None of that makes sense as fighting China. Especially not the Greenland thing. He makes China looks good which is quite a feat.

> He wants to choke them with tariffs (and now has leverage to get the rest of the world to join in).

Like, how? You expect the countries to put tariff on Chine, risk to have tariffs put on them by both China and unpredictable USA? He is loosing leverage here rather then gaining it.

> They want Greenland to defend the North

Right now, Greenland sees America as the biggest threat to protect against. They even refused to talk to Vance on his visit.

> He wants to onshore manufacturing as a strategic wartime capability

That is inconsistent with tariffs on everything. If this was the goal, he would had targeted tariffs to ease manufacturing. It would exclude materials for example. It was NOT be calculated as ratio of trade deficit.

And this is also inconsistent with using tariffs as a leverage in negotiations which was your other point. This would require stability and companies being confident the policy wont change in the next few years. In reality, they dont know what will happen tomorrow.
I think what they mean is that the fundamental question is IF any intelligence can really break out of its confined area of expertise and control a substantial amount of the world just by excelling in highly verifiable domains. Because a lot of what humans need to do is decisions based on expertise and judgement that in systems follows no transparent rules.

I guess it’s the age old question if we really know what we are doing („experience“) or we just tumble through life and it works out because the overall system of humans interacting with each other is big enough. The current state of world politics makes be think it’s the latter.
If Indiana Jones (for example) defines a genre, then 'generic' will produce Indiana Jones.
Honestly at this point, MAGA folks are genuinely bad people.
50 words is smaller than your comment... Do you really only speak this?
The jump in productivity we had with the world wide web and search engines was several orders of magnitude higher than what you have right now with LLMs, yet I don't remember a single person back in the 2000s calling Google "the greatest tool in human history".

Almost sixty years after ELIZA, chatbots seem to still produce a very strong emotional reaction to some folks.
I also spent some time evaluating a lot of open fonts and I agree that most of them have flaws, especially when it comes to kerning. The exceptions are fonts that have been developed for and are used by very large organizations, such as Public Sans (US government), IBM Plex Sans, Source Sans (Abobe), etc. Then the quality is equivalent (or even better) than what you get from proprietary fonts.

They had to, in order to comply with the Swiss law. The discussion you linked links to an official Proton page, so at least they're honest about the data they must disclose
Natur is actually designed really well, it’s a just a shitty joke for our race and the ones who have to give way for nature to run its course.

U.S is giving tariffs to everyone, though...
I do like Fira, and definitely one of the few exceptions. Although I wish the lowercase 'y' were a bit less busy, with the left stroke completely joining into the right descender rather than how it is now, with a little bit sticking out. Additionally I must point out that Fira itself is a derivative (I'd say 'clone') of FF Meta, which was originally commissioned by Deutsche Bundespost.

Another commenter pointed out IBM Plex which I also like, but I have a bit of an issue with the lowercase Roman 'a' glyph, where the bottom curve into the vertical is a tad bit too thin for my liking.

As a rule of thumb, if a company has paid a foundry a handsome sum of money for its corporate branding and wants to use the resultant typeface everywhere, the result is usually quite decent, and has what I call 'character without being excessively fancy'.

Some feedback: you really need to put a features list somewhere prominent and tell people what distinguishes your webserver from others in terms of its capabilities.

Also, your FAQ really makes you come off as incredibly patronizing.
Interesting, what was bad about your Redis experience on Coolify? I was just about to do the same for a personal project.
I still install brand new computers with serial ports! Dell sells us OptiPlex towers and we occasionally order them with a serial card to connect to legacy scientific instruments.
Having just been on safari staying mostly at 4 and 5 star places, I gotta admit that the one night out at a local pub still has its place when traveling.
I don't know.

I worked at DG for 13 years (albeit a few years post-Eagle) and I've never heard anything along those lines. And the company liked the book as far as I can tell--they regularly gave copies away at the executive briefing center.

I have no doubt there were embellishments for the purposes of narrative. And people always have different takes on all sort of things that they participated in at a company. But I've never heard it was substantially inaccurate and I knew a number of people in "the book" pretty well.
You're definitely not alone.

In my case it's somewhat of a learned behavior, a lot of my favorite video games make me violently motion sick so over time I just stopped playing them.

Most TV is pretty boring IMO. There's always exceptions but it's not something I find myself regularly being drawn to.

I'm always tinkering on something (a longtime favorite is gardening), and I'm pretty sure I'll always be tinkering until the day I die. Some of us are just wired differently.

