>they must have a preference for treating like things alike

Suppose I recognize a type of thing, "dollars". I spend some of my dollars to buy food. Given this "preference for treating like things alike", does that mean I now have to spend all my dollars to buy food?

>As a conscious person develops, they understand other people to be like themselves and therefore ought to have a preference for treating others like themselves.

I imagine an egoist/solipsist could respond by saying "well, I put myself in a special category, a category with just one object in it".

In my view, the is/ought boundary is fairly inescapable here.

Imagine a hypothetical intelligent species that's predatory, 100% carnivorous, and solitary. Like a coyote, but with the reasoning and philosophy ability of a human. It lacks mirror neurons, and it kills daily or weekly for its very survival.

Can you think of an argument that would actually work to persuade a coyote philosopher that it should adopt a vegan diet? I can't.

IMO, human compassion is downstream of us being a social species. Once you have compassion for at least one fellow human, you can at least argue that restricting that compassion to just a subset of humans, or just a single species, seems rather arbitrary.

But bootstrapping compassion from an egoist perspective, and convincing a sentient coyote philosopher to go vegan, seems a bit harder. I imagine from the coyote philosopher's perspective, "suffering is bad when it happens to you, and you're not special, therefore suffering is also bad when it happens to other beings" would seem like a rather trippy and counter-intuitive argument.

An interesting question on the boundary between is and ought: "Are shrimp capable of suffering?" (See HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42172705 ) People generally treat it as a factual question that can be resolved through ordinary scientific discourse, but it's also a key values question -- if shrimp can suffer, that ought to change our values re: the importance of humane treatment. And there's a chance we'll never know the 'fact of the matter' regarding whether shrimp can suffer. I'm not sure an experiment can, in principle, provide a definitive answer.

Same line of argument goes for advanced AI models. If AI passes the Turing test, can one argue that it's morally irrelevant merely because it runs on silicon substrate? Seems dubious. (If I gradually replace the neurons in your brain with transistors, do you gradually become morally irrelevant?)

So if we're going to regard advanced AI as non-sentient, what's the key differentiator supposed to be? Is there actually any way to definitively answer this question, even in principle?

If you're looking for a pre-built double entry accounting Postgresql schema that provides database-level integrity checks:

Imagine you go to a foreign country. You want to buy a train ticket. You walk to the station and go to the ticket machine. You see a dizzying array of levers, buttons, sliders, and dials. Each labelled with diagrams which don't make sense to you.

It's even worse, if they have an estate worth anything.

The family can turn into animals, fighting over it, and care homes have developed an entire industry, based on taking money away from old people (and their children).
That´s not correct unfortunately, although it has been widely taught in economics text books, and you can blame Keynes for that. Keynes used that example to try and explain the process to parliament, and also to argue that the system didn't expand the deposit money supply over time. Ironically even the data (in the Macmillan report) he supplied contradicted him. It´s confusing as well, because the fundamental rules have changed over time.

Banks can lend up to an allowed multiple of their cash or equivalent reserves (gold standard regulation), and in the Basel era are also regulated on the ratio of their capital reserves to their loans. This acts to stop hyperflationary expansion, but there is a feedback loop between new deposits and new capital so the system does still expand slowly over time. This may be beneficial.

In engineering terms, Banks statistically multiplex asset cash with liability deposits, using the asset cash to solve FLP consensus issues that arise when deposits are transferred between banks. It´s actually quite an elegant system.
Huh? 500km is easy. If you start out with 100% charge and 400km of range, you only need to add 100km more, which is about 10 minutes.

Similarly I have fond memories of the last.fm era, discovering new music via people with similar tastes who I might often end up chatting to. Wasn't it also around this time that Pandora (using the Music Genome project) was also more readily available, seem to remember that was also a good way to discover new music.

But then I'm old enough, pre internet, to also remember the days when people used to send each other mixtapes or you'd go round someone's house with a small selection of vinyl you'd play to each other.

And then there was the more recent (pre lockdown) era of going to see live bands and discovering new bands via the bands that were supporting or via conversations with other people at those gigs, who if you saw them enough times became your mates etc.

Nowadays I can spin up a program to generate a playlist of everyone playing the Great Escape or Glastonbury (assuming they haven't boycotted spotify) and listen to all of them before I even get there and because of the number of acts, given slightly different tastes, unless I make an effort I might not even see my mates....

