I'm looking on Newegg and it looks like the the motherboard/Ampere CPU bundle is $1434 (Asrock Rack Ampere Altra Bundle ALTRAD8UD-1L2T Deep Micro-ATX Server Motherboard Single Socket (LGA 4926) with Ampere Altra Q64-22 64 cores). case and power supply $300. 64GB RAM $65. 1TB M.2 SSD $55. A400 graphics card $180 (not a great card). That comes out to $2034. So yeah, they've got about a $1250 markup.

It looks like they're saying treadmills etc will "balkanize" to build their own protocols. that seems more difficult than something based off bluetooth. i agree that the article gets more vague the longer it got. i guess time will tell.
Yes, there were many - including the original IBM PC which would could boot to BASIC loaded from ROM. Some more sophisticated machines included:

- Many Tandy PC compatibles could boot from ROM to their DeskMate GUI
- HP, GRiD, Zenith and others had laptops that had DOS and in some cases Windows in ROM.

- IBM's PS/1 line could boot from ROM
- Many GEOS devices booted from ROM into a GUI, and often could boot to DOS from ROM too.

The allowed types are a bit misleading. Any binary is accepted, any architecture. You can upload shared objects, ELF executables, PE binaries, etc.

I like to give it bomb executables (reverse engineering challenges) to test it.
> everything you know about SEALs etc are filtered through a massive PR system anyways.

I saw a joke about Navy Seals awhile ago that went something like:

A Navy Seal and a Delta Force operator are chatting in a bar. The Navy Seal immediately starts talking and bragging for hours about all the amazing things he and other Seals have done. The entire time the Delta Force operator smiles and nods.
The scams sometimes involve getting him to buy gift cards and then sending the card number. Not sure your solution would help.
Would many EU citizens want to move to Canada? When I hear people around me it's not very popular. Cold, far from family, too stretched out etc.

I wouldn't think about it even if I could make more money there.
Liberal democrats, who got 12.2%, aren’t a “left wing party.” They were in a coalition with Tories from 2010-2015. The current leader of the party served in the Cameron government.
Major Rust cryptography libraries (see for instance Ring) use assembly, too. It's a pretty normal thing to do.
The best results I’ve seen at procedurally generated “old school” style pixel art sprites have come from highly LORA-ed diffusion models. You can find some on Civit AI.[1]

So the future here may be a 3D mesh based game engine on a system fast enough to do realtime stable-diffusion style conversion of the frame buffer to strictly adhering (for pose and consistency) “AI” pixel art generation.

There’s cultural aspects to it. Europe, Middle East and Asia has a culture where there’s enough people up and about till late. People anre anre outside, often at third places like coffee shops that allow you to spend time without spending a ton. Even if you’re at home, you are not in bed at 9, like majority of Americans. I would assume the clientele at the Yemeni shops comes from a place that has the “stay out till late” culture.
Once AI is able to replace patients, the industry is really going to take off.
> Does ProPublica overestimate the seriousness of the militia movement?

Unclear. Depends on how supportive of it Trump is. He might legitimize it by pardoning the Jan. 6 attackers. Many of them thought they were acting on Trump's orders, after all. There was one platoon-sized Proud Boys unit on Jan. 6th that showed military organization and discipline. The rest were just a mob.

Having a private army of goons can be useful. That's what the SA was in the Nazi era. The SA was a big organization, 20x the size of the German army at peak. Eventually, it was put down once Hitler was firmly in power. See "Night of the Long Knives".[1] Other countries have been through this. Sometimes the goons ended up in charge, or at least as a large faction to be kept happy.

This is often seen after internal unrest that yields a large, restless, armed group. Germany got there by losing WWI, but not being crushed. Haiti is a classic example. Afghanistan seems to have gone down this road - all those former "fighters" have to be fed and kept busy.

The closest the US came was the "Bonus Army" camped out on the Mall after WWI, demanding a bonus for veterans.[2] The Bonus Army had 17,000 veteran soldiers, and some political and police support. Eventually they were forcibly dispersed.

US militias don't match any of those classic situations. They're mostly wannabees. If you encounter militia types, ask them if all their members use the same ammo. If not, they're a rabble, not an army.

Do we get to see the actual documents the original author talks about?

