> Can you explain your thinking re a solution being both in-process/embedded and focusing on client/server use cases? On the surface, these seem contradictory to me.

What seems contradictory, not sure I understand?

In my consulting and contracting practice I have only ever had 3 projects that actually needed a big dedicated database. Everything else would have done just fine with an in-OS-process model like SQLite. But SQLite is too lax with data typing and I am not keen on 40% of the invoice for my customers to be "+300% extra data validation code because SQLite devs used and loved TCL". Sorry for the snark, but TCL influencing SQLite is a historical reality, if my memory hasn't betrayed me that is.

I'd love it if we had the same DB engine have an embedded and client-server variants. You start off with the embedded and if the project grows then you simply modify its config and don't have to change one line of code in your project (though obviously your platform team has to then provision it but that's a given).

Today this is sadly a fantasy and does not exist. I want it to exist.

And why PostgreSQL? Well, I like data strictness, and PG has a lot of desirable features like DDL transactions and enum types.

That’s exactly my experience with most of C.

In terms of computational photography... I think they're fine... a lot of things can be done in post-processing, which is fine, and there's been amazing advances in autofocus and stabilization.
More generally there’s graph neural networks, for instance, but not you’re including many dynamic networks that are not open-ended or evolvable. The idea is to identify common dynamics and add constraints on the types of networks that are included to find general principles within that class. Kisen the constraints, you make the class too broad and can’t identify common principles.

Idk, maybe it's not the exact book definition but I always thought about how well I'm paid in terms of the purchasing power, not the arbitrary value, and especially not by comparison with others (strictly speaking, because costs of living are kind of that, isn't it?).

The software jobs slowly go into the direction of not being worth the effort (I don't really believe that we will reach that point but that's the current direction).

Of course - because from my point of view factory jobs are currently paid terrible. They used to be paid better (worth the effort due to being able to buy more).

Not harder, per se, just different. Much of the psychomotor coordination used to land an airplane is learned by flying the actual plane--knowing the "feel" of the jet. In your friend's defense, it sounds like the control difference between the real plane and the simulation was too much for the skill to transfer immediately.

Another issue is that simulators do not duplicate the somatosensory and vestibular system perceptions a pilot feels when flying. These systems feed a great deal of information to a pilot's brain, not as much as the visual system, but enough that transitioning to an environment where there is no "seat-of-the-pants" feel takes a moment to get used to.

A lot of that comes down to the always-on radio on the phone... When I've done road trips, I've used my phone mostly as an mp3/podcast player and had it in airplane mode, and it lasted much longer than when it was just in normal operation. Standby for several days.

My M1 air is in standby for weeks at a time on a single charge. There's no reason you can't do similar with a phone. Maybe not months, but definitely for extended periods of time.

I used to do a lot of shooting with my Canon 5D. I had thousands of dollars in various lenses, plus some specialized flashes, etc. It took great pictures, but all that gear was bulky and heavy.

99% of the time I wasn't taking pictures with the intent of blowing them up to poster-size prints, or selling them to major publications. I was just taking pictures to document and share elements of day to day life.

(You probably see where this is going).

Smartphone cameras have kept up well enough with most consumer needs that it would be really hard to justify carrying a dedicated camera. Further, that camera would need to have all of the features of a smart phone camera (eg: filters, touchscreen, lightweight editing, etc. As you also pointed out) that it makes it unlikely to exist in a practical manner.

I will say I'm slightly surprised we haven't see an external "lens and sensor only" gadget that pairs with a phone. Use this gadget to capture a better raw image, and then use the phone to do everything else. Could be a USB/cable tether, or even some form of wireless (bluetooth is probably too slow though?).

tl;dr - I'm not carrying a dedicated camera around, no matter how much better the images might be.
It has not yet become unreasonable by definition. Certain powerful forces would like that to be the the case, and they have been successful at moving things in that direction so far, but they haven't succeeded yet.
He's just saying what Mozilla said about it. Perhaps there are people who didn't understand Mozilla's statements, so this is a useful thing.

