100%. It is about aligning with Trump's political opinions. Thus I do expect to see no fact checking of anti-trans, anti-vaccine and anti-immigrant content. But I don't think that Meta's documented censorship of Palestinian content [1] will change, because the censorship is inline with Trump's political opinions.

Just don't show the hands of those people
I have heard this argument directly from Zuck once on a Friday long ago, but a few things:

1. Since then the rise of LLMS has made it easy to accomplish censorship without preventing anyone from speaking. Just drown out voices of moderation with endless engagement bait, or create a network of bots to make it seem like tons of people are reporting a particular community note as inappropriate.

2. The second half of Zuck's thought at the time was that moderation should be more community-oriented -- that communities around the world should have more freedom to make their own decisions around what kind of content was appropriate speech. Unfortunately while I see a gesture in this direction with community notes, it doesn't appear that the community has been given any power to stop a hateful message from being amplified.

The main driver for that sort of thing was a system where production of heirs was seen as socially essential; this is now largely obsolete.

(Even then, the really extreme examples of polygamy were more about social status than practical concerns around succession; again, this is now largely obsolete in most societies.)
Really neat idea actually!
I love the landing page, both the interactive part and particularly the visual style.
One thing that I would note though, is that scrolling down, I expected the images to be interactive since they blend in with the rest of the page and look like interactive elements. I would either try to make it more obvious that they are example images, or actually make them interactive
OCaml doesn't monomorphize functions. Instead references to every type are the same size (either a tagged int or a pointer). This is a sweet spot for OCaml, but doesn't really work for a language that doesn't allocate everything on the heap.

I'm a small-time Shutterstock contributor and my best sellers are all news-style images from actual events. (For example, when announcing a future conference, a publication often likes to illustrate the article with images from the previous iteration). While possible, those are more difficult to reproduce with AI.

Shutterstock used to have a program called "Red Carpet" where they endorsed independent photographers to help us get in to events as press. Then like all good things, it was shut down, no explanation given. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

We’d still need code to load the data back, also to continously test that code (or debug in production), plus handle data migrations. There might be more use cases. Using a regular db might be simpler at this point, depending on the project’s setup.
I don't consider it unfortunate. It's the marketplace in action. The owner of the site is, (as you probably know since you allude to his frequent complaints on his website about not having any money), an unpleasant person who has attacked many people over the years, including a lot of former supporters of his site.

A lot of people don't want to give guys like him money, especially when most of the website's value was created by the thousands of bike tourists who put their journals there, not the creator of the website itself.

It would be useful to see some discussion of sampling regularity, e.g., whether some of these methods can be used with unevenly spaced time series. I work with satellite image time series, and clouds mean my usually-weekly series can sometimes be missing points for months. We often employ interpolation, but that can be a major source of error.
There's nothing complex about Zuckerberg's statement.

zig comptime is not a macro system and you can't really generate code in a way that makes hygeine a thing to worry about (there is no ast manipulation, you can't "create variables"). the only sort of codegen you can do is via explicit conditionals (switch, if) or loops conditioned on compile time accessible values.

thats still powerful, you could probably build a compile time ABNF parser, for example.

Someone very clever at Nvidia realized that if they rename their professional card (Titan) to be part of their "gaming" line, you can convince adults with too much disposable income that they need it to play Elden Ring.

I didn't know of anyone who used the Titan cards (which were actually priced cheaper than their respective xx90 cards at release) for gaming, but somehow people were happy spending >$2000 when the 3090 came out.
As my sister says (lives around Prospect Park with kids) — if you don’t gaslight yourself that it’s the best city in the world while paying such premiums to live here, you’ll get depressed in a second.

But I agree, I’m scratching my head whenever I hear that statement. It’s definitely the best city in USA though, as there are about 3 real cities in the country.
> In the lead up to the Iraq War in 2003, there was so much discussion in the media about how Iraq had weapons of mass destruction

This is my favorite theory of what happened:

Iraq perceived Iran, and internally Shiites and Kurds, as its real and threatening enemies. USA was perceived as being far away and weak. To keep their real enemies scared, Iraqis kept up the illusion of having a solid WMD program. Iraqis would hint at their WMDs when communicating with their neighbors.

