Depression is not about the world. It's about your own internal state - the way your own brain is wired up. To a first approximation, "I am depressed" is a statement about a particular neuron not getting stimulated, which is only related to how your life is going in indirect ways that - like all proxies - leak a lot.

If tomorrow the greatest dream of AI was achieved, and we had a perfect benevolent AI that would shepherd humanity to comfort and safety forever, that would be just about the best outcome imaginable in material terms. But I think I'd be unhappy with it, because I derive a lot of my personal sense of worth from what I do - from what I build and for what I contribute to other people. I don't know what I would do in a world where that was no longer needed. I'm great at being helpful! I suck at being fun.

Is that healthy? Probably not. (It's actually something I'm working through at the moment, that I increasingly understand as a consequence of both personal and societal-level abuse.) But we're not all healthy creatures. We live our lives as the people we are in each moment, including the ways in which we're dumb and flawed and insecure.
I've ADHD and I'm on the spectrum. Others may differ - it's a spectrum after all- but I feel no list-only app will ever silence the drunk baboon on my shoulder constantly pulling my attention from what I'm doing.

The original report is just for ansible-vault, but comments indicate widespread effects, hence the altered title here.
In the US, the Smithsonian Institution claimed that Samuel Langley, not the Wrights, was the inventor of the airplane. His Aerodrome #6 flew nearly a mile in 1896, but this machine was not really controllable, and Langley's subsequent prototypes regressed, ending with an ignominious flop into the Potomac river on December 8, 1903, nine days before The Wrights' successful tests at Kitty Hawk.

Not coincidentally, Langley was the secretary of the Smithsonian, and in addition, his claims were promoted by Glenn Curtiss in his attempts to overthrow the Wright patents. As the dispute heated up, the Wrights loaned the flyer to the London Science Museum, where it remained until after Orville's death.
I'd say the best thing to do would be to get a keyboard you enjoyed and make sure it was compatible with iOS. The quality of instrument will hopefully keep you interested for all of the learning/playing.
Ah, that makes more sense. Thank you.
It could potentially be proven. We think it's unlikely due to cost or complexity. So, the fields default position was that most things would be low to medium assurance. Only select components would be high assurance. I hope that answers your broader question about adoption of seL4-like techniques for larger systems.

Far as past tense, I left high-assurance security when I found out Jesus died for my sins and rose again. Had to learn an entirely new life with a focus on human beings instead of tech. I'm recently considering going back into security since I spend up to 12 hours a day at work anyway (two jobs).

I should also note another reason I say past tense. Many people I learned from have died, retired, or switched focuses. The reason for the later is that there's no real market for high-assurance security. Most won't spend the money or make the tradeoffs. So, security-enhancing popular platforms while assuming they'll get hacked (and responding correctly) seemed like a better use of time. I mean, I could probably could all the high-security vendors on my hands...

I've never heard of that story (I'm also not American). If it's something that has impacted someone they know, they don't need convincing. I'm talking about the theoretical vague speculative stuff. People will care about privacy if it impacts real life events, not just some news piece about someone somewhere once, one customer from a hundred million but real people in their real lives. If that happens, then they care. If that does not happen, then they don't care about Amazon processing their voice recordings in the cloud or chat control scanning their DMs.

> Am I off base?

Yes. There is still plenty of work to be done in the OS research space. There has to be software interfaces and API's to all this new hardware.

I also think there is a lot to be learned from using micro/hybrid systems which are much more composable. e.g. Plan 9 is a great example of a hybrid system which makes use of a singular protocol, 9P, to serve all objects in the system to userspace. It is hybrid because some parts are in-kernel to avoid the overhead of system calls such as IP, and TLS. Another interesting design aspect is how the in-kernel drivers are minimal mostly acting as a 9P interface to the hardware logic. This way you A. turn a machine object like a pointer or record into a seekable file and B. secured that file using standard unix permissions and C. can easily distribute the components across machines via a network. Now you can securely push the driver logic into a userspace program. And 9p is network and architecture transparent meaning you can work across multiple machines running on Arm, x86, mips, etc. All this come out of the box.

When I go back to Linux/Unix or Windows from Plan 9 its a sad and frustrating time. They're about as flexible as igneous rock. All the features are ad-hoc bolted on in mutually incompatible ways using a myriad of protocols that all do the same thing - serve files/objects. Ugh.
Would you ever excused leftist, feminist or atheist from massive hypocrisy or fraud with "conservatives are talking with disdain about them, therefore they have no moral agency"? And being from conservative environment, things that were being said about left, feminists, democrats were widely insulting for years.

