People living in shared spaces. If you burn down your house in a village, there's a good chance this can be stopped before it reaches your neighbor's a few hundred meters away. If you burn down your apartment, there are now multiple neighbors without a home.
>With a 2.5 trillion dollar tax cut...

So the idea is that this will be reinvested, leading to more productivity and job, which is a more sustainable way of getting rid of debt.

If you tax the rich, chances are that their business will cut spending, lay off people and increase unemployment. So while "Tax the rich" looks impressive if you are looking only superficially, it is not very sustainable.
I think for the purposes of a third-party system, the ease of embedding is pretty much a question of whether or not it’s already embedded.
When five years ago thieves broke into my sons' class locker room, they stole all android phones and cash but didn't bother to take iphones. So yes it works or at least it did back then.
The calculation about whether to repair something or not usually hinges around labor and material costs vs replacement cost. The more difficult something is to repair, and the more expensive the components are, the less like it is to be repaired.

It's probably also true that high turnover of goods across brands due to early replacement allows for slimmer margins and higher yields, and hence lower cost of purchase. So on the other extreme, make things break more often and sell them cheaper and more often, which seems to be the status quo.

The economic problem to solve, then, is how to encourage brands to increase the durability of their goods. There are some review publications that perform stress-testing, but few keep metrics on long-term durability in a real-world setting. At a minimum, I check consumer review sites before I buy just to avoid the worst brands, and there you do see some people coming back after a few years to leave a warning to other people. And perhaps this kind of feedback has some effect.

Hopefully people start prizing 'dumb' products, and start leaving bad reviews on products that rely on an internet connection, when they're left stranded after the connection drops out.
LLMs are really great for summarizing these kinds of stories.

The graph on page 17 tracks the historical costs and shows a massive blip for the top of the price range over the last two years, even as the low end continues the trend of dropping lower.

It's really only that last couple of years top end that lets the comparison to gas prices stand. Without it, the document clearly shows that building new solar is as cheap as buying the gas to burn in an existing gas plant.

I think Lazard cost estimated have always been US specific, though I didn't see that spelled out explicitly at a glance.
My prediction: we'll be arguing about what AGI actually is... Forever.
I would actually look at EU countries? Maybe if you feel like your country of origin is too much of a backwater, sure, look further, but as long as you are within EU, university courses come between 1k and 5k/semester? Which, even with the more expensive option, you are well below 60k.

And - you probably are too off path for "I am going to pick school for the prestige credentials", you already have 8 years of SWE in your CV, it is fine if your uni will be something random in Europe that works under Bologna Process.

So - focus on schools that seem to be teaching well - or possibly, if you have becomming an academic in your sights, ones that would support that well. Also, I have several friends in their 30's and 40's doing university courses targeted at working people - they have weekend courses every other weekend and otherwise self study. They will end up with proper diploma and everything.
There is a very big risk difference between a upstream package like XZ and running random application with brew or god forbid zsh auto update.

>Do Linux users think about this?

Yes that's why i avoid packages not in the official distro repositories and where possible further minimize risks by using additional security layer such as sandboxing (flatpak and firejail), mandatory access control (Apparmor or SELinux), virtualization (KVM/Qemu) and application firewalls (Opensnitch).
When I use Brave it's so I don't have to see ads.

I'd like to play devil's advocate for a minute and ask a question:

Does anyone know exactly what the Bosch service sends the dishwasher?

While I agree that connecting a dishwasher to the Internet should not be necessary, it does open the door to an interesting scenario if what gets sent to the dishwasher is not a command to run a mode but an actual program to control the dishwasher. In theory that would mean that Bosch could alter the programs that get sent to improve the dishwasher over time.

On a dishwasher with no connectivity the modes simply are what they are from the factory. But on a connected dishwasher if the Bosch engineers figure out that when in ECO mode using every third sprayer saves water while not altering the cleaning performance expected of that mode, they can update the payload and make the dishwasher you already have even more efficient. They could also in theory create a whole library of modes for specific use cases or scenarios (All glass, hard water, etc.)

Of course, this has potential drawbacks as well. They could change a mode and alter behavior you expect, and it could potentially be a hacker's playground, but if done well it could be a net positive.
I really, really don't want to this to become the norm.

Op has made a nice looking site - but I absolutely hate the idea of having to film myself.

