially for new users and even more for corporations. There's maintenance burden as different DEs fall out of favor, things become incompatible, and you have to migrate.

Corporations can easily mandate whatever distro and DE they please on their internal systems. Not an issue.

The maintenance burden is on the distros and they can choose which DEs they support. They don't have to offer them all. In fact some distros come with a single DE only.

I know the wishful thinking that Linux would be a single system that would make it big with consumers. But if that happens, people that love Linux now will absolutely hate it. It will be unrecognisable. All the power and control will be gone because consumers don't want that. They must want to pay someone and trust them.

Case in point: ChromeOS. It's exactly that: Linux for the masses. How many Linux fans actually use that because it's Linux?

??

WindowsNT shipped on x86, Alpha, and MIPS. Then got ported to X64, PowerPC and Itanium.

For the NT line, historically Microsoft was very supportive of other ISAs. The market wasn't.

(I worked on applications supporting a number of those. x86/x64 won the price/performance war).

>> That's not a source. That's a cherry picked, politically motivated source about 400 billionaires? The average person getting a job at Tesla and competing for your apartment isn't one of them?

> Want to try again? Not particularly, no. You asked for a source for my claim that the wealthy paid a lower rate in taxes, and I gave you one.

> But that's not what's happening.

I know. It's called a "thought experiment." It's designed to explore the implications of reasoning. This thought experiment illustrates that even if the wealthy pay a higher tax rate and/or higher overall taxes, the benefits to society of those taxes do not compensate for the drawbacks of there being rich people in that society.

> It is in the example I gave. You stated that instead of "losing an apartment" you'd prefer that person never got a job at Tesla.

Well, no I didn't state that, but even if I did, "never getting a job at Tesla" does not logically imply "left unemployed." There are other employers besides Tesla.

> You refused to answer (you literally stated you won't answer), so I asked why. That's not a loaded question.

No, I literally said, "No, I presented a different scenario. Sorry for not playing along." That's not a refusal. That's simply me choosing not to engage with your scenario at that time. Who knows! Maybe I'll engage with it later (not likely).

One thing that doesn't often get appreciated in such discussions is that there are a lot of drugs that seem promising at first, but fizzle out in larger trials. If drug companies had a known pathway to go from positive initial results to very expedited approval, even for limited cases, you can be absolutely sure that they would game the hell out of this system to sell "miracle drugs" to desperate dying patients who will pay anything for a chance.

While it's sad and horrible to know that a cure for your condition may already exist and be just out of reach, and I can imagine the despair at that, I'm not convinced the alternative is all that more appealing.

I would also note that it's certainly not, by any stretch, the worse injustice in the medical system. For every one patient with a terrible cancer that might have survived if allowed access to an experimental treatment, there are millions of people dying of easily treatable diseases for which we have had a treatment for the last hundred years, but who can't afford it.

The existence of a cure for your condition that you just can't access for whatever reason is a reality of our system. Caution in introducing new drugs is actually one of the more rational reasons, that one needs to try to come to terms with.

Programming language syntax is just for humans and not relevant. Writing correct programs is all about semantics.

This is the modern usage of hiragana and katakana.

Earlier, e.g. in the books written a few hundred years ago, hiragana was used like today, i.e. inlined with kanji, for writing verb and adjective terminations or various grammatical particles, but katakana was used as furigana, for showing the pronunciation of the more seldom used or ambiguous kanji, especially when the Chinese reading was used for those kanji.

The use of katakana for the writing of foreign words has developed from its use for writing the approximate pronunciation of Chinese words.

The writing reform enforced after WWII has introduced significant changes in the use of hiragana and in the correspondences between kanji and hiragana (and also many kanji have been substituted with simplified variants), so reading a pre-war book can be challenging for someone familiar only with modern Japanese.

During this entire GME scam stock saga, the company has lost over $1b, is still not a profitable company, and has no foreseeable future being a profitable company selling physical game copies in a digital world. Their stores are closing left and right. If you've never looked at their balance sheet and don't even know how to read a balance sheet, then you don't know what you're doing. The fundamentals are garbage and your only hope is to be in the pump rather than the dump. Good luck playing wheel of money.

This sounds more similar to what people have done with Racket and hint generation for MOOCs. Not sure which university it is again, but I saw a presentation about how they generate hints for students by mutating the syntax tree and analyzing how they had to modify it, to get to a target solution. It was presented at some RacketCon, maybe a decade ago already. Perhaps that knowledge how to do it can be combined with newer machine learning approaches?