Can be a little difficult to connect with the mainstream folks though. I pretty much live in a different world.
Which part specifically are you asking about? To summarize as of now:

- the code in the repo (https://github.com/akavel/clawtype) is under AGPL-v3, so you're totally fine to iterate on this part, as long as you keep the license and it terms - which means you should be able to sell it all fine, just also providing users the iterated code, so they can further iterate on their own;
- the 3d-printed parts & structure design (https://www.printables.com/model/1231156-clawtype) is CC BY-NC-SA, so you can iterate on that part as long as you keep those terms - let me know (https://merveilles.town/@akavel/) if you want to negotiate the terms with the designer, or just reach out to him by yourself;
- in the US, some aspects of the design are covered by A PATENT by the original inventor & designer John W. McKown, as explained on the original Chordite page: https://web.archive.org/web/20220201061603/http://chordite.c... with an exception for personal use - the patent is http://www.google.com/patents/US6429854 - though IIUC the google page seems to claim it's expired, whatever this means in the legal system, and google claim IANAL on the page too.
- or do you mean some other aspect?
@2) I don't see Putin behind this. The current situation is most likely a death stroke for Russia. Russia's war economy was already on the brink and running on borrowed time. With oil prices cratering that's it.
> Hell, it isn't even an idea but look what happened to Elon Musk. Liberals loved him until he started publicly sharing some conservative ideas, which made them waffle a bit, and now they absolutely loathe him.

I mean, this one is just being reasonable. Liberals were for a person X as long as that person pretended to favor the same policies and ideologies. When that person turn out to be conservative, well actually far right political player, they changed opinion on the person. Both Trump and Musk dabbling in the democratic politics and then being rejected by them is a sign of more consistent politics of that side.

When liberals were antivaxxers, issue was not much political. And democrats and other liberals largely criticized these. Politically, liberal antivaxers were minority that lost the political fight in their own party. They were not putting in anti-vaccers into power.
Are you being facetious? Just asking, because this is literally the plot of the Matrix.
As we are currently seeing in international relations, the "international rule based order" needs someone to impose order, otherwise it won't work. Putin called the bluff and he seems to win that hand.

So as in all the other areas of life, rules are for the small, puny ones, not for the big or well-connected ones. If you are big or have big supporters, might makes right. Morals and rules are then only relevant for propaganda, not for actual behavior
There are already regulations around this. There are new ones coming. It's very easy to test for compliance.
I've you've never been on the pointy end of pricy service monopolies you're not paying attention.

Competition works best for commodities. How is your electricity bill looking? And electricity is a fabulously strong example of a commodity. Have you noticed petrol prices are not that competitive even though petrol is a commodity?

3/4 of my leccy bill is a distribution cost: I think it is a fixed cost that any electricity supplier I choose oncharges. I can choose different suppliers that will make a small difference to the other variable kWh by time charges but it's not real competition. I could buy solar and batteries - but the initial investment and payback period is so long that it would cost me far more than the distribution cost I currently pay.
They were mistaken or maybe referring to an older version, because I definitively use rolling zero downtime updates from commits

This executive action blames forest management for increased wildfires, but the IPCC has predicted this exact problem for decades. Unsurprisingly, climate change is not mentioned.

I guess we’re to believe that forests are being poorly managed by every government in every country around the world?
That's why making each message costly is the way to go - it's not discriminating on what or how sent the message, it just forces sending to scale no faster than actual service of the business. A text or two per delivery or a doctors' visit is still a rounding error compared to costs of the transaction itself, but casually spamming hundreds of thousands of people becomes a noticeable cost.

I don’t live in the states, so I gotta say, Trump term 1, was pretty uneventful for us except for some silly handshakes.

I agree the keming is off in places, like the alternates.
I think the idea with LLMs leading to AGI is more like:

Natural language is a fuzzy context aware state machine of some sorts that can theoretically represent any arbitrarily complex state in the outside world given enough high quality text.

And by reiterating and extrapolating the rules found in human communication an AI could by the sheer ability to simulate infinitely long discussions discover new things, given the ability to independently verify outcomes.

> Infection is a big problem.

Sanitation is the answer.

> ( ~15% versus ~7% ) - and that's in an advanced economy.

There were 1,507 infection related child deaths between 1 April 2019 and 31 March 2022 (3 years); an overall rate of 4.20 deaths per 100,000 children per year. This was the equivalent of 15% of all child deaths in this period.

Overall, in 90% of the infection related deaths the child had an underlying health condition, including 68% who had a life-limiting condition (e.g., cerebral palsy), and 22% who had another underlying health condition (including prematurity). 10% had no underlying health condition.
In children where infection provided a complete and sufficient explanation of death, nearly a quarter (24%) had no underlying health condition.

They replaced most of the documentation with C++ examples, given the benefits the language has over C, that was already obvious to me in 1993.

As for the language extensions required by CUDA C, it is kind of interesting that clang and GCC extensions are praised and people keep referring to them as C, while everyone else's extensions are never C or C++ under the same measure.

With OpenAAC directives, an HPC industry standard, you can make use of plain old C11 with traditional #pragmas,

We have hot pluggable I2C at home. Every HDMI port (and pretty much every DP port with a passive adapter) has I2C on the DDC pins. The port also provides 5V 50mA so your MCU doesn't need external power. Example: https://www.reddit.com/r/raspberry_pi/comments/ws1ale/i2c_on...

Thanks for sharing this.

I definitely didn't intend to endorse this view. I think if it was really true that they had purposely misled him and he'd taken it all in then there would be some major technical 'howlers' in the book. As far as I can see there aren't any.

Maybe they didn't like the way they were portrayed - which I can understand - and there was a collective, organic 'well of course it wasn't like that' soon after the book was published.

