Your rant reminds me of a 40 year old Saturday Night Live sketch where they're doing an open access television show called Women's Problems. And it's all guys.

It bothers me because I feel there are political repercussions I don't like. Because the people trying to force Latinx on Hispanics keep trying to force people to think of them as an oppressed minority. That's a problem because they're trying impose a low status. That's never a winner.

I’m attempting to keep the context ball rolling by reiterating key points of a request throughout the conversation.

The challenge is writing in a tone that will gently move the conversation rather than refocus it. I can’t just inject “remember point n+1” and hope that’s not all it’ll talk about in the next frame.

If nothing else, LLMs have helped me understand exactly why GIGO is a fundamental law.

Well, you’re not wrong in theory about the wall and floor, but if everyone did what you’re suggesting, public gyms would not exist.

The Peloton subscription does not just include cycling programs - there are many other exercise disciplines. The bike is expensive yes, but is a solid piece of kit and works great with the software (obviously I guess).

I don’t use our sub much these days but my partner still very much loves it. She uses it for the bike itself as well as yoga, stretches and some others.

The instructors are frankly incredible, there are so many of them and all provide different experiences. They are what you’re ultimately paying for.

Exercise is just as important for health is food is, it’s not all about losing weight.

>Now imagine that HTMZ comes along and people just go straight to asking how to full justify text in HTMZ for their smart bucket. What happens? I doubt we’ll get good answers.

So, I think the answer is that since all useful data is already in a LLM somewhere all new data will be stolen/scraped and inserted in real time. So if real people are answering the question it will work as normal. The real question is what happens when people are trying to mine karma by answering questions using an LLM that is hallucinating. We have seen such with the Bug Bounty silliness going on.
The existence of LessWrong does make me want to steer the Earth into the Sun. All that effort supposedly reinventing human dialogue in terms of what is maximally rational and instead you get insights not far above the level of your below average NYT op-ed column.
>If we are going to bring cost into it, then digital pianos are superior in term of tuning (one might argue about other aspects of sound and feel). Same tuning every time, no adjustment needed.

I think they tune them slightly differently depending on what's going to be played. But I suppose a master pianist could have a whole database of their preferences saved up or something.
Peloton's interesting -- for the audience they target they have a pretty good product (if you're setting up your road bike on your stationary trainer and signing into Zwift, you're not their audience), they have a committed and paying user base, and their instructors turned into legit celebrities.

But the market decided they were going to be the next Apple, and they had a CEO stoking those flames (and killing a few kids along the way). Turns out that 2020 was not a great year to be forecasting who was going to be the next Apple (who would have guessed), and now they're paying the price.

If the market had accepted that Peloton was actually just a good fitness company they probably would have had the opportunity to be a decent company, just not the next Apple. Maybe not every company should try to pursue infinite growth.
I am used to thinking that if i want to post code that "anyone" would understand it'd be in C but i wonder if nowadays JavaScript would be a better choice (as long as it applies to JS anyway) for a "lingua franca".

I literally said "Some people will never buy a used peloton, so this doesn't affect them. Some people will never buy a new one"

The kind of people dropping $1.5k on a spin bike to pay $45/month for a glorified youtube don't care much about resale value.
Fair. In my head I consider “dicking around” a part of opportunity loss. Basically sacrificing whatever your definition of fun is with having children and the responsibilities that come with it.

I learned about shallow water hypoxia when I first took up SCUBA diving (before most of you were born :)). It occurs during ascent, for two reasons. The most obvious is that you've been holding your breath longer when you're ascending. The other is that when your body is under pressure, the partial pressure of oxygen in your lungs is higher, allowing the hemoglobin to absorb more. As you ascend and the pressure lessens, the partial pressure of oxygen decreases accordingly.

Apparently shallow water hypoxia is now a thing that life guards worry about, despite the fact that it's unlikely in a swimming pool. I swam underwater about fifty feet in my neighborhood pool, which is five feet deep, and was told by the lifeguard never to do that again. Indeed there's a sign that says "don't hold your breath underwater." Maybe you're supposed to breathe underwater?

I blame the American Red Cross, which has a history of dumb things IMO, starting with teaching the crawl stroke to non-swimmers instead of the side stroke or back stroke, both of which require far less coordination, and allow you to keep your face out of the water while swimming.