Plus, you mean, any criticism or anyone pointing out hypocrisy or frauds or lies? As in, we all need to pretend these people never do wrong, because otherwise they might turn berserk? The same people who scorn and mock frequently and regularly need to be treated with niceties they never awarded to own opponent? They are at MAGA camp, because their values are compatible with MAGA, because they don't mind any of what Trump does.

If a compliment is all that it takes for you to reject your claimed morals, you never had them. And to credit of democrats, but Musk and Trump tried to get power through that camp first. They tried to take progressive cloak to get power and again, to credit of progressives, their hypocrisy was noted. That Christian right embraced those people does not imply they are victims, they are perpetrators.
I've found meditation very useful in this regard. If you focus on observing in detail #1 type pain, you find that the #2 becomes much more managable. The technique is to get curious about the pain, ask what type it is (hot/cold/electric etc), where exactly is the pain. what shape is it? how does it change over time? It sounds counter-intuitive but by focusing on it it becomes easier to manage (because I think a lot of #2 is story and mental reactions to the pain rather than the actual pain itself and the mental reactions are self-fulfilling in a negative way).
Does it record a fixed point, or does it do something fancy like using the camera to attempt tracking the user's movement? Just curious, and I don't have access to a modern Mac. The article seems to imply that it's focusing on a fixed point.
>Rickover's methods wouldn't work anywhere outside of the Navy during the Cold War because even there they were considered draconian and extreme (and generally nutty)

What people forget is that Rickover controlled one of the largest budgets in the DoD, so there were people lining up to kiss his ass just to get a piece of that pie regardless of his behavior.
> The reason court cases against the NSA spying (and other related issues) fail is because you need to prove standing. These programs all overtly violate, amongst other things, the 4th amendment.

This is pure ignorance. If it actually sucked up everybody's data, everybody would have standing. Snowden's leaks showed that they don't, that only the phone metadata program did.

Framing this in terms of The Beginner's Guide, I think it's more like:

"I just completed a project into which I poured not just all of my time and energy, but also all of my self-worth. It was a massive success. Now I have nowhere to place my self-worth. Doing this again would be both (1) unlikely to succeed, and (2) extremely toxic, just as doing it the first time kind of was. So how do I get out of this mindset without completely destroying myself?"

Amusingly, his response to that question was to make a game about it.

Few people get rewards on that scale (and thus the chance to exit, or at least the time to think about it), but many develop similar relationships to their work (or art). An exploration of the problems in that dynamic (as in The Beginner's Guide) is therefore relevant to a lot of people.
> If the claim is the CEO ran it into the ground then the board messed up even worse by not replacing the CEO.

Can the board replace the CEO if the CEO has 49% of voting rights?
So you basically want to give effect to any claim that isn't brought to court of being brought to Court? How does that make anything better? It's going to mean more lawsuits, a waste of judicial resources, and probably moot cases if it's not even adversarial. I understand this is a layman's perspective but it seems incredibly foresighted. You seem to be of the belief that it's never the case that parties, after investigations, etc, reasonably decide not to sue, and that they didn't prior have a reasonable basis for asserting their claims outside of a lawsuit? That's just naive.
It happens a lot in creative fields. I personally get depressive after putting an album out, and I know I'm not alone in that based on discussions with other musicians. Something about being in the mode of making something for so long, and then it's just... done. When you're deeply involved in something, it changes your personality.
Yup, this is how collective security system works. It is far from perfect, but it managed to keep the World in more or less peace for pretty long time. We had wars, sometimes bloody, but still local once.

The corner stone of this system is nuclear weapons nonproliferation. This is, on one hand, unjust - why Australia cannot have its own nuclear arsenal and not be dependent on USA to give them protection? But on the other hand, though, think what would happen if we didn't have proliferation and every second African country had nukes (e.g. Yemen Houthis, Iran, Syria, Sudan, Algeria, etc.).

How Algeria would resolve, say, Algerian-Spanish their territorial dispute if Algeria had nukes and Spain did not?

This system is certainly not perfect, but it worked, we'll see if it will work in future.

As is pointed out in the article I linked elsewhere in the comments he should’ve remembered what he said about responsibility when the Thresher happened.
It feels like every country has it's own "we actually invented airplanes" story. Growing up I heard form my parents, who are from a little-talked about country, claim that their country was the one that invented airplanes.

I think it's similar to the lightbulb. The availability of certain other technologies allowed for an explosion in invention leading to many simultaneous "discoveries" of the same basic inventions. In the US it seems we prioritize the documentation through the patent system to ascribe credit

I think GP is probably pattern matching a bit too much. It's plausibly connected, but I doubt it.
Wow, this really puts into perspective how much work has to be put into even the most insignificant details of getting Linux to run on (Apple Silicon) Macs. I say "insignificant" with all due respect because, well, the built-in microphone sees very little use (except if you have forgotten your headset).