It's also worth remembering peoples biases (to be plain racism and sexism); many studies show that these level out when you remove the need for people to have names on their job applications.

By having videos you are going to turbo charge this.

Sorry op, but this this is a hard no. This kind of site should be text only.
Depends. Sometimes a one-liner or a reference to a ticket is enough.

There are times when I make a one-line change and write a paragraph or two explaining why it had to be done. But these kinds of things often drown in the noise of a dozen other changes. If that one was important enough, I will reference it in an ongoing discussion or documentation, or at least include "read below:" on the first line.

I usually see people include a more elaborate commentary with the pull request. If the changeset is good but the series of individual commits is a bit messy, just merge by squashing.

(Also: this comment is meta.)
> Teaching is also not only content. It's pacing and sequencing. As a teacher you're constantly learning what works and what doesn't just by applying your craft.

I'm surprised you're allowed to do that in the first place. I'm not a teacher, but my impression of school systems in the West (and first-hand experience in Poland), is that standardized testing, standardized everything, and whiny parents, pretty much force the teachers to teach to specific, detailed curriculum, with little room for any experimentation in approaches.

The little teaching I did, was on the private side (courses in computer use, 2D graphics authoring, and similar), so it was up to me to make it work - I didn't have a curriculum I was mandated to follow.

> I can only speak for Australia, but here "teaching from the textbook" is highly frowned upon.

Even more surprised by this. Positively surprised.

Over here, the material changes yearly, too. But it's not the teachers changing it - it's the textbook authors moving some things around, to force parents to buy new books each year instead of reusing the ones they have (or getting them from second-hand sources); the changes are made specifically to make life miserable for a teacher who allows multiple editions of the book in class, and thus using the teacher as proxy to pressure the parents.

Needless to say, this makes me extremely skeptical about any year-on-year curriculum changes, particularly when they involve students/parents paying for the same thing multiple times.
In India they will have been listing the fathers contact for exactly the reasons you should not have their fathers contact.
What you said struck me:

> It doesn't surprise me though, most of the people working on this are the same that had been promising self-driving cars.

Where did you pick that up? That's just pure hallucination (ironically). Also what are you implying, that Tesla made LLM now? If I have to guess their amount of contribution to LLM it'd be way closer to 0 than 'most'.

It's one of those things that is so easy to say but has no actual truth.

Granted, I'm not the target audience of your commit messages, but they tell me very little about what happens.

> Add characters

I can probably tell from the code that that's what's happening. But what requirements drove these particular characters?

> Remove old character

What makes it old? How would I recognise an old character in the future?

> Show male in editor

Why did male not show before? Was there a bug or a partially implemented feature?

> Fix recolor for female, clean up files

What does it mean to "fix recolor"? And even worse, what is "clean up files"? What requirements drove this file cleaning? Why were the files unclean in the first place?

etc. Commit messages in the style of "fix X" or "add Y" or "remove Z" or "nondescript action on W" are the bane of my existence. They seem so meaningful but they don't tell me anything when I'm trying to trace why a particular bug was introduced – or whether it's even a bug in the first place.
That's why after scrolling I took it to Claude with the command: "Distill all of the novel insights and actionables in this."
No one is taking credit, but no one is giving credit either, which is nearly the same.

Also, to your second point, when you (speaking of any regular person) put in the number of hours, it might not be valuable. When the domain expert puts in the same number of hours, it might be very valuable.
nit: the author proposes "short descriptions" like "fix null pointer exception in payment module" and "refactor data processing pipeline", however "fix" and "refactor" are already in the "type" part of the commit message. Possibly, "payment module" and "data processing pipeline" can (should?) be extracted from the "scope" element. The characters left over after the type and scope can be used smarter.

If you don't want to live in that society, move somewhere else. That's your free choice, too, but I counsel against it. Are you directly choosing to help maintain roads, and hospitals, and everything else that helps society function? No, but your taxes are.

> Is your soul in danger because you own a laptop, or is there more nuance to this issue than you're suggesting?

Nuance is lost on you, my friend.

If you think that the poor should just be left to their own devices, then you're bound to learn a painful lesson or three in this life. Those with no compassion should be prepared to deal with those who have no compassion for them.

