I’m referring to the wider issue of what’s referred to by the Americans as “ubiquitous technical surveillance” where they came to the kind of upsetting conclusion for them that they had a long time ago lost the ability to even operate in London without the Brits knowing.

I don't think there’s a good public understanding of just how much things have changed in that space in the last decade but a huge percentage of all existing tradecraft had to be completely scrapped because not only does it not work anymore but it will put you on the enemy’s radar very early on and is actively dangerous.

It’s also why I think a lot of advice I see targeted towards activist types I think is straight up a bad idea in 2025. It just typically involves a lot of things that aren’t really consistent with any kind of credible innocuous explanation and are very unusual which make you stand out from a crowd.
UK and France(along with the US) have nukes, so it's a much different scenario than WW2.
Musk's vision is a big picture of himself.
Your JSON schema says this:
```
"location": "City, State",
...
"workField": "Industry Field"
```

But:
`location` can be an array:
```
"name": "Shopify",
"location": ["Ottawa, ON", "Toronto, ON", "Montreal, QC", "Waterloo, ON"],
```

and `workField` is an array:
```
"workField": ["Banking", "Financial Services"]
```

And if it is for Canada, why identify locations as `"location": "City, State"`?
Basically Bioshock's Rapture, but on Mars.
I am European and I tend to agree. The way it's currently going, it'll self-select for people who are good at filling out forms, which will either be the giant companies that can afford to hire what are effectively tax-funded civil servants (they happen to be employed by companies, but only exist because of the government and are effectively a tax on business).

Or there'll be a common European subgenre of "startups" that exclusively draw funding from EU/govs because they're great at filling out forms and telling paper pushers what they want to hear. Then they ship some hypercompliant product nobody wants to use.
I think that looking at it in terms of Embeddability is more useful compared to portability.

In the sense that compiling C to any language is easily done without too many problems, what wasm allow is to have a secure and performant interface with that language.

For example IIRC one of the first inclusions of wasm was to sandbox many of the various codecs that had regular security vulnerabilities, in this Wasm is neither the first nor the only approach, but with a combination of hype and simplicity it is having good success.

> he says some weird stuff like civil war is inevitable

That's not an insult... And while provocative this is not weird. Everyone sees where things are going in the UK and Europe in general and a violent backlash is at least a plausible risk at some point. In fact, he made that comment during riots in the UK...

In fairness, everyone does. Starmer is one of the most unpopular PMs in history after only about 6 months in power.

Low supply?

Big demand?

This would imply that machinists, etc., are enjoying a big surge in salary. Is this true?
I remember being upset about Google Reader for a few months after its death… before moving to one of its many, fuller-featured competitors and carrying on using RSS feeds exactly as before.

What upsets me re RSS these days is how many people were apparently so reliant on one reader that they still publicly mourn every time it comes up, 12 years later. Who are these fair-weather feed followers who threw their hands in the air with the loss of exactly one product?
I resonate with what you say, but try to think of it differently: if you are able to take better care of yourself, even if that feels like in an egotistical fashion, you will have more energy for empathy. smaller slice of a bigger pie.

18:51 ChatGPT 4 is 3 years old ? wow
Does that black-hat vendor already exist? Do they already sell the service of taking $25 to unmask Google users? What calculation does that vendor do about how many customers they'll get before Google notices? Does the exploit developer get a 50% cut? The black-hat vendor is taking all the risk; seems unlikely. Arranging this whole thing is work; finding the "black hat vendor" is work; not getting caught in the process is work; not getting screwed by your partner is work. You pencil out the numbers and this gets less and less plausible as a way to beat a $10,000 lump sum payment.

I think the reality though is just that there's literally no buyer for this.

You could sell the service yourself! I bet you could make a couple thousand bucks before you and your customers got indicted.

That's probably another reason why Google kills so many products that are successful, but not successful enough for Google's whole system to justify keeping them alive and secure.

Thank you for proving my point.

What you really want to do is

git commit -anm "wip"

The -a is important because maybe you haven't staged the changes yet.
The -n is important because otherwise your pre-commit hooks will run, and potentially modify your commit.

Also, what happens if some of the files were partially staged?

This is a post about shiny new thing author loves.

And author loves shiny new things [1]: "...use 10% of your time writing code (or telling AI to write code)..."

What about old, not shiny things?

For example, SQL is Turing complete and expresses simulation of data flow paradigm [2]. It is effectively executable on current massively parallel hardware and even scales horizontally, enabling safe transactional "microservices." Why should we embrace WASM, but not SQL?

