My god.. A sensible take?
Most likely an IO limitation of the MediaTek MT7981B SoC used—it looks like it only has one lane of PCIe Gen 2, a USB 3.0 port, and one built-in 1 Gbps Ethernet controller (among a few other common low-speed interfaces)[1]. Typically these chips have bandwidth constraints, and it seems this one is meant for small routers, not the typical multi-2.5G or 10G setups some homelabbers would prefer.

> From my point of view, AlphaGo, AlphaZero, AlphaFold were significant achievements.

These things you mentioned had obvious benchmarks that were easily surpassed by the appropriate "AI". The evidence that they were better wasn't just significant, it was obvious.

This leaves the fact that with what appears to be maximal cooking of the books, the only thing AlphaChip seems to be able to beat is human, manual placement and not anything algorithmic--even from many, many generations ago.

Trying to pass that off as a significant "advance" in a "scientific publication" borders on scientific fraud and should definitely be called out.

The problem here is that I am certain that this is wired to the career trajectories of "Very Important People(tm)" and the fact that it essentially failed miserably is simply not politically allowed.

If they want to lie, they can do that in press releases. If they want published in something reputable, they should have to be able to provide proper evidence for replication.

And, if they can't do that, well, that's an answer itself, no?
The problem here isn't really that one mis-issued certificate, but rather the general problematic behavior of that CA reported in TFA.

If a CA can be convinced to issue a server certificate for google.com, would you feel very comfortable trusting their contract/deed/... signing certificates?

Having logic, presentation and styling all in one spot addressable via js and jsx feels so much more ergonomic for apps of reasonable complexity.

I will say though that solidjs seems like an improvement on react though.
Well that's a thorny question, now isn't it? I mean, if it was so clear what 'epistemologies' exist in any field, then there would be little need or interest in the study of philosophy and history of science, no? If it was clear, then I think one would simply state what the epistemology of the field is.

That philosophy and history of science are so successful seems to suggest that the way of the scientist is both multifarious and difficult to pin down. I'm skeptical about using either the conscious report of the practitioner of psychology or the labels we may ascribe to their behaviors to triangulate on what their epistemology could be.
You prove my point.
There is an M.2 slot, though only PCIe 2.0 x1. Possibly still good enough for reasonable bandwidth.

Red Delicious are the canonical example of a product that was optimized for looks (and storage) over flavor and texture.

It implies an adequate design, adapting (retrofit) an existing nuclear plant to such co-generation is very difficult.
Getting your CA into a trust store means that every machine using that trust store will accept your certs. It’s not really necessary for a government or corporation to have a public CA in anyone’s trust store unless they want to issue certificates that everyone trusts. If they just need their own machines to trust their certificates, they can use the management utilities that come with Windows and with AD to distribute an “enterprise root”, which only their machines will trust. This is how most large companies and governments do it.
It is a balancing act: If you follow procedure, you'll be too slow to make an impact. If you don't follow procedure, you'll throw innocent Pablo in jail, but your actions will make impact.

Politicians are specifically elected for this. Otherwise, you just put bureaucrats; because what difference would it make?
So deeply ethically puzzled about the situation in Salvador that I'm linking it to the trolley problem.

Salvador could stay being one of the countries with the highest murder and rape, and kinda respecting human rights by following the presumption of innocence VS could put 2% of the population in jail to raise the quality of life for the remaining 98%?

I even heard someone say that Bukele proposed that any country that want Salvador to respect human rights for those arrested could just take the prisoners as refugees. (No source on that).

Which bring me back to the trolley problem, would you want your own country to take those ~75.000 people as refugee and consider them all as innocent?
If it saved power wouldn’t that lead to less thermal throttling and thus improved performance? That power had to matter in the first place or it wouldn’t have been worth it in the first place.
Just guessing, but Wikipedia has three David Mayers:

A historian, most well known for being confused with a terrorist who used David Mayer as an alias and placed on a US watchlist: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Mayer_(historian)

A US politician, the mayor of Gloucester Township, NJ: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_R._Mayer

A rich guy, David Mayer de Rothschild: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Mayer_de_Rothschild

So, ChatGPT could be trying to prevent giving terrorists publicity, could have some prohibition against discussing political figures, or (probably most likely IMO) could have prohibitions against members of the Rothschild family being discussed to prevent it from spreading conspiracy theories.
But that's not allowed for publicly trusted roots under any circumstances, right? Not sure if that would qualify as an accident.
The secret isn't that El Salvador is breaking human rights law, the secret is that El Salvador is an amazing place to visit and it won't break the bank. I can say first hand that Mexico and Ecuador have become sketchy; you can't feel completely safe anywhere IMO in those countries.

Author here! Firstly, thank you for the kind words.

And secondly, this is quickly becoming apparent. I'm trying to run sales in Australia, my whole network is here, etc, but most of our good leads are at American companies. I know some smart Australians, but there's less appetite for quality work here, because that would require changing things and that's too much risk for people who just want to tap out and retire.

