FWIW, I actually find CRLF handy in a database export I work in --- it exports cells with multiple lines by using LF for the linebreaks --- I open it in a text editor, replace all LFs w/ \\ (so as to get a single line for each data record and to cause the linebreaks to happen in LaTeX), and it's ready for further processing.

First, please, be respectful. You are not my brother, nor my friend.

Second, why are you blathering so much non sense. I have been taking the Paris metro daily for the past decade, commuting on the B, then the 6 first, then the 8 as I moved. I regularly go around including on some of the allegedly poor lines and cross Gare du Nord quite often. Stabbings never happen. An attack would be a newspaper worthy thing. People don’t take shit in the metro. What kind of non sense is that. And pickpockets are limited to the touristy parts because well there is not much to pickpocket in the other parts.

At first, I thought you were some kind of Russian chill spreading misinformation but then it finally hit me that you are probably using your car all the time and trying to justify your prejudice.
Past month I setup ssh accounts to access a remote server using Laravel. The guys doing the programming absolutely hate the console, but it turns out VS Code can work through ssh connections just fine. Not sure if it can also debug, but editing was seamless. I wonder if it uses sftp or escape codes.
To counter the other commenter’s harshness (I can be harsh myself): keep at it. I wish I had started as early as you. Eagerly take advice from proven competent people and experiment with wild abandon and don’t fear mistakes.
Let's take Laxen and Perry's F83 implementation as an example.

F83 implements an assembler, a memory hex dumper, an interpreter, a sort of bytecode compiler, a decompiler, a single-stepping source-level debugger, a screen editor (which could jump to the definition of any function and jump back and forth between source and documentation, and which tagged each screen of source code with the last edit date and author's initials), cooperative multitasking with thread-local data, a print spooler, and virtual memory. It can also compile programs into standalone executables, and in fact it's written in itself, so it can cross-compile itself for other architectures and operating systems; it supported CP/M-86, MS-DOS, and CP/M for the 68000.

The Forth programming language it implements is low-level but relatively powerful; among other things, it includes structured control flow, Turing-complete compile-time macros, closures, pointers, and multiple return values.

This is nothing unusual for a Lisp system, of course. What is different is that F83 is only about 2100 lines of code by my count. That's what makes it "more moldable" than a Lisp system with the same features, which would require around an order of magnitude more code.

There are some major compromises made in pursuit of this level of minimality, though: no type-safety (not even to the extent of calling functions with the right number of arguments), no built-in structs (though you can build them with its macro system and closures), no bounds-checking on arrays, error-prone manual access to the virtual-memory system, no syntax, no stack-allocated named variables, etc.

Amazingly enough, the drugs do address the root of the problem. Snacking / junk food is less appealing on them.

I feel like LeCun does the same interview and the same presentation over and over. He’s obsessed with the cat analogy and the notion that JEPA will succeed transformer based ‘traditional’ LLM architecture. Maybe that is true but I feel like he has too absolute a view on these topics. Sometimes I feel like I am listening to a politician or marketer rather than someone making forward progress in the field.
I can't tell if this is a good thing. It seems like maybe a good thing that you can shut off plants that historically couldn't be shut off. But it seems like a bad thing since it means these plants will likely stay in service longer. Is there a tipping point in the foreseeable future where these plants are unprofitable regardless of whether they run only part time?
That is a question of whether they're allowed to hire people, not whether they can afford to.
To my knowledge, you're right, but in reverse order. I believe the driving force is time, rather than mass overhead, but certainly both play a large part.

> we need to be realistic about these numbers

We need to be realistic about timelines. Specifically, the timelines promulgated by Musk versus SpaceX. (Not an easy task, I know, in part because the latter is more sparing with such predictions.) But we should also be clear eyed about emerging capabilities.

Barring a major engineering challenge in in-orbit propellant transfer, Starship's fundamental design looks solid. V1 probably won't get a million people to Mars. But V1 Falcon couldn't be re-used twenty-odd times. The author is correct: national space agencies are copy pasting legacy missions onto paradigm-changing platforms.

The closest exception is NASA: Artemis is overly complicated for a single Moon landing, but its use of Starship on the Moon and for in-orbit re-fuelling is a bet-the-house play that could open a real space economy in propellant alone. (First, storage and shuttling. Later, manufacture.) To the degree Artemis might get canned, it's because Lockheed can't manufacture an Apollo-era heat shield [1], Bechtel can't build a non-catching tower [2] and NASA refuses to be mean to them.

Many contracted projects are contracted on a longer timescale, often weeks or months, compared to ridesharing where the outputs are expected within minutes. Contractors in other fields can often choose when to work on a day-to-day basis, but their next project will only materialize if the demand is there.

