> a metric designed to measure how enjoyable a city was to live in

Your metric of how enjoyable a city is to live in is based on how long it takes to leave that city? The logical endpoint of that is moving to the countryside where the TTS = 0, which is very easy to achieve. Begs the question, why are you even living in a city at all?!
It took several decades to finally admit "unnecessarily complex" software was a problem? No wonder.

voter turnout was slightly low, but well within ballpark of every other Us election.

If this is your position, you must conclude no American election is a strong signal of anything.

Furthermore, this is just bad stats. We received a massive sample of the population, that sample is not without bias, but at least is geographically distributed. Do you think if had a 100% sampling rate the result would be dramatically different?

I suspect that missing portion is going bias towards low information population and immigrants who have no interest in US election. Democracy is not about finding every adult with a pulse. You must build a coalition of citizens with a vested interest in their community to get on your program, and take physical action to indicate that support you.
Thanks, I only knew about the USA bombing workers on strike.

Microsoft making this change also rather clearly indicates that malicious actors are actively abusing these spec violations (by walling their phishing pages behind a simple POST on page load).
Ambitious.

Given the great diversity of shell scripting needed (even if just bash) across different variants of Linux and Unix and different platform versions, debugging the resulting transpiled executables is not something I'd be keen to take on. You'd want to be an expert in the Go ecosystem at minimum, and probably already committed to moving your utility programming into Go.

> Regulators worldwide are keen to ensure that marketing and similar services are opt-in [...] but for some reason, forcing AI on customers is acceptable. [...] there needs to be a moratorium on adding AI services without first asking customers for consent

Consent should be required if you're collecting private data for marketing or for training an LLM/etc.

But, I don't think adding some ML functionality to an application (say, OCR to a PDF reader, or translation to posts on a social network) inherently requires getting customers' consent any more than adding any other feature would.

I can appreciate the annoyance over "formerly pristine applications cluttered with AI features" since it's the current trend - but see it as similar to the annoyance over flat design (which rarely even had an opt-out) as opposed to something that needs a legal prohibition.

My new car came with something called "Google Built-In," which seems to be the bastard sibling of Google Car Play.

During the set up, if you'd like to read the privacy policy, you must scan a QR code on your phone, which opens a web page that does not display on mobile devices.

If you'd like to opt-out of anything, you have to create a Google account, then log the car into that Google account, then log into that Google account on your phone, then go hunting for the settings on both the car and in the Google account online. Good luck finding them all.

Also, it is not possible to uninstall certain "essential" Google apps from the car. Apparently, YouTube is now an "essential" part of driving.

The conclusion: "One interesting idea is that, at their core, AI models are nothing more than compression models that take the corpus of data humanity has and boil it down to a set of weights" is also good, there is a interesting paper about compressing weather date with neuronal networks: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.12538

What's missing a bit is that the comparison is more for general purpose data, there are some very interesting and super fast compressing algorithms for e.g. numbers (Turbopforc, gorilla, etc...) Daniel Lemires blog is super interesting about the different algorithms and how to make them faster.

> whenever he completed a piece of code, he always ran it in his head a few times to make sure that nothing could go wrong

It's a bit disturbing to me that this is being voiced as a feat of some kind. Everybody should be doing this and most people are capable of it. I'm sure you are as well, despite your own pessimism. If you're not doing this, there's been some failing among your mentors. You can develop this skill with intent and practice and you really really really should.

That's what the programming part of our job is: not pasting in snippets from Stack Overflow, not asking Copilot for something that you hope is okay, not vomiting code until it gets a big green OK from your tooling, not gluing together library functions whose implementation and constraints we don't understand. You should be developing a clear mental model of your code, what supporting utilities it references, how those utilities work and what constraints they impose, as well as actively considering edge cases that need specific attention and the constraints your code projects outward to its callers.

You won't be able to do this consistently during your first couple years of working. And that's fine. But something's gone deeply wrong with your craft if you haven't gotten a handle on it once you're more professionally mature. But rather than feeling incapable of doing it yourself and in awe of those who do, you just need to commit yourself to practicing it as much as you can until it becomes second nature.
There have also been attempts to canonicalize knowledge on the web (semantic web) and lots of things inside of computers are in fact deterministic.

But that is not the direction that AI seems to be taking, it is "smart" because it does a good job of parroting humans that sound "smart", not because it "knows" truths.
It’s not the Starlink you’re thinking of, that’s Subaru’s name for their in-car infotaimnent system and predates the SpaceX Starlink.

So it’s just Subaru.

Also I doubt any ad partners can disable your car (outside of vulnerabilities like this). Subaru can but that’s the case with most modern vehicles.
Question, if you can remote start a subaru with starlink, does that mean I could start my car from the command line during winter??? I don't pay for starlink, never really looked into it, but it sounds cheaper than installing a remote start system lol.
That's a fair concern. I shared it primarily because it's a free IDE.
As someone who used and knew CSS very well, and reluctantly used tailwind, yes. I don't strongly prefer one or the other. But I will say now that I know Tailwind, when I see those large class name strings, my brain parses them shockingly fast, and they kind of melt into the background similar to comments. Also, common linter rules will order the classnames, and that they are always the same between disparate tailwind projects, all together its not nearly the annoying mess I thought it would be on first sight.

