> One could say the same about search, browsers, image/video/text sharing, smartphones and yet, moats were built.

Most of these built moats through widespread adoption by being first or best.

And in almost every case adoption requires an investment by a consumer, who is unlikely to switch because there's a cost incurred. Switching phones, browsers, social media platforms come with real costs that we don't see with LLM vendors, where you can switch one with another with twenty minutes of work.
Ollama can’t talk to OpenAI / Anthropic / etc. LLM gives you a single interface that can talk to both hosted and local models.

It also logs everything you do to a SQLite database, which is great for further analysis.

I use LLM and Ollama together quite a bit, because Ollama are really good at getting new models working and their server keeps those models in memory between requests.
I feel like a significantly more context-aware autocomplete could go a long way here, most SQL editors are approaching 72% garbage.

It should be possible to make an educated guess at which tables are in play.

Elsewhere I mentioned always fully qualifying entity references which would narrow the list of possibilities down to a more workable number in most cases.

It's not rocket science.

He figures out what people want to hear, tells them that, then does whatever he thinks is best regardless of what he said.

When put that way, it does sound a bit sociopathic though...

Walking through a fair in Austin, TX I came upon a pop-up selling timeshares and next to it another pop-up saying "how to get out of a timeshare". Honestly, I didn't know what these things were but they sound like a bad idea from the fact that the second pop-up existed.

OTOH I'm surprised they pulled this scam. A friend of a friend lost his vacation home in Mexico to the cartel and there wasn't this much fanfare around it.
Wow! A random datasheet[0] says:

"Max.allowable continuous operating temp: 175 C", and shows a current capacity plot from 55C to 175C. That's 350 F, definitely enough to grill burger.

Also, I was curious about power loss - for that one cable I found, it's 0.25816 Ω/km @ 660 amp, which comes out to 181 kilowatt of loss (150 average US homes) per mile of the line (and probably double that for second wire). That's a lot of loss!

I use my https://github.com/simonw/ttok command for that - you can pipe stuff into it for a token count.

Unfortunately it only uses the OpenAI tokenizers at the moment (via tiktoken), so counts for other models may be inaccurate. I find they tend to be close enough though.

Just append a random constant at the end of every SELECT column list instead, 42 to the rescue! (I kid, I kid.)

I can't tell yet whether my experiment starting an all-OR WHERE clause with 0=1 so each OR could start the next line would go over like a lead balloon here too or not.

One thing I've actually found useful especially in SQL is always including a single-line comment in front of the closing of every multi-line comment, so that using a single-line comment to toggle off the opening of the multi-line comment toggles the entire block back into action and the end is already set (the closing comment is itself already commented out). This obviously doesn't work if multi-line comments start nesting, but that can confuse parsers enough already.

Trying to get an entire team on the same page with SQL formatting is one of the mothers of all bikesheds. In any case it's useful to be aware of the idioms whether or not they are personally palatable.

Apple delayed their effort 'indefinitely' to work on cheaper Vision Pro. They are at least 3-5 years behind Meta at this point. And if past is any sign of the future, Zuck is not slowing down this effort anytime soon for Apple to catch up.

>I would love to have a set of AR glasses.

I've been wanting this for a long time now, but really just for cycling. It would be incredibly handy to have some AR glasses connected to Google Maps, showing a moving map in my field of view as I'm biking through the city and telling me where to turn. Even if it's really nothing more than a separate screen (sort of like Android Auto) for my phone, that's all I need for this. If I need to interact with the UI, I can pull over and get out my phone; I just want the glasses so I can see the moving map (along with changes when I take a different turn than prescribed).
People have a finite amount of time and effort they can spend on making the code correct. When the language is full of traps, spec gotchas, antiquated misfeatures, gratuitous platform differences, fragmented build systems, then a lot of effort is wasted just on managing all of that nonsense that is actively working against writing robust code, and it takes away from the effort to make a quality product beyond just the language-wrangling.

You can't rely on people being perfect all the time. We've been trying that for 50 years, and only got an endless circle of CVEs and calls to find better programmers next time.

The difference is how the language reacts to the mistakes that will happen. It could react with "oops, you've made a mistake! Here, fix this", and let the programmer apply a fix and move on, shipping code without the bug. Or the language could silently amplify smallest mistakes in the least interesting code into corruption that causes catastrophic security failures.