Even with reshoring, it's not as though China would just shrug and give up Tibet, and a military confrontation with them over Tibet would be profoundly unpopular in any reasonably foreseeable political landscape. There is no underlying racial animus to drive focus on the issue, as there is with conflicts in the Middle East. For most Americans Tibet is a place they've never been, know precious little about, and while they may feel badly when the situation is explained, it isn't going to weigh heavily on them. It would be hard to explain why that's something to be prioritized over the MENA region, Russia and Ukraine, or places like Mali, Niger, and Sudan.
Incidentally, SQL's recursive queries completely solve the cycle problem by essentially keeping track of the results as a database, which then allows it to prune search results that have already been seen. That's what you get when using UNION in a recursive query, but don't use UNION ALL, as that turns off that pruning effect. This is elegant, but not online.

That's the problem with breadth-first search though: how to make it online?

Conversely, that's the advantage of DFS: it's online because the only state it needs is a search path, and the search path is O(log N), which is small enough to consider online.

Have you ever felt a gut feeling that something just wasn’t right? My name is Elizabeth, and that’s exactly how I felt one evening while I was scrolling through my emails. I’m a recent graduate from Howard University, where I had discovered my passion for cryptocurrency trading. It started with a modest investment that grew significantly, and I was excited to watch my assets balloon to over $700,000. I had been doing everything right—researching trends, following the market, and sharing tips with my friends. But that evening, my instincts kicked in when I received an email that seemed suspicious, claiming it was from my cryptocurrency wallet provider. Despite my initial hesitation, curiosity got the better of me, and I clicked the link. Before I knew it, I had unwittingly entered my login details on a phishing site. Panic set in as I quickly realized I had fallen into a trap. My account was drained within minutes, and I felt a mix of fear and disbelief wash over me. I had worked so hard to build my investment, and now it was all slipping away. In my desperation, I reached out to my roommate, who had faced similar issues in the past. He recommended Blockchain cyber retrieve, a service I had never heard of before but was willing to try in hopes of salvaging my situation. From the moment I contacted them, I felt reassured. Their team was not only professional but genuinely empathetic, understanding the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. Blockchain cyber retrieve quickly got to work, securing my remaining accounts and meticulously tracing the fraudulent transactions. They collaborated with cybersecurity experts to track down the hackers and prevent further loss. Throughout the process, they kept me informed and educated me on how to recognize potential scams, emphasizing the importance of using strong, unique passwords and enabling two-factor authentication. The recovery took time and patience, but thanks to Blockchain cyber retrieve, I managed to recover a significant portion of my assets. More importantly, I learned invaluable lessons about online security and the necessity of staying vigilant in the digital world. If you ever find yourself in a similar predicament, I can’t recommend Blockchain cyber retrieve. Their dedication, expertise, and compassionate approach turned what felt like a hopeless situation into a manageable recovery. I am forever grateful for their help and can now move forward with renewed confidence, knowing how to better protect my investments. Trust your gut instincts; they can save you from. potential disaster.

Then why did you write:

> if they can afford to pay Anduril to hire those people, they can more easily afford to hire the same people themselves.

They can't afford to hire the same people because they can't (as in, they legally cannot) pay the salaries those people are going to demand. That's what I was responding to. The gov't cannot afford to hire the same people themselves, they can hire other people at lower salaries but not the same people.

A flight to Mars is currently going to require 10 tanker flights just to get enough fuel into orbit for 1 Starship trip. Containing liquid fuel for long in orbit will not be easy.

This likely means they are targeting 10 flights in a day at least. They've mentioned 1000 trips to Mars during one transit window, which means ~10000 Earth launches within 3 months, or >100 per day.
We have teleoperated robotic arms for surgery. We do not have practical humanoid robots and have never had practical, productized teleoperated humanoid robots.

I do understand the desire for simplification (let's ignore the argument of whether this is one), but...
> Russia/USSR tried multiple times and didn't succeed.

Pedant mode: the USSR did land softly on Mars, but the lander got caught in a dust storm and was not able to transmit back the data ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mars_3 ).
Nope. Git should not mess with line endings, the remote repository not matching the code in your local clone can bite you when you least expect it. On Windows, one should disable the autocrlf misfeature (git config --global core.autocrlf false) and configure their text editor to default to LF.
The 1996 book "The Millionaire Next Door" covered this a bit.

Fraud means a deception for the purpose of financial gain, so I think as long as they're not selling these while giving the impression that this is autonomous behavior, it's not fraud.

In any case, from the article,

"Another robot — or the human voicing it — told an attendee in a stilted impression of a synthetic voice, “Today, I am assisted by a human,” adding that it’s not fully autonomous."

So it seems in fact they were fairly transparent about what was going on. The article just has a deceptive headline.

And even for trivial questions, there is a lot out there that the doc developers ignored or hid.

