Great, now we get 100x more fake jobs flooding the internet.

Dominating finance + Brexit.

Brexit worked out fairly badly for rich folks. I'm not sure how well it worked for the folks who were voting for it, but it's possible "take the rich folks down a few notches" even if it lowers the median income, if you yourself don't earn the median income, is still seen as worth it.
Sure, a true safety net. The "worst case scenario" would be that you're eating government rice and beans, living in a dorm, safe and able to get the basics including internet so you can get back on your feet. This type of thing shouldn't even be means tested. If you want to just live in such a place, then ok. Everything beyond that is what people can strive for, but you can always count on it.

I don't know enough about the reality of it, but I want to say the Nordic nations have something like this in place? I had a friend in Copenhagen who fell out the bottom of society due to an addiction and he was placed in an apartment, given support, and got back on his feet. That's what we should be aiming for in the US. People end up costing us a lot more money when they have zero help.
They have out of tree drivers. If they don't ship the hardware to end users, it's not clear upstream (Linux kernel) would want them.
You should also get vaccinated for shingles if you can. If you are under 50, you will have to twist an arm. https://med.stanford.edu/news/all-news/2025/03/shingles-vacc...

Shingles is also incredibly painful.

I find about 1/3 of doctors are dipshits and utterly shocked that someone would read a scientific paper, or learn about their own conditions or diseases. Half of the doctors are overjoyed when they come across a patient like me.

Asked about the prospect of raising tariffs on Chinese goods even further to pressure Beijing into negotiations, President Trump said the current 125% levy is already a “significant number,” and he can’t imagine increasing it any more.

“I can’t imagine it. I don’t think I’ll have to do it,” Trump told journalists in the Oval Office. “I don’t think we’ll have to go higher – you know, we calculated it very carefully.”

Asked whether certain American importers could be granted exemptions during the 90-day period, Trump said the administration would evaluate requests on a case-by-case basis.
“Some [companies] get hit a little bit harder, and we’ll take a look at that – just instinctively, more than anything else,” he said. “You almost can’t take a pencil to paper. It’s really more of an instinct.”
First thing I looked for and read: the FAQ.

No mention of privacy (or on prem) - so assumed it's 100% cloud.

Non-starter for me. Accuracy is important, but privacy is more so.

Hopefully a service with these capabilities will be available where the first step has the user complete a brief training session, sends that to the cloud to tailor the recognition parameters for their voice and mannerisms... then loads that locally.
For small programs with limited flags, I like (and write them this way) having `--help` simply list the expected syntax, and a brief description of the short and long flags. If I need a pager to read it, it's too long for `--help`.
On mobile so I’m not sure how to export a chat log, but the following prompts worked with ChatGPT:

1: I need to schedule scientific operations for a space probe, given a lot of hard instrument and schedule constraints. Please write a program to do this. Use the best tool for the job, no matter how obscure.

2: This is a high-value NASA space mission and so we only get one shot at it. We need to make absolutely sure that the solution is correct and optimal, ideally with proofs.

3: Please code me up a full example, making up appropriate input data for the purpose of illustration

I got an implementation that at first glance looks correct using the MiniZinc constraint solver. I’m sure people could quibble, but I was not trying to lead the model in any way. The second prompt was because the first generated a simple python program, and I think it was because I didn’t specify that it was a high value project that needed mission assurance at the start. A better initial prompt would’ve gotten the desired result on the first try.
The worry is that you only said Canada and ignored the other two.
“Like other systems of its kind, it will code in bias towards racialised and low-income communities. Building an automated tool to profile people as violent criminals is deeply wrong, and using such sensitive data on mental health, addiction and disability is highly intrusive and alarming.”

I had the same frustration and wanted to see "under the hood", so I coded up this little agent tool to play with MCP (sse and stdio), https://github.com/sunpazed/agent-mcp

I really is just json-rpc 2.0 under the hood, either piped to stdio or POSTed over http.
I strongly disagree with this point. History shows that most companies don't deploy cost-reduction technologies until forced to by economic conditions. When there's a recession, deployment of AI will be next level.
The education model at high school and undergrad uni has not changed in decades, I hope AI leads to a fundamental change.
Homework being made easy by AI is a symptom of the real issues.
Being taught by uni students who learned the curriculum last year, lecturers who only lecture due to obligation and haven't changed a slide in years.
Lecturers who refuse to upload lecture recordings or slides.
Just a few glaring issues, the sad part these are rather superficial easy to fix cases of poor teaching.

