My bad, I done my research and seen that after Jobs passed away, Apple quickly became part of this Prism program.

So with this new knowledge, yes it’s likely just a strategy to keep people thinking that Apple cares about privacy so to keep using their devices maybe?

I'm not sure I get what you're saying here. Competing with Russians over heavy element synthesis is one of the very most important topics in physics today? What is the actual scientific value of the research, what do we learn from it? Is it just that one day we might find a stable element?
In small businesses like that, how often do profits actually appear? It seems like big public companies often decide to increase spending to chase growth that would increase revenue and be profit-neutral. Do smaller companies think about it in the same way?

They churn out new parts and don't bring in fixes. See all the chips in their lineup that have a USB host controller. Every one of them (they use Synopsys IP) will fail with multiple LS devices through a hub.
We talked to our FAE about this and they have no plans to fix it. The bug has existed for years and the bad IP is being baked into all the new chips still.
Solution? Just use yet another chip for its host controller, and don't use a hub.
I've watched it all while doing something else because I never understood MrBeast's success, had listened to some interviews he had done before, and apart from learning how to manipulate YouTube.

I never really believed in the whole "I invest everything back into my videos", he always sounded unauthentic/ingenuine to me for some reason.

The key points I got from background listening:

1. MrBeast is a fraud by advertising that all of his videos are real, while most are heavily edited.

2. MrBeast uses psychological techniques to manipulate children: call to actions (subscribing) with positive or negative reinforcement; then evolved into scam giveaways where the prizes are never distributed. [0]

3. MrBeast's game shows are rigged, and unfair, against any Standards and Practices that public broadcast shows are required to follow by law.

4. MrBeast runs illegal lotteries by promising to give away prizes, one example is signing merch and selecting an order at random time windows to have the next prize in the parcel. Prizes can vary from videogames, valuable electronics, all the way to cash amounts.

4.1. The merch signing is also somewhat fraudulent, some other crew members sign off the merch with MrBeast's signature to make the fans believe they got it signed by Jimmy himself.

5. MrBeast evolved these techniques to push kids into gambling for possible prizes to the real world with Feastables, stating there were tickets to participate in some event with him distributed at random between all Feastables; a YouTuber with 700k+ subscribers was "randomly" one of the winners. [1]

6. MrBeast's advertising of Feastables was initially that those were much healthier than a Hershey's bar, using less ingredients (implying that Hershey's composition was unhealthy); after those initial claims the recipe was changed and almost matches all the ingredients in a Hershey's bar.

The summary to me is that MrBeast is exploiting children with the same mechanisms of lootboxes, basically making children become gamblers; pushing it into the real world by making them purchase (and potentially consume) as many chocolate bars they can get for a very, very small chance of winning some prize. It's not known how fair the distribution of prizes is among those bars.

As usual, another grifter, this one chose to exploit children so many consider him smart.

> What you're arguing is the right for an employer to necessarily hold more leverage in negotiation as opposed to workers. Which... isn't a right. It's an anti-right. As in, you want less rights for workers.

No. My argument is that forcing companies to only negotiate with unions if that isn't want the company wants to do is an anti-right. It violates free trade. You disallow entity A from negotiating with entity B because entity C doesn't like it.

> Just like a right to life implies an anti-right to kill, a right to fair negotiations implies an anti-right for employers to choose not to negotiate with unions.

My point above is illustrated here. Person A being alive doesn't impact person B being alive, or person C being alive.

Disallowing entity A from negotiating with entity B as entity C means that you are now infringing on entity A and entity B as an external third party.

As entity C, you would be perfectly within reason to inform entity A you will not trade with them if they do not negotiate through entity D or if they negotiate with any of your peers through any channel other than entity D. Entity A would get to decide if you offer more value. But to be entities X, Y, Z and disallow entities A and B from trade is anti-rights.
The common definition of “Aspect oriented programming” is more or less “just bolt whatever CLOS method combinators already can do onto another language”. That is powerful concept, but maybe somewhat orthogonal to macros, unless you want to do that with macros, which you certainly can.

Many of these people also have the power of durability. We shall see if Rupert Murdoch's legacy endures.
They shouldn't have complete control over governence because, especially in larger businesses, the shareholders are less invested in what a business does than the stakeholders.

A classic example would be an employee forced to work in an unhealthy manner. If the cost of replacing the employee when they're worn out is less than the extra profit made by causing the employee to work in that manner it might be the right form of governance for shareholders. Even if it would not be profitable if the health costs weren't externalised.