I'm putting all my work and in-person sales time into Australia, and we're still walking away with American clients despite the timezone differences and other obstacles. In Australia, the line has thus far been "I know we should do better, but no one will ever approve spend when they just want to wait out the clock for a new job". This is probably common in the U.S too (it's common everywhere), but the line with American clients has more typically been "We need this done to a really high standard because we think it's competitive advantage - can you start tomorrow?"
> Linus absolutely does jump in on VFS level bugs when necessary (and major respect for that; he doesn't rest on laurels and he's always got his priorities in the right place) - but there's only so much he can keep track of, and the complexity of a modern filesystem tends to dwarf other subsystems.

The point is he doesn't have to understand details of the code to see bug reports and code churn and bug fix commits and have a reasonable idea of whether it's stable enough for end users. I would trust him to make that call more than a "filesystem guy", in fact.

> The people at the top explicitly don't and can't keep track of everything, there's a lot of stuff (e.g. testing) that they leave to other people - and I do fault them for that a bit; we badly need to get a bit more organized on test infrastructure.

Absolutely not on the top nodes. Testing has to be distributed and pushed down to end nodes where development happens or even below otherwise it does not scale.

> And I wouldn't say that filesystem people in general wear rose colored glasses;

Perhaps that's what you see through your rose colored glasses? (sorry, just a cheeky dig).

> I would categorize Dave Chinner and Ted T'so more in the hard nosed realistic category, and myself as well. I'd say it's just the btrfs folks who've had that fault in the past, and I think Josef has had more than enough experience at this point to learn that lesson.

Dave Chinner for example would insist the file-of-zeroes problem of XFS is really not a problem. Not because he was flat wrong or consciously being biased for XFS I'm sure, but because according to the filesystem design and the system call interface and the big customers they talked to at SGI, it was operating completely as per specification.

I'm not singling out filesystem developers or any one person or even software development specifically. All complex projects need advocates and input from outside stakeholders (users, other software, etc) for this exact reason, is that those deep in the guts of it usually don't understand all perspectives.
I wonder about other factors, like safety requirements, fuel price, fuel taxation, license requirements and population percentage/wealth owning a car.

I also remember when cellphones first became available in other countries.

Because landlines were so screwed up in other countries, and adding cellphone infrastructure was simple and competitive, uptake of cellphones was much more abrupt. The US got terrible cellphones at a slower rate.

Pretty much anyone who works with FPV drones, either as a hobby or professionally, does the same, except for the weaponized part. Early in the war, I remember they used to use regular off the shelf drones to drop the payload, then later started using FPV drones in a kamikaze way for the speed factor. FPV drones are basically assembled like LEGO with some soldering skills, and even training is done through simulations.

That being said, many robotics engineers around the world have an unwritten oath to never weaponize their creations for offensive purposes. I know many engineers who would be happy to customize a UGV (unmanned ground vehicle) to diffuse a bomb remotely for example, but they would refuse if the robots were to be used to kill a human being, regardless of their political views. Otherwise, we would be living in a dystopian hell very quickly because these robots would be tele-operated to oppress people even outside of wartime or war zones.
You mean Wim Hof?
When Juan Manuel Santos negotiated a peace treaty with the FARC, he won a Nobel. When Bukele makes El Salvador the safest country in the Americas, there are 'explosive accusations' of bribery.

Is it not functionally similar? Santos was defense minister during the Colombian False Positives scandals which was arguably much more evil than anything Bukele has done [0].

Can't make heads or tails of this, honestly.

As a Venezuelan, I am especially wary of authoritarians and you do not have to convince me about the slippery slope of judicial abuses of power.

Those of us with DSL connections must suffer either an extremely limited selection of DSL modem/routers that can run Linux/OpenWRT, or have to suffer running a Linux/OpenWRT router behind a DSL modem (that often has proprietary and out of date firmware).

Do you have evidence that basic human rights and due process is unusually expensive and not feasible for developing countries ?

Because that doesn't seem to be the case given we've seen much of the world become developed over the last 50 years. And almost all have a functioning judicial system.
Author here! You might like David Whyte's writing on "genius". It's sad when you want to be the best of the best in a specific thing, but almost anyone can blend their natural aptitudes in a few distinct fields to the be "best of the best" in something unique.

I'm an okay programmer, and the general opinion from clinical mentors here is that I'd be an above-average psychologist if I wanted to get into it, but I'd be one of the only professional software/professional psychologists in the country if I multiclassed.

For finding resources, I'm souring on some Hackernews material as I become more skilled and cure some Gel-Mann Amnesia, but generally speaking it's still a great place to look for book recommendations.

Another great tip is to check Goodreads lists from people you admire, or to find recommendations that include other material you find good. For example, I like Taleb's Black Swan. I found Keith Johnstone's Impro from a Reddit comment that that included Black Swan in the list, and repeat that trick ad infinitum.
* Latin America has a sad history of using what's been called "enforced disappearance" [0]. It's sickening that it seems to be happening again in El Salvador in 2024.