I'm so tired of hearing this. Declining birthrates is NOT a crisis. It's a good thing populations are declining. We live in a world of finite resources. There's only so much to go around. A larger population simply means we're less prosperous as individuals.

It's only a crisis to economists who depend on an ever growing population to drive infinite growth.
These are good questions, I am on mobile at the moment so won't be able to make a response that does them justice for 2 days or so.

I'd think my other post provides some relevant content though?

In the meantime it may help...an important axiom in my model/theory is that the universe exists independent of us, but reality is downstream of us. I think Donald's theory is based on Idealism maybe, where he disagrees and thinks reality is downstream of us, and the universe is downstream of reality? But that raises some very tricky paradoxes, more so than the one main paradox/problem that all models have (I think? Maybe not, maybe I just lack adequate imagination! And it doesn't make him necessarily wrong, but it puts it into the same category as God(s) imho: anything is possible, including the "impossible". Which is fine, but please acknowledge it explicitly, Donald.)

I'm not terribly hung up on which model one subscribes to (or has been subscribed to) in general, but I am extremely hung up on logical inconsistencies and paradoxes within them, that are not explicitly acknowledged in a non-dismissive manner...this is fundamentally important to my model, as mine has an opinionated ~ethical component (Utopianism), and an extremely strong dislike for "imposters" in this regard.
Doesn't sound like any theory of black holes I've ever heard. Reference please...
> Its crazy to me that there isn't a modern version of this kind of camera

You can bluetooth-pair (most) modern 'pocket' cameras with your phone to get this functionality.

(And for the uninitiated; such cameras will have infinitely better picture quality than can be provided by lenses than fit in a phone. I always take such a camera where carrying a full-blown SLR would be a pain the in the arse).

What the market wants and what manufacturers provide isn't 100% aligned though. You make a good point about people wanting better cameras on their phones, but that doesn't totally eliminate the market for better portable cameras. Even if manufacturers would rather put their r&d money in areas that would be more profitable, that doesn't necessarily mean that there is no profit in other areas.
Partially off topic:

What happened to the "non-flat" CCD / CMOS sensors which were going to enable awesome smartphone cameras, by allowing lens assemblies with far fewer elements and virtually no chromatic aberration? Thanks to the fewer elements whey could be way thinner (or much wider in the same thickness, collecting way more light) and still fit in a smartphone body. This was supposed to especially benefit smartphones due to their fixed lenses (while for a variable zoom lens you would need different sensor curvature depending on the zoom level which is trickier....).

Oh frell. As a user who loves shell scripting, version control, and alternative options, i hate hate hate DB-based datastores. I won't have git auto-commits, showing me over time how I edit logseq. I check in work-notes, which are markdown files that can be viewed easily in GitHub right nkw. I also use file sync tools to keep tablet, phone, and laptop in sync: these can handle resync after online if I'm not working on the same files. Going to a database will blow all this sync up, will go from an open conventional malleable extropic system to something esoteric & cloaked, turn us away from the external & push us internal. This will be awful, I'm so striken to hear this.

DBs are just so awful, such a thing programmers love but which abridges the shareability of the system with users. We already have a great key value system, and it's one that has amazing universal tools around it: the file system. DBs have advantages for querying, so it's fine if you want to project your filesystem's contents into a database, but man, files are just so much more user-friendly, user-empowering. The 9p dream is real, everything is a (simple) file is still the untried win that can bridge the dev-user computing gulf. There was a recent submission, File As Metadata Format, that talked to this all, was so good to see, https://prma.dev/posts/files-as-metadata-format https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40890902

I love logseq but this is an app in trouble for sure. It's a huge sprawling Clojure project. That's enormously powerful, but trying to wrestle with that internal complexity is so hard. There's such a huge backlog of open issues. The community loves the product, but there are seemingly so few who have deep knowledge, who can answer questions or improve things or help.

