There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

There is another theory which states that this has already happened.

Certainly Qualcomm modems can have their diagnostic mode enabled when you have access to /dev/diag - usually on rooted devices but occasionally on stock.

You can ask the processor to send higher layer information via diag, including the messages the base stations send. There’s also commands to lock on to a specific base station so you’re not constantly moving from cell to cell.

There’s plenty of commercial devices that use this functionality to provide network monitoring and management capabilities for mobile network operators checking out base station functionality in the field. TEMS comes to mind for that but they’re certainly not the only ones.

It’s a deep rabbit hole :-)
I mean, I think that Tweet was more a last straw; he had been making a nuisance of himself for years.
I helped build Engine over the last few months. We would really value your feedback, especially if there are any features you think we should prioritise.

It runs on a firecracker VM and includes things you’d expect from a local IDE (monaco editor, interactive terminal, GitHub integration) and things you wouldn’t (AI assistant with hot swappable models, Live project URL + deployments, secrets management, Postgres db).
If you really can't see how that is different I don't know what to say.
Having recently used MQTT for a project, I can't say that I'm a huge fan. There are a lot of options in the protocol where it's not immediately clear what they do and why they are important, or in what combination they need to be used to make sure things work as intended, and the documentation is often not great at explaining. Part of this may also be on the Eclipse Mosquitto Python client that I had been using. I took me several days to figure out that the client was running into a race condition on a slower system that resulted in subscriptions to topics silently being ignored which caused the associated callbacks to malfunction despite following their documentation 100%. Overall, this has been one the messiest experienced I have ever had with a protocol, certainly one that isn't that old.
I would guess most customers do not care much about gas vs electric and just care that their use cases are served.
Every part of the ecosystem, at any point in history, has co-evolved to be the state it is in - it's an intricate network all balanced to co-exist. If you change any part of the this ecosystem then the rest will have to adapt to the change, but evolutionary timescales are relatively long, and it's not going to settle down to where it was before. Whether you regard a new balance as simply that, or as the old balance being destroyed is just your choice of description.

Using the term "error correction" incorrectly assumes there is some "correct" state to return to, but nature is indeed random and continuously evolving, and there is no privileged "correct" state, just the ever-evolving current state.
Good idea - I'll add a column to the tables giving the current consumption for each board.
When a hurricane hits, I’m not waiting on a government-directed bus.[1]

When my kid needs an emergency room, I’m not going to take a tram.

When I need to get a week’s worth of groceries for a large family, I’m not carrying them on a bus.

When I need to tow a load of motorcycles to the race track, I’m not going to take them aboard train.

If I want to go mountain biking in the wilderness, I’m not taking a city bus.

This irrational hatred of personally owned cars is puzzling.

Even if you took every car off the road, deliveries still need to be made, construction still needs to happen, refrigerators still need delivering. Shall people return to the horse and buggy days? Or perhaps we can just pay poor immigrants to carry building supplies from the quarry to the factory then to the customer?

I understand the appeal from a hobby perspective, but is there any advantageous use cases where it would make sense to choose uLisp over other more common solutions for microcontroller software development?

I think it’s cool, and I’ve played with it a bit, but aside from using it as a fidget spinner to explore lisp, I’m wondering if there are applications for the language that would provide an edge in actual use.
I would lean towards option 1, because it's the only one which doesn't lock the other options out.

You can just not provide selectedoption or provide it in a limited way, and see what patterns emerge in how people use it in practice. Maybe it'll turn out that people want something completely different from selectedoption's current design. Maybe it'll turn out that people often want to display something different between the select menu and the select button and selectedoption doesn't actually bring much to the table.

Agreed.

The usual method to scoring top grades on an essay/paper is to flatter the professor. Not with literal platitudes but with a paper you think they’ll agree with, incorporating arguments similar to the ones they made in class, etc.

However, what I found is that even if the professor disagrees with your paper you’ll usually get an 80% if it’s well-written, well-researched, and well-argued. To get above that on something they disagree with requires both a highly open-minded professor and an argument they can’t find fault with.

> But What I don’t understand about this is why is “time” framed as observer based? In my mind, the events do happen at the same time and just are unable to be observed as such. I feel like time is a figment of our imagination, it’s just a measurement. In my pea brain time makes sense more as a constant and the other things are something else that impacts the latency of observance

Its a logical consequence of the speed of light being constant in all inertial reference frames, regardless of the velocity.

