Musk himself has stated he's regularly using ketamine [1], and it's obvious just how hard he spiralled down in personality over the last years. I don't care much if it's ketamine, megalomania, too many children, not enough sleep, falling down conspiracy rabbit holes, barely medicated ADHD or whatever that's causing this, he's clearly not fit for the position. Dude should have went on a sabbatical after the fuck-up that forced him to buy Twitter, instead he went full steam ahead.

Considering that Russia has been on sanctions lists for over two years now, and Kadyrow since 2017 [2], there is a question how that car ended up in Kadyrow's hands despite the sanctions - and to what degree Tesla is involved or can be held liable otherwise.

There's a difference between readily available vehicles and ones that are still rare in supply.

A fun fact is that this is specifically the question the academic framework of critical race theory was formed to address. How can systems that are not explicitly racist, that may actually have racial equity as explicit goals, still create racially disparate outcomes. It's an interesting area of study! No wonder people hate it.

It seems a little silly to pretend there’s a scaling “law” without plotting any points or doing a projection. Without the mathiness, we could instead say that new models keep getting better and we don’t know how long that trend will continue.
These are exactly the challenges and toil I ran into over time with my self-hosted/homelab setup. I use regular domains now as well with DNS challenges for Let's Encrypt. I've been experimenting lately with CloudFlare Tunnel + Zero Trust Access as well for exposing only the endpoints I need from an application for local development like webhooks, with the rest of the site locked behind Access.

I hope specialized interfaces for AI never happen. I want AI to use human interfaces, because I want to be empowered to use the same interfaces as AI in the future. A future where only AI can do things because it uses an incomprehensible special interface and the human interface is broken or non-existent is a dystopia.

I also want humanoid robots instead of specialized non-humanoid robots for the same reason.
I'll concede that DNSSEC is not in a good spot these days, but I don't know if that's really due to its design or lack of adoption (it's in similar territory as IPv6 TBH). DoH is (IMO) a poor workaround instead of "fixing" DNSSEC, but it's unfortunately the best way to get secure resolution today.

Putting aside the DNSSEC issues, IMO, DNS should be authoritative for everything. It's perfectly decentralized, and by purchasing a domain you prove ownership of it and shouldn't then need to work within more centralized services like Lets Encrypt/ACME to get a certificate (which seems to becoming more and more required for a web presence). A domain name and a routable IP should be all you need to host services/prove to users that domain.com is yours, and it's something I think we've lost sight of.

Yes, DANE can create security issues, your webmail example is a perfectly valid one. In those situations, you either accept the risk or use a different domain. Not allowing the behavior because of footguns never ends well with technology, and if you're smart enough to use .internal you should understand the risks of doing so.

Basically, we should let adults be adults on the internet and stop creating more centralization in the name of security, IMO.
> People like R would be lost in the sea of averages because their genius would be kept shut by norms.

I have a family member who scored perfectly in math on the final exam of middle school but failed other subjects so badly that he couldn't advance to high school. What frustrated us even more was that the next year, he achieved a perfect score in math again but still failed overall, leaving him no choice but to drop out of school.

This story has stuck with me for years, highlighting how our education system focuses solely on maintaining an overall average score above a certain threshold without considering how individual subjects are mastered.

I can’t help but think that if he had been allowed to pursue mathematics, he might have accomplished something great. It’s really disheartening.

> it's hard to imagine a space solar solution ever being competitive given that you need to build a constellation of the things, launch them into space

Someone has to do that, once. Yes, that company will need to sell their offering to many different clients over a long time to recoup those costs. One single mining site is not covering the cost of the initial space deployment, obviously.

> The idea that the company will be doing revenue service in 2 years is complete hogwash. This reeks of investor scam.

Well I certainly agree with that. I'm not defending this particular company.

> How in the world is the EIS going to be any easier for "we intend to hit one spot on Earth with intense microwave radiation for years on end"?

Compared with "we're going to do a billion small explosions of fossil fuels and emit the combustion byproducts into the air for years on end?" All you've done is write a scary-sounding description. Plenty of things that sound scary end up being safe in the end. It doesn't take much imagination to see a possibility that this technology could easily be the best option for delivering power to a highly protected area. Literally any technology sounds ridiculous if you describe it like that.