Regarding the Android version, if you tap away from a line, tap back on it, tap away again, and tap on it again the "dot" shows up. It seems to be a visual bug only for me; I can use the "next line" toolbar option to get a new line as usual, navigate around as usual, but yeah it's way harder to navigate & browse since the dots all disappeared two or three months ago.
Not to be obnoxiously judgemental here (and this is partly meant to be advice to any younger reader and not just address you specifically), but if you are upper middle class and the expense of buying fancy things limits you from having children, why not not do that? I've got two kids, we might still have more, and we live in a median (for the US) house and drive a basic 2017 Subaru that we bought used. We're saving to buy that really nice house in an upper class area, and our existing mortgage is already fully covered by our assets (not paying it off because of the interest rate). If I lost my job, it means we'd stop making progress toward upgrading, but we are always secure in our current position. Pretty much the first thing we did while younger and still renting was to establish a year of runway, and we've only grown that over time.

We save like 2/3 of my income. Taxes are probably over half of our expenses. I realize it's annoying and preachy and privileged and all that, but if you're high income, the comfort and confidence you get from never overextending yourself is priceless, and you can still be quite comfortable.

Edit: Not sure why I posted this as a comment on someone else's post, but I'll leave it since it's here.

I haven't followed Logseq much since they announced the move to a database. I liked the idea when it was a regular open source project. They've taken a considerable amount of money from outside, they're moving from plain text files to a database, and they're planning to monetize by selling sync features.

We've been down this road, I don't know, maybe a few thousand times before. We know how this story ends. Heck, we could write the blog posts and the defensive comments about sustainability, running a business, and all that jazz right now.

(This comment is not a request for a lecture on how business models work. I understand how they work, and that's the point of my comment.)
I've seen kids using 2010 era cameras, but I doubt they'd be using ones with floppies. Those are 90's tech and probably have 1024x768 resolution at most, plus can you even buy USB floppy disk drives, or plug it into your phone? (E.g. I have a Micro-SD card reader that I can plug into my phone using USB-C, and I can plug the card into my camera using an Micro-SD-to-SD-adapter).

Then there are the geeks taking pictures using the B&W 320x200 Gameboy cameras, my feeling is even the Gen-Z would view these people as nerds...
>That it's somewhat less child rearing isn't exactly a big comfort in these new circumstances.

Absolutely agree. My my main goal was to highlight the proportion of rearing duties may not be causal, or at least a root cause. Im not sure that equal division of labor would even help with two working parents.

>The full grind of capitalism in a global economy has chewed up humanity & left us deeply powerless & exploited.

Im not sure that I lay this all on capitalism, but think that at a minimum, the two are tied. Parallel desires for risk mitigation and consumption feed directly into trained helplessness.
Housing and healthcare are prime examples of this.

I dont think that raising a family is intrinsically any riskier or harder, it is just harder to do in parallel with fulfilling other desires. People want family + X, and the expectations and cost for X grow ever higher.

It is obviously easier to have a family with a 500sqft trailer in the country than a 2000sqft house in the city.

What do you mean by "criticizes Marx on his own terms"? What terms are those? A problem I have is there are hundreds of pages of stuff he wrote so he's hard to pin down. Not a fan myself. He seems to do a lot of taking everyday life and splitting the people into classes who should fight each other which was then ceased upon but unpleasant people to cause 100m + deaths and much suffering. Also much of the basic content seems crap to me but it's hard to pin the arguments amongst the endless waffle.

To pick one quote though "Marx thought that the capitalistic system would inevitably destroy itself." Not it hasn't - it's all bollocks basically and the aftershocks through Russia and the like still end up blowing up children's hospitals etc to this day. I don't think anyone in the last thousand years has been responsible for more suffering.

>I will say I'm slightly surprised we haven't see an external "lens and sensor only" gadget that pairs with a phone.

This, camera tech on phones is great, but it's never better than a dedicated device. Plus, the models with best cameras aren't always the best phone experience. An external camera device that you could attach lenses and such to, but could dump the data on to your phone, and get GPS and such from your phone, would be a great middle ground.