I have done many thousands of interviews and found that the pre-screening is bypassed by search engines. Even when I phone screen people myself they are trying to quietly Google things in the background so I would ask open ended questions that I know Google will trip over itself on. Even that is not great now given how much LLM's have improved. In the end I found that the persons chances of being hired had more to do with how desperate management were to stuff positions to elevate themselves. At least I was able to document my results where management could not remove it so if a problem came up it was not on me.
Your readme states "MIT License - See LICENSE file for details" but there is no such license file. I've been seeing this a lot lately, did you use an LLM to generate this part of the readme? If so, was MIT a concious choice of yours?
> the verb “to miss” someone or some place conveys precisely the same feeling

It's not a perfect translation, as you can "miss a call", "miss a good opportunity", etc and it doesn't mean that you are feeling saudade of it. But this case would be almost ok, just like we don't have a single word, for example, for the verb "to handle", which is a word that has almost the same idea in several contexts but we need a different word for each one ("lidar", "manipular", "mexer", "operar", "cuidar", "tratar", ...)

However, "to miss" is a verb and would be a translation for "sentir saudade". There's still no precise word for the noun "saudade", the feeling itself. Perhaps the closest one is "nostalgia", but it's still not exactly the same as nostalgia has this sense of something that happened in a distant past, and it is more related to the past itself than a person, a thing, etc. Even in Portuguese we have the word "nostalgia", but no one says "estou sentido nostalgia de você", we say "estou sentindo saudade de você". And we can feel saudade of something that happened yesterday, but not nostalgia.
> Those colleges and universities that figure out how to organize research and teach new foundations and polymathy and prepare their students to understand a world in which every system, at every scale, acts causally on others, will see their stock rise. The rest will struggle to remain relevant.

It is safe to say that this prediction did not come to pass. The system (pun) keeps churning idiot-savants, well-trained cogs in the giant machine that society had been reduced to.
Yes, I’m American. That’s an interesting point. Thanks.
It's not about how long, it's about how often you decide not to do it. Which for me is pretty often.

$5 is not one coffee here. It's about 4 coffees in a coffee bar. And that $5 is without VAT so that's enough for another coffee :) So basically it's a whole working week of morning coffees. To put it into perspective.

This is why I think it has more chance to take off in America than here. Though northern European countries do have a lot more money.
"Dune" as a novel of environmental protest
I have a somewhat different take.

We do not spend time on something because it is the amount of time to reach some objective standard, rather, we spend the amount of time that we feel is necessary for our personal subjective standard. So, of course, even as tools improve, we'll spend the same amount of time. If it's something we didn't care about in the first place, AI tools won't save us any time because we probably already spent barely any time and effort. If it's something we do care about, sure we might use AI to automate so aspects of the job, but we'll still spend the same amount of time examining and tweaking outputs until we feel it is up to snuff.

The real "gains" will only be realized once management eliminates the human operators and accepts the lower quality output that is a consequence of that.

Also, writing about productivity in abstract terms is and will forever remain an example of complete stupidity. It is not an objective measurable universal like "amount of oxygen". The definition changes depending on what it is you are actually trying to do. To give an example, I might be trying to eliminate any and all use of AI in my workplace, under this goal, any use of AI is fundamentally counterproductive.
> The US penal system is explicitly a continuation of the former slave system.

Penal labor is not exclusive to the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penal_labour

> It isn't coincidental that so many prisons were built on former plantation property, or that the incarceration rate of black men is so high.

32% of prisoners are Black: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incarceration_in_the_United_St...

56% of homicide perpetrators are Black: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_crime_in_the_United_S...

Using homicide as indicator of general criminality because it's hard to fudge the numbers or inflate them with over-policing. Granted the correspondence is surely not perfect, but given such a parsimonious explanation, we'd need strong justification to reach for conspiratorial alternatives.

As somebody who successfully avoided twitter stuff my whole life - whats the lure of this? Following some folks reading some random brainfarts is not how I imagine spending my time, and that's all I can see on this. Maybe I have just different type of personality than target audience.

Or is it so addictive like social networks seem to be?
I have never heard of anyone in the developed world who would be afraid to criticize Al-Qaeda or the Taliban or Isis. Actually I have never heard anyone NOT criticize them when talking about them.
While reaching across silos seems good, in theory, my experience is there's just too much breadth and domain knowledge for it to work consistently.