For me, the current state of affairs is the difficulty of aiming search engines to the right answer. The answer might be out there, but figuring out HOW t oask the questions, which are the right keywords, etc - basically requires knowing where the answer is. LLMs have potential in rephrasing boththe question and what they might have glanced at here and there - even if obvious in hindsight.
I think that is only part of it. Musk gave an interview where he talked about how the woke medical establishment trans'd one of his kids. They falsely told him to do the transition or his child's death was a near certainty. European countries are now restricting this "treatment" for children. The US has been slow to follow. There is a lot of money and political pressure from the left to keep the medical intervention industry alive.
Minecraft Bedrock Edition is Microsoft's freemium children's game where you buy "mods" and "skins" using minecoins and you can visit a number of pre-approved pay-to-win servers or pay Microsoft to host a "server" for you and like 8 other people as long as you obey the microsoft guidelines and drink enough verification cans.

You might be confusing it with a beloved viral indie PC game called Minecraft (2011) which is no longer for sale.
General inflation, competent techs are retiring/nearing retiring age, and the fact that new units seem to be more complicated internally/harder to work on (i.e. expensive) are probably why.
What problems with TeX is Typst fixing?

I ask because most issues I got using LaTeX tend to be the result of LaTeX additions, very rarely are they issues from TeX itself.

Heck I even took to using TeX macros at some point because while they can be an amazing footgun they're also a lot simpler.

It sort of is. The folks selling specialised design services for optimising the third sigma of weight savings absolutely don't want NASA to use off-the-shelf components.

Induced Demand needs to DIE as a concept. It is a GOOD thing - if you build any infrastructure and people change their behavior because of it, that means your city wasn't meeting the needs of the people. The whole point of a city is all the things people can do in them - if you just want to stay you get out of the city: you can find cheap houses in Montana with nothing around that will meet your needs just was well. The rest of us live in/near a city because as romantic as the cabin sounds, we overall prefer all the options a city gives us.

Note that I didn't specify you should get ahead of induced demand, only that you should. Trains are much cheaper in the long run for most cities but it requires a large investment to make them useful.
I get what you’re saying but I shared it because the motives are the same. Why does Tibetan language matter at all? This BDRC article about digital representation of the language is tied back to that motivation. And the language is under threat due to Sinicization (the program of brainwashing Tibet so it looks like the rest of China). In other words, this discussions around a digital effort is tied to a greater effort to preserve Tibet (land, people, culture).
> I will gladly eat crow but none of these capabilities that exist on paper have actually been demonstrated that are necessary to meet these goals.

Literally every expert said that about landing the first stage of Falcon 9.

Then they said it about reusing it more than 10 times.

Then they said it about having good internet from a mega constellation of LEO stas.

Then they said it about using stainless steel for starship.

Then they said it about having a full-flow staged combustion cycle engine

Then they said it about catching the booster with chopsticks.

Now they're saying it about...

Yes, Elon is wildly optimistic about timelines. I have to laugh at his quote "At SpaceX we make the impossible merely late".

You can't deny SpaceX are absolutely doing what everyone said was impossible, and they're continuing to push forward. You'd have to be nuts to bet against them.

UPDATE: It was only a couple of months ago the CEO of United Launch Alliance called out SpaceX for showing what he claimed was a "partially assembled engine" [1].

It was a fully-functional engine that test fired [2]

Even the CEO of their biggest competitor, and ostensibly the second best rocket company on earth can not fathom what SpaceX are doing.

> What's the most interesting program you've written in comp/lisp?

None. I wrote comp/lisp because my lack of Lisp knowledge seemed to me like a liability as I invest more and more time in Forth. I had nothing I felt like writing in Lisp, so I thought it would be fun to implement one.

While I can't call myself a Lisp programmer, I think I can say now I have an idea of what it's about. It didn't grow on me, so I leave it aside for now. Maybe I'll come back to it later.

> I infer that you are just using dynamic scoping, thus ruling out both upward funargs and tail-call elimination?

Tail-call elimination is possible with my implementation within the same function, but it's not "natural". I'm not sure of what it would take to have it like we see them in other lisps, or if it's possible at all. It's been a while since I swam in that pond, details aren't fresh in my mind.

As for scoping, I'm unfamiliar with the theory. I don't think it's what we call "lexical scoping" because variable names have very little meaning in the compilation process. It's eliminated very early and only "compile time Parameter Stack offset" is kept in the AST.

I don't know what you mean by "upward funargs", but if it's to access arguments from outer scope, yes it's possible. That's exactly the point of the last link you pointed to: lambda generation. A call to a closure generates a lambda which has its outer scope "injected" to PS.
Async Chunk Preloading on Load
I know this is a troll comment, but the situations you see these variables are in highly-polymorphic( generic ) code in which there are no more descriptive names.

It’s like the use of `T` as a name in most Java or C++ generics.
