That's right, fund managers expect their clients to take 100% of the downside risk and tax their clients 20% on the up side.

Where I disagree with you is that fund managers regularly take risk. They never take risk themselves, rather they supply all of the risk to their clients.
GUIs are more accessible so if we're playing this game, sure GUIs are "antisocial" in the sense that interactions can not be shared but on the other hand, GUIs are democratic since even the technically unwashed are afforded utility.

I think this might be WHY remote meetings work so well when they work.

They aren't meetings like a board room meeting. They are like sitting in a room with colleagues and occasionally communicating.

If everyone has to pay attention, the meeting had better be worth n x salary x hours.

I think there's a reasonable case that identity is a 'natural monopoly'.

If we end up with multiple pluggable third parties, what happens when they disagree? There's inevitably going to be data sync issues, and the risk of having an "extra" ID provider lying around that contains bad data, or is simply compromised at the authentication level, is enormous.

So we really want to pick one standard. Given that, a federally backed service has the least hostile incentive structure:

* It would be subject to very strict rules about universal service. I suspect there are going to be private players, and even some more reactionary states, who might try to sabotage industries by denying them identity data. (We see this in payments already, where a lot of firms really don't want to go near porn and guns)

* It doesn't have any reason to look for auxillary revenue. Having it store more data than necessary, or sell it to third parties, becomes politically radioactive rather than good business.

Nobody quite knew how this DNS thing was supposed to be arranged, but like any good Yellow Pages it should be arranged geographically. So I filled out a (paper) form and (paper) mailed it to the registrar, and got us a (free) (for life) domain--ci.<9letrcity>.<st>.us. Just checked, they're still using it.

We get the new pixels leaked every year for a decade. We get all sorts of leaks from Google very regularly in the news.

If you work for a tech company and you have juicy new stories you can quite literally call a journalist and get something in the news that week.
1. Keep it closed source, offer a paid vs free model with more options that your power users can subscribe to if they really find what you offer valuable. This is also the best / fastest signal you can get as to if what you have made is going to be able to achieve your goal of becoming a startup and making money or not.

Offering what you have to this tech company is probably the quickest way to get whatever it is that you're doing copied. Companies pretend to be interested in things they have no interest in buying or just want to get a head start on by having you show them in great detail how everything works all while telling you they are seriously interested.

The tech company will only seriously consider buying what you have to gain the userbase you have built with your product, not the technology itself in 99% of cases.

2. There is no way to stop this, especially for browser extensions. Making it more difficult to copy the source code will slow people down, but this is something you will have to deal with especially if you gain any traction and prove that your product is something people are willing to pay for.

You have an enormous advantage over these people if you are the first mover in this space however. Focus the majority of your time on creating a truly great experience for your users that will build loyalty towards your product instead of trying to play a never ending game of cat and mouse with people copying your idea.

> Whether "just curve fitting" is enough to produce something "intelligent" is, IMO, currently unanswered

Continual "curve fitting" to the real world can create intelligence. What is missing is not something inside the model. It's missing a mechanism to explore, search and expand its experience.

Our current crop of LLMs ride on human experience, they have not largely participated in creating their own experiences. That's why people call it imitation learning or parroting. But once models become more agentic they can start creating useful experiences on their own. AlphaZero did it.
Index funds are not some clever hack, they are just tracking the combined productivity of the publicly traded companies that make them up. Whole market, or the top 500 as a representative slice, whatever. When you buy the whole US market for example you are saying, "I strongly believe that the overwhelming majority of companies in the US want to make shitloads of money and pass it down to themselves and their shareholders."

Index funds will never bring down the market as long as individuals and companies are allowed to trade individual stocks at prices of their choosing. There will _always_ be someone who thinks a particular stock is overvalued or undervalued. Those people set the prices.

On what basis do we believe GUIs are more accessible? Merely because that’s the default that’s been demonstrated to us? Thinking broadly about accessibility (so including those with sight issues and mechanical impediments like, for example, Hawking had) I’m not sure we’ve got any solid reason to believe a GUI is inherently more accessible.

I’m also not sure that a less social but more democratic system beats a less democratic but more social one, given that we can train people to script CLIs, giving them the socially sourced empowering the piece is speaking to, but we can’t train people to automate and scale up their GUI work in the same manner.

Google reportedly in advanced talks to acquire cyber startup Wiz for $23B
> Since google did some part of the actual mapping, they certainly deserve credit, but of course the whole thing could not exist if GPS wasn't essentially available as a public utility. Maybe if they want to be stingy with the map data forever, they should pay license fees for the GPS technology, since that's a piece of infrastructure they outsource to the public? Or for our individual data, since it's required to build their models?

The problem with this is that it doesn’t really make sense in the context of the world we live in.

Google built the maps and the servers to host them. Google is entitled to monetize their property (in today’s world). Sure GPS is free to them, but that was a gift to society decades ago and it has spawned countless life-improving enterprises.

They already do pay for access to our data - by giving us maps which are not free to them to create and maintain. We all assume that these companies owe us money for the data but if you didn’t want to give Google data you should be paying a fee to access their maps. Companies used to charge - a lot- for maps and that’s why Google maps was amazing. Just look at how much they and others charge for map APIs.

If you buy a painting, yes, you own the canvas. You can put it wherever you like, rent it out to others, destroy it, dismantle it and cut up the pieces to make your own collage artwork, whatever you like.

The copyright in the work belongs to the artist though. Your physical ownership of the painting doesn’t stop the artist making another work just like it or licensing the right to do so to someone else.

Museums and galleries sometimes claim copyright on images of works they possess, but that’s generally claiming a copyright over that particular photograph of the work, not the work itself. In order to do things like sell prints they will have to license the work from the artist or the current rights holder (for distributing prints of that work in that territory, which might not be the same as the rights holder for other uses).

Ownership of ‘what the painting represents’ isn’t really something the law takes much of a position on.

i co-founded the center for election science. this is superficially reasonable, but IRV could paradoxically make things worse by squandering election reform resources (namely, money) on a suboptimal and overly complex fix, at the cost of progress on approval voting, score voting, etc. then, if IRV gets repealed often due to its complexity, we end up worse off. alaska is plausibly going to repeal IRV this november.

I think command-line has many benefits, although GUI has uses too. My idea is to make it that you can easily interact the GUI with the command-line interface too; this means that commands in the GUI can be entered into the command window (e.g. by dragging them with the mouse by the proper combination of modifier keys and mouse buttons), and can set recording (with any programs), etc. This would allow you to use both together; unfortunately most systems today do not work GUI and command-line together very well, but this could be improved.

A lot of early remote access was done by hackers. Same with exploiting vulnerabilities.

One of my favorite is the Robin Hood worm: https://users.cs.utah.edu/~elb/folklore/xerox.txt

TL;DR: Engineers from Motorola exploited a vulnerability illustrate it, and they did so in a humorous way. Within the tribe of hackers, this is pretty normal, but the only difference between that and stealing everything once the vulnerability has been exploited is intent.

Normies only hear about the ones where people steal things. They don't care about the funny kind.