I don't think I'd handle a wearing a watch anymore, smart or not.

For waking up, something not technological but working 99% of the time for me: pets (or kids) though you'd want other reasons as well to have those beyond waking you up early in the morning...

Most of my life I've had cats or dogs and their internal clock is amazingly on time. They are actually smart and try different things if you don't wake up at first, adapting to their owner. They include waking mechanisms such as sound, touch, light pain, emotional rewards and possibly guilt tripping/punishment to keep you accountable if you fail to wake up. Birds can work too but I wouldn't recommend keeping a rooster in your bedroom for an alarm unless you're blaring-alarms-levels of hard to wake up and don't have neighbours or a partner, these guys don't have an indoor voice.

Point is you're then forced to care for the pet, wether it wakes you to go out, get food or get cuddles and bob's your uncle: your chances of picking up your phone and doomscrolling first thing in the morning are much lowered.

I used to do experiments with high-pressure hydrogen. It is a lot harder to get leak-free seals, and hydrogen is so small it can actually penetrate certain metals leading to embrittlement. The nice mercaptan we use so humans can sensitively detect leaks with their noses also won't be as effective any more (it's way too big.) I am not aware of a substitute.

Mass-scale deployment of hydrogen is just not going to happen.

> Chatgpt (and other LLMs) are awful at creative prose.

As are most humans.

Don't get me wrong, what I've seen from even the better LLMs have a certain voice and tropes and sacherine worldview that isn't dark enough where it needs to be for the story to work; but on the other hand, what I see on some fiction writing subreddits… the AI is often a genuine improvement over amateur writers, even in cases where the AI contradicts itself about plot elements.

Which is frustrating, because I have the feeling the novel I've been trying to finish writing for the last decade may be usurped by AI before I get my final draft.
There are over 2700 independent PDSes.

https://github.com/mary-ext/atproto-scraping

The number seems to double every few months. It's about as decentralized as Mastodon with its handful of servers controlling most of the network and a long tail of small and single user independent instances. The only difference is recovering from bluesky's official instance (bsky.app) dying is you would have to connect to a different Bluesky instance or convert your PDS data into a website, or port it to some other social media software like Mastodon. I wouldn't be surprised if there are already projects underway to make it possible.

My take on this problem is, good UI frameworks (i.e. tailwind + components) are still rare. So the vast majority of projects use a very small number of them. If 4-5 new quality UI projects popped up, especially if they departed more in their styling, we'd see more diversity.

I've come to realize with design, like much creative work, the trends really do seem to be set by a shockingly small number of people. I wish more people realized this, because I feel there are talented individuals out there not making their own, thinking they'll never be heard. But I suspect some of those people would be unlocking new UI's for a large chunk of the web if they would give it a go.

They are demonstrating how over-broad your own statement was with an *equivalent* statement to show how it only passes on an unhelpful technicality.

Immediately after your quotation is this:

> you only need to spend 5+ years in medical school + whatever extra it takes to become proficient

LLMs pass the bar exam and the medical exam. These are things which I assume I would be able to do myself if only I were willing to dedicate 5 years of my life to each.

I can often see many errors in the code that ChatGPT produces. Within my domain, it's just a speed-up, a first draft I have to fix. Outside my domain, it knows what I *can't* Google because I've never heard the keyword that would allow me to.

On legal questions, ChatGPT (despite passing the bar exam) seems to make up cases. I belive this because I can google the cases and fail to find them. Is this because they don't exist, or because they're not indexed on Google? I don't have the legal background necessary to know — and it would take me years to get the knowledge necessary to differentiate "it's worse than first glance" from "it's better than second glance".

Desktop OS's typically don't protect one application's data from another, or the system's data from an application. At least not out of the box without configuring some kind of sandboxing solution.

The user-based permissions model is an outdated dinosaur from a time when we could trust the applications we run on our systems to act on our behalf. Applications now act on the developer's behalf, often against the user. An application "running as me" should not have access to every resource (file or peripheral) on the device that I have access to. That's a huge blast radius.

Operating Systems really need to start treating developers as adversarial from a security/permissions point of view.

Sinclair was the UK's Steve Jobs - transformative products at super-cheap prices, which kicked off an entire industry.

The shared differentiator was industrial design. Sinclair spent a small fortune on making products look distinctive. The most successful designs (ZX81, Spectrum, QL) were done by Rick Dickinson, but you can already see it in the sleek black plastic Sinclair Executive and the flamboyantly gold plated Sovereign from the 70s.

All of these products were designed to look exciting and futuristic.

The internals were penny-pinched to a ridiculous extent, and were usually flawed and often not all that functional.

But the externals won design awards and caught the imagination of ordinary non-technical users, because they looked like nothing else on sale at the time.