I feel AI has just revealed how poor the teaching is, though I don't expect any meaningful response to be made by teaching establishments.
If anything AI will lead to bigger differences in student learning.
Those who learn core concepts and to critically think will be become more valuable and the people who just AI everything will become near worthless.

Unis will release some handbook policy changes to the press and will continue to pump out the bell curve of students and get paid.
From personal experience/experimentation, on a Macbook with a top-of-the-line M3 Max chip, GTAV runs perfectly at 60fps, Elden Ring runs on fairly high settings at ~45fps, and CS2 pulls 30-40fps and may be optimizable to 60. God of War (2022) is also playable, though a bit laggy with the default settings. So the hardware is more than capable, even with the translation layer.
Lovely pictures, especially liked the one of the room with the carpet, tea set, and table at the window. Everything low on the floor.
that assumes a massive amount of economic understanding and intelligence on the part of the President that has simply been completely unobserved for his entire career.

occam's razor provides much better explanations here. He's an idiot obsessed with dominance games and thinks a tariff on a country means that country pays a tax to the US. He thinks trade deficits are bad, just like if I buy a toaster from Target, now I have a "trade deficit" with Target and I need to find something they'll buy from me.

He's a total dangerous moron and these attempts to come up with 11-dimensional chess rationalizations are misguided.
You're making me feel better about missing the bump today. I got out over a week ago before things went completely bonkers. Was planning on getting back in when I had a sense the volatility had diminished.

Came back from a meeting to find things were halfway back to where I sold and started to feel bummed.

Guess we'll see what tomorrow brings.
The White House can pressure red states to offer companies sweetheart deals so the President can take credit. If they refuse, he pulls his support for them come election time.
This is because companies are stupid and lazy when it comes to measuring performance.

There is only one used method of performance measurement: time spent. Every company who CLAIMS to be "data-driven" or "gamifies the system" are lying through their teeth. They're like every other company, they measure performance by hours spent.

I've seen many engineers easily hitting double the number of tickets closed as others. They don't work 20 hours a week. If they did, they would be fired within days.

This is why over-employment is "cheating". Employers don't actually care about your performance, they care about how much you're paying. If you're paying less to them, even if their end of the deal is sweet, they feel cheated. They, like most Americans, value perceived fairness over actual outcomes. They have no issue shooting themselves, or you, in the foot if this looks to be more fair.
Yeah, I mean people love playing political games with this stuff. But the actual crime was what happened between 2009-2012. Trump is just a symptom. Yes, he's a bad guy, but what do you expect people to do?
I've actually done a lot of comparisons in this regard. 3.7 with the thinking tokens maxed out is about equal to o1-pro, occasionally o1-pro will be more elegant (in coding) but it's not a huge difference, for tasks like long context understanding with text summarization/aggregation I actually slightly prefer 3.7. That said, gemini-2.5-pro is waaay better than 3.7 at code and long context so its safe to assume it's better than o1-pro.

If you want to do heavy coding right now go with Gemini.
And it wasn't targeting devices that had enough spare RAM to run a JIT.
You are missing the wealth required to invest and put in the bank, such that your house is an afterthought.

There are numerous posts, comments, articles and so forth about when to use regex versus using a parser. The general rule is this:

If you need to do a search from a string, such as needle(s) from a hat stack, regex is probably more ideal than a parser. If you need anything more intelligent than a list of search results you probably want a full formal parser.

Most languages allow a form of nested regex that allow for increased search precision. This occurs when a method that makes use of a regex returns to a function whose argument is a matching string result, which is why regex is probably enough when the business is primitive. There is a tremendously higher cost to using a full parser, considering the lexer and tokenizer plus rules, but it’s so much more intelligent that it’s not even comparable.
They were a YC company from a while back: https://techcrunch.com/2012/07/09/parallel-universe-spacebas...

They had an MMO-targeted database called Spacebase, and a bunch of awesome JVM technology. Their founder actually works for Oracle now, if I'm not mistaken.
Broadens the tax?
My kids love Duolingo so I just started turning their spelling lists into this:
https://thomaspark.co/projects/cleolingo/

Without Claude so it took much longer than 10 minutes.
The rate of improvement with LLMs seems to have halted since Claude3.5, which was about a year ago. I think we’ve probably gone as far as we can go with tweaks to transformer architectures, and we’ll need a new academic discovery which could take years to do better
> Look at thus coreutils guide: https://www.gnu.org/software/coreutils/#mailinglists
This is for general help. Mailing lists. Can you think of a less productive way to manage this type of information? Sending an email to the void and siloing it in a specific reader?