Sure I know application code and have worked with a handful of frameworks, but if I'm enforcing infrastructure or performance concerns and implementing across a handful of different services, it's extremely time consuming getting up to speed in each repo and understanding the subtleties and patterns between each one.

I can optimize queries and debug performance issues but the usual roadblock is understanding what the code is _supposed_ to do and whether an optimization provides the correct results (which is not always clear from tests, assuming good ones exist)
A refreshing read, thanks for posting

Yes, it's my opinion that it's meaningless pedantry to argue involuntary servitude is not included in the definition of slavery when used in casual speech on a forum.

I don't believe there's a need to soften language to attempt to weaken the narrative of a "prison slavery system". If one is a proponent of forced labor for convicts then just say so: plenty of people will agree (and plenty will disagree).

No. This is false. Trump specifically called for law and order at the protests twice on Jan 6th.

I'm not sure what you mean by "genuine". My criticisms are sincere, as always, though of course that is no guarantee that they are correct. I've certainly made every effort to ensure that they are, but I'm fallible. Do you think they are incorrect?

If you don't find my perspective of interest, you of course have no obligation to read it, but if I didn't think something like my comments were worth reading, I wouldn't have written them. It's true that they're longer than your post—but that's because your post is unfinished!

Sometimes my writing falls short of the mark, but in this case, other people seem to have found my comment worthwhile, and
I think that it turned out to be much higher quality than I had hoped. This time I think you're missing out by skimming.
I get what you're saying but this is inherently a contradiction:

> As an engineer — in other words: a salaried employee — you're already a businessperson.

An engineer is NOT a business person. I don't recall business fundamentals in computer science classes... but I get it, most companies see full time employees as part of the business that they are responsible for.

The main problem I see is that it becomes an issue as to where the boundaries of the role is, and therefore pushes engineers away from their focus and that leads to more problems down the line. I've seen this so many times in my career and I can attribute it to the fact that orgs do not respect how hard engineering is, so they think they can have this role wear many hats, and then you have applications that are fragile and hard to work with. I get anyone can quit and find a better job, but that's besides the point. "Impact" is just a lazy way for businesses to define roles.
This is pure cope. Brand loyalty will do nothing against the Chinese car companies. American car companies relied heavily on tariffs and import limits to compete with Japanese car companies.

The smallest representation of Chaitin's constant is "Ω". This matches the smallest representation of pi.
Physics is like this too. An odd thing about physics is that it doesn't have very many of its own techniques or tools, so we have to go outside of our field if we want to solve any nontrivial problem -- theoretical or experimental. For instance I didn't take any electronics or programming classes beyond "101" level, but have ended up using both extensively in my later work.

At my present workplace, I've noticed that the people who have polymath tendencies tend to have physical science degrees.
To a degree. You have to keep in mind that a hospital emergency room isn't legally permitted to turn you away even if you can't pay under the Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act.

So the wealthy and insured are covered. The lowest rungs and those that don't care and will just run away are covered. It's mostly lower / middle lower class that this really hurts, ironically.

FYI I just read some more about polymathy and had a look at the curricula. To me it feels really a bit too 'meta'. You might as well say, stay open and curious to any knowledge.

That said, still I'm open and curious... could you please be so kind as to elaborate how that education is very well-rounded? What would the studies yield more concretely?

A simple technique not listed here for drawing contour edges:

1) Create an array storing all unique edges of the faces (each edge being composed of a vertex pair V0, V1), as well as the two normals of the faces joined by that edge (N0 and N1).

2) For each edge, after transformation into view space: draw the edge if sign(dot(V0, N0)) != sign(dot(V0, N1)).

Yemen is not occupied by Israel.

I would like them to refrain from naming people until/unless they are actually convicted.

Heck, I would probably go a step further and update defamation laws to make publishing allegations (legal or otherwise) considered equivalent to making allegations. Far too many lives have been ruined by media “just reporting on allegations”
My family had to evacuate a few times due to fires. One of them, the National Guard was outside my neighborhood helping to coordinate the chaos. I'll never forget seeing Humvees right outside my neighborhood while the sky was blood red and full of smoke. It was like a disaster scene out of a movie, except real life. Not fun as a kid...

We barely were able to find a hotel to go to.

Afterwards, my dad kept 4-6 duffel bags full of water, first aid, clothes, MREs/dry meals, and other gear so if we ever need to get out of the place, we'd be ready.

So yes, it's a good idea to have some supplies ready because you never know.
