So many great parts in this.

1) The sense and importance of community. Both the mention of them coming together when he returned where "the ghosts will be laid". And also the mention of "there was no “I” in his war, only “we”. We're stuck in such an individualist culture where we're told to work hard to stand out, and seem to be shamed if we're weak and in receiving help from others.

2) Words as metaphors. Beautiful examples given in the post, but we should remember the roots of many of our words are also metaphors. My favorite being "persona"[0], coming referring to an actors mask that air goes through. Helps remind me that we're always actors in the world, not some defined Self we're stuck with. Good book[1] on that topic from Jay Garfield.

3) Explanation at the end of his "Navajo Code-Talkers uniform". Mentions that yes, it's more than ok to imagine clothes as images and have meaning beyond "something to wear for efficiency". The Emerald podcast talks about these things, both ornaments in general from human history [2] and more specifically about guardians [3] which is what he considered the Navajo colors were for, to protect him.

The similarity of all these cases, to me, comes to they're not all thoughts he had in his head as words, which is what we're told to do from the smallest of ages. We're told to think hard, and use words (like I'm doing here) to be smarter than others. When looked at, words and thoughts are nothing compared to the experienced feelings that come from community, imaginal metaphors like hopping rabbits that leave tracks in the snow, or looking at colors you're wearing and feeling protected.

You cannot be serious. It is very well established by science that biological races do not exist. They remain in the mostly American conversation as sociocultural constructs.

Maybe you at least read Wikipedia to educate yourself?
I wasn't trying to compare Sweden to Canada, just refute the argument it's impossible to integrate large numbers of Muslim immigrants into a Western population.

But since you brought it up, 14% of 1 million immigrants into a country with a 40M population is somewhat comparable to 80% of 100,000 immigrants to a 10M population country. And it's not 80%, the majority of Swedish immigrants are repatriating Swedes.

Maybe Sweden needs to start eating more Shawarma. It's super popular here in my part of Canada. Helps employ Arabs and acclimatizes Canadians to them.

Lots of people defend these licenses on exactly those grounds. I, too, find it pretty mystifying that this seems to be a minority perspective here. At least this seems to be the case among the people who speak up when this comes up here. It's hard to know if there is a less noisy majority who feels differently about it.

A good deal of confusion in topics like this comes from assuming that not having vocabulary to describe differences means that people weren't aware of the differences. That's silly. Have you ever tried to pick a paint for your house and had to choose between a hundred variations of the basic color you wanted? Even without specialist color vocabulary, you could perceive the differences.

Anthropologists have found tribal societies whose number vocabulary included only One, Two, Three, and Many. Do you think they couldn't tell the difference between having 5 or 10 cows? There have also been some languages with very few color words. In fact, there is known a rule that if a language has only three color words, they will be White, Black, and Red.
This rebuttal is fine, i guess, but to answer your final question: At least 1645 deaths if your government is british. I forget the US numbers, but globally you can kill upwards of 30,000 people with unproven and empirically fatal technology.
I built a personal finance app (https://tender.run) in the style of mailbox (swiping, keyboard shortcut, inbox-based workflow for reviewing transactions).

It's built on the automerge CRDT and sqlite running in the browser, which has been really fun to work with. I'd like to keep going, though honestly I've struggled with the marketing side (growth has been slow) and it's a pretty competitive space.
I'll make one comment here and you can take it whatever way you like.

What evidence do you have for anything you've said? Real evidence, surprisingly lots of people believe in fake evidence all the time.
AI models rarely have that kind of predictive power because they are noticing patterns not running simulations.

The model may care about trees because mountains above a specific height don’t have trees on them. The old, measures stop being useful once you start optimizing for them, AI edition.
He is right if you look at cars, vs vehicles, but that's due to sales moving to larger vehicles that don't count as cars. But when it comes to self driving or electrification, the difference between car and truck isn't significant. Therefore, vehicles sales being up is what matters.
Anyone that makes $21,000 a year is making too much to get Medicaid. This not-so-wealthy person's insurance is almost free, but they are required to pay for all medical expenses up to their out of pocket maximum, which is typically around $15,000. Also bear in mind that Medicaid has opportunities to place a lien if there's any hope of recouping the medical expenses.

I think there's still room for improvement.
Yeah 10 years ago it was a bit much. It was pretty much just lane keeping and distance keeping, but it didn't read signs or lights yet. So if you're coming up on a signal it would just keep going!
Maybe the meant sales per capita? The US population at the end of that data was 1.5 times what it was at the beginning, but the sales haven't gone up anywhere near 1.5 times.

