The gist is that as long as your business model is collecting certain data that can be used to identify individuals you must cater for the insider threat and for instance implement segregation of duties. When you do not manage the risk of the data you’re collecting that’s when you end up together with ubiquity.

This is for corporations with 40 years of code in production, that hardly do greenfield development.

How will Rust look in 40 years, if it reaches thus far?

When will rustc stop depending on a C++ compiler construction framework?
>Intelligence is something that gets monotone easier as compute increases and trivial at the large compute limit (for instance can brute force simulate a human at large enough compute)

It gets monotone easier but the increase can be so slow that even using all the energy in the observable universe wouldn't make a meaningful difference, e.g. for problems in the exponential complexity class.

Interesting small creatures, which (as a side note) can have enormous ecological impacts as the Wikipedia article mentions:

"On the other hand, in the late 1980s the Western Atlantic ctenophore Mnemiopsis leidyi was accidentally introduced into the Black Sea and Sea of Azov via the ballast tanks of ships, and has been blamed for causing sharp drops in fish catches by eating both fish larvae and small crustaceans that would otherwise feed the adult fish."

The alternative is to not only learn from, appreciate, and re-install traditional and indigenous practices in conservation efforts as much as possible, but also try and expand our idea of nature to include the conservation of species in landscapes that do not conform to the traditional sense of pristine wilderness.

It is about respecting those who live on the planet with us, and the wilderness myth allows the people you speak about exploit everything other than a very narrow idea of what is wild, and valuable.

While the heuristic is useful for, say, a rainforest eco-system, it actively de-values the plains/ grasslands/ marshes ecosystems just because they do not conform to the ideal we think about when we think about wilderness.
This is actually how we tackle smoking in a large part. There's a lot of regulation on smoking!
You are being incredibly obtuse here. Imagine if a top secret document was published. The fact of the document being published does not mean that the document is no longer classified as top secret, just because it has been viewed by people without requisite clearance. Here, the order was secret and due to being a secret order, the public was not aware of it until X released documentation of the order. Documentation being released on the order does not mean that it was not a secret order.
Oh, I had a similar experience - need to ping him again.
Because, as you guessed, no implementation other than SBCL comes close to the performance needed.
I've done all of this and then some. I used to deploy websites by FTPing into the server and copying files. Then it was bash scripts, then Ansible. IMO Kubernetes hits a very good level of abstraction. You can totally deploy 30 lines of bash to every server, you just have to wrap it in a docker container. That's all k8s asks for for a workload. You don't have to use operators. That would be something to explore much later. Honestly I just think you should be more generous and not assume people have created this stuff just for fun. K8s really does address real problems around deployment and it's very well thought out.
Malware can hide in the frame buffer at modern resolutions. They could keep a full copy of it and each frame transition too.
I conjecture the line is not so easy to draw.

If you are creating Lisp because you want to create Lisp, like creating Lisp, want to show off creating Lisp, that obviously is not what the Law is about.

Furthermore, if you create Lisp because you know the Law, know it is inevitable, and want to avoid the caveats and missed bars by doing so explicitly, well then that also is not what the Law is about.

But if you are going about your business, focused on your independent goal, realize you need Lisp like lists, and then 250 lines of code later realize you have created a solid Lisp unintentionally? Well, congrats on falling into the trap but not getting hurt!

Personally, I have created both Lisp and Forth multiple times for suitable projects where I wanted some flexible runtime scripting. I am not familiar with the standard version libraries of either and don’t need them.

Minimal foundation implementations are extremely easy to create, and eliminate any dependencies or sources of mystery.

Just like porn sites adopting HTML5 video long before YouTube (and many other examples) I have a feeling the adult side will be a major source of innovation in AI for a long time.

There will probably be the Hollywood vs Piratebay dynamic soon. The AI for work and soccer moms and the actually good risk taking AI (LLMs) that the tech savvy use.

I have different experience with chat apps. When someone asks for my WhatsApp I offer Signal or Matrix. If they really want to keep in touch with me, they listen and asks. I recently convince few friends to try those apps and we use them to communicate till today. One of them completely deleted all Meta accounts after many conversations about abusing privacy by their apps.

If you resign from your right of privacy and excuse it with collectivism, nothing stop companies and governments to steal everything from you piece by piece.