From the point of Western intelligence, the intelligence picked up Iraqis talking about their WMDs when Iraqis didn't know being listened to, and when Western intelligence assumed that Iraqis had no reason to lie. While there was no physical evidence of the WMDs, this was perceived as a rather reliable intelligence. Why would Iraqis talk about their WMDs in secret, if they didn't even have any?

"Failing to understand the Iraqi leader’s mindset and the context of his decisions, the intelligence community assumed that Iraq’s ongoing denial and deception operations regarding his alleged WMD programs, despite periods of genuine cooperation were ipso facto confirmation that Iraq was hiding WMD caches and programs."

"It appears that the intelligence community never seriously considered the possibility that Baghdad was conducting its denial and deception operations to hide weakness."

> I also have a Philips One toothbrush with a USB-C charging input. Similarly, I can't charge it with a USB-C cable directly from my MacBook but have to use A in between (I unsuccessfully tried using either a thinner "lower speed" or a thicker "higher speed" USB-C cable). I'm assuming the toothbrush doesn't support PD, so then why can't it fall back to traditional charging with a C-to-C cable?

Because USB-C says that a power source cannot provide 5V onto Vbus until negotiation has happened to prevent both endpoints of the link "competing" for power which can have disastrous results - for USB-C devices, that is either two resistors on cc1/2 that is pretty dumb 5V, or it is actual bi-directional communication. Early USB-C devices, most infamously the Raspberry Pi 4, various vapes and likely your toothbrush managed to mess that up [1], although I recently came across a flashlight at Lidl which also has broken resistors.

Using an USB-C male to USB-A female adapter fixes this because the adapter has the two cc1/2 5K resistors correctly in place. The adapter can safely do that because - other than early USB 1 era hubs - 99.999% of USB-A devices with a separate power source have backfeed prevention, and so the source side will just provide 5V at either 100 mA or 500 mA cutoff.

More sophisticated power source devices will also try negotiation over D+/D- after the sink device has started to negotiate higher voltages using various proprietary schemes, there's controller chips available that speak everything from plain 5V@100mA bootstrap over 5V@500mA USB2 and proprietary schemes up to 20V@3A (and probably, given the newest USB-C PD specs, even higher), without even needing an external microcontroller (but of course, muxing the bus for everything up to USB4/TB should there be one). Absolutely wild.

Social cohesion is probably stronger influenced by wealth disparity than diversity.

In the US about a third of this disparity is due to inheritance.

The HP IPAQ was mostly PocketPCs (PDAs) without modems - those models aren't even smartphones. There are definitely models without vertical screens despite your claim. The HP IPAQs that had modems all had keys on the front (keyboard, dpad+several extra, or number pads). The one with a d-pad+feature keys (fewest buttons) had a detachable QWERT keyboard. Source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPAQ

Re:LG Prada 1: I didn't realize there was an earlier model without keyboard (it wasn't released globally). Looked it up: it has T9 typing, no QWERT of any kind, only 8mb (mb!) of storage, no wifi, and a ported feature phone OS. It in no way resembles a modern smartphone.

You didn't mention the other 3 claims I debunked.

Read the comment you're replying to. I didn't say they were first to market with every single item on the list. I said "Nothing like this existed as a full package before the iPhone". The LG Prada has 2/6 (and is missing things which are required to be a "smartphone" at all). The HP IPAQ is another 2/6. Apple was genuinely were first with several of these big ones: non-embedded kernel, functional finger-typing (not stylus), desktop web engine, slate form factor. Now 99%+ of smart phones use the design decisions iPhone pioneered. Calling the iPhone "minor improvement" of what came before is wild. It was a brilliant both technically and for its design.
If you make credit reports less informative, the natural consequence is to make the result of extending credit less predictable, and therefore make the cost of credit higher and the availability lower. I do not assert that the costs are greater than the benefits of such a policy, but I do think that attempts to define and measure those effects should inform the policy.

Personally I see the value in exploring the limits of what systems are capable of, and exploring ways to use them outside of the parameters for which they were designed.

I would also generally like to avoid being on-call for a system that is being pushed to its limits or used outside the parameters it was designed for.

Saying "this company is bad, we have a short in it" is not a new tactic, and is definitely not market manipulation according to the legal definition. Basically they are saying the market price is incorrect, and this is why they think so.

IANAL, but this is not a new tactic, and plenty of companies who are shorted would have challenged it if it were.