I side with Dennett (and Turing for that matter) that a "p-zombie" is a logically incoherent thing. Demonstrating understanding is the same as having understanding because there is no test that can distinguish the two.

Are LLMs human? No. Can they do everything humans do? No. But they can do a large enough subset of things that until now nothing but a human could do that we have no choice but to call it "thinking". As Hofstadter says - if a system is isomorphic to another one, then its symbols have "meaning", and this is indeed the definition of "meaning".

Both ways of looking at it are equivalent, in my view.
The better performance of a fit person is partly explained by more muscles (incl. heart), but a significant part of performance boost is the fact that body autoregulates (e.g. by sweating and keeping the temperature perfect for activity, instead of letting body overheat, which results in a performance drop) itself so much better.

Raising the heart rate much faster is also part of a better self-regulation of a fit person.

This is already happening, most have either announced or are already monetizing their output with ads.

A few (inlcuding Kagi's LLM assisted search) will be monetized through user/customer subscriptions exclusively.

As with search, these two business models will lead to different outcomes for the users.

Arch is especially nice because it has best in class documentation and vanilla packages. The installation is a bog standard chroot and use package manager like Gentoo had for ages or an old school Debian. Arch is nice because it’s as vanilla as a Linux distribution can be.

NixOS is the polar opposite of that: basically no documentation, weird behaviours everywhere, custom configuration, custom file system. Pretty much as far removed from Arch as something can be.

> you get "availability" in that the cloud "is always available",

The cloud isn't what's being described as available. The service is available or not. The service is hosted on multiple computers that talk to each other. If they stop talking to each other, the service needs to either become unavailable (choosing consistency) or risk having not up to date data (choosing availability).

COM dates back to a time when OO languages were uncommon but the techniques were being used in C.

I worked on a system back then that had “objects” that was based heavily around function pointers.

When we first got hold of the cfront C++ pre processor it did much the same thing but automated all the kludges we had for compile time checking.

So I wouldn’t really class something like COM as object adjacent, it was more “proto” OO
In a sense, the model _is_ simply applying a finite and known set of axioms and manipulations. What makes this hard in practice is that the number of possible ways in which to perform multiple steps of this sort of axiomatic reasoning grows exponentially with the length of the shortest possible solution for a given problem. This is similar to the way in which the tree of possible futures in games like go/chess grows exponentially as one tries to plan further into the future.

This makes it natural address these problems using similar techniques, which is what this research team did. The "magic" in their solution is the use of neural nets to make good guesses about which branches of these massive search trees to explore, and make good guesses about how good any particular branch is even before they reach the end of the branch. These tricks let them (massively) reduce the effective branching factor and depth of the search trees required to produce solutions to math problems or win board games.

I'm not sure about the AI features but the concept of working with code on a canvas and having some sort of flowchart UI has been a dream of mine for some time. I mainly do data processing and draw lots of flowcharts for communicating pipelines and also for myself.

> I want the freedom to exchange my services for money without having to care about all the bullshit ownership ensues.

Then sell immediately, no one here is proposing forcing ownership onto employees. For nearly all Americans owning something significant that is likely to grow in value distinct from the output of their labor is an exceptional opportunity.

Just like how when children were given the opportunity to leave the mines for good there wasn't a massive popular resurgence to make abusive child labor legal again. Most people wanted kids out of mines and into other opportunities.

Most people want wealth. Most people want better opportunity than coal mines. If you want to sell your ownership you can. If you want to mine coal you can when you reach the age of majority.

Rather than view de-facto employee ownership as a burden it is an opportunity to leave a metaphorical coal mine, if you want. You could choose either way if society made de-facto ownership for labor a thing. Right most of us don't have choice.

You are making a extraordinary claim of security which stands diametrically opposed to the consensus that things are easily hacked. You need to present extraordinary evidence to support such a claim. You can see my other reply for what I would consider minimal criteria for evidence.
I believe an awful lot of it is due to allowing third party sellers.

And I think a lot of it is third party sellers uploading their catalogs without trying to sanely de-dupe it vs what's already there. And Amazon certainly doesn't help in how they organize their search results. Please give me a simple size and quantity separate from the description. So often I have to open up a bunch of entries because the description is long enough to push that off the summary you see on the search page.

I also think there are a lot of entries on there where the main objective is to get accidentally grabbed when the main supplier is out of stock.

the key word is “uniformly”. If your data is not uniformly distributed, then you just have to pick random values non-uniformly.