Luckily, starting a local HTTP server for development is more-or-less a one-liner for a long time, in most OSes (maybe even Windows might ship with Python nowadays?):

python -m http.server 8080

If if you're stuck with python2

python -m SimpleHTTPServer 8080

At least this doesn't introduce the security issues you'd see with any file:// resource being able to load other file:// resources
You're being downvoted because you're making good points. Downvotes reduce visibility of comments and discourage participation of people that go against the political leanings.

A good chunk of the time I see flagged comments that are innocuous opinions.
Other cars have this too. I was going to make the same comment, it’s such a perfect interface.
You don't need to participate if it doesn't interest you.

I've not heard/read this before, but I use Mullvad and my anecdotal experience confirms this. I get blocked or put into a captcha trap quite frequently. I assumed this would be an issue for any/all well-known VPN IPs. Are you saying that it's not? Do you have any alternative recommendations?
It's wasteful, that's not the point, and you kinda know that wasn't the point but still decided to create a pedantic strawman. Probably this social ineptitude is a reason you're looking for a job...

I have always been ruthless about not following high-volume posters on Twitter, because I can’t consume that much content and I’m generally after high signal links and/or contact with people I know irl. So, I don’t follow pinboard, who’s a high volume poster, and I don’t have the mental energy to go track down sufficient material to prosecute him with evidence, online argument-style.

With that said, what Anil and the poster above seem to say is that Maciej is transphobic. The link above then quotes Maciej’s posts about some female boxer from Algeria, something else I know nothing about and am unqualified to speak on. These are presented with posts from some IOC boxing official that come across as entirely reasonable. In contrast, this post of Maciej’s works via insinuation:

“Watching male competitors in women’s sports is a lot like the Biden debate thing. Everyone can see with their own eyes what’s going on”

This might as well have been written by moldbug. It doesn’t come right out and say “hey this boxer is a man and shouldn’t be allowed to compete”; it says anyone can see with their own eyes. But the posts from the IOC official directly contradict this boxer is a man or trans. I don’t care enough to research this topic, so maybe I’m wrong, but I’m making a judgment based on pattern recognition and I’m free to do so.

I love many of Maciej’s blog posts. He feels to me like a fellow cynic, especially about the current tech industry. I have no idea what has compelled him to post about women’s Olympics boxing specifically, or transgender issues generally, but that he seems to be doing so changes my opinion of him, shifting him a bit more from “personally beloved Internet personality, of about the same age and perspective of my own” to “terminally online Internet commentator who can’t keep himself from posting tired perspectives about overdone topics that don’t benefit from his commentary, a la David Brooks.”

Having now compared him to moldbug and David Brooks, I fully expect him to roast me into eternity. In no way would I advocate any silencing of Maciej, nor does anyone else in this thread. There’s no fascism to be found. What I am trying to lay out for you, earnestly, are my own heuristics for deciding who and what I should spend my precious attention on. I will pay less attention to him now that I’ve seen examples of this style of argumentation from him about topics that are far-removed from importance. This is not fascism, but personal liberty.

One of the currents among post-conservatives is aristopopulism. That the overgrown US permits companies so big that only a massive government can handle them. Thus, divisions of America would prevent a Washington DC politician from demanding to regulate, say, a North Dakota work camp.
Thank you for doing this! When I first came across this poster, I was like "I NEED A PRINTED COPY OF THIS". I had a large custom canvas printed with it on it and it's hanging in my office. I didn't even realize / notice a few of the items that are pointed out on this site. I'm excited to see what other nuggets get added.
> the requirement … threatens to harm the country’s ability to compete internationally in research.

Science has a lot of problems that are currently plaguing its credibility, and research as a competition between nations and institutions is one of them. Science by nature should be a collaborative endeavor.
There's nothing religious about that when it comes to the big players like Altman and co. It's a story to keep attracting investment, that they are on the verge of a major revolution. That things are different etc.

If you think that with russians rolling over whole Europe the only thing changing is to whom you pay taxes that's a grave mistake on your understanding and borderline insulting to those of us like me who grew up under direct soviet cough cough russian oppression and have their parent's lives very effectively ruined by it.

Ever wondered why eastern part of EU is so vastly different to western EU regarding mentality? Why east has corruption as BAU at all levels, is a bit nihilistic in world view, and certainly doesn't trust at all some centralized Brussel control? It wasn't nearly as bad right after WWII. But we had it all from them, oppression, absolute lack of freedom on North Korea level, political executions, people gone to gulags or uranium mines with basically no ticket back for the horrible crimes of ie fighting nazis as allied pilots in Britain. The damage to whole nations is still felt these days, countries being shadows of their potential, natural resources literally stolen without any payment back (former Czechoslovakia's massive uranium deposits as a random example), especially if you compare them to places 'just across the fence' which experienced freedom, market economy and ie weren't forced to reject Marshall plan.

