Property graphs don't specify schema.

Is it Shape.color or Shape.coleur, feet or meters?

RDF has URIs for predicates (attributes). RDFS specifies :Class(es) with :Property's, which are identified by URIs.

E.g. Wikidata has schema; forms with validation. Dbpedia is Wikipedia infoboxes regularly extracted to RDF.

Google acquired metaweb freebase years ago, launched a Knowledge Graph product, and these days supports Structured Data search cards in microdata, RDFa, and JSONLD.

[LLM] NN topology is sort of a schema.

Linked Data standards for data validation include RDFS and SHACL. JSON schema is far more widely implemented.

RDFa is "RDF in HTML attributes".

How much more schema does the application need beyond [WikiWord] auto-linkified edges? What about typed edges with attributes other than href and anchor text?

AtomSpace is an in-memory hypergraph with schema to support graph rewriting specifically for reasoning and inference.

There are ORMs for graph databases. Just like SQL, how much of the query and report can be done be the server without processing every SELECTed row.

Query languages for graphs: SQL, SPARQL, SPARQLstar, GraphQL, Cypher, Gremlin.

Object-attribute level permissions are for the application to implement and enforce. Per-cell keys and visibility are native db features of e.g. Accumulo, but to implement the same with e.g. Postgres every application that is a database client is on scout's honor to also enforce object-attribute access control lists.

And then identity; which user with which (sovereign or granted) cryptographic key can add dated named graphs that mutate which data in the database.

So, property graphs eventually need schema and data validation.

markmap.js.org is a simple app to visualize a markdown document with headings and/or list items as a mindmap; but unlike Freemind, there's no way to add edges that make the tree a cyclic graph.

Cyclic graphs require different traversal algorithms. For example, Python will raise MaxRecursionError when encountering a graph cycle without a visited node list, but a stack-based traversal of a cyclic graph will not halt without e.g. a visited node list to detect cycles, though a valid graph path may contain cycles (and there is feedback in so many general systems)

YAML-LD is JSON-LD in YAML.

JSON-LD as a templated output is easier than writing a (relatively slow) native RDF application and re-solving for what SQL ORM web frameworks already do.

There are specs for cryptographically signing RDF such that the signature matches regardless of the graph representation.
It's something a developer chooses to do or not do though. No need for a public repo to do development.
Drag and fibre tension.

In the former case, you have close to zero for both. In the latter, you're dragging 2km of line behind a small aircraft, risking the line getting snagged by something on the ground.
And REM seem to have been determined not to be. Commercial decisions not to play stadiums and not stoke exaggerated tales of excess that would make Hunter Thompson blush?

It's kind of cool how longevity has worked for the Stones while they've been so consistently second rate. Starting not remotely in the same class as the Beatles but rebels. But by 1970 they weren't in the Beatles class of rebelliousness either. Songwriting improved but it needed to and not to Lennon-McCartney levels. Does anyone much rate them above Muddy Waters, Chuck Berry, Howlin Wolf, Hendrix or even Bert Jansch? Still they persisted. Their solo projects consistently sucked no matter what talent they brought in so the Stones continued and their cultural relevance grew.

Somehow I doubt anyone will care any more about Stones songs than Jagger or Richards solo songs 50 years hence. REM may fare no better. Could be wrong, only time will tell. Jagger's lips and tongue logo was another seemingly purely commercial decision that has greatly boosted their cultural relevance. In 1995 they were deemed by Microsoft to be second choice to REM on what we might assume to be a cultural basis.
Part of the problem is that when ops is doing their job well, nobody notices. You get a party when the regular devs ship a big new feature, but no-one really celebrates when you have five nines of availability for the year.

Personally I’m a big advocate for devs doing a rotation on an ops-focused team so they better understand the full picture of professional software development. Hopefully they learn that it takes more than code in an editor to create a product.

There is just one thing missing from this. Name Constraints.

This doesn't get brought up enough but a Name Constraint on a root cert lets you limit where the root cert can be signed to. So instead of this cert being able to impersonate any website on the internet, you ratchet it down to just the domain (or single website) that you want to sign for.

No, but you can use Frida (which replaces an inline syscall with a JMP to a handler) but it quickly becomes complicated if the app verifies its own integrity at unpredictable points during runtime. When this happens hardware breakpoints are your friend, however the developer can still make your life hard by inlining all over the app, and then you quickly run out of hardware breakpoints.
Right, batch attacks certainly threaten 1024 bit RSA, but, obviously, 2048 bit RSA is not just incrementally harder to break than 1024 bit RSA.
I always enjoy your explanations of how you've implemented features in D
Truthfully, for all intents and purposes, I'm the one speaking out of my ass on this topic. These are some really good points. You describe a real-life experience which I clearly lack; I definitely concede my previous point. My apologies.