Mayhaps you won't realize this until you are left with no other options but enduring the pain of being under the power of people who have no concern for your well-being. I hope you have a kinder fate than that, but you shall reap what you sow, my friend, as we all do, in time.

I am explaining these things for your benefit, not mine. You should reach beyond your current perspective and realize that I am only here for your benefit.

We love you, and only want you to be happy, too.
> In fact, your platform is broken, since its focus on visual selling is the same bias as having photos on a resume.

I guess it helps the conventionally attractive people, because from their perspective they're suddenly doing better thanks to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo_effect

Not entirely unlike someone having a "personal brand", a following on social media, some content that they create on YouTube or wherever, vs someone who just has a document with some impressive sounding projects within past orgs.
The impact can only be measured by how it negatively affects one's living standards or societal participation, both of which can be attended to by society-at-large by making society the problem, not the person. Though it's interesting to see, in the OP, an AI solution to facilitate executive functioning. And perhaps AI will be what liberates many people from the difficult and unnatural requirements that are imposed by modern lifestyles.
Reject commit message suggestions

When working on large software projects, commit messages that follow
the format suggested by the author rarely provide additional value.
Having commits prefixed by "chore:" or "docs(ui):" aren't that useful.
Instead, some of those 50 characters can be used for more descriptive
titles. Commit messages are often the best and only context available
when bisecting a bug, so bullet points only really make sense when
making a list. Prose works just fine.

Writing styles vary across contributors but it's much more useful to
get *anything* from someone in their preferred format than nothing at
all because they are frustrated with rules. Some committers do have a
special "committer voice" that they use when describing complex changes
in a commit message. For example, the text here is slightly abridged
and focuses less on the first person than what is typically expected.
This evolves naturally from writing these.

Finally, commit comments definitely should have jokes in them. This is
actually more critical than wrapping them at 72 characters.
I rarely read the commit messages.
It's often faster to just read the code than an obscure description, I'd rather have a small sentence that summarizes what the diff is doing than a technical paper explaining every change in the commit. I don't read pass the title.
I'll just throw in that the Home Connect app comes at 700 MB. Why?!
With the main difference being that you don't get an actually usable visual diff for free but instead have to buy those from third party vendors to make any use out of the manual diffs.
Veritassium's video about it helped me a lot with understanding this idea:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeQX2HjkcNo
These example commits seem like pretty bad commit messages to me. They are just a summery of the changes (something a motivated reader can rediscover by reading the diff), while leaving out the why, which will be lost to history if not documented.
The idea of a manufacturer updating my appliance to be "more efficient" is fine, but updates should only be applied at my discretion and we already have several mechanisms for this that don't involve an always-on internet connection.

If they really want firmware updates for their dishwasher, they should give it Bluetooth or a USB port enabled by a special button combination and call it a day.
But it becomes all so elusive when you grow older. I remember remembering moments before I could speak or walk, but I think those memories were clearer when I was a little kid (I'm 40 now). Too bad I didn't write them down back then. Things like trying to utter a word but parents giving up before I could produce the sound, or using a baby walker (those were a thing in the late 80s). I think I have a picture in my mind of a scene where my little brother was just born and I was 1 year old, but my mother says it couldn't have happened like that, so it might be my memory or hers that's playing tricks. But for some memories it's also hard for me to determine whether they are confabulations from stories I've heard and pictures I've seen, or happened later than I think, eg. at age 5-6 instead of 2-3.
You know very well this is not what online connectivity is for. No need to play Devil's advocate, he's been found guilty and sentenced long ago.
The weird thing about eco modes is that they often don’t use less water or power. I live off grid, and just as a function of my setup I know exactly what consumes what. My Bosch dishwasher, on a normal 70C dish cycle, uses about 4.5L of water and 1.6kWh. On eco mode, it uses 8L of water, and 1.8kWh. Takes twice as long though.

Similar with my AEG washer - a 40 degree cotton wash uses marginally more water than a 40 degree eco wash, but less power - and is 25% quicker.

Honestly, it’s not clear what the economy is supposed to be. Intensity of demand? Except on each appliance the heater runs at the same rated wattage when it’s heating - just different patterns of usage on eco mode, more off and on.
I understand (and even agree to) the general sentiment, but it seems there would be a more constructive way to express this.
I have a rule regarding AI created content: if you can't be arsed to write it, I can't be arsed to read it.