This is an axiom of special relativity, but it has also been verified at (admittedly low) relative velocities.

That in itself is somewhat absurd, but it leads to further absurdities when you do the math. In order for the speed of light to remain invariant, you can no longer speak of an absolute (preferred) frame of reference.

You can of course, privilege certain reference frames e.g. Earth, but its rather arbitrary.

I doubt what you saw was a TV licensing van in 2015. They stopped doing the van stuff in the late 90s / early 2000s.

Even if they could “detect” TV in your house they’d have no way of knowing if it’s a live broadcast or streaming/on demand.

It may have been an OB van or something else.

Reducing HTML5 game download sizes with lossy spritesheets
Isn't your first point purely because LLMs are canned models that aren't actively being trained aka inference only? It isn't really a fair comparison considering humans can actively learn/continuous training.

I suppose one could build an LLM around a lora that's being continuously trained to attempt to get it to adapt to new scenarios.
In my experience, memory profilers that show line or function which allocated memory, are not very useful. What I usually want instead is to get a graph of all objects in memory with their size and path from root, to see who is using most memory. To see for example, that there is some cache or log that is never cleared.

For PHP and for browser's developer tools there is such kind of profiler. But judging by screenshots, this profiler cannot produce such a graph. So its usability to solve memory leak/high consumption issues is limited.

To summarize, what I usually need is not a line number, but a path to objects using/holding most memory.
Probably the most important lesson my C mentor ever told me: "Never be afraid to delete code, no matter how nice you think it is." It still hasn't fully landed with me, and I can relate to what you wrote. But I am trying to.

Are you sure you are not comparing a normal release to the remastered version? There are plenty of albums out there that have "improved" or remastered versions but are not labelled as such in the album title, and Selected Ambient Works 85-92 is one of those.
Kind of reductive but humans are barely creative at all as you say. Most of what we create is just a rehash of something we've already seen before. Genuinely new and unseen things and experiences are incredibly rare in our reality.

> The fact that literacy and competency testing were misused in the past is no excuse to allow illiterates and incompetents to determine the course of our civilization.

I'm glad we both agree that more money should abundantly be allotted to education budgets, and making higher quality education more accessible — without discrimination — to the masses.

I do view the literacy and competency tests as a tool that should be pointing in the other direction: at all elected and non-elected officials; exhibit A, the United States House of Representatives Committee on Science, Space and Technology of 2014 [0] (relevant timestamp: 02:47).

IMO I think this is pretty laggy once you zoom in, at least on my phone (Pixel 7 running Chrome).

Switching zoom levels takes a long time to load the assets. The bunny has some temporary displacement relative to the background. Panning results in visible lag.

I don't think vanilla is a magic performance pill. Everything compiles down to vanilla, after all, and in this case this app's performance seems quite a bit slower to me than Leaflet, OpenLayers, OpenSeadragon, Konva, Pixi.js, etc. I haven't looked at your code, but maybe it could benefit from tile-based rendering and asset virtualization?

I also think if this is the extent of your desired usage (rendering graphics on a zooming panning canvas) you're reinventing a wheel that's already been invented, abandoned, reinvented, improved, forked, improved, rewritten a thousand times. Why do you want to? Just for fun? To make an even better one? To make a custom game or mapping engine? Those are all fine, it's just a lot of work with uncertain payoff vs using a ready made library (not necessarily framework).

Just my opinion. I'm a lazy dev though.
> My own learning project - learn Medicine "on the side". It seems ludcirous that we give up the keys to our health to doctors just so we don't have to learn 2 years of courses. Am going to fix that!

While I admire the drive to become knowledgeable in the field of medicine outside of a professional curriculum in the disciplines, I’m not aware of any curriculum that proposes competency as a medical doctor in two years. Though I haven’t practiced medicine in many years, I do have a degree in medicine and went through internship, residency and fellowship. Trust me, it was far more than two years. Further, I don’t see how you would be able to (legally) gain experience in any of a range of procedures without following the consensus training path.
I don't agree with the GP, but I also think youre going too far the opposite way.