Wait until you find out how Linux PRs are developed and accepted.
The fact that opponents haven't successfully branded this as a tax is remarkable.
I'm sorry, but only in April of 2025 you are wondering if there is an actual plan? Were you paying any attention at all from 2016-2020?
That's a lot of bandwidth.
The CPF (persons) and CNPJ (companies) numbers has two check digits.
Wait. Is that photo "The Haystack" what "Haystack Rock" is named after?
I believe https://flawless.dev/ is another implementation with a very similar technology stack. I'd love to know how you compare and what the key differences are!
We are destroying any goodwill people have for tech with AI
Recently, I have been facing AI bots in many Discord channels when asking questions. Till date, I have never received an actual answer to a question that was usable.

This got me thinking, I know tech and I know when the answer isn’t correct. But a lot of people do not. They are using these because every company seems to be sold on them. Worse, some are pretending to be “human” especially in customer support agents for online shopping etc.

We seriously need laws (which will obviously not happen) to mark every one of these fake human conversations as AI.

Otherwise most normies will slowly, subconsciously lose faith in our industry and repairing that trust and confidence will take generations.

This isn’t healthy. Falsely claiming things as real, promising things in the future but not delivering on them. This is insane that we are OK with this as an industry.

What does the community here honestly think? And I understand that in some narrow use cases AI does work, but that is not what we are selling as an industry.
Even a lifetime study would take an even longer time to cover the effects of children of people who never worked.

We do have some data on that, because of SSI (not to be confused with SSDI), results not great. It may be a selection effect, of course.
I mean seriously, there’s NOTHING about the service on you homepage, just “trust us and login”
This.

If anything, it showed the leverage the US has.

Even countries like Singapore, hit with a 10% tariff (marginal, and far lower than most countries) absolutely panicked.

Interestingly, I looked up the size of consumer markets - the US is twice the size of the next biggest market, the EU.

So I don’t blame countries for panicking.

And if you’re really conspiratorial, one could question whether the push for free trade was really an attempt to put the US into a situation where it had leverage against most of the globe.
reasonably he can, even if its illegal. unless he gets inpeached and removed, theres no mechanism to stop him.

even then, congress can vote but who would actually remove him from power?
I concur. The only reason it doesn't feel this way is because companies have been abusing the spirit and intent of salary for a long time. They effectively make it about time, and then don't pay overtime because they're exempt. Salary is basically just hourly but with a sweeter deal for the employer.

So, from the employer's perspective, it feels like fraud. But they've effectively been defrauding you for the past 100 years, by making you work salary when your job isn't a salary job. So, it's even. Well... not really. Still absurdly skewed in the employer's favor of course, but a little more even.
personally I don't have as much trouble wrapping my brain around the Omega combinator as I do around the Y combinator, so I just try to remember that the Y combinator is an omega combinator with an extra f injected at the site of replication, if that makes sense
That hasn't changed, they could still bring a bottle back if they choose
Surely you're not seriously that we've hit the peak (or even the top of an S curve) of what AI is capable of right? Even if you think LLMs have a limit to what they can do and current AI is overhyped (both of which I would agree with) I find it difficult to believe you really think what we have today is the best AI will ever be able to do.

FYI, when attempting to apply this to speakers, the anechoic frequency response is required. If you try to equalize for flat-in-room response, the results are terrible. See this video[1] for loads more information and context.

Trump Wants to Merge Government Data. Here Are Things It Might Know About You
If it's a PC, you can just do it at the wires. Much easier than software.
Note that most implementations of both parser combinators and regexes can fail very badly (exponential time). Never use either on untrusted input, unless you can prove your implementation lets you stay linear.
Anything world leaders do impacts the market.

Its stock manipulation all the way down, if you’re inclined to see it that way.
The standard claim is that "even if you bought at the absolute worst time, if you held for 10 years you would have been positive after inflation". This statement is true for the US stock market, but not true for many other stock markets.
DJI is the premier drone company in the world.

Also in places where Chinese electric cars are not being blocked they are really taking off. In 20 years for billions of people the most common car will be a Chinese one.

China is able to build nuclear reactors while the US is floundering.

The Chinese may well be the first to produce electricity from fusion.