I really think there are quite a few reforms and new ideas that could help Unixes. Also it's not only about introducing features/new ways, but also the right culture and instruction around the new ways.

For example, the Android(/iOS?) permission based model at kernel level where apps (that could be processes in general?) can only access some private storage (which presumably has its own isolated tmp/ directory) really should be default, and permissions should be opt-in (of course, there should be a 'legacy permission' that makes things work as before).

(I believe most of permission functionality is technically possible through SELinux (??), or you could use containers, but is not easy to use or default)

I think containers arose partially to provide some of this isolation? But they have their own overhead and redundancy issues.

---

It seems some of this work is being done in SELinux project? Is it going to be enough? (and easy enough to use by default?)

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/SELinux

I think a simple permission model might have been more elegant than the SELinux model ?

I guess they don't know about how people scam Amazon reviews by getting legit people to simply buy the product and leave a five star review and then get reimbursed for their purchase later by the company or the company the company hired to get these people to do this.

Inside the Underground Market for Fake Amazon Reviews

https://www.wired.com/story/fake-amazon-reviews-underground-...
Something similar to this happens on eBay. Sellers will sell a product say a usb adapter, cheap and fully functional, users leave reviews and then the seller changes the listing to be a completely different item, retaining all the previous ratings and sale counts. How would this apply here is a good question.

Wouldn't like to assume but regulatory bodies usually think about these things in advance no ?

> One of my biggest learnings from doing a bunch of web MVC through Rails over the years is that the framework should heavily discourage business logic in the model layer.

I am curious where this comes from, because my thinking is the absolutely opposite. As much business logic as possible should belong in the model. Services should almost all be specific more complex pieces of code that are triggered from the model. Skinny controller, Fat Model, is the logic of code organization that I find makes code the easiest to debug, organize, and discover. Heavy service use end up with a lot of spaghetti code in my experience.

The other part is that from a pure OOP pov, the model is the base object of what defines the entity. Your "User" should know everything about itself, and should communicate with other entities via messages.

> Don't allow "callbacks" (what AR calls them) ie hooks like afterCreate in the data model. I know you don't have these yet in your ORM, but in case those are on the roadmap, my opinion is that they should not be.

This I agree with. Callbacks cause a lot of weird side effects that makes code really hard to debug.
Of course they know. One thing at a time.
Eh, how often do you get to drop a new zeugma? I'll allow it.

It is indeed a rapidly evolving space and I think choosing LibreChat was a great choice. We only have good words for them!

In our case, we'd like to put our efforts on addressing specific needs of businesses & organizations that aren't always well covered by similar open source projects. Foundational things like granular permissions, advanced auth, usage reports, spend control and content moderation are top priorities in our roadmap. And then, we'd like to invest heavily in data integrations and RAG.

Finally, we'd like to make it extremely easy to self-host by making the deployment and upgrading process a breeze.

Hope this takes us to a place where people find value in our work!

You are comparing two different types of things:

1. Allocation profiler

2. Heap analyzer

Allocation profilers will capture data about what is allocating memory over time. This can be captured in real time without interrupting the process and is usually relatively low-overhead.

Heap analyzers will generally take a heap dump, construct an object graph, do various analyses, and generate an interactive report. This generally requires that you pause a program long enough to create a heap dump, which is often multiple GB or more in size, write it to disk, then do the subsequent analysis and report generation.

I agree that 2) is generally more useful but I assume both types of profilers have their place and purpose.
You're being obtuse. Terms have contexts. It is unsafe in the sense that C++ is unsafe, in that you may cause undefined behavior which can't be entirely checked by the compiler. You're back to what Valgrind/C++ -wall/UBSan provide.

"Unchecked" or "Unconfirmed" would've perhaps been better choices, but Rust considers all other manual memory and reference management unsafe, so the word stuck.
> theorems like ∗22.92: α⊂β→α∪(β−α)

Either I misunderstand the notation or there seems to be something missing there - the right hand side of that implication arrow is not a formula.

I would assume that what is meant is α⊂β→α∪(β−α)=β

Superset of a superset so basically an Überset?
I'm explicitly not buying an EV yet because there are no massive savings on gas where I am for the amount I drive. My current car cost like $12k used, and at the time a comparable electric used car would have been like $23k (and would have had like a 80-100 mile range, which I would have been fine with). But we spend like an average of $400/yr on gas and $75/yr on oil changes and extra maintenance above what an EV needs, so we'd be looking at 10++ years of difference to break. Even assuming free electricity and no higher licensing fees (which combined would be more like $200/yr). So actually more like 20++ years to break even there (which is basically not happening).

