> Data integrity is the natural expectation humans have from computers

I've said it once, and I'll say it again: the only reason ZFS isn't the norm is because we all once lived through a primordial era when it didn't exist. No serious person designing a filesystem today would say it's okay to misplace your data.

Not long ago, on this forum, someone told me that ZFS is only good because it had no competitors in its space. Which is kind of like saying the heavyweight champ is only good because no one else could compete.

What's going to be even more fun is when the cars gets hacked, given that their are 100+ (200+) car makers, specially with ev cars (WSJ claimed 140+ makers in China) Bloomberg claimed 500+. I'm not dissing Chinese makers. I'm only sure that like everything there's an exponential curve of how serious companies take security. I'm guessing, of the car makers out there, Tesla and Rivan are near the top since they are new and have people with security experience? I'd expect traditional car makers (Ford, Chevy, Chrysler, Toyota, Honda, Nissan) to all be pretty mediocre. And then I'd expect all the tiny companies to be no different than the tiny companies that made the TVs above.

Why does everything have to be a syndrome?

When any animal, including humans, is trapped in a situation they can't escape, failing to adopt a degree of acceptance is bad for their health and survival. Almost all other animals will stop fighting after being held captive for a while, so why shouldn't humans?

When people do bad things they almost always have a reason for it. The reason may be sick, twisted, or wrong. Its 'justification' may be prohibited by our culture and for good reason. The causes of their actions may be, a lest from some perspective, an inevitable conclusion of forces which they felt they could not control. An open mind could often understand why or have sympathy for it, even if they continue to disapprove in the strongest way possible.

Humans are very social and often become friendly with people they spend a lot of time around or interact with a lot. Even when they start out with very different views or places, or with a profound disagreement.

In plenty of situations outside of captive abuse people sometimes fall into the trap of becoming addicted to abusive treatment, be it the rare bits of approval or reprieve from the expected abuse, or simply the fact that they're the center of attention (even if its negative attention). -- if you've not seen this happen first hand, I envy your sheltered existence.

People outside of a situation are also not blameless. Why didn't they prevent it? Why didn't they rescue the person sooner? Why can't they understand how significant the event was and why can't they understand how significant the event wasn't? Why can't they accept that you do or don't feel defined by it? I think it would be easy to feel worse about the people who let you be taken hostage than the hostage taker, the hostage taker owed you nothing, the hostage taker wasn't in a position of trust, the hostage taker will suffer retribution for their acts, but perhaps the people who screwed up preventing it will be called heros.

So with all these factors at play why should any out of a wide spectrum of responses to a adverse situation not be considered perfectly natural?

This kinda seems like it's throwing a drowning man a brick. China has deflation pressure[1], and this is going to mean even less money chasing their goods. It makes me wonder if the US is trying to avoid the deflation contagion spreading here. It's also possible that NATO has evidence that China has been caught red-handed supporting Russia[2] militarily in breach of sanctions, and this is just the first phase of China going through some things.

Of course China can tit-for-tat this move, but then again if they're about to enter a deflationary period then they might be importing fewer raw goods anyway. If they're about to be hit with severe sanctions for materially supporting Russia in the Ukraine invasion then they're absolutely going to be importing fewer US goods.

The worst responses are links to something the generalized you can't be bothered to summarize. Providing a link is fine, but don't expect us to do the work to figure out what you are trying to say via your link.
Couldn't they do it in a similar manner as all of the ad tracking stuff that places signals in frequencies out of human hearing ranges? By all types, do you mean my WiFi router too, or just the public broadcasters like TV/Radio?

If you're considering commercial broadcast transmitters, there's a downside in that most markets have a central place that is ideal transmission tower location for that area. This means that each station's signal will be very close to each other making them essentially the same location. Smaller stations tend to pop up in different places than the "big boys", but they're also lower power.
Sorry to be cynical, but to me it feels very much like OpenAI has no clue how to further innovate, so they took their existing models and just made them talk to each other under the hood to get marginally better results - something that people have been doing with Langchain for a while now.

I will just lean back and wait for the scandal to blow up when some whistleblower reveals that the hidden output tokens about the thought process are billed much higher than they should be - this hidden cost system is just such a tempting way to get far more money for the needed energy/gpu costs, so that they can keep buying more GPUs to train more models faster, I don't see how people as reckless and corrupt as Sam Altman could possibly resist this temptation.

Yes it has a "needle". It's a plastic filament, and it's inserted inside a metal needle that gets removed with the applicator.