An opening article lie! For our hosts would be much more appropriate. Why does a guest care about how many nights a place is going to sell in the next few months?

This assumes value for guests is how much money the property they stay at makes, when it obviously isn't that.

I dont think any ai can ever reproduce the unspoken interpersonal, intrapersonal stuff that goes on, out of awareness, during the interactions between human beings.

I am thinking projections, projective identification, introjects and transference and counter transference as examples. You have to be human to know, feel, sense and experience these things.

No amount of coding trickery will duplicate the vast ocean of human experience

Picture a radio playing the song and imagine yourself slowly turning down the volume and the song getting quieter until it has gone.

This used to work for me but over time I’ve had to extend it with imagining switching the radio off at the end, unplugging it, and chucking it out the window so it smashes on the ground so no chance of it turning back on!
Oh, non-Latin type faces are an entirely different ball-game, don't even get me started. I have massive respect for CJK type designers; there are thousands of glyphs! Designing a good new typeface must take years, if not decades.

A lot of “hypocracy” is nothing of the sort. Selectively using the rules that are derived from a moral concern is not hypocracy, unless they argued for those rules on those moral grounds. Chinese companies aren't known for their fervant declarations of support for american values, and so it is entirely fair that they play according to the rules-as-written. Now, if they're espousing communist ideals for all people, _then_ there would be a valid claim of hypocracy, but the arguments I see are basically never this nuanced.

Which is not to say that there is no hypocracy these days, just that the word is so frequently misapplied that its use is little more than a signal of emotional valence.
That part is implementation-specific. Traditional RSA uses multiplication of prime numbers, Wikipedia's explanation is decent: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/RSA_cryptosystem

In modern times other implementations are used such as elliptic curves (which have better performance, especially important for battery powered devices like phones) or lattice based cryptography (which are not vulnerable to quantum computers)

Every non-gaming-focused Linux distribution offers a checkbox for encryption during the OS install process. Many of the gaming-oriented ones like Bazzite do too.

When checked it uses cryptsetup and the full disk is encrypted.
There is most likely a deeper plan behind it. It's not 4D chess, or if it is, it's played by people who don't really understand it themselves, but there is a goal behind it: ending Reagan's neoliberal economic world order.

That in itself is not a bad goal, and it's one I agree with; neoliberalism has increased inequality, put excessive wealth in the hands of a tiny elite, and looted nations of their infrastructure and social structures. Neoliberalism should die.

The problem is that Trump's economic advisors seem to want a new world order where the rest of the world is even more subservient to the US, and they think they can enforce that by cutting everybody off from the US economy, and they'll only be let back if they accept America's new terms.

The problem is of course that the US actually cut itself off from the rest of the world, and as big and powerful as the US is, it's not more powerful than the rest of the world put together. It's not the rest of the world that will come crawling back; it's the US. After having squandered its 80 year dominant position in the global economy.
for me i figured out it’s about the body. it’s ok to be lifted up from the body into the thinking mind but i “owe” my body to spend some time there as well.

sometimes all it takes is sitting 20min in the morning just observing sensations in my body, and saying good morning to various organs haha. sounds silly but creates a solid foundation for my day.

The paper Hayek wrote is titled The Use of Knowledge in Society. I Pencil is meant to be a simplified and poeticized example of Hayek's evaluation by Leonard Read.
I don't have a program at the moment. The layout I currently use is in the codebase, starts here: https://github.com/akavel/clawtype/blob/96980f68427eb1089112... Personally, I just edited this layout description into a more compact form and printed it on a sheet of A4 paper as a cheatsheet. I do intend to make this aspect more scriptable, but didn't get to it yet.

For learning, I personally just try to slowly code simple hobby things in vim, with the cheatsheet in the other hand... I tried to make the layout relatively intuitive wherever I could. I also patiently went through all the possible combinations of presses, and tried to group them into categories of easy<->medium<->hard<->impossible, then tried to put esp. the more frequently used keys on the easier combinations/chords.
Every time I thought about buying a font, I've been put off by the terms.

A few tens of euro for desktop use? Sure. But when that font's supposed to be part of an organisation's identity, I'll need it for web use as well, which can be 10x as expensive. And when I want to e.g. generate invoices, that's even more money again, yearly.

I only work with small clients on things like this, but I've never had anyone willing to pay the money. Free fonts might not be as good, but that's not relevant for me, because paid fonts just aren't an option.
I used Tcl briefly to build an interface way back with Tcl/Tk, and it is a terrible language. "Everything is a string" is not what you want in a solid programming environment for larger projects. It's a LISP-like gimmick, but without the advantages of LISP.

That said, plain JS is not a good fit for larger projects, either. It really needs TypeScript for that. But it does have some very fast engines.
It's not wearable though, no? or is it?

I like the way you step through the logic.

My only suggestion would be to include a raycasted scene because you can really grab a wide(r) audience (and I'd love to see how you get to voxel scenes!).

Either way - thanks for adding a neat new resource for this algorithm and I'm definitely taking notes Re your clean presentation of the details!
