Are you seeing experienced people cargo-culting or simply beginners to the framework being religious in its application?

I distinguish the two because I find that, when there's no other expert, a beginner is better off being dogmatic than trying to "do the right thing." By definition, a beginner does not have the expertise to make this decision. As you gain experience, you'll start to see where you need to deviate from the established rules.

Think of it like home-cooking to a recipe book vs being a professional chef throwing things in a pot to feel and taste.
"Have a society where people like this can't get a foot-hold in the first place" - How does one build this society? This is not meant as snark.

Building a system that prevents sharks from getting a hold while also not preventing well-meaning people from building seems incredibly hard.
I don't understand how culture is being used here. What does "more culture" mean? A culture is a process and a system of relations I can understand how wikipedia has a culture but not how a shadow library has "more culture than you need". Are we talking about the products of cultural production? To suggest that LLMs are anywhere near human level is laughable.
We really need a more clear definition of what "AI" means.

What the article describes sounds like it could have been built with 10 year old image processing tools and basic algorithms crunching the large amount of sensor data used to identify potential wells.

What makes this tool AI rather than an algorithm? Or machine learning?
I’m not sure this is compatible with their oversight goals. Government agencies also have to comply with public records laws and be able to detect insider threats, and switching to E2EE conflicts with that.

It particularly interesting that high cost treatments seem to have motivated United to hire a college campus administrator as a secret budget specialist since the cost of a lifetime of treatment seemed high for younger people.
Assuming that Bitcoin is still 100k per coin in 100 years time, a ludicrous suggestion considering its history, we'd have roughly 0.0125 degrees warming, its generating around 98 megatons of CO2 emissions at the moment.

I also like the example where if you break someone’s window and they fix it for $300, that’s at least an extra $300 in GDP.
My experience as a expat in London is that new things aren’t really being built in Europe today, and that fact is greenwashed over to keep the people here from recognizing how miserable the infrastructure and housing are compared to modern North American counterparts.
> Researchers used the AI algorithm to scour four counties of interest that had substantial early oil production – Los Angeles and Kern counties in California, and Osage and Oklahoma counties in Oklahoma – and found 1,301 potential undocumented orphaned wells. So far, researchers have verified 29 of the UOWs using satellite images and another 15 from surveys in the field;

It would be really helpful if they called out how many potential wells were inspected and couldn't be verified. Are they confirming at 100% or 10%?
TJs is not cheap.
I did present an argument. My argument is that wars were fought to enact Magna Carta(historical fact) and thus if we consider, as you do, that January 6th was a revolution there is no imaginable reason, at least I can't think of one (and you refuse to share yours), to think that there was no revolution that brought about Magna Carta.

Saying "fucking" isn't throwing a tantrum. Nor is pointing out something as an example of historical illiteracy calling somebody names.

Now that we are on the same page can you present your arguments on how what happened on January 6th is a revolution and how Magna Carta was not brought about by a revolution?
It's a real semantic difference, not a pedantic detail: It means that there is a practical reason that the moved-from object could be non-empty.

A few standard library types do guarantee that the moved-from object is empty (e.g., the smart pointer types).

For some others (basically, all containers except string), it is not explicitly stated that this is the case but it is hard to imagine an implementation that doesn't (due to time complexity and iterator invalidation rules). Arguably, this represents a bigger risk than string'e behaviour, but it's still interesting.

I understand that this issue seems to create a strong emotional reaction in you. That does not excuse you from the consequences of those strong emotional reactions.

I feel like you have massively extrapolated the argument from what the original point was. My response was about how "avoiding 4chan" does not shield you from the effects that 4chan has (including harm).
I don't know which groups you belong to (because you don't mention them), but we clearly agree that violent rhetoric is bad, so why are we disagreeing? It seems you have the exact same point of view as me in the general case of hateful rhetoric, but simply feel that some groups are more important (because you belong to them, perhaps? this is the feeling I get).

Also, let's not kid ourselves, violent crime (including murder) and oppression towards women and minorities are well-documented and studied real-life issues. Violence towards men by "virtuous" groups (leftists?) does not even register on the scale when compared to them. The online violent rhetoric towards women is also at several orders of magnitude higher than violent rhetoric towards men. There is a clear disproportionate aspect to this issue that your emotional reaction is not taking into account.
You fire them anyway. The problem isn't incompetence. It's the inability to self reflect and see your own mistakes as mistakes that is missing.
> I’m not entirely sure why it matters that silos of messaging data exist

It doesn't matter until one day, something happens that does make it matter.

