There's no "green revolution" coming, just the powers that be taxing us, normal citizens, to the hell and the back if we'd still want to hang on to our gasoline-powered cars, which taxing policies will for sure bring about the revolution of people choosing to not travel anymore, because too expensive. That's the revolution that they're now putting in place.

Also, bonus points to the "liberals" (including many of the techies in here) helping bring forward guys like Musk, they did that by purchasing and aggressively marketing for his vehicles, they've actually empowered him and brought him into his actual position of power.

Before when my children were too young for iPhones, they loved Buffalo Wild Wings because they gave all the kids devices to play with. I am surprised Bill Burr did not address this phenomenon at all.

I have allergy, asthma, colitis ulcerosa. I'm allergic to hay, pollen of trees and grasses, dust mites, cat saliva, etc. I've lived in countryside till my 20s, then moved to a big city.

My allergies got better when I moved to a city (probably because there's less allergens), but when I return to the countryside it's still bad (usually it's the worst for the first few days). At least it's not as bad as when I was young (I usually spent a few weeks each year at hospital because of asthma befoer I got 18).

When it comes to air pollution - I grew up during communism in Poland - we had asbestos roof (eternit), everybody was heating their homes with dirtiest and cheapest coal during the winter, and A LOT of people smoked like locomotives. It changed slowly over time.

IMHO there's way too many factors to reduce this to one factor (like sterile environment early on). It probably helps not to have it, but it's not a simple 1-1 relationship.

That’s an example of what your code could look like. For example, you might have a Rails app with a Document model and have added search to that model via Searchkick. Then this code is called by the library to execute a search.

Not a problem in these parts I don't think, except possibly on old industrial lots and similar. Though as a child I did used to live in a brownfield area that was in the middle of development – there was a lot of very contaminated earth and other hazardous things that of course invited kids to explore. Thankfully I was already past the dirt-eating phase.
For a long time I was sort of baffled by the (bad) level-of-fitness and restedness metrics I was getting in a couple of popular apps.

At some point I decided to figure out what the deal was with it, and I saw that their calculations were based on resting heart rate, but because I only ever wear my Garmin running watch during actual runs, it was inferring my RHR from the lowest HR it picked up before or after my run, and reporting to every connected app that mine was like 120bpm (my real RHR is more like 50bpm). Everything was seemingly happy to just accept the garbage data and plug it into their formulas to produce garbage output. Really they probably should have just told me to see a doctor if they actually believed I had a 120bpm resting heart rate!

After that I turned off all of the automated metrics—it was a big realization about how easily messed up they can get (even if you wear your watch most of the day, you might have a fairly different RHR based on whether or not you sleep with it on). I can see this exact situation causing someone a lot of undue anxiety.
Probably because translating natural language into logic form isn't very easy, and also the point where this approach breaks down.
It's either not occupied, it's part of Israel and Israel subjugates the Palestinians to an apartheid rule (with a big part of their lives controlled by Israel, included where they can move, work, live, and different laws applied to them), and harassed by colonists. Or it's Palestine and Israel is occupying it.

In any case the UN and the ICJ think it's occupied territory, and the colonies are a war crime.
The media at the time certainly disagreed: you were a "Chinese spy" if you doubted the wisdom of this arrest. Earlier, Chretien was called a traitor for not joining the war in Iraq (though history would show the wisdom of this decision later).

I do this as well.

There was an article about Sam Altman that stated that ex/other OAI employees called him some bad_names and that he was a psychopath...

So I had GPT take on the role of an NSA cybersecurity and crypto profiler and read the thread and the article and do a profile dossier of Altman and have it cite sources...

And it posted a great list of the deep psychology and other books it used to make its claims

Which basically was that Altman is a deep opportunist and showed certain psychopathological tendencies.

Frankly - the statement wasn't as interesting of how it cited the expert sources and the books it used in the analysis.

however, after this OAIs newer models were less capable of doing this type of report, which was interesting.
On a recent podcast, I believe the founder said that at 6 miles (close to your 30k well) that this technology could be used anywhere. However, I think they could only get 3-4 mile wells at this point.
So if we already have the ability to drill 6 miles with conventional tech, why not just do geothermal with conventional drilling?

Hey, please tell me how my comment was bad in some way instead of just downvoting. It was a genuine question if anyone might have insight.
No, we wouldn’t have moved. The two main reasons back during IE6 times were tabs, and as a web developer: debugging. Firebug was something which was way ahead of everything else.
I tried Sidebery for a couple of months off the back of multiple recommendations and while it has some decent features, I found it surprisingly lacking in terms of basic features like "close multiple tabs". I also found it regularly would semi-regularly prevent me from clicking on tabs which was frustrating until I restarted the extension or Firefox.