The most malicious behavior I can directly think of is someone searching the data for a targeted purpose and not caring about false positives, like targeted advertisement for health treatments with non-zero risk of side effects. DNA has always had this air of being infallible proof.
> For speakers they modify what gets sent to the hardware so that the actual output then does match the frequency response

As I understand, this is not a magic pill: it probably won't help to pull out frequencies which are suppressed by 30-40 dB and I assume that if the frequency response graph is too wavy (lot of narrow peaks and dips), it won't help either.

Also, you need to have calibration files to use this method, right?

There is no relevant contradiction. The entire New Testament is Jesus preaching love and forgiveness, Jesus practicing love and forgiveness - and not just to his followers - and explicit condemnation of wealth and instructing his followers to care for others.

Anyone who takes that message and instead lobbies to destroy healthcare and welfare and to push hate and attack anyone who doesn't agree with them - and anyone who votes for the party of politicians that has been practicing and preaching that for decades - is not a Christian regardless of how they spend their Sundays.

I’ve been rebuilding the meagre Latin I picked up in college in the 80s and I’ve found late Latin to be a bit helpful for building confidence—Beeson’s Primer of Medieval Latin and the Vulgate Bible have been my primary texts of late. With the Vulgate, I’ve been painstakingly translating by hand every verse (I’m not as diligent as I should be so I’m only up to Genesis 17 despite a few years of doing this in fits and starts). With Beeson, I reached the point where by the time I got to the poetry section, I was relying much less on wiktionary (which is handy because you can find most words by their inflected forms rather than having to know the correct dictionary form). I doubt I’ll ever be fully fluent, but I’ve got a pretty solid reading knowledge these days.

I've been interested in pain and pain management since having a drunk driver crash into us. I've even moderated a panel of doctors who specialized in pain.

How people deal with acute vs chronic pain can be very different. One doctor blew my mind when he described chronic pain as a spousal relationship. It's something you have to live with and work with. You can't ignore or bully pain.

Also men and women deal with pain differently. Most men describe a heart attack as the worst pain ever. Many women have ignored heart attacks because it wasn't as bad as their period pains. Women also describe kidney stones as worse than childbirth.

I had a friend go in to the doctor and described the pain as a 5. But the doctor noticed they were sweating because of pain, which made it at least a 7 in their experience as that was an involuntary physical response.

I've been to places not described on the pain scale, when I was recovering from surgery the IV drop ran out, the pain was so bad my spirit phased out of my body slightly so I was less aware of the pain but could still see the nurse running around trying to load another bag into the IV dispenser.

I can tell when a bad storm is coming because it feels like water running down the inside of my leg bone, like runoff down a gutter.
Some days the pain is dull and I can get irritated easily, but some over the counter pain medications are helpful. So if I am going to the doctor I've already exhausted the available options, so pain is high priority to me as I can't do things.

I have also noticed that men's pain is taken more seriously than women's pain. Redheads get less pain relief and if you are person of color, especially a female, doctors take your pain least seriously. It makes me wonder how they actually teach in med school for that to happen.

Describing the pain in terms of what work I can and cannot do gets more attention than anything else.
Purely selfish pursuits lose their allure when you have the ability to just do them (once the initial rush of being able to do them runs out).

"US Defense" is a euphemism for waging foreign wars. America would be better off if Europe kicked America out of all the military bases in Europe, thereby making it more difficult for America to wage such wars.

> The easy answer is that the piano is not the "reference" instrument.

The question make sense without ever thinking about piano. The question is: how come the notes named only by letters (without any accidentals) form a major scale, and yet the note A is not the first note (or tonic) of that scale.

The answer is probably related to the fact that those notes also form other scales (seven of them - seven diatonic modes, one of which corresponds to major scale), and it's only relatively recently that the major scale took a central role in music theory.
1. A hardware key usually has no clock. But software, such as GPG, can set and check they key expiration date, and complain. For git, you usually have to have an SSH key for access, and a GPG key to sign commits, even though signing with an SSH key is possible by now. I keep signing with GPG, so that if my ssh key is rotated or revoked, my commits still remain signed.

2. If you lose a key, whatever its nature, you unenroll it where you have it enrolled. You better have some one-time codes set up, or another alternative method, like a password login to your VM via console.

What I remember is that there were social reasons, market reasons, and technical reasons that MTS didn't pan out. First, Microsoft was out-of-fashion in startup culture. Second, the exploding internet boom had little demand for distributed transactions. Third, COM was a proprietary technology that relied on C++ at a time when developers were flocking to easier memory-managed languages like Java, which was or at least was perceived to be more "open." I'm sure there were other reasons, but that's what looms in my mind.