* There's no justification for ethnic or ideologic cleansings of any type, period. No, making tourists happy is not a good reason for state terrorism (nothing is).

* Bukele is untrustworthy. See "liquid ideology" on [1], just for a start.

> how do you know what books to read?

I'm teaching myself linear algebra after failing the official class. I bought Strang's book and to me it was like reading the rantings of a madman (edit: ofc I mean "to me", as he is an accomplished mathematician), nothing made sense and it seemed all over the place. Which is strange because he seems always so highly recommended in that field. Its a visual subject for gods sake make some use of pictures! -- Anyway, not giving up I bought another one, this time from Lay and Macdonald and its like I'm reading a different subject. It makes logical sense and uses pictures to illustrate geometric points effectively without going overboard. So yeah, I cannot agree more. Sometimes its the right book you need, not just any book.

edit: In summary, we need good bullshit detectors to avoid being drowning sleepwalkers ;)

Yeah, this is probably a sad truth. Something weird is that, as a consultant now, no one asks me to jump through hoops. They just talk to me, I provide sensible guidance and insight, then we get paid to work.

I have absolutely no idea why companies roughly know how to hire private consultants at a bajillion dollars a day, then basically bully people with Leetcode or lame panel interviews, but they do.
The switch I'm using is behind a panel in my garage, which is not climate controlled. Temperatures range from freezing to over 100F throughout the year. It's a fanless POE+ switch and it's doing a great job otherwise. I've replaced the switch with a different model a few times over the past five years, but this one has held up well for over three years. I'm open to suggestions for a reliable (managed or unmanaged) fanless POE+ switch that can handle this environment. Ideally, I'd like one than can do 10Gbps. The present switch is 1Gbps. Money is a secondary consideration.

> "Ie won’t hurt much to have a PED open to the train wall or opens double the size of the current trains’ door."

I imagine there would be safety issues with that approach since it might create an opportunity for people to get trapped between the platform doors and the train. No sense solving one safety issue just to introduce another one. You'd also need to be sure the platform doors didn't take any longer than the train doors to open. Anything that increases boarding & alighting time, even by a second or two, would likely be rejected in London.
I believe Bukele has claimed that the state is working to get trials for everyone, it's just taking a long time.

I totally believe that El Salvador lacks the necessary state capacity to try so many people rapidly.

My idea: To release innocent people faster, let friends/family members/etc. post a bond. Prisoners are tried in order from highest to lowest bond value. The bond is returned to the family if the prisoner is found innocent. If they're found guilty, the bond goes to the Salvadorean healthcare system or something like that.
Not even.

But if you think I do, well, that can't be helped I guess.
Pavlov's Half Marathon: Training Myself to Run More with Classical Conditioning
You wrote "bottlenecks", I showed that we deploy more and more. The reader can decide.

You first criticize me for merely providing data, then for my "analysis". Go figure.
Your points (substitution effect and methane) are pertinent, but my answer wasn't about this but about the fact that there is no sign of abatement of renewables' growth.

> We can't build them substantially faster

One more: nothing, especially historical data, sustains this.

We burn less and less fossil fuel thanks to renewables, which more and more replace it, and there is no clear indicator of this trend to change. This is too slow, granted, however there is no magic wand and demanding an immediate perfect solution is playing upon the nirvana fallacy ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nirvana_fallacy ).

> We're building gas instead of nuclear

... because since the 2000's:

- industrial renewables appeared and are (very quickly) more and more adequate. I other words to replace fossil fuels nuclear isn't the only contender anymore. Thanks to renewables: no risk of any major accident propagating very dangerous long-term stuff difficult to recover, no hot waste, no dependency towards any provider of fuel (such as uranium), no weapons proliferation risk, quick and easy deployment, no decommission-related nightmare (see the ongoing case in the U.K.)... No wonder renewables are booming.

- all nuclear-building projects are more-or-less resounding failures

I tried for years to do similar when I lived in Australia. Though with a PCI/PCI-E card

ZyXEL if I remember correctly did make an ADSL2+ at the time PCI-E card. Literally just a DSL modem wired to a Realtek 8139 NIC. You could slap it in a Linux (or BSD, or Windows) PC and just use PPPoE to connect to the internet

Naturally it was impossible to order the damn thing and I never got to realize my dream of an "all-in-one" DSL Linux router.

After moving to DOCSIS (Cable) internet I ran into the same confusing problem. "Thankfully" with Fiber everything is just ethernet (more or less) now. But it was an infuriating time in the 2010's
One useful heuristic is to look at a newspaper's reporting in a domain you are deeply familiar with. If it misses the mark by a lot there, you could still take your chances with their remaining reporting under the assumption that that was an outlier and the rest will be much better – but I personally wouldn't.