A good presentation is INFINITELY better than a mediocre one. I'm sure we've all seen really good slides before, the kind created to explicitly go along with a talk or a lesson, that have a minimum of extra text for the presenter to read at a slightly different speed than you are reading internally, etc. These lessons are memorable, as is the content. Mediocre presentations? I've been through hundreds, and I cannot remember a one.

AI Generated slides are almost exclusively going to be able to create only one of these kinds of presentation, because creating a GOOD one requires a deep understanding of the matter, a cohesive plan and direction for the talk to go, and the ability to imbue your personality into the slides as well, so they're complimentary to the lesson.

I know teachers are swamped with too much work and not enough time to do it in, but this feels like the classic Technologists curse - seeing a social issue and immediately reaching for a technological answer.

I mean, what if the answer is fighting to get more teachers with more time available to prepare their classroom materials, not tools to help them accept the status quo, and that empower those that are working to keep teachers underpaid and overworked?
This is a great reminder that even very skilled, experienced, security-conscious people that you might think could never fall for this sort of thing can and do fall for this sort of thing.

Kudos to Troy for his response so far and what I'm sure will be further information forthcoming.
>To go back to Chevron, you have to look beyond the US and understand that for anyone else anywhere else in the world, the idea of the courts deferring in their interpretation of the law to executive agencies is just ridiculous

My interpretation is difficult and complex domain specific regulation were handled by agency experts, and not lawyers. It is now up to congress to detail very specifically this potentially difficult regulation and to quickly adjust when research changes.

Is my interpretation incorrect? Since to me this current approach sounds terrible, inflexibly and set-up to fail.
It’s nothing to do with my liking or disliking them. Maybe try formulating an argument that doesn’t have the word “you” in it.
This is surely the ultimate reminder that you, yes you - wise, knowledgeable and aware person - can get phished.

Bravo Troy for the exemplar response to the situation.
They are incredibly helpful when you are trying to find where a bug was introduced, and trying to figure out why some piece of code is the way it is.
The free preprint of the research paper:

https://arxiv.org/abs/2408.13640
Well, that's true on the face of it. But, at least where I live, this service can be hit-and-miss. The retailer of both my dishwasher and washing machine provided this service, and both times it was a shoddy job.

On the dishwasher, they had a hard time routing the hoses properly, so the unit was sticking out something like 3 cm from under the furniture. I had to redo it myself.

On the washing machine, they routed one of the pipes with too narrow an angle, so that the water wouldn't come out. Fortunately, to the point of this post, the machine was "smart" enough to figure this out and complain about it (via a code on its display).
Even 4-bit is fine.

To be more precise, it's not that there's no decrease in quality, it's that with the RAM savings you can fit a much better model. E.g. with LLaMA, if you start with 70b and increasingly quantize, you'll still get considerably better performance at 3 bit than LLaMA 33b running at 8bit.
> is that it discourages from collecting superfluous data

Wouldn't that require some kind of actual policing? Here (in Norway) at least, police does not use any of their time trying to access random data systems looking for personal info stored in violation with GDPR. This is not something anyone fears, so as long as you say you are OK, you are OK.

> Big companies have a real incentive to act.

The company I worked for was almost as big as they come here in Norway (handled extremely sensitive personal information also). We are full of clown tech companies here as well (just like your 'Epic Health Journals' etc.). These kind of companies cannot comply with these types of rules, they cannot even make their own systems work properly.

The most excellent steak can be ruined by an amateur chef easily.

I agree with your point on the spin, although I wonder if the Signal angle is the only thing even republicans can agree with to be kinda bad, given that even the most egregious reports on the current administration don’t really cause as much as a raised brow there. So to make it a story that doesn’t just resonate in the liberal echo chamber, include something despicable to both camps.
For the past couple of years I have tried to spend a couple of hours a week volunteering at the local city farm. [0]

It’s a fantastic community project, with very capable professional people keeping things running, but most of the physical work done by volunteers who drop in to put in an hour of digging, picking (or in my case bee-keeping).

It’s a productive, diverse farm. Chickens, goats, lots of fruit, vegetables. And a place for wildlife.

Not an option for everyone. But if you have the same urge, go and look and see if there’s anything similar.