For verification of bank transaction, I never used any app. Banks business is not built on smartphones and apps. Its not condition for using their services. If so, I would quickly find competition.
This has been a phenomenon of the endless liquidity train of the past 3-4 years. People doing very stupid things with money knowing more is always coming. There are certain stocks like palantir that are very obviously in bubbles where the market celebrates its inclusion in a stock index and sends the shares up 15%. The CEO just self produced a video recognizing retail traders and using the term “tendies.” The mistake this cycle though has been to assume that won’t work
Discussions on checksumming filesystems usually revolve around ZFS and BTRFS, but has someone any experience with bcachefs? It's upstreamed in the linux kernel, I learned, and is supposed to have full checksumming. The author also seems to take filesystem responsibility seriously.

Situations where you have analysis paralysis are situations where the solutions are, as far as you know, equally good.

That means picking any solution will be good enough. So do that. Roll a die, and pick one solution.

The Stockholm syndrome is when propaganda get people to believe a theory so strongly that even when all evidence and circumstance gets removed, even when it’s scientifically proven to not be true, even when direct facts contradict the stated propagada, people continue to believe the propaganda.

In a hostage situation, telling the government “stop trying to get us murdered” is not a mental illness. Being dissatisfied with the governments handling of the situation is not “siding with your captors because you’ve fallen in love with them” but people will to the end of times continue to believe these falls narratives because the government propaganda to discredit completely reasonable criticism was just that damn effective.

That is premise to give companies and governments control over everything. If collectivism is more valued to you than right for privacy, nothing stop them to steal all of you data piece by piece.

Twitter doesn't get to decide what is legal or what isn't in Brazil. If they feel something is illegal, Brazil has a judicial system they can use, but until then they are expected to comply with court orders like in any other country in the world. Instead Musk announced they will not comply, pulled the representatives of Twitter in Brazil and now has his service banned. So it very much is about Musk because it was his decision to defy the court on the basis of protecting free speech, although again he routinely bans users from Twitter that mock him.
From passionate love to complete disinterest in a matter seconds. Interesting.

Admittedly, when you consider people as a technology, one does start to wonder what it would take to fix the glaring bugs. But then that questions if the technology provides enough value to bother with at all.

It's really annoying we only get public reports on proprietary system failures when there are high profile deaths (and sometimes not even then).

Just because something didn't go wrong this time doesn't mean the risk is gone, and doesn't mean the rest of humanity wouldn't benefit from knowing every little thing that went into creating risks that were only detected after crewed launch.
That's fascinating. I've fooled around with coupled oscillators, using 555 timers, and seen how little coupling is needed to get synchronization. And that you can synchronize at 2:1 or other ratios, although not as easily as 1:1.

The new idea here is that you can have coupled oscillators running at very different frequencies, and only the ones that are close in frequency will couple. So it's sort of like frequency-division multiplexing, or radio. In a radio receiver, there's only one time-varying voltage coming in, but in that one number is the entire spectrum. So this offers the possibility of connecting some large number of elements without a large number of interconnects.

It takes a lot of cycles to do anything with phase locked systems. Maybe. There are efficient modulation strategies.

It's a new way to think about analog computing. Not clear if it's better.

If biological brains were doing this, researchers should be seeing far more high-frequency activity than is actually observed. There's speculation that something in biological neurons ought to be going fast, because brains seem to get more done than ought to be possible with such slow signals. So far, nobody has found that.
EEG measurements, even at the single neuron level, seem to be below 30 Hz.
There was an article on HN a few weeks ago with speculation that something optical was going on. But it was just speculation.

Some of that is almost certainly confounded by the fact that many asthma medications - most notably salbutamol - are performance-enhancing drugs; an asthma diagnosis allows an athlete to take drugs under a therapeutic use exemption that would otherwise result in a ban.

That's not true at all.

WADA does not require a therapeutic usage order for normal usage salbutamol. Anyone who needs it can use it at the dosages required to control asthma.

At these dosages it has not been shown to improve performance, as mentioned in the abstract of the first link you cited.

Further I would offer [1],[2] and [3] as evidence for why you are wrong. Salbutamol does not improve performance at normal dosages.

Sure, on Linux, where your only common options bash or "software".

On Windows, with PowerShell, I can don't have to write a software program. I can write a script that reads like a hypothetical C# Shell would, but oriented towards interactive shells.