Russia has absolutely nothing good to offer to any democratic country which was true 100 years ago and is still the fact now, just a spiral downfall into mediocrity and further, rampart corruption and theft and rule of stronger compared to rule of law. Basically a mafia state, they just can't create anything better.

JB products have in-memory PSI (as opposed to LSP queried over network), and this PSI by it's nature is multi-language, so they support language injections naturally. This comes in very handy when you are writing an HTML file with embedded CSS and JS, or when you have inline HTML strings or regexps in your code.

The entire chapter 2.4 "Undoing Things" in the Git book can be replaced with a single `jj undo`.

----

Anything to do with IDs is simpler, because a jj change ID is fixed at creation, even as the underlying current commit ID changes. This makes IDs useful even in a rebase-heavy environment.

----

Likewise, jj replaces the need for staging and stashes as completely separate concepts with their attendant extra commands. Anything you used them for is replaced with uniform commit/change commands: split/rebase/squash/etc.

Staging is just the current change; when you like the code you have, you make a new change, and the old one is just the parent commit. If you want to freeze part of it, you `jj split -i` the commit into a parent/child, and move the parts you're still working on to the child.

Stashes are WIP commits you leave lying around. If you want to move on to work on something later, you just `jj new some-other-commit`, and you're now on a blank commit whose parent is `some-other-commit`. When you want to resume work on that WIP, you `jj edit some-wip-commit` and/or `jj rebase` it first.

It's truly much simpler to have a bunch of pervasive change/commit operations, instead of superfluous ad hoc concepts with their own mini-commands and behaviors.

I guess I have to say suggesting one not trust a Musk brain implant sounds spot on and pretty pertinent.
What view is that, to be precise? It is naive to assume that acceleration is always going to be in one's favor. It's like saying change is a good thing, so let's do it fast. If you go fast enough, you can go back to the stone age. Is this position anything more than a rebranding of revolutionism? I don't like gambling with people's lives, so I prefer to go slow enough to enable a deliberative political process.
Run Deepseek R1 Locally on an iPhone
Recently I had an experience where the chatbot gave completely wrong subway instructions over and over again. It confidently told me that it was accurate and it was my "trusty companion". It had no idea what was wrong with the answers and kept prompting me to give it the correct answers.

This was in contrast to when I asked it who had access to my chat logs and would only tell me to read the privacy policy. When I asked it to for specifics in the privacy policy it refuses to give wrong answers:

"When it comes to company policies, especially related to privacy and data handling, it's crucial to provide accurate information because these topics are very sensitive and important. I want to ensure you have the most reliable information, and the best way to do that is to refer you directly to the official privacy statement."

It's clear what the priority is for these chatbots: get the public to train them and protect the corporations that run them.

But will the UK and France bail out Germany?

Yes: if Germany acts as a serious and honest partner in defence.

No: if Germany refuses to be a responsible security player and swings back to Russia as soon as it can. If Germany reopens the gas pipelines and throws the balts to the wolves I think that they may find that when they need help, there will be no help.

Also the UK and France have very limited nuclear capability. Yes, it's really helpful in the context of the Nato alliance. The uncertainty that the european weapons adds into any calculus of escalation really enhances the overall deterrent. Once the USA is out of the picture there is no escalation ladder, it's national extinction (and)or bust. Very unstable, untenable. I see no evidence at all of this position being altered or updated. If Germany could depend on France or the UK in a nuclear blackmail scenario then I would expect (at the least) a crash tactical nuclear weapon program to be up and running in either one or both. I also think that a four vessel continuous deterrence capability is inadequate, so I would expect much more co-ordination between France and the UK on the at sea element and/or a shift to five+ vessels.

I see none of this - the opposite in fact.
The thinking in Europe when it comes to AI, is "AI for industry", or "AI for science". Like they think of AI as providing a supporting role in industry or science, but they do not think of AI as a goal in itself.
This thinking is analogous to the way EU leadership treated "tech" for the past three decades and look how well that turned out for us...

If we had good leadership, these funds would be used to setup 2 or 3 competing AI labs. Forget all that "AI for industry" and "AI for science" nonsense and just catch up to the US and China, and have something competitive, for once.