> It's interesting that the idea that 'banks should refuse to do business with potential terrorists' is something that most people I know support, or don't care about.

I tell them about the "terrorists" truckers who went on strike in Canada and who got debanked for going on strike.

> (I almost got debanked once -- I had my account re-instated after many weeks of extreme stress ...

You tell me. I had to fill nearly a PDF with nearly 50 pages justifying where and how I bought groceries and how I put tank in my car because they somehow thought I may not be living in the country I said I was living in.

Same things: weeks of insane stress but, eventually, they said things were OK.

You're not a weirdo. People don't realize we live in a Brave New World, complete with secret ESG score (assigned by banks to customers), etc.

Many simply have blind love for the state and they'll never question any rule made by the state.

So they'll state: "But banks are only following the law!". Which is precisely the problem: such laws shouldn't exist.

I live in a country where it's all about banking finance and most don't realize they don't produce anything at all. It's all about KYC/AML/compliance/SARs/fiscal lawyers/etc. A big, gigantic, void.

While you see SpaceX going from their Raptor 1 design to their Raptor 3 design, using the "idiot index", where things become more efficient and way cheaper, bureaucracy (and their banking following dogs) works the other way: everything becomes less efficient and more costly.
It's possible to run an experiment to see if a conscious entity could be convinced that a simulated reality was real. Hard to do ethically since consent would invalidate the illusion, but possible to demonstrate convincing virtual reality with computer generated sensory experiences.

Models like the holographic principle can be tested both mathematically and through experiment. Full tests are beyond our current capabilities but not unfalsifiable in theory.
Are you looking to validate a market idea? If so, are you thinking of more of a consumer use case? You mentioned Cursor, so it sound like you're maybe thinking more enterprise, but embedded ads are basically not a thing in the enterprise.

> same complaints and conflicts have been happening all along in broadly comparable ways

You're really doubling down on this line of reasoning, even though once was already too much. I'll be even more blunt: it sucks. It's shoddy reasoning.

Tammi says that she's the kind of person that others usually end up taking advantage of, especially at work. But she's wrong. They don't.

Sammi says that she's the kind of person that others usually end up taking advantage of, especially at work. She's right. They actually do.

Do you see how no matter how many Tammis there are, it doesn't negate whatever is true about Sammi?

If you do, and you actually grasp the principle that "you have to actually go look at the specific examples before trying to draw broad conclusions from that", then what possible reason would there be, when Sammi appears or someone tries to discuss her case, to respond by bringing up how often Tammi has made the same complaint? It changes nothing, and it's a shitty thing to make Sammi deal with if she's already having a below-baseline-level experience.

> please assume good faith

Side quest: What does that phrase actually mean to you?

I've literally only ever seen it used pre-emptively as an explicit or implicit accusation—violating the very guideline that the person invoking WP:AGF is trying to claim the other person is guilty of. The only reasonable conclusion is that they either don't know or don't care what it actually means, because it's accepted as the universal response when you want to bundle something up with WP:CIVIL, since it's free to allege WP:AGF violations and there are no consequences for accusing someone spuriously.
Nothing reliable that I know of. To have any hope at all of being able to do that with Android you'd need a rooted device. Without root access "your" phone isn't something you can reasonably hope to secure since Google, your phone carrier, and the manufacture all have privileged access to your device while you don't. Even with a rooted device I'd only use an app that you trust. The default samsung keyboard that phone came with out of the box was downright adversarial so at least I got rid of that, but I don't think of cell phones as something I can really secure or trust in a meaningful way.

Microsoft holds last Patch Tuesday of the year with 72 gifts for admins
> Should there be a similar standard license for open source infrastructure?

Yes, I think there should be. The tech world is basically a monopoly at this point, and that's dangerous for a thousand reasons. The least those monopoly owners can do is financially contribute if they want to use these tools.

It's sad to me that the tech world is rallying around Valkey, which is Big Tech's fork: AWS et al are the ones behind it. We continue to give more and more power to the biggest players.
The operators own the hardware and lease it to customers for computation. Those customers do not trust the operators to not peek at their Super Sensitive Data. TEE is a way for the operator to provide assurances to their customers that they will not, and more importantly cannot, exfiltrate customer data.

