Take a look at the earlier concepts / renderings for Shrek! Before the studio gutted the team(?) and told everyone to pull their heads in. Absolutely off-putting.
While on the topic, does anybody have a good utility to sanitize things? I'm imagining something I can pipe to:

xclip -selection clipboard -o | sanitize

I've been meaning to throw something together myself, but I worry I'd miss something.
Massively depends on countless factors. Are we talking 365 Copilot and a Sharepoint agent? That's seconds.
The DoD employs experts from many different fields. Wars aren’t just won on the battlefront. PSYOPS is an obvious example of applied social science, but it extends far beyond that.
> In the documentation for the first one, it describes a default "file scope", but really no definition of what a file is.

Probably because if you don't know what a file is, you have a lot more you need to learn first. It's a bare basic fundamental that goes way beyond CSS.

But scope is true - CSS Modules like to pretend the CSS is specific to where it's used, and gloss over that some css attributes cascade to all children. @scope, and specifically the lower bound part of @scope, would fix this.
I'm surprised to hear of the "aspects [...] which sacrifice individuation and individual liberties" - my experience is that the solarpunk aesthetic is often combined with anarchic political views and if anything is too individualistic for my taste. Could you elaborate a little bit on what you're referring to?
The question is what you mean when you say "better work". Are you able to unblock new grads more quickly at home? Are you able to achieve consensus on a new product direction more quickly at home? Or are you able to write code better at home, because you can keep the the new grads and product managers in your Slack backlog for as many hours as you need to maximize code throughput?

I don't want to put words in your mouth, but every time I've had this conversation in the past it's been that last option.
Under Preface -> Rust Version, it says "The text is written for the 2018 edition of Rust", but it does seem released in 2024. Interesting.
re: > see information about sql queries from shell command line. aka nosql - oci cli [1]

Note: field orders must be same for remote odbc & local rust data.

remote odbc ordered dumping of 'sql query' in json format to file 1.

local rust ordered dumping of 'sql query' in json format to file 2.

Do a diff between file1 & file2. 'empty result', specified types match.
non-empty result, then may be a more data in one file than other, type mismatches, 'name' mismatches, or something else.

sticking to the 'only use sql' theme:

Instead of file1 and file2, can dump to temporary table1 and temporary table2.

'Flatten' each individual json record before table insertion! (may need to introduce record order number as index.)

json for file1 is in single column, json for file2 is in single column. join on 'string similarities'. -- 'null values' in one field but not in another indicate unmatched pair. -- may be data type or 'value type', requiring additional sql query to get at needed data type mismatch.

I thought Kunle Olukotun led the team for the first multi-core CPU.
Worth pointing out that we aren't Turing equivalent machines - infinite storage is not a computability class that is realizable in the universe, so far as we know (and such a claim would require extraordinary evidence).

As well, perhaps, worth noting that because a subset of the observable universe is performing some function, then it is an assumption that there is some finite or digital mathematical function equivalent to that function; a reasonable assumption but still an assumption. Most models of the quantum universe involve continuously variable values, not digital values. Is there a Turing machine that can output all the free parameters of the standard model?
> Easily the most successful people in my cohort from school are women in terms of what they've accomplished in their life and careers thus far.

Really no guys in your class became programmers or engineers? Its really common for guys to go into those fields, on average its a few per class depending on country.

Or do you mean success as in they have started families? Women do that much earlier, but that has nothing to do with competence.
> I really do wonder where we lost the plot and where the opposition for diversity programs became legitimately insane.

It's not about diversity programs - they don't care about that. Trump could shift positions and targets tomorrow, and they would go with him. It's about conditioning their movement to follow instructions and to commit horrors.

They've been following the same strategy for decades: Choosing an enemy, demonizing them with continuous propaganda, and then encouraging hatred, violence, and complete contempt for morality, rights, compassion, and humanity.

Other dangerous movements, from the Nazis to the Rwandan Hutus to more, invested a lot of time and effort in conditioning their followers to perpetrate horrors.

Like any terminal disease, when you hear someone in your periphery become seriously ill, you think about them, say some kind and comforting words and if religious, pray in their way for their recovery.