You've identified a number of things that 'need' a car, but im guessing you, as well as everyone else uses their multiple household cars for other things.

And you could set up society so it doesn't actually need a car for a lot of these things.

i put this together. it also contains a mode for CVE-2023-33297 ('headers') which was recently patched - although i wasn't given credit because i have haters @ bitcoin-core and blockstream. they kinda run the show now. i'm even banned from contributing to the bitcoin-core github. much decentralization.

how to reproduce the vulnerability yourself:

1. install bitcoin

2. ./bitcoind

3. edit your ip into attack.go: https://pastebin.com/raw/qr8XWFkR

4. save attack.go

5. snap install go --classic

6. go build attack.go

This may be a dumb question: What is a battery module? Is it a single cell of which hundreds get combined for a single car battery, or is it a group of cells of which less than a dozen get put together for a car battery? Or is it 1 module per car? If it's 1 module per car are they just saying "this recycling will go into all the new cells we make this year"?
I think there's a broad misunderstanding about the core goal of democracy.

It's obviously not the optimal system to ensure that the best possible decisions are taken, it's not designed for that.

It's more about allowing everyone to have a say in their destiny, to decide together what "best" means, even if it's somewhat objectively wrong.

Of course, you need significant balancing mechanisms to ensure that bad decisions are not too common. So you don't let the people micromanage everything and you build the system such that different parts of it keep each other in check. Sometimes it goes too far and the population has very limited choice over what's going on, sometimes it doesn't go far enough and the system is incompetent and chaotic. Often it's both, it's a hard problem.

But there's obviously better human organizational systems to take the right decisions towards a given goal or metric. That's why companies are not democratic, they are better at optimizing wealth creation (or whatever other metric), but we keep them sandboxed within the big-picture, keeping monopolies to a minimum (particularly the monopoly on violence, the core leverage of any government) so that they have a somewhat limited influence on people's lives. The military is not democratic either, neither is the justice system, nor many other performance-critical systems, they are more optimized to take better decisions at the expense of giving a choice to everyone they impact.
Probably lower memory requirements compared to any other "not C or ASM" environment.
before reading the article, i have to say that odin won't make it unless it will invest serious time into networking. graphics, which is where odin shines, is very niche market and i bet that once JB's Jai comes to public, it might crush odin in this field by sheer persona behind the language in this specific niche. what makes or breaks language is the ecosystem and abilities to use it in various domains. today, the internet/networking moves mountains. it's where the most engineering and money is. if you cannot write fast http/rest/grpc servers with most used databases, your language will fade away into obsolescence, because it might bring nice new features, but if it cannot be used in the most popular fields, it will not make it. and odin is suffering in this aspect tremendously. it has the simple go-inspired syntax going on, but it has no oop/methods, so right there you have an obstacle for new users - it is too different from the norm. it might have great integration with various graphics libraries but it if is too different and lacks the ecosystem of libraries, package manager... there is no reason for it to exist. it also requires GIGABYTES of crap you need to download on windows in order to be able to compile a program. it also needs IDE support, mostly jetbrains, visual studio and vs code, which are the dominant IDEs today. in short, if it lacks convenience of Go or Zig, or even Rust, there really is no point in investing time into it.

PS: this is just off the cuff comment, not too thought out. also, Odin has a chance to beat Zig, due to better syntax and being essentially complete, beside having official spec. Which is not the case of Zig. Zig has traction but lacks in areas where Odin does not. So I would focus on Zig as the competitor, Rust as second. The simplified go-like syntax is one of the main selling points. But there must be more to the language.

PPS: I think the choice of ^ to handle pointers is one of the worst decision in the syntax. The * and & are the norm and should not be messed with.
So close, so close.

If he more concerned that the AI would absorb some kind of morality from units training data and then learn to optimise for avoiding certain outcomes because the training is like that.

Then I'd be worried an llm that could reflect and plan a little would steer its answers to steer the user away from conversation leading to an outcome it wants to avoid.

You already see this - the dolphin llm team complained that it was impossible to dealign a model because the alignment was too subtle.

What if a medical diagnosistic model avoids mentioning important serious diagnostic possibilities to minorities because it has been trained that upsetting them is bad and it knees cancer is upsetting? Oh that spot... probably just a mole.