It was actually entirely "painless" to apply. I braced myself, hit the button, and went "did it happen?" and saw something stuck in my arm. 100% couldn't tell. THAT SAID, I spent the next 3 days going "ughhhhhhh my arm hurts" so I must've hit something. I squished the flesh around a bit, and massaged my arm and it stopped after a few days. I can't tell if I got unlucky, or if this is just what "new thing in my arm" feels like.
Tesla primarily sells into coastal cities where the driving conditions and use cases are ideal for an EV sedan. That said, most of the people I know with a Tesla also have an ICE SUV or truck.

Indeed, though they could-- outside of dense multi-tenant facilities-- and it would improve the indoor air quality with almost certain health benefits.

AFAICT demonizing gas will not have a significant improvement to indoor air quality, as it doesn't address the root cause of poor ventilation.

It may cause health harm by making people falsely believe the issue is addressed by not using gas. At least with gas it is relatively obvious that ventilation is an issue.
Is it worth making a corolla electric right now? It's a budget car. New costs 22k

Rav 4 gas starts at 28k, and Rav 4 prime is 43k,so 15k more

If your going to buy a 37k electric sedan, with that budget your probably not looking at a corolla anymore?
>The rationale is that while you may own the land, you don't own the artifacts[...]

At first I bristled a little, but given a pause to think it through, it makes great sense!

Fact is, we as a species did not advance quickly enough to record our origins and a lot of our history. Perhaps this kind of thing always happens. Nobody knows and we have a sample size of one at present.

Our history is a shared thing by our very human condition and the nature of history.

Of course we benefit overall with policy like this even if at times a few of us feel wronged.
> It's possible to create the same amount of redundant storage space with only 6-8 hard drives with RAIDZ2 (RAID 6) redundancy.

I've given up on striped RAID. Residential use requires easy expandability to keep costs down. Expanding an existing parity stripe RAID setup involves failing every drive and slowly replacing them one by one with bigger capacity drives while the whole array is in a degraded state and incurring heavy I/O load. It's easier and safer to build a new one and move the data over. So you pretty much need to buy the entire thing up front which is expensive.

Btrfs has a flexible allocator which makes expansion easier but btrfs just isn't trustworthy. I spent years waiting for RAID-Z expansion only for it to end up being a suboptimal solution that leaves the array in some kind of split parity state, old data in one format and new data in another format.

It's just so tiresome. Just give up on the "storage efficiency" nonsense. Make a pool of double or triple mirrors instead and call it a day. It's simpler to set up, easier to understand, more performant, allows heterogeneous pools of drives which lowers risk of systemic failure due to bad batches, gradual expansion is not only possible but actually easy and doesn't take literal weeks to do, avoids loading the entire pool during resilvering in case of failures, and it offers so much redundancy the only way you'll lose data is if your house literally burns down.

In the first example, the error messages should be going to stderr.
The problem with closing loopholes that are being exploited is that it can be hard to do without causing unwelcome side effects.

In other words, the loophole exists for a reason. If you "close" it you may cause good in one area but harm in others.

So at the very least one should move slowly to at least understand the issue properly, beyond just the obvious exploitation.

For example (and since I know nothing about small parcel imports, I'll use something I'm more familiar with) there's often a knee-jerk reaction to the exploitation of IP laws (trademark, copyright, patents). Some suggest killing it all. Some favor dumping patents but keeping the rest, and so on.

But any change will have "unexpected" consequences. These tools are used by businesses of all sizes and means. Killing copyright because you dont like Microsoft would equally kill things like Free Software (because it would invalidate the freedoms enforced by the GPL.)

So while "immediate action" seems like a good thing at first glance, it seldom works out that way. Throwing tarrifs on imported goods protects local jobs, but equally drives up prices (aka inflation).

So charitably I interpret "intentionally not neighbors changed" to "being changed intentionally, with care to achieve the desired effect not some unwelcome side effect.

Athletes in most sports report significantly above-average rates of asthma. Athletes with an asthma diagnosis generally outperform their non-asthmatic rivals. 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.

People stopped smoking because it's kinda gross, not because of propaganda. Look how much more government propaganda has gone toward eliminating alcohol, weed, and other drugs. People STILL use those drugs, and in some respects they are more popular than ever.

A social credit score only works in an authoritarian regime where you can be hauled off for even slightly criticizing the government. We certainly don't want to resort to anything like that for any problem, as the "solution" is worse.
I looked at the population pyramid for Greece, just guessing but it looks like there are 10% fewer women in their 20s than men.