(Note that there is a CS-Script, but it's a different thing intended for different use-cases.)
Canonical took a team of lawyers to deeply review the license in 2016. It's beyond my legal skills to say if the conclusion made it more or less of an issue, at least the boundaries should now be more clear, for those who understand these matters more.

The first four parts of my Typesetting Markdown blog describes improving the user-friendliness of bash scripts. In particular, you can use bash to define a reusable script that allows isolating software dependencies, command-line arguments, and parsing.

https://dave.autonoma.ca/blog/2019/05/22/typesetting-markdow...

In effect, create a list of dependencies and arguments:

#!/usr/bin/env bash
source $HOME/bin/build-template

DEPENDENCIES=(
"gradle,https://gradle.org"
"warp-packer,https://github.com/Reisz/warp/releases"
"linux-x64.warp-packer,https://github.com/dgiagio/warp/releases"
"osslsigncode,https://www.winehq.org"
)

ARGUMENTS+=(
"a,arch,Target operating system architecture (amd64)"
"o,os,Target operating system (linux, windows, macos)"
"u,update,Java update version number (${ARG_JAVA_UPDATE})"
"v,version,Full Java version (${ARG_JAVA_VERSION})"
)

The build-template can then be reused to enhance other shell scripts. Note how by defining the command-line arguments as data you can provide a general solution to printing usage information:

https://gitlab.com/DaveJarvis/KeenWrite/-/blob/main/scripts/...

Further, the same command-line arguments list can be used to parse the options:

https://gitlab.com/DaveJarvis/KeenWrite/-/blob/main/scripts/...

If you want further generalization, it's possible to have the template parse the command-line arguments automatically for any particular script. Tweak the arguments list slightly by prefixing the name of the variable to assign to the option value provided on the CLI:

ARGUMENTS+=(
"ARG_JAVA_ARCH,a,arch,Target operating system architecture (amd64)"
"ARG_JAVA_OS,o,os,Target operating system (linux, windows, macos)"
"ARG_JAVA_UPDATE,u,update,Java update version number (${ARG_JAVA_UPDATE})"
"ARG_JAVA_VERSION,v,version,Full Java version (${ARG_JAVA_VERSION})"
)

If the command-line options require running different code, it is possible to accommodate that as well, in a reusable solution.
in the 01950s the parametron was one of many approaches being considered for computing at microwave frequencies; it's kind of amazing that it took until the 01980s for microwave computing to realize its potential, and then by way of conventional 'level-based' combinationial logic and flip-flops rather than through oscillator-based computing
Saggital plane I think
Reminds me of when I read the book. It was very nicely written and persuasive until the point where it got to my ancestors, whom it described as living near rich fishing grounds and developing really good boats — and hungering rather than eating fish.

From that point, I admired the book for the smooth writing. The writing was good enough to almost overlook the gap in the plot.

What do you think you're saying here? If Elon's companies were ever served a US warrant, it wouldn't be a FISA warrant. Telecommunications providers are compelled to provide information under FISA, but this has nothing to do with FISA warrants. FISA warrants are simply a method for government agencies to obtain permission to perform surveillance on the entity specified by the warrant. They aren't served to domestic companies. The idea doesn't even make sense.

This five year prediction seems odd to me. Autonomous vehicles have to navigate in a world that was designed for human driven vehicles. If you were to design an autonomous transportation system in the middle of New Mexico from scratch it would almost certainly look nothing like what we have today which is comprised primarily of visual cues designed to be highly noticeable to human eyesight. That’s to say nothing of cars themselves being designed around the assumption of a human driver.

I guess what I’m trying to say is that it’s very difficult to imagine that if AVs take over let’s say over the next 30 years that the end result will still be running on the same infrastructure we rely on today and that if we will still be a society where most people drive most of the time that AVs will really be all that transformative in the first place since they would be filling a sizeable but still relatively small use case- taking a cab around a major city. I can’t tell whether it’s the amazement of seeing a driverless vehicle or the actual utility of it that generates the excitement

Yeah, I think that too. Apple already had some good theft "protection". They definitely have no money incentive to even strengthen that just because they're so altruistic and want to help the customers. They know that they're killing some more small used-parts market here, even the legitimate part, so they're happily taking it. If it means that they will have some more sales, then they'll do it.
Show HN: I removed politics from Twitter with AI
I'm sure you all saw the debate a few days ago, alongside all the tech influencoors giving their mid-takes about politics.
