You could retreat into invective or you could point me to a better source than an article that came out before the show even aired.

My theory on this is: algo trading on short term, if it works you don’t tell anyone because by trading on the opportunity they decrease the available opportunity to you (efficient market, chaotic systems etc).

Long-term trading doesn’t work like this, in fact you want more people to identify the opportunity and buy to improve your position in the long term, but generally you should be investing on alternative signals not technical analysis.

I would hardly describe the deal as friendly. He already did 5 years in a prison that was worse than where he would have stayed in the US. Also, there was a bunch of legal uncertainty over the case given the 1st amendment concerns. The government would rather take a guaranteed conviction than potentially lose. Uncertainty is the same reason the government offers people a better plea deal after they get a mistrial or some evidentiary thing goes in their favor. Also, there are literally drug kingpins who sold thousands of tons of drugs and ordered executions with lower sentences than Manning. Her sentence was unfairly high to begin with, which is part of the reason it was commuted.

You seem to have the impression that leakers are getting sweetheart deals. In actuality you have people like Reality Winner who got five years for leaking information that was pretty much already public. Natalie Edwards getting six months for the FinCEN Files is probably a little low. I am incredibly skeptical that given the number of news organizations with access to the documents that they remained private and that no one was tipped off. But she was actually doing it in an effort to put pressure on Russia!
Lovely, more gaslighting.

I tried playing Death Stranding on my iPhone 15 Pro. It looked fantastic but those touchscreen controls were horrendous.
I wonder if a subset of Rust would be a good candidate. It would certainly involve hardcoding the templates for some `unsafe` incantations into the compiler in order to treat Rust as remotely equivalent to a C target, which is beyond me, but _if_ it could be done the opportunity to reuse all of the Rust ecosystem would be killer.
Heck, even generating only safe Rust with runtime overhead might be a fast enough of a runtime for an experiment with this.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HyperCard :

> It is among the first successful hypermedia systems predating the World Wide Web.

But HyperCard was not ported to OSX, now MacOS; which has Slides and TextEdit for HTML without MacPorts, or Brew,.

HTML is Hypertext because it has <a name= href=> edges and scripting IIUC.

Then there was Flash by Macromedia, which also created Dreamweaver for HTML editing before Adobe acquired Macromedia.

By now there are Open Web Standards like HTML5 and ECMAscript (ES (JS not JavaScript)), WebSockets, WebRTC, WebGL, WebGPU, WASM, and various UI-to-state bindings, as Flash called what e.g. React is used for today.

Instead of the DOM and JS addEventHandler, with React/preact you call setState(attr, val) to mutate the application state dict/object so that Components can register to be updated when keys in the state dict are changed with useState() https://react.dev/learn/adding-interactivity#responding-to-e...

The HyperTalk language has a fairly simple grammar compared to creating a static SPA (Single Page Application) with all of JS and e.g React and a router to support the browser back button and deeplink bookmarks with URI fragments that "don't break the web":

TodoMVC or HyperTalk? False dilemma.
Pretty sure they already do that, at least in some way, with OpenAI thinking about or already doing ad injecting via giving priority to certain types of services or products.[0]. All in all the company has so far been quite dishonest so I have no reason to think otherwise.

I always prefer to self-host my dependencies,

I don't think this applies, particularly. Diagramming wasn't so much "this is how a sentence should be set up" as "this is the function of this word in this sentence."
There are subtle parts of how English works that confuse a lot of people, that diagramming might help with. The most obvious to me was the Harry Potter scene where, in the movie, Professor Snape says "and even put a stopper in death" [0]. The book version was just "even stopper death".

These mean opposite things. One uses "stopper" as a noun, saying to prevent death. The other is using it as a verb, saying to bottle up death - create a potion to cause death.

This pattern is powerful since you can pick arbitrary tooling and easily make modifications with your own tooling. For instance substituting variables/placeholders or applying static analysis.
I think eventually they’ll just make a car (like Zooks is) without all the messy crud (steering wheel etc) and with fixed, waterproof seats and such. It will be designed for automatic cleaned by driving into a depot and being hosed down.

