Yes in theory and that's Taiwan's best bet. But the US would never go along with that because guarding Taiwan's democracy is not the main objective even as it is the main talking point. The main objective is US interests, which are not served by nuclear proliferation or by losing Taiwan as either a bargaining chip to extract concessions, or a chess piece in a proxy war to weaken China, the main rival to US global dominance. Taiwan's value as a bargaining chip or as an acceptable battleground to both sides for a controlled conflict, is unfortunately greater than it's value as a democracy
> You're conflating unnecessary panics, with how to handle panics.

I don't think so. If I have to handle a panic, because otherwise my program no longer works, one of 2 things is true in the vast majority of cases:

- There is something seriously wrong with the program or its environment, causing it to panic

- There is something in the program issueing a panic when really it should return an error

In short: there should be no need to "handle panics"

Panics are irrecoverable conditions where its preferable for the program to crash rather than continue. If code panicks for any other reason, thats, in my opinion, wrong, and should be fixed. Panics are not the equivalent to exceptions, and error returns exist for a reason.

People who don't like that paradigm can always use a language that uses the exception-paradigm.
It seems like it's perhaps the natural progression of an extreme sense of individualism. In an age where individual choice is elevated to the highest level possible, it naturally follows that someone should have the option to end their lives whenever they want.

I think this view falls short because it seems to count the chances of someone making an uninformed mistake as an acceptable consequence of preserving individual choice. Personally, I can't agree with this view. I often state that my desire is to protect and preserve life when it comes to suicide and am met with backlash over "inserting myself into other people's lives." When the reality is I've been close to several suicides (due to my community role) where the general community consensus was that the person was dealing with a complex mental health issue and the medical system more or less failed them.

I don't propose to win anybody to my side, but I think the whole topic requires a lot of nuance and shouldn't be simplified.
> Also: People (especially kids, students, etc) who want to make music but don't have the technical expertise to (yet?).

But fuck all the people who have a career teaching them those skills as a part of a thousands-year long artistic tradition whose value isn't solely defined by the exchange of currency for lessons, but in that it subsidizes those artists' work which goes unpaid and furthers human experience.

It's wonderful techies with a surface level knowledge of the arts are cannibalizing the entire supply chain and marketplace so they can make a buck off the AI craze.

The barrier to entry is already zero. AI lowers the ceiling, not the floor.
China has a fig leaf of a democracy. It meets the simplest definition of a democracy, the citizens do get to vote on something. Compared to most of the developed world, it's a far cry from a liberal democracy that allows for dissenting positions and parties. China's flavor of governing is objectively neither good nor bad (they have managed to become a superpower after all) but it's nothing like the democracies of the West.
All moral reasoning can be boiled down to "my religion told me to", assuming a comprehensive enough definition of religion. For example, an atheist humanist may argue that certain actions are immoral because they are harmful to human beings. The implicit religion behind that reasoning is that harm (and certain types of harm) is immoral. That's a religious statement, one that cannot be proved with the scientific method. It's a statement of moral axioms, and not all people share the exact same moral axioms.

> There are many people who have tried suicide and were saved and have regretted their earlier decision to kill themselves.

One could argue that had they been dead they wouldn't even feel regrets.

> The situation can be reversed where the disorder is dealt with and the suicidal tendencies end.

Although the suicidal tendencies could end is there a single psy disorder that people can really recover from? I understand people get treated but it is mostly about alleviating the symptoms and consequences more than healing, which often is realized through the use of some powerful meds that really make that person disappear and be more a shadow of themselves. I never heard about someone being cured from bipolar disorder or schizophrenia for example.

To say that Russia is destabilising the US basically takes the agency of the US out of the equation. Makes the US (the so-called greatest country in the world, so-called leaders of the free world) unaccountable for its own actions.

The US is destabilising itself with the help of Russia.
I'll believe it when I see it, hopefuly we never have to. 9/11 was almost 25 years ago--an entire generation. A lot has changed since then. Today, the public is softer, fatter, less healthy, less sane, lonelier, more individualistic and isolated from each other, more addicted to drugs, more addicted to phones, chronically online, narcissistic, and self-obsessed than they were in 2001. And when it comes to playing well with other people they are less tolerant, angrier, more belligerent, less capable of cooperating, defiant against even minor sacrifices that might help others... We have this "in it for ourselves" religion that wasn't as strong in 2001. I don't think even a land invasion by a foreign aggressor could unify us anymore.

That is true today, but back in 2005 when the Xbox 360 launched we didn't have every government buying up security vulnerabilities by the truckload. The market for zero-days didn't really get established until the early 2010s when the 360 was on its way out. Every contemporary competitor to the Xbox 360 got hacked within its commercial lifespan, due to having comically awful security practices. Microsoft certainly was, at the time, 'better' than Sony or Nintendo; but the task they were doing was just plain impossible.

A game console is, effectively, a Point of Presence[0] for a DRM vendor. It's job is to tie the owner's hands so that they don't copy games, and that they don't buy games from competing companies. This is an incredibly difficult, if not impossible task. In contrast, while the iPhone's security also does DRM and developer lockout; their main concern is keeping you from getting hacked by nation states. Those are certainly more sophisticated and well-financed attackers; but they (usually) don't have physical access to or ownership over what you're trying to protect.