But don't get me started, or I'll tell you about "drown proofing."

it is very hard not to observe said tendency, though really I was hoping that it was just that programmers always been rich enough to undergo transition. is this still true, though, perhaps now you can be jobless and still somehow apply for transition? depending on GPS coordinates, of course, but possible here and there.

this mentioning of potential trans-paraphernalia in an article calling to all hackers is a little misleading (imho), biased perhaps, or even influential. it is a statement i guess.

back in our teen hacker days we heard stories of ppl building molotovs, credit card scammers, eavesdropping equipment, lock-pick etc. but biohacking and female hormonal medicine in particular has definitely not been on the list (that much) if memory serves right... and my bet is that Phrack back-archive can confirm it.

perhaps it is a logical to see a change in popular understanding what hackers can find, or do, or are defined by. curiosity and daring courage to intrude is one thing, we can all agree.

perhaps also we may agree that hacking one's body is still hacking, as social engineering IS considered hacking.
Personally I use a hybrid, or Emacs under X11, witch is arguably a GUI but also text-based and why for me is because of:

- integration :: I can create in a single keypress (bind to org-store-link) a link to be inserted in a note (another single keypress, org-insert-link) to pretty anything, a specific place in a file, a whole file to be open with a specific app, a mail message, ...

- end-user-programming :: meaning I can easily have a function (or a script, outside Emacs, maybe) that when a new electricity bill email arrive to my inbox it add relevant information in the relevant contract note, an agenda info, a "special timer" [1] that check my BeanCount transaction for a relevant entry after a certain date etc. With LITTLE coding an user can get a personal BI without a BI monster and issues of feeding it all the time.

GUIs suffer from not being textual enough, TUIs due to the lack of full graphics abilities.

Desktop computing in a network is the most powerful form of computing we have, and unfortunately it's long lost for a modern mainframe model (cloud+mobile) witch is terribly limited and limiting and most not knowing anything else do not even understand the limit.

You're not wrong but I would make a distinction between removing features (which requires little or no R&D and saves money immediately) and designing custom ASICs (which requires large upfront R&D and pay off only over time and at large scale).

Before I finish typing this, I want to make it clear that I'm just having fun with the numbers/math/language here.

Even that statement doesn't really work outside of fully unique values across a specific distribution. Take samples where you have many duplicates, and you can easily have the vast majority of values flat out be the average/median when you have some distributions. Is why I picked average number of fingers. The VAST majority of counts there are the same value. The outliers being dwarfed to insignificance both high and low.

For more continuous distributions, https://stats.stackexchange.com/questions/326304/in-a-given-... is a pretty good quick google of what I mean.

Now, what is the distribution of driving ability? I have no idea. I see no reason to think it is a normal distribution, though.
The question is whether the concept of data is essential to how we structure computation.

Computation is a physical process and any model we use to build or describe this process is imposed by us. Whether this model should include the concept of data (and their counterparts "functions") is really the question here. While I don't think the data/function concept is essential to modeling computation, I also have a hard time diverging too far from these ideas because that is all I have seen for decades. I believe Kay is challenging us to explore the space of other concepts that can model computation.
Sure, societies evolve, but they evolve together. Introducing heterogeneity is an entirely different thing. Name a single developed country in the last 70 years where high immigration from the developing world has improved quality of life and the social and political order?

Sweden is the bellwether for this. They have a negative immigration rate now. They tried immigration, realized it didn’t work, and stopped it. Just like they tried social democracy in the 1960s, realized it didn’t work, and moved back to a more market economy in the 1980s.
I meant that they made developers make changes to their apps. The obvious difference is that this change will cost the developers more money. The point was that developers didn't simply abandon Apple when they switched to ARM. I guess this point may be obvious now but IIRC there was a lot of discussion around if Apple would be able to make developers make native ARM versions of their apps or if they would just abandon MacOS (although perhaps I am remembering wrong here). The point is that they made "every mac out there unusable" to an certain extent, (although obviously there was a Rosetta 2) and it didn't matter because developers followed Apple's direction and made them usable again by making ARM versions of their software.

So it wasn't a problem that the other party made up 70% of justices where they started counting? It's just a problem now that it's approaching 60% the other way. If anything it's been closer to 50/50 for the past 30 years now...

In 24 States, Supreme Court Justices are chosen by election, including most of the states mentioned in this article... couldn't it just be the will of the people? That's the process the article is actually disrespecting here, right?
The cloud's point was to be a computing utility, not to use commodity hardware. They may have been using commodity hardware but it was just a means to an end. That was also the era that "commodity hardware" was a literal game changer for all forms of large-scale computing for businesses, as before then you'd be beholden to an overpriced, over-valued proprietary computing vendor with crap support and no right to fix or modify it yourself. But anyway, the businesses you're referencing are literally the largest tech companies in the world; custom hardware is pretty normal at that size.
If you dont resistance train, any weight loss regimen will cause a loss of lean body mass, medications aren't different from an "organically" achieved caloric deficit. Training and size of the deficit as well as genetics heavily shift the proportion of adipose to lean tissue (which includes water) lost.