> looking at you, Inform 7!

Oh! Good to hear this from someone else.

I imagine that Inform 7 has been a net positive for accessibility over older "code"[1] Inform syntax (personally, I bounced right off Inform 6 as a kid), but there were times where it felt like I needed a great understanding of the underlying model that would have been more self-evident from the "code" syntax.

That said, that's my experience from many years ago. Might be better now.

[1] Inform 7 is code too in a sense, but I mean syntax that doesn't look like natural language.
I don't know about the rest but have you ever been to Beijing? that wasn't my experience at all
This means they should also diffuse out through the skin.
Another way to look at it is a long shot on a new higher level language to entice the folks currently reaching for Java, Python, or other runtime interpreters. An easy and safe language that shifts more work to compile time and offers high performance with ergonomic use will use less power, reduce the education requirements to writing fast code, and potentially change the world like another fast memory safe language governments are increasingly endorsing. Or if nothing else it may serve as a language for interpreters of those languages, or to make extensions to them more ergonomic. With enough scale the improvements can come very incrementally.

When you sell somebody code you have an ethical responsibility to have done your best (and maintained a reasonable level of professional competence) to ensure it is defect free. Lots of companies don’t take that very seriously, which is bad, and a great reason to switch away from them.

At least the government can bring the CEO before congress and waste his day.

With open source code the responsibility is taken by the user instead. For me, and probably a lot of people here, we all mostly just ignore that, but it’s fine, because we’re free to ignore our responsibility to ourselves. In the case of a government supplying open source code to their citizens, the responsibility defaults to the provider, that is, the government.

> there is no way that the singularity as promised will occur within our lifetimes.

There are a lot of problems that won’t fully materialize during our lifetime but are nonetheless worth worrying about and mitigating.
We can call it a slippery slope, if you like, but that generally suggests an imagined, often absurd end result. Not a demonstrated consequence of the exact facts causing a bad outcome.

I think it is easier, in hindsight, for you to say that Patton didn't suffer serious consequences. If I were in his shoes, being prohibited from teaching his class, disciplined for an absurd accusation and investigated, I would be pretty upset and wondering what the outcome would be.

If these were second graders learning a foreign language, maybe it is understandable that they might titter about a word in that language that is similar to one in English. I think it takes quite a bit of mental contortion to believe that students in a college foreign language class would think that a Mandarin word was insulting to black people because it sounds like an English word.

The reason this story is publicized is not because it's the valuable precedent you assert. It's that it is symptomatic of the ridicule deserved by the reasoning that people should be offended by words with similar sounds and different meanings.

Maybe it would be clearer if you read the whole thing:

No, LibreOffice (and Apache OpenOffice, but Apache OpenOffice is pretty much dead and nobody should use it) are descended from Sun's OpenOffice.org, which is descended from their acquisition of StarOffice. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LibreOffice

LibreOffice uses the OpenDocument standard. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument

Microsoft's "open" standard, "Office Open XML" was created in response: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office_Open_XML The standardization process was incredibly irregular (see Wikipedia and LWN from that time period.) I'm sure the naming was not intended to sow confusion at all.
I think codegen/compilation is a middle ground here. A higher level language like starlark can be compiled down to a set of instructions that provide the described guarantees.

This is how Pants (build system) works. You have declarative Starlark which supports basic programming semantics and this generates a state the engine reads and tries to produce.

I've been meaning to dive into jsonnet for a while but it'd be good to have a higher level representation that didn't rely on sophisticated templating and substitution engines like current k8s.

Compare k8s to Terraform where you have modules, composability, variables. These can be achieved in k8s but you need to layer more tooling on (kustomize, helm, etc). There could be a richer config system than "shove it in YAML"

Things like explicit ordering and dependencies are hard to represent in pure yaml since they're ",just text fields" without additional tools

it’s not that any specific conspiracy theories are wrong just that you had more free time to reflect on things and consider the nature of mankind
> I didn’t necessarily could speak it well

This is actually a good example of users of the language adapting it to their needs. "didn't could speak" is not technically correct, but I'm not condemning it. You hear this in some Southern speakers especially, e.g.