FWIW I think it's really admirable of you to maintain those community connections, not everyone would do the same.
The 'big vs small' debate is not always about money.

REM played stadiums. I saw REM at a huge stadium. I am chuckling a bit at trying to weigh the Rolling Stones against Bert Jansch. There's not enough Pentangle in modern pop culture.

But this will never be an issue in the real world
- Also Random_Rockstar_Dev_254

I see this a lot too. Which I think I have a good analogy: judging a program by its output is like judging a math proof by its last line. But math proofs are really hard and annoying because you can divide by x somewhere and then have to contend with the fact that x cannot be 0 or else you have to divide by 0, making your proof invalid. The proof is only valid in its entirety. I see programs in the same way. But this is exactly why Test Driven Development is so naive. You can't just write tests to check your correctness, it only works under the assumption that you can predict all possible classes of data that will be processed and in which way. Currently and in the future. The experience of a senior should certainly make TDD far more effective, but I'd say a graybeard is one who knows the limitations and is able to write code that is efficient, can per-emptively address future tests, and writes in such a way that the code can be easily modified and adapted for the future changes.

If I've learned anything in my history of coding it is that where the program ends up is never where I expect it to. My experience makes me better at predicting that differential, but to be honest, given a big enough project you are never really going to be able to predict the end state. Things change that are out of your control.

I'd also argue that this is why it is so important to write documentation and comments while coding. It'll help you later on and anyone that is onboarding (small cost to document, but many people reap the benefits). I don't want a junior coming in and completing a task fast, but I want them to come in and learn the codebase and how to adapt it for the task. Sure, it isn't as fast, but juniors are an investment anyways. I think we have to be honest that no matter what we do we are either investing or taking debt, both of which compound. But I think the problem is that interest is hard to observe and debt is less observable than the direct cost seen in an investment. Maybe a real Sr Dev is the one who is more aware of these trade-offs?

As someone who has run quite a few projects and communities in the past, my tip is straightforward: ban hammer on the first instance, no warnings, no questions.

At the first sight of an idiot, nuke them from orbit and do the same to anyone who hints compassion towards the idiot.

This ensures more good people will flock, because often they refrain from engaging because they can't stand idiots.
Tor is a pretty big counterexample here. They're the largest and most awarded SciFi publisher and have been DRM-free for well over a decade now. They've also said that being DRM free hasn't been a problem for them.
I agree! People who predicted QC soon over the last few decades should lose credibility. They were wrong and they were wrong for no good reason. There is a real opportunity cost to focusing on the wrong thing. There are definitely grifters in the space. Responsible QC researchers should call it out (e.g. Scott Aaronson).

But it doesn't necessarily follow that you can dismiss the actual underlying field. Within the last five years alone we've gone from the quantum supremacy experiment to multiple groups using multiple technologies to claim QEC code implementations with improved error rates over the underlying qubits. People don't have to be interested in these results, they are rather niche (a little community as you put it), but you shouldn't be uninterested and then write a presentation titled 'Why Quantum Cryptanalysis is Bollocks'.
> 10k MRR no debt solo biz more or less means retirement in a high COL country

Without context, this could either be very nice or not remotely feasible. A charitable take would be that you have next to no expenses, and some other personal salary or have another household income, and you own your own home, and you're basically already prepared to retire anyway and this would be an amount that you'd be able to earn in perpetuity, then... maybe?

But if it lasts only a few years then that's just a nice boost to savings or a down payment on a small condo. In my high CoL city, if you earned the equivalent of a flat $10k/m after tax and managed to get it all up front, and not have to spend any of it on literally anything else, then you'd be able to pay cash for a townhome and be back to needing at least a few grand a month for living out the rest of however many decades you have.

It's retirable money if it's the floor of what you earn over the course of an entire working life, or some other variables prove favorable, but I guess it's quite bleak how not far that money goes these days.
We are presently evaluating at least two of the options mentioned above and the pricing for 1000 minutes at both comes out to well under 10% the cost of your current listed rate. I know you've probably been told not to compete on price but this is a space where I think it's hard to compete on quality yet. As for other analysis features, I think you're going to find yourself locked into a commoditised feature race which you're currently 6 months behind on.

What nobody is doing well at the moment is effective prompt versioning, comparison, and deployment via git or similar. This would be a killer feature for us but nobody is close to having shipped it from what I can see.

Great article highlighting a complex problem, and the steps required to solve it.

EDIT: May be a situation that would call for "Dog Fooding", to solve for the detailed use-cases?

USA does not spend enough resources to get a highly effective suite of services together, nor appreciate enough the value of human life to consistently provide care to people, ironically.