Sometimes that sort of thing is because men come to work. Sometimes it's because young women up and leave.

Yes. That can be quite effective.

And they shouldn't, unless they can do it in a way that does not disturb considerable use of the spectrum present today.

And perhaps they can! The EU got along with US gps. I bet this can be done here too, no private spectrum required.
Given that the link is a duplication of the content of the original link, but hosted on a different domain, that one can view without logging into Twitter, and given the domain name of "xcancel.org", one might reasonably infer that the response from notamy is provided as a community service to allow users who do not wish to log into Twitter a chance to see the linked content originally hosted on Twitter.

Nitter was one such service. Threadreaderapp is a similar such site.

eh, I think this is pretty reasonable and not a "hack". It matches what we do as people. I think there probably needs to be research into how to tell it when it doesn't know something, however.

I think if you remember that LLMs are not databases, but they do contain a super lossy-compressed version of (it's training) knowledge, this feels less like a hack. If you ask someone, "who won the World Cup in 2000?", they may say "I think it was X, but let me google it first". That person isn't screwed up, using tools isn't a failure.

If the context is a work setting, or somewhere that is data-centric, it totally makes sense to check it. Like a Chat Bot for a store, or company that is helping someone troubleshoot or research. Anything where it really obvious answers that are easy to learn from volumes of data ("what company makes the corolla?"), probably don't need fact checking as often, but why not have the system check its work?

Meanwhile, programming, writing prose, etc are not things you generally fact-check mid-way, and are things that can be "learned" well from statistical volume. Most programmers can get "pretty good" syntax on first try, and any dedicated syntax tool will get to basically 100%, and the same makes sense for an LLM.
I concur that we got school wrong by creating an environment where play, creativity, and any natural interest in learning are forcefully shut down. I recently read an HN post about how kindergarten recess had been canceled in deference to directed instruction. Instead of making kindergarten more "serious" like upper grades we should probably be doing the reverse and making upper grades more fun and creative, with active breaks during the day.

Nonetheless, many skills - from playing piano to solving math problems - seem to be learned through focused practice.

Students who feel railroaded by lock-step learning should take heart (to some extent) knowing that it eventually gets much better, since creativity and self-direction are extremely valuable in higher education and in the "real" world. But it is a shame that it takes so long to get to that point of freedom.
I would argue what has changed is structural, not technological.

As our age continues to gild itself to further extremes everyday, I just don’t think there’s space to use small groups of optimistic hackers to bring bright new things to humanity through risk-prone startups. There’s too much on the line, too much accumulated power and inertia. LLM-powered cognitive systems are not going to be an iPhone moment that changes some social practices and brings some daily utility, but rather.. idk, a railroad moment, I guess. A fundamental interruption to our society and economy. A new era, for better or for worse. I really don’t think the Silicon Valley playbook will see much effective use in this new context.

I applaud him for looking for a way to keep that dream alive in changing times! Hopefully he updates the rest of his when he finds some answers ;)

Here's some anecdotal evidence - a friend worked at CrowdStrike and was horrified at how incredibly disorganised the whole place was. They said it was completely unsurprising to them that the outage occurred. More surprising to them was that it hadn't happened more often given what a clusterfrock the place was.
Do you have a drive rotation schedule?

24 drives. Same model. Likely the same batch. Similar wear. Imagine most of them failing at the same time, and the rest failing as you're rebuilding it due to the increased load, because they're already almost at the same point.

Reliable storage is tricky.

I'd be concerned with getting traction if my art is online and anyone can feasibly copy my style.

Maybe that's unimportant and no different than being able to make physical copies, though good forgeries haven't always been so easily done and the forgery is meant to be an identical copy of the original work. It could just be me, but the idea of an attempted identical copy of a well known work feels different than a new creation being passed off as the work of a well known artist. For example, you can claim to have a really god copy of the Mona Lisa but that wouldn't be as valuable as claiming you have a previously unknown, unique work from the artist.
Sooooo if you use a SQL database and a Haskell access library, you kind of get this.

Like esqueleto for instance. With it, you basically use Haskell as a meta-programming language for SQL. It's really nice when it works.

But yeah..makes me think that a more first-class thing would be even better.

Tbh, maybe Haskell compiled to a lower-level query language would be better. A language that is about tables and btrees etc. Where there's no planner because the low-level language is the plan.

I disagree. Centralizing power absolutely has the potential for providing more safety. Its up to those with the power to decide whether to provide it, and to whom they provide it.

I whole heartedly agree with your underlying argument that granting power to the state is never worth the trade off though.