"We used to would go to that park"

"That car needs fixed"

"I might could use those verbs correctly.

The more complicated verb tenses in English are pretty damn hard for people, even native speakers. So they adapt.

For the record, the "correct" English would be:

"I couldn't necessarily speak it well" or

"I didn't necessarily learn to speak it well"
X and Y in your examples are events, not random variables.

I've observed that the quality of third-party SDKs for Microsoft office formats improved substantially. The .xls format was notoriously fickle to process or produce from outside of Excel. As of .xlsx, the open source community produced myriad SDKs in various languages, and the ones I have experience with worked quite well. The format becoming less arcane and better documented was important to enable this.

Operating system purpose on some website is vague and not some canonical truth. It doesn't even necessarily say what you think it does, and doesn't justify itself if it did anyway.

> Unsupervised in what sense?

Unsupervised in the sense that there's no driver there to clean the car when it gets dirty. At the same time, presumably part of the odor of an uber comes from the driver, so that helps. I wonder if waymos roll down the window (weather permitting) between riders, to air it out. Might be dangerous at a red light, since people could throw stuff in or even dive in through open windows.
Kind of a way of turning something obvious on its head and painting it as a negative. When you are interacting with people, there is pressure to conform to consensus reality, regardless of the merit of that reality. Anybody who goes against the grain, wether they are wrong, or correct and eventually vindicated, first has to face negative social pressure from their peers.
Keep working the tech job and saving money before agi arrives. After agi, there will only be two classes, those with capitals and those without. You won’t make much money selling labor as those jobs would be commoditized by agi controlled robots. Think government will be your savior? Well think again.
It has been a decade or so since I read The Singularity is Near. From what I remember, Kurzweil said that technologies will increase exponentially once they become linked to the exponential increase in computing power.

Now that Moore's Law has leveled off, I do wonder what will keep the exponential increase going. For example, LLMs are increasing exponentially in size each generation, but that also involves an exponential increase in cost, and will only be sustainable up to a certain point.
Teaching, specifically teaching educators as well. I went from thinking I was not good enough to thinking I was a god. Just go around debugging things from the red squiggly lines and using all kinds of crazy hotkeys that can duplicate lines and automatically indent code.

There have been a couple types of slide saxes made but for whatever reason they haven't really caught on..

This one has keys that are actuated by the slide:

(The last third of the video has a narrative in French describing the instrument, photobombed by a set of four serpents hanging on the wall behind the speaker. A serpent is a instrument that is sort of the opposite of a slide sax: it combines a brass-style mouthpiece with woodwind-like fingerholes).

This one looks mechanically simpler but it's not conical bore like a real saxophone:

Its probably somewhere in the middle - a feedback loop.
Since the assist doesn't require real time response (e.g., the failure mode is the car not moving, not you dying unlike a tesla) it seems like a non taxi version could simply set you up as the assist monitor.

If you fall asleep or don't respond it's fine, you're just stuck.

I don't think Google plans to do this for a variety of reasons, but I don't think there's fundamentally any reason they couldn't.

I wonder if they'd ever offer riders a discount for taking trash out that was left behind by other riders. They could even include a vacuum and give people a couple bucks off for cleaning it out during/after their ride.

Don't you have the empathy to see how your comment would look to people in the overwhelming majority of the world? Think about what's happening in Gaza and how people see that? Or for that matter consider our decades of absolute brutality all throughout the Mideast including backing terrorists when convenient, overthrowing governments all around the world (including democracies that voted the 'wrong' way) often to replace them with the brutal and unpopular autocracies, centuries of exploitation in Africa - which is still ongoing if you were not aware, and so on endlessly.

So if you think the proper response to "injustice" is action, then you largely just explained endless war and violence because one person's just and righteous nation is another's den of tyranny and villainy. This is why a mutually respectful multipolar, where countries stop screwing around in the matters of others', is likely the only way we can ever create anything even remotely like a stable and peaceful world order. The right of emigration ensures the worst possible scenarios are largely limited.