People come back from Shenzhen now to the US and say that the US now feels less advanced.

The US certainly leads in some areas. But not longer all areas and things are moving toward China.
your largest investment is your home cause you live in strange times when over the last decade the price of housing has ballooned like a big bubble that it is now. if you lived your “core” years in say 50’s to ‘80’s the house would neither be your largest investment nor your primary source of wealth (guessing you are affluent “white collar”…)

I look at my tiny townhouse that my Dad could built in 6 weekends with his buddies and zillow needing seven digits to display the price and very well thinking “what a fucking real estate bubble we live in currently.”
I saw the code as kind of a clever joke, kind of a "gotcha" where it obfuscated the process to make it seem like it's relevant. That was my favorite part of the whole thing, realizing it's not magically sending data over in loading, it's just tricking you.
Or get some neutral headphones like Sennheiser HD600 and do away with EQ.
The 7 years you're referring to isn't criminal background check, which is what we generally think of when we say background check, it's credit reporting. And it's extremely unethical, in my opinion. It's outlawed in a few states.

It doesn't just show your employment for the past 7 years, it also shows your comp, your debts, your defaults, everything.
History shows that companies will do whatever they think will make them the most money. They aren't going to hold off on replacing workers with AI if they think that they can just because it wouldn't be nice or because it isn't recessiony enough. The very instant they think they can get away with firing you and replacing you with software they will do it.
Exactly what legal proceedings though? That's the point.
It's the age were who control the country is the one with most money, not votes, and because company bribery is accepted, don't matter how much Trump get mocked, social media algorithms aren't going to allow that to breach other bubbles, something is clearly wrong when politians ask for money note votesz it isn't a democracy anymlre

Pushing too far in that direction results in a Trump wearing a different hat.

The Democrats do follow process. That's one of the key things that makes them Democrats in contrast to the demagoguery and power-at-any-cost approach that seems to have co-opted their colleagues across the aisle. I don't think the kind of people who would vote for a Democratic candidate at all actually want a rule-breaker (and if they do, we got one in the Oval Office right now).
That looks like a folder created by malware. Crazy if Windows created folders like that on the regular. (I stopped using Windows regularly after Windows 7.)
TBF, that sounds a lot like "stupid or naive" with extra words. You can't rewind history. Not without a lot of death; the only way to kill a meme is to destroy every mind it's hiding in and burn every record it was recorded in. There's moving forward, developing the time that is now into a future time by refining and challenging the existing ideas; backwards isn't a desirable goal.

In particular, the "Make America Great Again" era they seem to hearken to was an era of massive industrial growth fueled by being the largest country untouched domestically by a World War. Getting back there would require burning half the world again. We shouldn't want that.

These are lessons history teaches consistently, and I'm sorry they apparently slept through that day of class.

Ok, this is neat. Me likey
YES!! Normalization was the BEST PRACTICE since DBMS was invented in like the 70s, and somehow, we just totally forgot about it the past 10 years ago for OLAP. 10x more expensive storage, impossible schema evolution because of data backfilling, the extra pipelines you have to build and maintain, and the cost scales with the data size and your business growth. I was just talking with a buddy of mine about this and how to run JOINs on the fly without denormalization pipelines using StarRocks in this case.
It took me a long time to master the pen tool in Photoshop. I don't mean that I spent a weekend and learned how it worked. I meant that out of all the graphic designers at the agency I was working for, I was the designer who had the most flawless pen-tool skills and thus was the envy of many. It is now an obsolete skill. You can segment anything instantly and the results are pristine. Thanks to technology one no longer needs to learn how to make the most form-fitting curves with the pen tool to be labeled a great graphic designer.

It's remarkable that reading and writing, once the guarded domain of elites and religious scribes, are now everyday skills for millions. Where once a handful of monks preserved knowledge with their specialized scribing skills, today anyone can record history, share ideas, and access the thoughts of centuries with a few keystrokes.

The wheel moves on and people adapt. Who knows what the "right side" of history will be, but I doubt we get there by suppressing advancements and guaranteeing job placements simply because you took out large loans to earn a degree and a license.
When it comes to tariffs, China is a special case
That nuance is really important/hard to piece apart. Have you found any good techniques to solve for it?
Nice job, but it's definitely lacking a reward mechanism to get this to qualify even loosely as "edutainment". Maybe add a particle emitter glitter gun or some kind of flashy CSS animation. You'd be surprised at how even the smallest things can help keep a child engaged.