So far as i know, the signal that glp1 agonists are particularly worse for lean mass retention isn't strong enough to claim that they're worse for muscle mass retention than normal dieting.
Apple is a two (three?) trillion dollar company.

No, but I don't go to management to handle personal issues. I just handle them. When you go to management, you have to accept management's decision. When you just make decisions, you get autonomy.
Well it's not that they can't, but it's definitely work because it's a departure from the traditional model.

Consider an editor feature, e.g. goto-definition. When working in a normal Python environment (global or virtual) the code of your dependencies actually exists on the filesystem. With one of these scripts with inline dependency information, that dependency code perhaps doesn't exist on the filesystem at all, and possibly won't ever until after the script has been run in its special way (e.g. with a `pipx run` shebang?).
I think Japan has grown considerably beyond this by exporting their Yen through extremely low interest rates. But even that too has a ceiling. Stretching to the obscene in 100 years, the Japanese people may go extinct, but the Yen will live on continuing to prop up financial markets across the world. The way the US dollar was taken off the gold standard, the Yen has been taken off the Japanese people standard...

3:2 is the perfect fifth. 2:1 is the octave. Hence if you climb (or descend) by perfect fifths you never align with the notes you get if you climb (descend) by octaves.

Look up "just intonation" and "equal temperament" if you are interested. Also "The Well-Tempered Clavier" is highly recommended for listening!
None of this supports your claim that these roles are "within the marketing department". Phil Schiller is a _former_ marketing VP, a position he left 4 years ago. Carson Oliver has been business management roles his entire tenure at Apple. Ann Thai worked in apps marketing, but moved to product 4 years ago. These execs have marketing experience, but none of them came directly from marketing roles and one has no marketing background. Fischer, the guy who's leaving, hasn't worked in marketing since 2010.
You are asking about the most unsafe use case "only". So no option is safe, all of them are insecure. Obviously without knowing more, Apple and Windows devices are less secure than Linux just for the fact that they are more targetted by criminals (among other things)

I've been using Instant for about 6 months and have been very happy. Realtime, relational, and offline were the most important things for us, building out a relatively simple schema (users, files, projects, teams) that also is local first. Tried a few others unsuccessfully and after Instant, haven't looked back.

Congrats team!
The graphql schema / string language is not required. For example, Juniper defines the graphql schema and queries using rust structs and impls: https://graphql-rust.github.io/juniper/types/objects/index.h... and the actual on-the-wire encoding and decoding format can be anything.

That was my thought about part of the process too, like does YT and Spotify use a lower bitrate if you're using usb out vs analog out vs bluetooth? Plus if the data connection is 4g vs 5g or sitting in the driveway using wifi, how does that affect the streaming?

I'm not an audiophile by any means, but streaming almost always sounds worse than CD or even sometimes radio.

> We learn to live with it, but it isn't right, for simple pieces you can tune a piano for that exact song and make it sound much better

"Better" is always relative, so it's often more correct to say it is/sounds "different".

For example, a true temperament guitar can sound weird/"wrong" to some people. A lot of folks are used to those compromises just being part of the sound. Similar to a "honky tonk" piano: if you tuned it differently, it would come across as a timbre change more than simply "better" tuning.

In the grand scheme of things, there are professions and arts that were once considered essential to everyday life and in ways that we today don't even consider. The profession is lost to time, but so is the need. It's the in-between transitional state, where the profession is in the process of dying, that is the most painful period.

Some day, the last note played on a piano will be played and lament for the piano tuner will die with it.

> Would it be possible to export basically the entire program at once and then slice off individual functions one by one?

Yes. The exporters can handle whatever meaningful address selection you can throw at them, including multiple disjoint ranges within the same section. So you can keep carving holes inside your selection until nothing remains of the original program.

> Do you have any guides/examples of the Ship of Theseus-style style project?

Not quite. My own decompilation project is on a hiatus due to one version tracking session too many in a row, so I only have one article on this so far [1] and the way I've done it is a bit wonky.

Another user has recently started a decompilation project [2] with a better framework than I've used in that article, but no actual decompilation has taken place there yet. Incidentally, that would also make for a good modding framework, if one decides to not write functionally identical replacement code.

I think this is the same with programming too. Professionals trust the traditions they have been inducted into and replicate its conventions encouraging novices to do the same. It quickly becomes _the_ way to do it.

More cynically, you could see this as professionals protecting preserving their position in society as practitioners of a magic that would be commonplace if translated into the vernacular of the laity.