When concatenating strings and adding numbers securely is a thing that exists, and a thing that requires top-skilled programmers, you're just wasting people's talent on dumb things.

Okay, it is: "The article lists points that exactly put into question the guilty verdict in this case" vs "are supported by the arguments made by the prosecution in all instances of the appellate court"

Do you find the points raised in the article not compelling? Perhaps you could specifically address at least the point raised that the witness testimony was biased?

Still waiting for the specific lies.

The value in at least pointing out the lies is so that your claim of lies can begin to be supported - that we can see at least what you claim to be a lie. The article seems to be relatively expository. Not only would something have to be false, it would have to be knowingly so. Calling someone a liar, IMO is very significant. It should be therefore supported.

> Do you think that activists should just be able to gish-gallop everyone by forcing them to repeatedly argue the exact same points?

My opinion there is kinda immaterial. If we did go down that road, I'd have to ask you to precisely define most of those terms. Which seems like a tedious exercise, and again my 2 cents on that question seems immaterial. If you are perhaps implying I am an activist, I would not consider myself as such. I do try to practice skepticism. I also sincerely and greatly value _truth_.

So, perhaps we can start with what you claim is a lie?

I think their hypothesis is that it's not the "what" (interacting with content) that prevents phone users from interacting with the world, but the "how" (head tilted down, eyes focused on a small rectangle, peripheral vision almost completely unused).

With an AR experience (in their hypothesis), the overlay nature of the content being displays does not prevent you from interacting with the real world.

Example - you are at an event and a little popup window appears above the head of the person you are walking toward, using a multi-modal AI assistant to remind you of their name and the context of how you met. This feels different from trying to subtly pull out your phone and figure out how to use some combination of linkedin, email search, etc., to figure out who they are.

Alternatively, how many times have we seen phone users trip on the sidewalk or walk into something because they are so engrossed in what's on the screen?

I am very happy when I see The Innocence Project taking on a case like this because it tells me they have already worked through the backlog of actually innocent people as well as the people who might possibly be innocent, and now have worked there way to the cases which are 1% flawed but in which the correct perpetrator has nevertheless been identified, tried by a jury of his peers, convicted, appealed, etc.

Gleam lang has no if—only case (aka match) expressions. Its sincerely delightful. Its more capable than ifs by bringing multi conditions into a single expression, allows for closures to funnel into assignments instead of forcing a mutation in the parent scope.

As a point of comparison, the Llama 3.2 3B model is 6.5GB. The entirety of English wikipedia text is 19GB (as compressed with an algorithm from 1996, newer compression formats might do better).

Its not a perfect comparison and Llama does a lot more than English, but I would say 6.5GB of data can certainly contain a lot of knowledge.
No doubt you know this, but Common Lisp's standardization gave leeway to implementations. So you could choose which implementation suits you better. Common Lisp is an umbrella for different Lisps to have some commonality. It was a process of negotiation, during a time when there were many design forks in the road, and diverse use-cases

For example, type declarations can enable performance optimizations, compiletime type checking, runtime type checking, IDE autocompletion, etc. Or they can be ignored, if compiler simplicity is more valued. All these things have engineering tradeoffs. For example, runtime checks may have runtime costs at odds with performance optimization

There might be higher-value improvements to Common Lisp, if higher quality code is desired

Behavioral science is too hard to get right. The effect sizes mostly don't seem to be big and it's too hard to run a trial, so to keep a career going scientists are forced to aim for some sexy outcome which isn't there from an underpowered experiment. But almost nothing really matters in that field. It's as good as plastic recycling.

Still, we are forced to study it because there are interventions that have worked in the past: cigarette smoking, teen pregnancies, etc.

And it's useful to know what made those so successful. But maybe the answer is luck.

> its trivial to write memory safe C++

It is not unfortunately. That's why we see memory safety being responsible for 70% of severe vulns across many C and C++ projects.

Some of the reasons include:
- C++ does little to prevent out-of-bounds vulns
- Preventing use-after-free with smart pointers requires heavy use of shared pointers, which often incurs a performance cost that is unacceptable in the environment C++ is used.