I mean, saying positive things about a company that you've bought shares in is essentially the same thing, and that happens all the time.
I definitely respect David's opinion given his caliber, but pieces like this make me feel strange that I just don't have a burning desire to use them.

Like, yesterday I made some light changes to a containerized VPN proxy that I maintain. My first thought wasn't "how would Claude do this?" Same thing with an API I made a few weeks ago that scrapes a flight data website to summarize flights in JSON form.

I knew I would need to write some boilerplate and that I'd have to visit SO for some stuff, but asking Claude or o1 to write the tests or boilerplate for me wasn't something I wanted or needed to do. I guess it makes me slower, sure, but I actually enjoy the process of making the software end to end.

Then again, I do all of my programming on Vim and, technically, writing software isn't my day job (I'm in pre-sales, so, best case, I'm writing POC stuff). Perhaps I'd feel differently if I were doing this day in, day out. (Interestingly, I feel the same way about AI in this sense that I do about VSCode. I've used it; I know what's it capable of; I have no interest in it at all.)

The closest I got to "I'll use LLMs for something real" was using it in my backend app that tracks all of my expenses to parse pictures of receipts. Theoretically, this will save me 30 seconds per scan, as I won't need to add all of the transaction metadata myself. Realistically, this would (a) make my review process slower, as LLMs are not yet capable of saying "I'm not sure" and I'd have to manually check each transaction at review time, (b) make my submit API endpoint slower since it takes relatively-forever for it to analyze images (or at least it did when I experimented with this on GPT4-turbo last year), and (c) drive my costs way up (this service costs almost nothing to run, as I run it within Lambda's free tier limit).

- Insisted on conducting interview in russian despite both being able to speak English.

- Used AI to overdub "translation" using Zelensky's own synthesized voice. Actually putting words into Zelensky's mouth.

- Manipulated translation to replace Zelensky's "we hit people" into "slap everyone on the wrist" while no such expression exist in russian.

- Moved that question to the very beginning (0:40 second) so every American listening will hear this first.

- Posted on Social media about "innocent mistake" https://t.me/s/lexfridman/329

"Hi everyone, I would like to fix a translation in the audio / subtitle that better captures what President Zelenskyy was saying. I will delete this post once we find a good translation. The President said:"

"UPDATE #3 (FINAL): I went with 5: "We cracked down hard on everyone" to make intended meaning absolutely clear."

except 'slap on the wrist' is still there and will be "fixed" after everyone who wanted to hear the interview already listened.

Good job agent Alexei Fedotov!
At risk of sounding argumentative, another way of looking at this I think is that the community of people in the US who have known only a facts-first approach to reality are now discovering the size of the community of people whose worldview is effectively tribal. I was raised in a very rural community and many of my most vivid memories are of members of my extended family recounting stories which I now know are urban legends, joking knowingly with one another about how so called experts in far-off cities were confused, and cautionary tales about the horrible things that members of other races would do to you. You can imagine how confusing it was then to go off to college and then to see the world and meet people and discover how much of the mythology I'd absorbed was no more than that.

The bulk of the people I've described had very little interaction with the world outside the area where they lived, and the only way they were likely to interact with someone from the facts-first community was via a letter to the editor of some magazine (which might not be published), or if an outsider came to visit, in which case politeness might avoid a confrontation.

Social media introduced these two groups to each other, each group thinks the other is comprised of fools and neither is shy about saying so, and here we are. In my own family, I have yet to see a case in which a member of the tribal knowledge community was moved by an argument from a member of the facts-first community; their belief structure seems to ossify at around pubescence and compromising on it in any way would risk a loss of status in that community.

I take some comfort in believing that we have not been plopped into a post-truth reality, but rather that providing the internet to rural tribal communities was rather like switching on a light and discovering what things had been hiding before our eyes in the dark. I think its also a generational issue because the difference between my old relatives and their offspring my childrens' age is nearly as stark as the difference between the facts-first and tribal-knowledge communities on the whole. While it sucks that this post-truth era will be with us for a while I'm hopeful that the same internet access that led to this schism will also allow at least some of the kids who grew up like I did to be skeptical about tribal knowledge from a younger age. However you might also argue that now the segment of the entire population who are susceptible to misinformation will be poisoned in the same way I was.

Anyhow thanks for your comment; reading it made me stop to think about something that had been bothering me a great deal lately and it was helpful writing this response.