In the end I found good old Tree Style Tabs was better. I just wish it had an easier UX for creating named tab groups.
The fact that the Mozilla CEO makes over $6,000,000.00 per year is a complete betrayal of what Firefox was. How could anyone justify donating to Firefox knowing that so much of their money would be going to this one person?
Are you sure? It seemed to say that it would manually compile, but that the author hadn't automated it because they didn't know CMake well enough.

If Google has to sell Chrome what stops another buyer from being even more profit maximizing then Google. What if a private equity firm like Silver Lake buys it?

Some will say well the free market will do its thing and people will just switch. The problem is Chrome has a 60-70% market share. And like it or not anyone that is a professional developer will be at the mercy of this new buyer because like them or not they will own 60%+ browser market share overnight.

Anyone who was old enough to remember what web development was in the 2000s and early 2010s remembers that was not a smooth or enjoyable transition going from IE to Firefox to Chrome. I remember those years it was the Dark Ages of desktop internet browsing.
I agree, that’s why I say tax the right things and subsidize the right things.
Tabloid is a form factor for a newspaper - roughly defined as 'half of a broadsheet' - and not directly related to the content of the publication. It got a bad reputation because lots of trashy publications are published in this form factor but this is not its defining characteristic.

Aside from that Wikipedia is not a good source to decide whether a publication is to be trusted due to its heavy political bias. The New York Post has a conservative bias while (English-language) Wikipedia has a heavy 'progressive´ bias as is reflected by its list of what they consider to be 'reliable/perennial sources' [1] which closely resembles a political litmus test.

Your wife lost the genetic lottery. That doesn't mean you did anything wrong, or could've done anything better. When faced with the choice between "a higher chance of allergies" and "starving your son to death", you did the right thing if your son survived.

I think society as a whole would benefit from (government supported, modern takes on) wet nursing facilities so that every parent has access to natural breast milk, but the unfortunate fact is that today many parents simply don't.

Advice like this is aimed more at mothers who do have milk production but are considering formula because of the incredible drain breastfeeding puts on the body. Formula may still be the better option (what good is breastfeeding when the mother suffers so bad that it impacts the parents' ability to take care of their child?), but for those lucky enough not to suffer too much from breastfeeding, knowing the health benefits may change their minds, or decrease or delay the use of formula for just a little longer.

As for what will happen to your son: who knows, it's all probabilities. You can't connect a specific allergy to a decision. Some breastfed kids get allergies, some formula kids grow up without any. All these statistics state is that probabilities are a bit more favourable across millions of babies when more of them are breastfed. He'll probably be fine, and if he won't be, it's not your fault or anyone else's.
I wish people at my cccurent company would understand this. Right now even bringing what you think is good idea to improve project in any way seems like kind of like dragging yourself through barbed wire.
Whole company seems to be built around group of 10 people and if you idea differs from what they think they, in best case scenario, thet will just simply ignore you. On better days you will get lengthy discussion that will lead to exactly nothing. On worst days they will just simply make fun of you or say something like 'this is just wrong' without going into details what is wrong exactly.

Does your brain really tell you it’s more likely that 90% of people in the field are ignorant, rather than old expert systems were brittle, couldn't learn from data, required extensive manual knowledge editing, and couldn't generalize?

I like the idea of using a Firefox fork, but one thing in particular keeps me tied to Firefox - my Firefox account and the sync feature.

I make heavy use of bookmarks and switch between devices frequently. Manually keeping those synced would be a bit of a nightmare.

Assuming that Firefox forks can use Firefox extensions, I imagine I could get around this problem by using some kind of bookmark extension. I don't know what options are available for that, though.
>Advertising is a monetization modal. That's like saying that resteraunts are just credit card swiping businesses.

I think this is an important article to read. If we allow ourselves to be completely mesmerised by the A story of politics we (as a people, not necessarily individually) lose the sense of power and responsibility that allows us to meaningfully shape our society.

A good professor convinced me hydrogen was a dead end some years ago.

But to be fair busses and trains and other public transit that does fixed routes every day is the perfect bench for any clean energy drive train that needs real world testing.

Also public money should never be overly shy of coordinating with companies who are trying to in good faith to solve our climate crisis.

Some discussion on this thread about hydrogen being a poison pill promoted by oil interests which I don’t really know about.