I'm currently dealing with the impact of a homeless, mutually abusive (shouting, fighting), drug-using couple camping either on the strip of grass directly in front of my home (most recently for weeks) or various sidewalks / bus stops in a 2 block radius, here in Seattle.

Worse, they attract "pals" who are : heavier drug users, very very disruptive to the neighborhood by causing nuisances including walking into traffic and being struck / killed here, creating public health issues with drug paraphernalia and human waste, etc.

This article reminds me of the complexity the couple faces, freeing themselves from the shackles of their abusive relationship, moving away from the homeo-statically well-know life on the streets.

I want them gone. I see it's difficult. I wish more Civil Servants were available to guide them.

There aren't that many. The Seattle Unified Care Team has been ineffective for this couple, they have been here for over four years, and it has not improved.

To me it sort of cemented the transition from the B52s of Planet Claire to the B52s of Love Shack. An album of D-grade REM songs with "Roam" playing behind them. Every song on the album would have been improved with Fred Schneider randomly interjecting. Especially "Losing My Religion". "That's me in the spotlight, baby!"

Also: the first REM album where you could really hear how bad Stipe's singing was, and not in that good "anyone can sing along to this and it will still sound like the Flaming Lips" Wayne Coyne way.

I really dislike that album.
As it was told to me, the part about swearing the oath to the constitution comes before the President, and it is understood by all service-members that said word order very much matters. In that, if the President gives an unconstitutional order, your honor demands that you follow the constitution.

Also, that '(or affirm)' bit is interesting too. It's there because some religions prohibit swearing, most notably in US history, the Quakers. In fact, a few Quaker presidents have refused to swear during inaugurations and have chosen to affirm instead, I think.

I'm very curious now whether speaking to an LLM multi-language base model in German, results in it generating German-language responses that are more ego-stroking than German speakers would tend to be (presumably because it learned "be polite" as a general rule); or whether it results in the LLM being more direct in German than it is in English (presumably because it learned "be polite" as a rule of English, but not as a rule of German.)
For what it's worth, I always downvote "I can't speak my mind because my opinions are too controversial" comments, but I don't downvote controversial comments if they're thoughtful.

I think most of the time when people feel they can't speak their mind, the reality is that their opinions are shallow and poorly thought out, and they're not willing to receive that feedback or put more energy into formulating an opinion.

If you're jumping to conclusions by looking at people's photos - you're probably not really coming to a considered conclusion based on the breadth of evidence. The downvotes you were anticipating were probably deserved.
We construct meaning, one way or the other. From one point of view, we are grains of sand to the universe. From another, we are friends, family, colleagues, and more.

I know what it is like to not achieve what you want in the timeframe you want. But with effort you can renegotiate what matters most and adjust your aim.

The related problem I have with LLMs and coding is that sometimes it does something right, I accidentally make a wrong suggestion, and it just goes with my suggestion without telling me that it thinks what I suggested is a bad idea and if I really want to confirm doing it.

I'm also mostly familiar with Windows, and on Windows until recently (few years ago), dynamically loading (e.g. with "LoadLibrary", e.g. "dlopen") a .dll caused issue with the .dll's own thread_locals. Microsoft fixed this, but folks have observed slower code

```
In VS2017 15.9.26 this executes in ~270ms and with VS2019 16.7.1 it takes ~1450ms.

Oh trust me, I'm aware how horrible people can be. But it still makes some difference, and more than a pessimist might think.

A variation of this idea. We have an introvert battery that is drained with people. We also have a human connection battery that needs to be charged. A poor match will drain our introvert battery quickly, and does a poor job of charging our human connection battery. A "2%er" can charge our human connection battery and will only drain our introvert battery at a very slow rate.

The title is more or less meaningless these days. That said the other problem is people can't always appreciate the perspective of a more seasoned developer. Some people who are very junior or intermediate think they know better since they don't have the experience. Lots of things in software come down to judgement/intuition and are not black and white. A lot of software development is about working with people and culture, not code.
Most people that see this happening stay away from it in the first place. Even friends of mine that has no clue about programming has seen how people behave against new users on forums that they would never touch linux with a long stick.

As pointed out above, we in the US incarcerate way more people as a percentage of the population than Singapore. Singapore's Police don't have qualified immunity making them above the law. Not sure what qualifies more as 'authoritarian' but I'd go with the country that imprisons more people and whose Police are immune from consequences.
So the special thing about NEAT is that it allows the shape of the neural net to change. It can also do some sort of mix between two neural nets (like sexual reproduction), but I haven't implemented that.

Natural selection in this sim just happens by itself, there is a limited amount of food and only the best adapted ones survive. So the best performing neural networks duplicate themselves and create small variations of themselves. This part is not connected to the NEAT algorithm, I've just seen that NEAT performs particularly good vs more fixed-structure neural networks.