If I lived in an area where gas cost $20/gallon instead of $4/gallon, then it would change the math a little - it would be a net of more like $1300/yr, and I might actually spend less on an EV in the long run (7 years to break even, assuming 0 opportunity cost on the $9k).

If I spent $20/gallon on gas and also drove 12k miles / yr instead of 3k miles / yr, then it becomes a much better proposition.
I recently bought a $9 TV antenna that promised a $50 Amazon gift card for a five-star review.

Isn't reasoning a little strong word? I mean finding evidence of any reasoning is the first point and I haven't seen anything that points to that.

> After all, JavaScript in browsers isn’t compiled like other languages. The main thing that reduces loading times is using cache, right?

I think a differentiation between a full framework (like Next.js) and a lib (like a Canvas rendering lib) is helpful here. There's a lot more that goes into modern web graphics rendering than just caching, including optimizations within JS itself, its interactions with Canvas and the DOM, WebGL, WebGPU/WASM for expensive calculations, virtualizations, tiling, transformations/filters, etc.

I'm not a graphics programmer so I can't get into much detail here, but I think of it as the difference between making a game in an existing engine (Godot, Unity, Unreal) vs trying to make your own engine and rendering pipelines. It all compiles down to machine code, but their optimizations can be several orders of magnitude better than what a solo dev can realistically write in their own time.

With Canvas rendering, there's been a lot of techniques that companies have worked on over the years. Take a look at Felt, for example, to see a full web app that makes extensive use of render optimizations. They have a nice writeup about it: https://felt.com/blog/from-svg-to-canvas-part-1-making-felt-.... Figma too, but it's less a direct comparison to your app.
I mean, chatgpt is just wrong. You could've just watched the second link I posted. He says it's to cool the engine. Not sure why you think chatgpt would be good at this, especially when I'm referring to a specific link that you could have just watched?
3.5 is rate limited free, same as 4o (4o's limits are actually more generous). I think the real reason is much simpler - Claude/Anthropic has basically no awareness in the general public compared to Open AI.

The chatGPT site had over 3B visits last month (#11 in Worldwide Traffic). Gemini and Character AI get a few hundred million but Claude doesn't even register in comparison. [0]

Last they reported, OpenAI said they had 200M weekly active users.[1] Anthropic doesn't have anything approaching that.

> It leads to buildings falling down or burning up [with people in them]. This was a common occurrence 100+ years ago. You know what made it less common? Standardization. Building codes. Minimum standards for engineers and the trades.

To me, this is a more interesting comparison. Is it PE certification and contractor licenses that led to this or is it building codes, construction inspectors, occupancy permits? I will argue that it's inspectors, NOT PE or contractors. And I will argue that the buildings codes have major negative consequences also. We all know of constructions methods that would have great benefits but have to be abandonned because they don't easily fit the current code. We all know of buildings that are to-code and yet ridiculously noisy and cheaply built.

I will also argue that there are building code equivalents already in software and system architecture. There are several for "certifying" system or site security and systems that host credit card payments. And we all know how well they work. So I agree with you that there is room for progress there, but I will also argue that the approach NEEDS to be different. The current security or payment checklists are bureaucratic, CYA nonsense which discourage thinking and encourage bureaucracy and CYA specifically in place of actual security. The only thinking they encourage is creative writing to twist reality into the proper buzzwords.

There may be a way to specify practices and security but we sure have not discovered it yet. So, a research question rather than already a standardization question? I will point out also that there WERE directions that did work in the past. For example, Dan Farmer and Wietse Venema's SATAN (and the several descendants since then) was bureaucracy-free: the test showed specific rubber-meets-the-road issues with your system that you could either fix or defend. No bullshit about using a firewall(tm) "because that's best practice".

I also don't say that it's bad to publish books. I will say that it is bad to push "best practice". "Best practice" is precisely bureaucracy and CYA in place of thinking. To the point of site owners defending their lapses in the name of "best practices".

What else currently goes in the right direction? Pen testing. Bug rewards. Code reviews.