1) Hysteria is a human emotion, not exclusive to females. To imply that it is certainly verges on misogyny.

2) If you knew what the Doctrine of Fascism was then you wouldn’t respond as you did. It contains the definition of fascism by the two figures that brought it to fame, one of whom was called “the godfather of fascism”.

3) Hitler did not salute that way and Musk did not make a Nazi salute.

4) I didn’t call you a baby, but I am having to baby you through basic knowledge. “To baby” is a verb, not an adjective.

I got my company into the beta of DAX Copilot, and it's ok. It's not fabulous. After a year only a third of doctors were still using it. We switched to another product that works better for our providers, but also costs a fifth as much as Dragon. Dragon Copilot is MASSIVELY overpriced, and it is not the premier healthcare note summary product now.
(appreciate the background, but fyi I'm very familiar with the theory of computation)

I may have misunderstood what you meant when I replied.

I agree with basically everything you have written here in spirit, but I don't think "oops an infinity snuck in" is really a useful way to think about computability. There are lots of infinities that can be tamed by Turing machines, by a program that computes membership, for instance. The even numbers are a trivial example. The infinities of computation are asymptotic, not absolute - a Turing machine that solves a decision problem may use unbounded space as a function of input size, but this is not the same thing as literally using an infinite amount of space.

Restricting to finite tapes is pointless from a mathematical point of view, precisely because everything becomes computable in finite time/space.

That’s a common theme throughout the history that the majority calls secretive sects and/or heterodox groups, or otherwise outsiders - “devil worshippers” or that they performing secret sex orgies, and stuff like this.

BTW: there is a Bedouin tribe village not far from me, which accused by other local Arabs of being devil worshipers just because they’re migrated from Sudan to Israel couple hundreds of years later than other Arabized tribes (their accusers).

I tried Cruise in Austin, and it was nothing more than a curiosity. What should have been a ten minute ride took almost forty minutes because the car took a circuitous route with lots of backtracking, presumably because the cars were programmed to stay away from certain intersections and avoid left turns. It was my first time in a self-driving car, so the cool factor was definitely there, but it was far from being a real product.

I've been using ipinfo.io now for several years and have been very pleased with them.

You can `curl https://ipinfo.io/` and get a JSON blob back with info on your current IP. If you pass an IP explicitly you can get info back on it, for example `curl https://ipinfo.io/104.26.7.98`. Easy to combine with jq also for use in scripts: `curl https://ipinfo.io/104.26.7.98 | jq -r '.ip'`

For personal use it's free, and they have reasonable pricing for large volume. No affiliation on my part, just a happy user.

If you think Chernobyl was orchestrated by the KGB, then yes. Sadly, I knew right away were this was heading. Ironically, Russia is more involved in pushing this false narrative than they were ever involved in the anti-nuclear power movement. And it only works by twisting facts. The Soviet Union tried to bolster the anti-nuclear arms movement, emphasize on arms, to stop the Americans from stationing nuclear weapons in Europe, which worried the Soviet leaders greatly - how Europe generates electricity was none of their worry. Lastly, nuclear disarmament is neither a KGB invention nor a KGB success.
I honestly don’t get the impression that Trump is that strategic. He also usually doesn’t care if something is right or wrong, but only whether it supports his interests.

Trains and busses are far denser than cars, and that's part of the appeal. You can move more people around with less space needed.

"Train brain" is working just fine for China and Japan, I think it would work great in the US. Why can't I get on a train from Columbus to go to Philly? I should be able to.
A thing we could do is tax everyone who uses or makes software and give the money to people who used to use paper processes. For example, we could pay DMV workers 10x what they currently make by placing a small $1k tax on everyone in tech in the US.

You are missing the mass destruction of assets of the wealthy in WWII and the increase in bargaining power of labour in the post-war years (perhaps driven by loss of life/injury for those of a working age). The post-war public sentiment, at least in the UK, was that the lower orders of society had fought the most and suffered the most, and there was an appetite for a new social contract that saw Churchill voted out from office and gave rise to the National Health Service, etc.

Intellectual property isn't real. It's a fiction we constructed to try to control expression in order to allow extraction of profit from ideas. We had to keep exceptions like expiration and "fair use" to make it not absurd and obviously self-contradictory.

All LLMs are doing is shuffling around the roles to bring light to an underlying contradiction. Yes they are profiting off of unpaid labor, but what that actually means is the models themselves should be "property" of everyone just as the training data should be.

I don't work as a musician so it's nothing to do with job security -- I think that using artists' output without their consent in order to train a soulless AI model for some tech middleman to profit from is repugnant, and the cheap rhetoric about democratizing music and "bringing music to the masses!" adds insult to injury. I can guarantee if OP's intellectual property was violated in this project, like somebody ripping off their model or trademark, they'd be suing, but they conveniently handwave away mass scale IP theft when it comes to musicians.

The paper you linked is absolutely trash. The actual "meat" of the article is only two pages, and contains nothing of substance, presumably because the authors themselves admit it's "secondary research where we have collected the data from IEEE Xplore and Wikipedia". It also contains some hilariously bad takes like that Android "is not fully stable because as android is free ware". As for the claim that it has less effective sandboxing, that's just a claim taken at face value from an article from 2014 and is no way indicative of how secure iOS or Android is today.