When you or a loved one get the bombshell news, the world flips upside down. Things you thought were important and had real impact on your life start to seem like small potatoes. It’s surreal and hard to comprehend just how abberative bad news changes your world view.
Thanks! Was genuinely curious :)
Reminds me of when Jethro Tull won best Hard Rock/Metal category, beating out Metallica and AC/DC.
> It's entirely possible the survey is anonymous, but they can still see who hasn't responded.

Sure —- but then you know the exact answers of the last person to respond; it’s just the delta between the results before they responded and after, and you know who they are. So they’re fully de-anonymized. And of course that means you can de-anonymize the second-to-last respondent… and so on.
the user who wants it? and a premature retort: if the feedback is "the user / PM / stakeholder could be wrong", then... that's where we are. A "refiner" LLM can be fronted (Replit is playing with this for instance).

To be clear: this is not something I do currently, but my point is that one needs to detach from how _we_ engineers do this for a more accurate evaluation of whether these things truly do not work.
> it's really difficult to build things to last.

Having a non-user replaceable battery is a really easy way to ensure a product stops working after 3-4 years though.

And the criticism is typically directed at companies like Apple, who does make things that last physically, but then force you to upgrade by way of battery.
Design of the Ouroboros packet network (2019)
Reminds me of when I interned as a medic. My instructor gave me a list of rules:

Walk, don't run.

Never trust the public in a vehicle.

Always check the rigging yourself before rapelling down the embankment.

Sleep when you're tired.

Eat when you're hungry.

And never, I repeat, NEVER wait to pee.

When you live in a world where you may have to scramble at any moment, and you work 72 hour shifts, you can't take simple things for granted. We might go from chilling on base to not being back for 15+ hours.
The battery installed along solar farms is usually on the order of hours of energy delivery though. Like 5 hours. It’s fine, but not everyone will be able to ornaffors to buy electricity on when it is cloudy and still for a few days.

that's a great point about the digital audit trail... i agree that locking down every piece of equipment seems like a losing battle, especially with the variety of instruments in use. a system for signing output files would be a much more scalable approach.

it's interesting that journals are starting to require raw data... that shift could definitely drive adoption of these kinds of systems. btw, i've seen some projects focusing on verifiable data provenance, might be relevant here.

>It's hard to take that seriously as a vision of the future

I don't think it is really, it's escapism fundamentally. There's a lot of "cozy" aesthetics like this going around, "Cottagecore"[1] is related cousin, Stardew Valley and games like that embraced the pastoral aesthetics, I think you could also even count lofi music in this.

Solarpunk did explicitly start as an activist movement so I think it really does need to ask itself some questions, first I'd pose is how a Solarpunk community defends itself against some less solarpunky and benevolent people. It's a particular irony that defense, rapidly gaining importance in the world, is not exactly suited to be powered by solarpanels

Ugh. I hate how we (Google) launched proto editions.

It used to be that we broadly had two sets of semantics (modulo additional customizations): proto2 and proto3. Proto editions was supposed to unify the two versions, but instead now we have the option to mix and match all of the quirks of each of the versions.

And, to make matters worse, you also have language-dependent implementations that don't conform to the spec (in fact, very few implementations are conformant). C++ and Java treat everything imported by a proto2 file as closed; C#, Golang, and JS treat everything as open.

I don't see a path forward for removing these custom deprecated field features, or else we'd have already begun that effort during the initial adoption of editions.
I don't think it's bias when I'm aware of actual incidents. Obviously I could be wrong and these incidents aren't long run indicators, and obviously some proportion will likely eventually end up okay because nothing is set in stone.

But when kids are doing things that would get adults jailed I don't think it's bias, though. It's more like a depressing probability.

For training, yes, you will need to share the parameters (i.e., weights and bias); the number is huge. But for inference, you don't need that much high bandwidth to run it in a distributed manner.

According to the author of Exo https://blog.exolabs.net/day-1/:

> When Shard A finishes processing its layers, it produces an activation that gets passed to Shard B over whatever network connection is available. In general these activations are actually quite small - for Llama 3.2 3B they are less than 4KB. They scale approximately linearly with the size of the layers. Therefore the bottleneck here is generally the latency between devices, not the bandwidth (a common misconception).

I think that makes sense because the activations are the numbers coming out of the whole neuron network (or part of it). Compared to the number of parameters, it's not at the same magnitude.
Your reasoning is flawed. Potential wealth is infinite. Cumulative wealth at any given moment is finite but growing rapidly.