Electric bus programs have been broadly successful and no doubt have contributed in a real way to our understanding of that technology.
I’m using Sync on LibreWolf just fine. I am interested in self hosting sync, but not there yet. I think it would be cool if someone could set up a sync server and charge a small fee for accounts. It’s all OSS and setting it up doesn’t look impossible. Just tedious.
Aren't buses with a fixed route also a great candidate for battery swap solutions? As all the buses are managed by the same company, I would be curious to know if there are any hidden issues with this approach: while an bus is riding with a battery, the replacement battery gets charged, and when necessary you just swap the battery.
The bandwidth is free within AWS, the ingress is also free

I've used it lately in the following setup

- stuff on internet push their data into my bucket => this is mostly free (you only pay s3 operations)
- on object creation, an event is fired and a lambda is spawned => this is free
- the lambda code reads the object => this is mostly free (again, you only pay s3 operations)
- the lambda process the data, trim it, repackage it, compress it => you pay for the compute
- the lambda store the resulting data somewhere else and delete the s3 object => you pay the egress

=> massive cost reduction
I think we need a bigger boot partition
I think it's more that the old expert systems (AKA flow charts) did work, but required you to already be an expert to answer every decision point.

Modern LLMs solve the huge problem of turning natural language from non-experts into the kind of question an expert system can use… 95% of the time.

95% is fantastic if you're e.g. me with GCSE grade C in biology from 25 years ago, asking a medical question. If you're already a domain expert, it sucks.

I suspect that feeding the output of an LLM into an expert system is still useful, for much the same reason that feeding code from an LLM into a compiler is useful.
US carriers haven’t charged for long distance calls for decades at least for domestic calls.

Besides with number portability, you can keep your same mobile number when you change carriers no matter what the original region was. I’ve had my same number for over 20 years and have changed carriers 5 times.
Sorry, I like Ruby, but this is nonsense. Rails apps get enormous very quickly, like apps written in every other framework. In most work you can't just declare that your world will be small, your world is as big as your problem is.
Oh, that for sure. That seems like the obvious solution I'd pick on Signal or WhatsApp, and if Apple Messages doesn't support it, it's yet another infuriating example of their "we know best" attitude.

I like Apple hardware, but try to avoid its first party apps as much as possible due to that.

> Of course, something in common with all the examples above, and with US citizens travelling to Mexico, is that you're travelling to neighbouring countries with friendly relations.

Militarily speaking, yes. But unlike the other examples, there is a huge economic difference between the US and Mexico, meaning migration flows exclusively one way. Illegal crossings are extremely common and the US has strong incentives to prevent them. It's hard to compare the US-Mexico border to any other border in the world.

I think it’s the opposite. Public money should be conservative spends on things we know work. Let the startups try the risky bets.

> grounding the system into the shared world model

before we fix certain things [..., 'corruption', Ponzi schemes, deliberate impediment of information flow to population segments and social classes, among other things, ... and a chain of command in hierarchies that are build on all that] is impossible.

Why do smart people not talk about this at all? The least engineers and smart people should do is picking these fights for real. It's just a few interest groups, not all of them. I understand a certain balance is necessary in order to keep some systems from tipping over, aka "this is humanity, silly, this is who we are", but we are far from the point of efficient friction and it's only because "smart people" like LeCun et al are not picking those fights.

How the hell do you expect to ground an ()AI in a world where elected ignorance amplifies bias and fallacies for power and profit while the literal shit is hitting all the fans via intended and unintended side effects? Any embodied AI will pretend until there is no way to deny that the smartest, brightest and the productive don't care about the system in any way but are just running algorithmically while ignoring what should not be ignored - should as in, an AI should be aligned with humanities interests and should be grounded into the shared world model.
Instead, philanthropically funded outlets may be left to do what the free market cannot.

Private philanthropy is an example of a free market transaction, just buying something that has a value not immediately in money, like respect from self or others. And routine free market transactions are how the resources for philanthropic ones are gathered. If rich capitalists are doing the funding it is capitalist funding. There seems to be a common attitude that if an act is pro social it is therefore not capitalist, since that contradicts an implicit definition.
But when later does come, it can take dev-years to fully disentangle the global state and allow code reuse. Did you gain dev-years in productivity by using it in the first place? Probably not.

If you have good reason to believe that an app will stick around for more than a year, be maintained by more than 3 people, or grow to more than 500k lines of code (sub in whatever metrics make sense to you), don't put off removing global state for later. You will regret it eventually, and it doesn't cost much to do it right the first time.

(Also, no mainstream language I'm aware of forces you to not use global state. Even Java, famed for its rigidity, has global state readily available if you really do need it.)