Imagine if a centralised model was used and a foreign state managed to sever connections to the internet that was used by that country/central server. It's more resilient to be able to route messages even if the network is under attack. This kind of thinking is behind the original design of the internet although we now seem to have centralised large portions of functionality.
Do people really think like that? I don't. I'd be ill-suited to most office jobs and most blue-collar jobs. I tend to think "you should have better labor laws, workplace safety, safety net, health care, education..."

Not disagreeing with your central points - but average UK salary is now £35k and the average house price is £289k - therefore house prices are currently 8.25 times the average salary.

Regional variations will make this far worse in many popular and coastal towns - but the average is 8.25 times in 2024.

Do you consider a basic algorithm to be artificial intelligence?

You are right though, you van go back further than LLMs and find misuses of the term "artificial intelligence." That doesn't contradict my main point though, that the word has been so redefined as to be pretty meaningless to the understanding of what intelligence is.

If we want to consider even basic algorithms to be intelligence, are we boiling down the entire concept of intelligence to mathematical equations?
Oh I see, thanks for the clarification! Personally, I'm fine without that and with something like

func Foo(r io.Reader) {
var m MyStruct
binary.Read(r, binary.LittleEndian, &m)

}

but we may be operating in different contexts where the underlying copy is or isn't a problem. That said, depending on the implementation of the reader passed in, the bytes might be being streamed from elsewhere, in which case the copying is minimised.

Yes, it's unfortunate and we very well might be headed towards a French Revolution era.

Not that closely related. Much of homelessness is still not a housing price issue, and housing price issues are partially but not completely remediated by a contraction in the economy.

And also... no -- homelessness is one bad problem, but there are other problems. Bad economies cause a myriad, including declining healthcare availability and reductions in life expectancy.

I’d prefer we trained AI politicians by watching Team America World Police and statements made by George Bush and the neocons after 9/11.

Except that there are plenty of countries that don't do this and are secular.

Highly Cited Researchers – 2024 Analysis
> Science has delivered a standard of living to most of the developed world that is greater than that of an Egyptian Pharaoh or a Roman Emperor in numerous ways: health, food, availability of information, ease of travel, physical comfort, etc.

It also created lifestyles which aren't sustainable, destroyed our ecosystem, made gluttony and sloth our main cause of death.

If you look for the signs they're already visible, it's just that our system has a gigantic inertia. Look at things like ocean acidification and other climate feedback loops, massive wildlife extinction, loss of nutrients in veggies/fruit, PFAS in rain water, micro plastics polluting virtually every living organisms.

Humans work on hope, when things are continuously getting better we're thriving, when things start to fall apart ever so slightly it's much less fun, and we're slowly getting to that point. It doesn't matter how high you start, what matters is the general trend
Computer vision is AI, it’s just not an LLM: a computer is performing work like our brains do. Your argument is basically what Bertram Raphael was saying in the 1970s: “AI is a collective name for problems which we do not yet know how to solve properly by computer”.

This is entirely a problem of putting all of eggs in one basket. Or rather, only having one basket in which you’re allowed to put your eggs. The German pension system is already insolvent, and I suspect it’s not the only one. European welfare states are great n’all, but it would seem they were set up when the going was good and populations were growing. Now with stagnation, they don’t look much like staying solvent and populations don’t have anywhere else to turn

> "Unspecified" means that the implementation gets to decide what is the status of the string after move. For long enough strings, typical implementation strategy is to set the moved-from string in an empty state.

Thusly, what happens in code that accesses the string after the move is UB.

In the implementation of C++ the article uses the string was just empty.
But for all we know it may still contain a 1:1 copy of the original or 20 copies or a gobbledygook of bytes.

Any code that relies on the string being something (even empty) may behave different if it isn't. That's the very definition of UB.

"A typical implementation strategy" is meaningless for someone writing code against a language specification.

You're then writing code against a specific compiler/std lib and that's fine. But let's be honest about it.
Our collective reaction to this event makes it clear that there is substantial support for massive changes to the for-profit insurance industry. But every time we've tried to make it a public benefit, those attempts have fallen flat. Sure seems like the industry is able to lobby and market it's way to staying alive, despite the ire of the people paying them.

Decades ago I recall a previous attempt at moving towards a one-payer system, and it having some traction. My mother had some fairly serious health issues, and had many battles with getting insurance claims paid, living month to month in a single mother salary. Yet she also was firmly of the opinion that a one-payer system would be terrible, parroting the marketing of the industry advertising campaigns. Despite having a daughter in law that was Canadian, who's mother went through cancer and had superb care under a single-payer system.
It was not my point.