Currency will always have a function because there will be certain services that will never be infinite, for example getting a massage from another human. Even with infinite resources and robots doing all jobs you can see how currency will still be worthwhile.
> If execs really want RTO then people will quit and they'll have to hire new people

There have been 550k tech layoffs in the last 2 years. Pretty sure there are quite a few folks ready and willing to do a commute to work in an office to get a paycheck again.
If you can make 4 hours of power a day completely free, industry shifts massively. Rather than making a $1m, 90% efficient machine that operates 24/7, you can make a $50k, 20% efficient machine that you turn off when there isn't sun.
I would say start an opensource project who's main mission is replacing a big tech app/platform. Bet you could get tons of laid off devs to eagerly contribute to something new and exciting that is taking on the empires.
No because switching costs are too high which distorts the market.
Actually, RFK Jr. has for some time been well-known by the staunchest anti-vaxxers to actually be pro-vax. (But for some reason RFK Jr has been represented by the media, both mainstream and popular-alternative, as some kind of anti-vaxx leader. Wonder why that is?)

He's been considered a sell-out for at least 5 years among the anti-vaxxers who consider themselves the most "informed".

Nothing to see here really. Not news really and not surprising in the least, IMO.
Consciousness, at its simplest, is awareness of a state or object either internal to oneself or in one's external environment.

AI research is centered on implementing human thinking patterns in machines. While human thought processes can be replicated, claiming that consciousness and energy awareness cannot be similarly emulated in machines does not seem like a reasonable argument.
Also agree.

Relied on gitk heavily when first started using git. People used to SVN and such will find git unfamiliar and scary.

Once I understood it as a series of revisions where even branches have little meaning, I never used gitk again…

The command line is actually very good if one gets in the habit of using something like “git log -oneline —reverse —no-merges origin/main..HEAD” to see where they are.

You're passing over the key word "entirety." It is beyond our ability to understand the entirety of how our actions affect our own individual selves. How can we understand the entirety of how our actions affect dozens, hundreds or thousands of people every day. I would not trust someone who thought they only needed a dash of empathy to have this much insight.
I applaud this for the sheer heroism involved in hacking one of these damn things. For those who've never worked in a wet lab, imagine doing science with 12 different printers.
Anything a single human can do, reasoning wise, AI will eventually be able to do.

Anything emerging out of a collective of humans interacting and reasoning (or interacting without reasoning or flawed reasoning) the AIs (plural) will eventually be able to do.

Only thing is machine kind does not need sleep, does not get tired, etc, so it will fail to fully emulate human behavior, with all the pros and cons of that for us to benefit from and deal with.

Both can be true: planned obsolescence is real, but building things to last is difficult too.

IMO the durability problems in early generations of products tend to be "real", because there are still real engineering problems that aren't understood, and there isn't (generally) a super limited market. Once the engineering problems are solved and the market is fully saturated, there is suddenly an incentive to add planned obsolescence. I don't have any data to back up this claim though.

To get decent prices on solar panels you have to pick up from a local supplier (which at least here in the US is difficult because they cater primarily to professional installers); they're just too expensive to ship. Even then around here the cheapest panels are going to run at least ~$0.35/W, although you might be able to find used ones for less.

Batteries are a little easier. For used in the US I'd take a look at https://batteryhookup.com/
Why would they announce something like this, I find it so strange that the US Gov likes to announce every move they make to what most of America considers their adversaries. If it is not just disinformation, it is troubling.

When they're talking about 16-24 year olds, I think having familiarity with what seems to be some kind of culturally driven generational implosion that occurs and starts before working age is pertinent. The stuff I'm referring to keeps starting younger but is by no means some elementary school phase, and has been going on for at least a decade in the sense that it was starting before pandemic times and seemed accelerated but it. And I don't think the factors that lead to it are particularly bound by national borders.

Most conglomerates have one product or service that that generates all the revenue and everything else is a half-heated attempt to diversify. Metrics will all be based on the primary revenue source, often without any real relation to the product or service at hand, so there's no real chance for any of them to take off.

From what I can tell, some intellectual circles would like solarpunk to be “Communism with solar panels”, which I find uninspiring. I also find that some thinkers in this movement have misguided notions on social justice (like open border policies), which I worry will result in the same cultural pushback we’re currently observing. I think political extremism is the root cause for why any futurist vision turns dystopian.