The fact a usage is common doesn't mean it is profitable or that it needs to be supported for a hosting service to be profitable.

> net power grid imports are less than 5% (17% imports vs. 12.5% exports in 24H1)

depending on when those happen. If they import French electricity whenever the wind is taking a break from blowing, that prevents craptons of pollution (including, but far from exclusively, CO2) from the massive German coal plant I live near to. If it's more random, say if it's just helping with some peaks when everyone's making bratwurst and coal currently doesn't cut it, then it's not reducing them from running

There are also times where we hear electricity prices are negative or near zero for a time, afaik usually caused by too much wind-based production. Exporting that may balance the thing out so that the net value is near zero

I'm sure it'll be some mix of those and other scenarios, but I'm not sure that looking at the net result says very much about whether nuclear electricity exports helped reduce emissions in surrounding countries like Germany. I'm more inclined to say the claim of the person you're responding to is likely correct (though I'd say "helpful to be" part of the mix, rather than "needs to be")

I just deleted my Airbnb account.

They don't own the issues and always ask you to solve the problems by talking directly with the host or prove issues in impossible ways.

Example: In my last booking the heating was broken for the whole hotel, despite I sent them a picture showing the small heater they gave me next to the huge faulty heater, Airbnb asked me to measure the temperature with a thermometer. Since I didn't have one they only offered me $10 compensation.

> Its still homoiconic

> they can still, and in the case of the linked project, probably are turned into the exact same data structure.

What you are saying means it is not homoiconic any longer. If you print out the parsed representation of lisp code, you get back the same lisp code. If you print out the parsed representation of this whitespace code, you get back the lisp code (data) also. But this is different to what you fed into the parser.

The point of homoiconicity is that the data structure representing the code is the code itself. There's no syntax, it just represents itself. It's super simple. A programming language with syntax cannot be homoiconic. This is complexity.

> I get your objection insofar as whats the point?

"Easy" IS an argument to choose something over something else, but "simple" is a better, stronger argument. Parens syntax is simple. Whitespace syntax is easy, iff you come from/is familiar with a python-style background.

We are debating some obscure thing. The point is the argument :) I hope you have a great day.

I’ve casually used Scala at work and home over the past 5 years. I mostly think this is because of the community and also the tooling and libraries.

WRT the community the functional zealots have pushed out everyone that doesn’t align to their ideology. Everyone that just wanted a better Java has moved on to Kotlin or back to modern Java.

WRT the tooling: scalac and sbt are so slow it’s painful and even IntelliJ can’t figure out what’s going on in Scala sometimes.

WRT libraries: every single time I have to upgrade play or the scala version there is a breaking change that either forces me to refactor or is undocumented and screws me at runtime.

So mostly at least for me, I’ve been burned by the language too many times to start a new project in it, especially at work where it will be long lived and I’ll eventually have to upgrade things.

Billingsgate? Not so much.

The brief history of the area:

- Isle of Dogs, London, was the main docks area, which shutdown through the 1960s and 1970s due to standard sized containers and automation.

- 1982 Billingsgate moves to Isle of Dogs. There's nothing else there. Docks are closed. Land is cheap, and the site is easily accessible from the East for sellers, and from the West for buyers (London restaurants etc.).

- Creation of the London Docklands Development Corporation (LDDC) in 1981 and the granting of Urban Enterprise Zone status to the Isle of Dogs in 1982, starts the conversion of the old docks into the new business zone

- From the 90s onwards CSFB, BarCap, MS, Citi, HSBC all move to Canary Wharf

- Property and land prices are now vastly higher.

- 2022ish, Crossrail opens. Land prices and property prices increase even more.

Corporation of London has long realised it's sitting on a gold mine: the land north of the North Dock is Billingsgate

It's just Photoshop addicts needing the UI to be identical to Photoshop because when they use GIMP their muscle memory is broken.

To be fair, though, all industry professionals are forced to be Photoshop addicts. But Photoshop's UI is objectively awful; it's the 10,000 hours you spent in it that makes it seem sane. You could have learned Thai in 10,000 hours, too.

The real weaknesses in GIMP have been in its lack of some necessary functionality, especially some that is necessary for print. The great thing about being GPL is that when the stuff is eventually added, you own it forever.