This is in theory. In practice, as demonstrated by the article, these assurances are not bulletproof.
None of that stuff is going to happen. Just look at the recent election results: Americans don't want any of that stuff.
I always assumed the obvious application was for Google to make a QaaS (Quantum as a Service) for factoring large primes. One obvious big customer would be intellegence agencies, especially the NSA.
Well to be fair, the rest of the billboards in SF off the 80/101 are generally bland and corporate AF. Gee, another HR/payment processing platform. Wow, a new iPhone!

Even 40+ years ago algebra was not introduced until 8th grade (13-14 years old), and only the kids who passed a qualifying exam got that option—the rest took it in 9th grade.

Come experience it between my house and walmart before you go telling people they need to experience it. Good luck having good weather during your drive, here in louisiana.

Self driving probably works great on Interstates with numbers like 5, 10, and the feeders. Based on my experiences with subaru self driving and watching videos and watching tesla drivers around here, a self driving car would give up after maybe 3 minutes. There were more teslas and other expensive "self-driving" style cars a couple years ago, but now i rarely see them. I wonder why?

I can consistently get my wife's subaru self driving to swerve into another lane without warning, without jerking the wheel, with very minor control inputs. Subaru keeps updating the firmware, but they haven't fixed the suicide merge!
I have self-respect and have no problem contributing to projects with a CLA and copyright assignment. I recognize that I don't control what happens with my contributions, as I have consciously agreed to their terms. Controlling what happens in the future of a project simply has never had anything to do with my motivations for contributing to a project.
Every country has immigrants though, you can't just selectively remove them in one country and not the others, that is not an apples to apples comparison.

> Those layers have different representation space.

Do they? Interpretability techniques like the Logit Lens [1] wouldn't work if this were the case. That author found that at least for GPT-2, the network almost immediately transforms its hidden state into a "logitable" form: you can unproject the hidden state of any layer to see how that layer incrementally refines the next token prediction.

It's also nice that with no-script and uBlock origin that it only takes a couple clicks to whitelist something and even then you only need to do it once and it can remember it for the next time. You can also use add-ons like LocalCDN so that a lot of commonly used JS can be used without a remote connection.
Your first paragraph is 10, 20 years out of date. And you conflate the prestige & economic power of the US with its education quality. As your example exemplifies, those coming here for school are coming for economic reasons (an increasingly less compelling draw, by the way), not because they think the education here is special.
> Many general purpose languages support type checking, but few support constraints and validation of data. We must write our own validation logic which often means validation happens haphazardly, if at all.

Python with z3 and some AST magic can support constraint validation.

In fact, type checking can be seen as a form of that. I have a fork of typpete, a z3 based type checker from 3 years ago that should still work.

I mean, you can point any random bad thing at COVID I guess. But as far as car accidents, LED headlights are more than twice as bright as they were 10 years ago. Certainly not helping things... https://old.reddit.com/r/fuckyourheadlights
Why would "COVID" only impact the US? It's a global pandemic? If anything the comment would be exclusively about education policies. Because the education policies around COVID would be worse. But also just looking around at my own region of the US, there's a lot of talk about how to lower the school budgets where I live. Which would be lowering on top of inflation's effects Seems like a pretty easy correlation in my head.

Aside: Your 2 comments are sounding alarm bells in my head, and I can't pinpoint why. Especially when the numbers seem to demonstrate the exact opposite of what you're describing in your first comment (scores amongst white students seem to shift downward).
These days an opt out solution is illegal in the EU and probably more jurisdictions will follow. So enabling by default is normal.

What also would be legal is to offer the user a choice at the first startup.
Was there a secure enclave that determined people didn't find bugs in? I remember the modding community around old Motorola phones before Android was a thing, they obviously had a secure loader, write once memory to prevent downgrades, signed firmwares and all that, yet each and every version was bugged in one way or another. From sofisticated ones to "just keep writing despite the driver signaling error" kind of ones.

Holos is designed to produce configuration for Kubernetes. That configuration can be as small as a 10 line yaml file, but in larger operations it often ends up being multiple millions of lines of yaml spread over multiple clusters across the globe.

Once Holos produces the configuration, we stop. We leave it up to you to decide what to do next with it. For example we pass it to ArgoCD to deploy, others pass it to Flux. In development I pass it directly to kubectl apply.

Here's the thing. Do-Not-Track was an active signal of intent from the user to the backend. Violation therefore, could be proven by merely showing the signal was sent, and the provider ultimately ignored it.

Getting rid of it for being "ignored" is ignoring that it is a means for the User to signal to the rest of us they do not wish to take part in tracking. Which in our world, is the important bit. A provider not being challenged with this bit can argue that the user doesn't mind being tracked because they didn't explicitly say so.
